This is the original and best quality version of Lost: Black Earth a Free SciFi full movie english on YouTube.
I'd like to take a moment to thank you, the people of YouTube. Originally this movie started out as a full feature-length independent movie but as completion drew near, it was obvious that we were only going to be able to make it a short (albeit a long short). With this came the reality that we would never get a release, nor make our money back. It didn't really matter, however, as it was a project about having the experience of making a movie more than the final result.
Leap ahead ten years and technologies and the internet have gotten to a place where any movie, no matter the length, can be released for free to the world. So on a whim in 2012, I decided to upload this little scifi movie I made back in 1999 to see if anyone would want to see it. With really bad internet at the time, it took over a week to upload but I stuck with it.
And now, in 2020, it has surpassed 3million views. Way more than I ever dreamed would see it. Some of you love it, some hate it. I love reading all the comments, even the negative ones (they keep me laughing).
So thank you to all YouTubers who have taken the time to watch this movie…

Allow me to forewarn you, this was my first ever movie that I made with practically no money. I couldn't afford to go to film school so this project was my education. And educate me it did.
It is not a great movie by any stretch of the imagination and if I am being perfectly honest, I find it quite cringe-worthy to watch now. But it served its purpose in teaching me (mainly through mistakes) how to make a movie and how to tell a story.
PLEASE DON'T WATCH THIS if you are expecting something that competes with a Hollywood scifi movies that have hundreds of millions of dollars at its disposal. It doesn’t!
I directed Lost: Black Earth back in 1999. As well as being my first movie, it was actually one of the very first digital movies (yes, even before George Lucas made the all-digital Star Wars EpII). All up it only cost around $AU10,000 to make. We shot on weekends over a six month period and then I single-handedly took on the post-production, editing, visual effects, sound design, etc, in my spare time over the next couple of years.
At the time, it was a massive effort and an enormous amount of filmmaking and storytelling knowledge was learned. More than you'd ever get sitting in a classroom or reading a book. Even though looking back at it now there is so much to cringe about and so many things I can't believe I did. Since making this little scifi movie, my career has developed in the film industry as an editor and visual effects artist.
So to anyone who wants to make a life in the film industry, just go and do it. It doesn't matter if what you make is crap, at least you'll have made something. Just by making something, you put yourself above 90% of all the people who "want" to be filmmakers. But don't worry, they're the ones who will leave all the negative comments :D
Lost: Black Earth is a family friendly apocalyptic, Science Fiction, Action, Adventure movie inspired by great movies like Star Wars, The Postman, Omega Man, Starship Troopers and is available as a Free SciFi movie on YouTube.
