A work-in-progress 15-minute 3D Animated Pilot Film by Muhil
January 1, 2025 -
I released the trailer on YouTube and I got a lot of feedback from Reddit and Instagram.
Eternal Omens is my 24th narrative project, it's a 15 minute 3D animated Pilot film that's been in production for over 4.5 years. Reason being, it was my dream back then to try and achieve 50% of Disney's quality and the fact that I designed and animated everything in the film. This Fantasy Drama film serves as an intro to a huge world and the three main characters.

The film was made entirely in Blender, and I designed all the characters, Assets, animations, lighting, effects, etc. Thus, the production took way too long.
The animation isn't polished to perfection, but I had to decide between finishing the film or not. I had set a way too ambitious goal for myself, and I was working on and off on the film. But through persistence and because of the promise I made to my 18-year-old self, I am glad our team has managed to complete the film!

This 15-minute film will be sent to multiple film festivals and investors, and it will also act as pitch to turn this film into a multi-part feature film or a series as the film world and the lore I've created is very vast.
