CGI 3D Animated Short: 'BIG BOOM' - by Brian Watson | TheCGBros

TheCGBros Presents "BIG BOOM" - A film that explores the questions of existence through the eye of a lonely service robot. It was definitely inspired by things like Wall-E and Fallout 4, however Big Boom has it"s own unique voice as well. Perhaps a bit bleaker than it"s influences (or optimistic depending on how you interpret the ending).

The attention to detail is off the charts! As Jimbo moves around, the separate segments move in realistic fashion in relation to one another. The rising despair in Jimbo's voice as he knows something is wrong, but doesn't know what, and isn't able to piece it together. The colors, and style are out of the park! Thank you for this incredible video!

[charlesjackson]

Almost had me in tears. I felt like with his reserve of power, Jimbo was on his way to find Bob. And Bob was on his way to find Jimbo. I truly hope they meet so they can find an alternate source of power and spend the rest of their lives together. And if that's not possible, to at least spend the last hours of their power together. Powerful film! Congrats to all the people who created this.

[LongDono]

I was highly expecting Bob to already be on his way and to see them meet in the distance as the credits rolled... amazing video.

[Bandicoot]

The relationship between Jimbo and A.D.A. is truly amazing! So heart-touching, it makes me sad that Jimbo saw her die down due to power starvation. 😥

[olegoleg]

Why have the humans ceased to exist, A D A?

We all make mistakes in the heat of battle, Jimbo

[mikashi]

I got to say, all CGI shorts in here are better than a 3 hours movie.

[DVincentW]

Bob has to clean bathrooms that haven't been used in 37 days.. and were probably cleaned 37 times already.

[ruakuu]

This needs a sequel, I have so many questions

[moonrakertv]

If I ever try leaving my girlfriend all I'll keep hearing is:
RETURN TO POST!
RETURN TO POST!
RETURN TO POST!
RETURN TO POST!

This could have happened in the Fallout universe, 50's themes, semi-(or more)sentient robots, Big, civilisation shattering Booms, wacky radiation effects...
This could actually even have happened in the (early) Mojave wasteland
I want this as a mod, imagine Jimbo as a companion

[strxwberri_milk]

“Ada, why is the sky green?”

That made me realize..

[roborobinson]

A.D.A Im going in sleep mode, wake me when part 2 of "Big Boom" Comes out, and if Bob calls

[thecollectorsconundrum]

I'm not going to be able to die happy unless I find out what happens to Jimbo

[Cyber_Horse_Studios]

This definitely needs a sequel. It really does.

[toaster]

"ADA?"
"Yes, Jimbo?"
"Why is the sky green?"

aw jeez

[gabriellockwood]

...
Still no Pt. 2

Jimbo, stay safe out there buddy, Bob's counting on you to find him.

In memory of A.D.A., Bugsy, and Mr. Dumpsy.

*~BOOM*

[qtcrusher]

That gas station remindes me of Red Rocket

[kingrat]

They were sentient. ADA says I love you to Jimbo as she dies...

[jimupp]

Poor jimbo. Genuinely concerned about the humans but knows he can't do anything about it. And bob is missing. I really love this short film.

[biskienator]

this is probably the best CGI "short" I have ever seen. the look, the textures and most importantly the story - incredible.
