Hi guys this channel is for everyone who watched the movie already: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZXFaaQJb0c Let us know what you think. The director, Sean van Leijenhorst, is joining soon so you can ask questions 😃

Feel free to leave a review on our IMDB page: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8371922/ This will support the whole movie crew

When the infamous detective Dale Vandermeer wakes up in an ominous room without any recollection of his past, he soon finds himself part of a bizarre game or...

Question: should we watch the movie before playing the game or does the order not matter?

#

Honestly better than some recent horror movies with big budgets. And as for myself, I played the first chapter, watched the movie, and I'm about to play chapter 2. I guess it's better to be surprised by first experiencing the story by yourself.

I enjoyed the film. The quiet of the room made the sounds of Dale's activity noticeable, and the sound was very well executed. The audio fidelity and detail seemed markedly enhanced for things Dale did with his hands, and it perfectly pulled me in and tricked my brain into imagining how objects would feel in my hand as if I were Dale. Outstanding use of the power of suggestion there. I'm happy with the length. One minor complaint though: Dale seemed to have reasonable reactions to his environment so everything he did made sense with the exception of drinking the unknown red fluid. Maybe it's just me, but I felt like that was a bit careless and despite the brief hesitation he seemed too ready to put this particular strange fluid in his body. It goes against his modus operandi which I felt the director built up quite efficiently. As far as visuals go, I can't ask for better. This was spot on. 4.7/5

Hi everyone, the director of the short film here. Happy to answer or discuss the film with you - just leave your questions or message here and I'll answer as soon as I can. Sean

#

Cheers Tristan. It took a long time to get the script in a place where we felt Dale's reaction seemed believable - i.e. how a real person would behave when trapped in a room. In my mind Dale was already accustomed to the weirdness of the puzzles & logic of the room, and thus he put one and two together in order for him to drink the vial. Thanks in any case, glad you liked it and I (we) are always looking for arguments as room for improvement.

I don't really have any questions I just want to say the film was awesome and I loved all the hidden stuff to be used in the game :)

#

hi hello i just watched the film and IT'S SO GOOD OMG I LOVE THE DETAIL I LOVE THE ACTORS I LOVE EVERYTHING YES GOOD VERY GOOD

#

also @keen rampart how did you make the crow mask and how long did it take it looks really cool oof

keen rampart
#

Thank you! Glad you liked it 😃

#

The crow mask took the longest by far. It was made by a movie sculpture and made from foam + bird feathers. It took about two months to create.

proud skiff
#

yeah that's really long, it looks perfect tho so

willow grail
#

which scene was the most fun to shoot?

keen rampart
#

Oh easy, the forest scene. It was just magical to light up a square kilometer of forest, then filling it with fog using a huge smoke machine. This is also where we shot the major practical effect of Dale walking through the door into the forest, that was not a VFX shot but a real in-camera effect.

@keen rampart you're awesome, love the film

No you are! And thank you 😃

#

@keen rampart amazing job, everything is great, the story, the sounds, the scary parts, the actors... that corrupted soul in the mirror OOOOOH MY... breathtaking . I really loved it. Congratulations!

willow grail
#

Any comments on Maarten's and/or Robin's acting skills?

next hamlet
#

@steady fox they be talking about how they filmed stuff for the movie

keen rampart
#

ANOTHER THING, the photography of the whole thing is so perfect

#

@willow grail both Maarten and Robin were in rather uncomfortable full-body costumes, so their acting mostly revolved around me turning their bodies around and using them as puppets 😄 - in all seriousness, they were great collaborators throughout the whole process, not just the acting part.

#

@keen rampart Thank you so much - humbling to see all reactions so far!

#

That scene with dale between the soul and the crow in the painting i totally screenshooted

willow grail
#

@keen rampart would you consider collaborating with them again?

willow bolt
#

I looked up the actor who played dale. He played lord Gregoire in chronicles of narnia apparently

#

No clue who that is but still narnia s a good movie 🤣

I'm actually playing chapter 1 but didnt finish it yet, and watched the film while i paused the game, and it was worth it

#

It's very fun to watch, with all the references to the previous games and Paradox itself

Is there any way to get a copy of Johan's painting without the name of the game on it? I'd like to make a custom banner to use in my Steam library for the game.

