We're gonna make a Lazzo short film?!
LAZZO?! Back?? In an all-new short film? Told ya it was a big one! I'm thrilled to accounce that the next new film from Octopunk follows your fav street kid, Lazzo Fratello, in an original new adventure. And this one's built and animated in Unreal Engine.
The short follows Lazzo on a quest to obtain a new arm for his android girlfriend Tayla, even if it means stealing one. It's funny, it's romantic, it's a lil bit heisty, and it also introduces in original new (not DBH) cyberpunk world for Lazzo to occupy - the canals and chaos of Neo-Charleston.
I'm also thrilled that NEIL NEWBON is also our Performance Capture Director! I've wanted to do motion capture for nearly a decade, and I could think of no one better to guide me and the actors thru the process. This really is gonna be the dream team.
MJ SLIDE (Livescreamers) comes aboard as my 1st AD/other half of my brain, and of course JJ returns as the voice, likeness, and performance capture of Lazzo - cause who else could fill those neon shoes!
Production begins early 2024, but if you want behind the scenes updates, be sure to check out my Patreon from now thru next year, and here on YouTube for production vlogs, BTS, etc.
