Archetype By Aaron Sims

This excellent scifi short from the famous FX house known as the Aaron Sims company features a combat robot known as RL7 malfunctioning in an extermination mission and becoming aware of his human past as a 'Carter Myung.' In a way it shares some plot points with Robocop, a semi organic prototype that becomes aware after certain stimuli despite getting 'formatted.'

This excellent pilot was created on a budget of well, $0 and was created as a pitch for a movie..Would you see this in theaters? Its cool that the FX house is gauging interest in the project by letting the public take a sneak peek..Pitches are usually very internal. Check out the making of after the break.