@meager scroll
Until you can get a better version, here's a 800x456p with some basic copy-paste to hide the code
But you really have to look for it if you want to see it's been erased

Thank you everyone, all the responses so far on both the game and film mean the world to us.

Just here to say : THE MOVIE IS DAMN GREAT. And oh myyy, the intertwining with the game is just amazingly creative and smart ! You guys did such an amazing job. I played twice through both chapters, and watched the movie three times, and so many other times under a scope. The attention to details is so on point, am just sitting here in wonder :D

keen rampart
#

@main agate Thanks so much!

versed canyon
#

straight-up joined just to say A+ casting choice for dale vandermeer, damn

keen rampart
#

@versed canyon Thanks! We were extremely lucky to have found him, and he proved to be an incredibly dedicated and die-hard actor. Fun fact (mild story spoiler:)

In the scene where he trips and knocks himself out we were worried behind the scenes it would look fake, as we didn't want to hurt him. He asked us if he could trip once 'for real' to see how it looked like, and actually flipped backwards hitting head-first onto the ground. That single take was used in the film.

main agate
#

Damn !! That’s amazing ahah. Thanks for sharing !

willow grail
#

@keen rampart WOW that's why his fall looks so real! Was he ok after the fall? Btw the ckocking part was executed perfectly too!

keen rampart
#

@willow grail he was perfectly fine. It was the last shot of the day so he could sleep it off. 😄

willow grail
#

@keen rampart Also, I wanted to ask how did you guys film the part when the door knod floating in mid air?

keen rampart
#

@willow grail Somebody was holding the door knob in the air and then dropped it on the ground. We erased that person's hand during post-production.

willow grail
#

@keen rampart Couple of months before Paradox was released I decided to watch "Woods" just to get familiar with your work . After watching it I remember thinking that it would be so cool if they include a ''forest ''scene in ''Paradox'' just like he did in ''Woods'' .

keen rampart
#

@willow grail haha. The forest was the first shooting day and by far one of the most magical. Though it was freezing cold (winter in Czech Republic) we lit up a square kilometer and filled it with fog. It was our wish to replicate how the forest looked like in Rusty Lake Hotel (Mr. Boar's room)

#

This is without the fog, but gives you an idea of how it looked like

willow grail
#

@keen rampart this is my favorite scene from the whole movie!

#

@keen rampart how did the actors manage to stay warm between takes?

#

@keen rampart and how many hours did it take ?

keen rampart
#

@willow grail the actors had a lovely, heated trailer + tent. Myself, the RL guys and the crew had to dress up warm and drink lots of hot tea and coffee. Honestly, it wasn't easy.

#

It was a 10 hour night shoot, with 5 hours preparation when the sun was still out.

deft lava
#

David seems very dedicated

keen rampart
#

@deft lava fully agree. He's very patient and critical with himself.

willow grail
#

@keen rampart It was definitely worth it though!

deft lava
#

Yea, the film was amazing. And having to change and incorporate certain things to put into the movie, it's well done. It's a masterpiece

willow grail
#

@keen rampart how was it working with an African Grey parrot?

deft lava
#

My grandmother had one, they're extremely talkative

#

😂

keen rampart
#

@willow grail the parrot was trained for movie 'acting', so he was extremely calm and responsive. That said, he needed to come to the set with another parrot because both of them are shy when they're not together. And both of them were very talkative.

deft lava
#

Aww

#

That's so cute

willow grail
#

@keen rampart both were African Grey parrots? Did you get the chance to hold them?

keen rampart
#

@willow grail I believe so. Pretty much everyone from the cast and crew took pictures with the parrots standing on our arms or head.

deft lava
#

Aww

#

They're very smart birds

keen rampart
#

@deft lava very smart, but also very moody and shy. The owners told us we were lucky both parrots were in a good mood.

deft lava
#

Birds are cool in general 😂

willow grail
#

@keen rampart I was surprised to see that the parrot wasn't scared of Maarten wearing the Crow mask

deft lava
#

True

halcyon jewel
#

@keen rampart May I ask what the Lobster Donkey clip on the TV is about?^^
It's very funny, and we would like to know if there is any meaning or back story behind it

keen rampart
#

@willow grail I think there's a picture floating around somewhere of Maarten in costume with the parrot on his shoulder. I think you should bug him about it. ^^

#

@halcyon jewel which clip is that?

halcyon jewel
deft lava
#

We may or may not have started a cult

keen rampart
#

@halcyon jewel haha, first time I'm seeing that. It's a question for the RL guys, haven't a clue myself.

halcyon jewel
#

Thanks :D
Seems like the lobster donkey is a deep mystery...shrimp

deft lava
willow grail
#

@keen rampart Is that picture (of Maarten and the parrot) on the internet ? Should i ask Robin for it?

keen rampart
#

@willow grail I don't think so, they probably have it safely secured in a vault somewhere. Robin will have it.

deft lava
#

Haha

willow grail
#

@keen rampart Thanks! I will try to get it... otherwise I will have to draw it using multiple pictures for reference

sick ridge
#

All these production details are so cool to read through

keen rampart
#

@sick ridge feel free to ask anything you're curious about.

potent elk
#

@keen rampart
What was the scene that made you have the most bloopers ?

keen rampart
#

@potent elk may come as a surprise: the close-up shot of the picture frame where Dale wipes the dust off. I took us 20 times to get the dust & wipe correctly

ruby lichen
#

Haha, i can imagine that

potent elk
#

Wow, it must have been a pain to put the dust back each time XD

#

It explains why it looks like it was covered in flour more than regular dust

#

just too many layers

keen rampart
#

@potent elk it's a combination of dust, ash, flour and hairspray (to keep it in place) - and it was a major pain to get it to cover the image enough, but also still be easy enough for Dale to wipe it with one finger - oh, and also to not reflect any of the lights standing in the background or the camera team. Sometimes the shots we think are the easiest take the longest.

willow grail
#

@keen rampart Did you or the RL guys cast David as Dale?

potent elk
#

wow

keen rampart
#

@willow grail myself and the producer found him, did the initial casting session with him and a few other candidates. Then gave that recommendation to the RL guys who approved the choice.

willow grail
#

@keen rampart I'm guessing the same thing happened for Laura?

potent elk
#

Laura's role :
Just do nothing and be the creepy pretty blond girl that gets killed XD

#

there are roles like that that are just so essentials in the story, and yet so ridiculous from a production view

verbal aurora
#

I can just image all the retakes for that one scene ( Laura falling backwards in the watery depths of the lake ) to be perfect.....
Unless it was all done in one perfect take

potent elk
#

I mean, it's really hard to mess up this kind of scene

verbal aurora
#

yea, true.
But for some reason my mind keep picturing when they were doing takes of that scene, the fall Laura does was not so graceful
Then again, that's probably just my mind creating bloopers that don't exist for it

potent elk
#

x)

#

Maybe

tropic prairie
#

@keen rampart The lighting was beautiful. Though, to get that result, did you need to do a lot in postproduction? Or is that just what the camera recorded?

blissful adder
#

glad dale had an accurate reaction to finding a fish where you shouldnt find a fish

pliant schooner
#

Heh

#

We have learned that he is apparently afraid of fish

#

So that presumably happens every time he sees one, even when it’s where a fish is supposed to be

#

But yes, I would probably be weirded out too if I found a fish in a drawer

halcyon jewel
#

or maybe the fish was already lying around for a while and smelled pretty bad

blissful adder
#

that t oo maybe

pliant schooner
#

It looked surprisingly fresh

#

Not that I’m an expert

blissful adder
#

where did we learn that he's afraid of fish?

potent elk

it's in his medical file

itchyophobia or something like that

#

it's the phobia of fishs

blissful adder
pliant schooner
#

Ichthyophobia, yeah

balmy hornet
#

Isn't ichthyophobia a fear of fish

#

Not shrimp

#

Idk, ichthy means fish

#

Ima google what a fear of shrimp is

#

Apparently it's Ostraconophobia

#

Idk

blissful adder
#

shrimp is still aquatic, i though the image fit the conversation

teal flame
#

Someone edit shrimp into Fish

#

I would but I can't RN aa

keen rampart
#

@verbal aurora the fall of Laura was only shot once. We did a ton of preparation (falling backwards into someone's arms), but the shot in the film is the only take we have of her falling.

#

@tropic prairie Thank you, the cinematographer did an amazing job. In the room we didn't have to do much to achieve the look - we adjusted the saturation a bit and gave it a bit more of an 'old film' look during post production, but the original footage isn't that different from the final result. For the forest we shot everything in blueish light, which we then brought back to a more neutral black/white color during post production as this mimicked the game better.

#

We also shot everything in the room with haze spread througout the room, as that gives the lighting this dim/faded look

#

@willow grail for Laura it was the same. We had a much larger selection for the character as it was more about getting the right look, but after making a small selection and presenting it to the RL guys we invited the candidates for a screen-test, after which we chose Elena.

fringe mortar
#

were the elixirs just water with food coloring? 😮

sick ridge
#

did you use a blacklight for the elixirs?

coarse horizon
#

I'm sorry if this has already been asked, but did you have a script you had to stick to or other restrictions on what goes in the film?

#

Imposed by someone else is what I mean.

vagrant juniper
#

I really love how the film showed Dale’s emotion abt being trapped, and the weird stuff going on (fish in drawer) as well has his fear abt turning around when he thinks there’s someone behind the screen, or seeing things in the mirror behind him...like the games have never rlly incorporated the emotion of the character you’re playing as into it (besides Cube Escape: Birthday, and Ofc it was a very muted reaction and makes the player sort of amplify their own emotions around the situation which is cool) but seeing Dale’s fear firsthand thru an amazing actor is just...rlly cool and adds such an amazing layer of depth when replaying his parts in any of the series

#

Also Dale’s reaction to Laura falling into the lake is so cool bc it conveys so much abt his character in that one scene

#

It’s so cool

steel geyser
#

My favourite part is everything from when he emerges from the forest to when she falls into the lake. The music and cinematography captures the essence of the lake so perfectly, and it gives me chills when the corrupted soul comes out behind her. I've watched that part many times now and that whole section (as well as the rest of the movie) is just spectacularly well done. The movie blew past my expectations, that's for sure!

keen rampart
#

My fav part is the film

trim sundial
#

There was an image of a guy reaching over, in one of those achivements of getting into paradox, think of second story, reminds me of Pi the movie, the way the artistic was.

how long did it take to make all those props? damn

Wait a minute, no wonder Dale seem familiar, he did Underworld and Prince caspin.

trim sundial
#

So @dusk mountain Was that a real knife, or just a prop to hold against the actress throat?

jaunty saddle
#

If real, it would be held backwards

potent elk
#

No, it definitely looks like a real knife

#

But just look how far from her neck it is

#

and this is the closest it gets

#

she dies off camera

#

it's like the length of the entire blade away from her

halcyon jewel
#

I don't think they would risk the actress' life by actually pointing a sharp blade towards her neck

pliant schooner
#

Movie magic!

potent elk
#

Again, seeing how far it is, I think it's safe enough for them to do so

pliant schooner
#

Though it is not an uncommon trick to take a regular, albeit dull, knife and dull it even further by putting special tape on it

#

That's more for things on stage though. In movies there are all sorts of tricks you can do

potent elk
#

And yeah, I was going to point this out

#

but this doesn't look sharp

#

I mean there is signs that at some point it was sharpened

#

but it's a really thin line

#

so either the angle is really wide, making it less sharp

#

or it's just flat

#

Just for comparison, that's what it actually looks life before the sfx

halcyon jewel
#

could be a plastic blade that looks sharpened, but isn't actually really sharp

potent elk
#

No, it has metalic reflections

#

but they did accentuate them on the "sharp" end of the blade

#

with the magic of editing

halcyon jewel
#

maybe it has metallic paint on it?
just a suggestion tho

potent elk
#

maybe ?

#

looks like a pretty legit knife to me

#

a dull knife, though

trim sundial
#

A really dull knife though, without the sfx, looks like a studio prop though, I am kind of wondering of that, they would not end her carrer or even put her entire body at risk.

jaunty saddle
#

Can I say one thing

#

The Corrupted Soul should've been more blurry

Well what is really messed up is Birthday starts at WW2 as you may know, from playing roots.

charred zephyr
#

oh bOY HOWDY I HAVENT PLAYED BIRTHDAY YET

#

So I did the math

#

Apparently Dale was riding the elevator in 1972, and his 9th birthday was 1939, so that makes Dale 42 years old

I wonder if we can calculate the other’s ages through that???

wtf is going on here ?!?

I didn't see the mess @trim sundial made .-.
Explain yourself bc you make 0 sense with Dale and Laura being the same person, and Caroline holding baby Dale .-.

#

Do I have to remind you that Dale is supposed to be working on Laura's murder case ?

#

and that they don't have the same parents

#

and Dale is barely 5 years older ?

#

wtf is going on in your brain ?!? XD

#

Oh God... How could you even go with that conclusion...
Plus, it wasn't even Caroline who is holding the dress and the baby, it was Rose. Plus, the dress was mainly there to signify that the baby is Laura.

I’m rewatching the short film and dale is Big Valid

#

he isn’t the serious protagonist you would expect from a homicide detective, he’s just like “wtfwtfwtfwtfwtf” THE WHOLE TIME and it’s HILARIOUS

#

(dale in the forest) hey demons, it me...ya boi

potent elk
#

Oh, he is even more serious than anyone would be in this situation x)

charred zephyr
#

also GOD MY HEART CANT TAKE HIS FACE WHEN LAURA FALLS INTO THE LAKE

#

that “NO!” broke my SOUL

#

au where she pitches forward instead of back and he catches her,,,,

#

I cant stop thinking about the scene where Laura falls backwards into the water like???

#

she was so PERFECTLY stiff anD INTO A LAKEBED?? LIKE??

#

did they have it padded or was it just Do A Trust Fall But No One’s There

#

that looks like it hurt omg I hope the actress was Okay

#

AND ITS SUCH A GOOD SHOT

potent elk
#

she just fell, and they only did a few shots

#

like 3 max

#

and it doesn't hurt since her body breaks the water as she falls in it

#

she doesn't just fall flat on the surface

#

it's harder the farther it gets, but neck and skull are able to take the shock without too much pain

I already brought this up in #rusty-lake-hotel-roots-paradise-help, and I know this is gonna sound extremely random, but I am interested in knowing what tv was used in the paradox film and how they were able to put custom videos on it (I'm hoping it wasn't entirely VFX)

I wish I could actually meet the cast and crew behind this masterpiece and thank them all for giving us a jewel!

Rewatched this today! I was smiling after remembering how the BTS were made even after a whole year had passed. This was such an excellent team and film production.

@RustyLake Hi ! Sorry, I don't know if i'm allowed to talk to you directly, but do you plan on making a serie, after this short movie, about all the Rusty Lalke universe ? It could be sooo amazing ! And this short movie could be presented as a pilot to prod like Netflix for exemple ... !

#

potent wadi
#

Ahahah sorry for him ! But don't you think it could be so cool ?

Thank you very mach

I know its been a spell since my last post in this channel. I kind of wondered how long did the filming last?

tender hamlet
#

good question, but I think not so long. There is not much text and its just three places (the room, the forest and the lake)

errant flume
#

my guess is 2 weeks tops

tender hamlet
#

three days max. I think O.o
But there was a big preparation time

cursive dawn
#

@sharp pelican Do you know how much time it took to shoot Paradox?

sharp pelican
#

@cursive dawn The time it took was almost 2 weeks in total, consisting of 10 days shooting on set, 1 day and 1 night to record the forest scenes and 1 full shooting day to film the lake scenes.

cursive dawn
#

Ahhh now we know 😄

tender hamlet
#

Ohh longer than I think... Why so long?

People can wait until they upload images and movies, depending on how they feel.

#

We should have short films of all cube escapes starting from seasons in the recommended order it'd be magnific but a hard work

wild bloom
#

Sorry man but paradox is a special thing

#

Alll versions of paradox relate to each other

#

And I'm pretty sure that the cube escape series is perfect as is

charred zephyr
#

I think they hinted that they’re planning another short film!!!! But whether it’ll be of an existing game or a new project idk

#

tho I would LOOSE MY MIND over a Seasons short film,,,,,,,,,i lov Laura so much that’d be BOMB
