Alien Planet: Pixelschatten is now online until May 29!

" A valiant effort that brings the Alien franchise full circle" (CC2K)

"This is what science fiction is all about." (AvPGalaxy)

"The best 'Alien' script in twenty years." (PlanetAvP)

"This could be the Alien sequel fans have long been hoping for." (Alien Experience)

"The script itself is decent enough, and with a little reworking an a few touches here and there it could be a very interesting option to see come to life and definitely better than the dross we’ve endured recently." (Little White Lies)

"An ingenious little script, this is surely one of the most ambitious independent projects I’ve seen in years." (AndersonVision)

Friday, July 31 2009: Today it was confirmed that Ridley Scott will direct an Alien Prequel scripted by Jon Spaihts. I glad that Mr. Scott is returning to the franchise that he started. To me personally, this meant that I should finally stop my work on ALIEN PLANET because these guys are hopefully gonna rock the franchise again. I decided to make the screenplay available on the blog. Sure it's not perfect, I'm still learning, my basic English translation is flawed, especially in the dialogues, and the characters could be tighter and more fleshed out in the first act, but in the end it has a heart. And that is what most films lack. Feel free to read this as pure entertainment with a glass of wine, with Sigur Ros, Efterklang or Clint Mansell music in the background. A screenplay that you can imagine as a what-if, as a 3D film, and nothing more, something that takes you into another mood - to another planet. This is meant for daydreamers. Feel free to copy, paste and forward it! For those that fear any legal response, the screenplay is registered at the WGA West under the mysterious ID 1161616. I don't know what the hell that means ;-) I for my part would like to thank all those people that invested time into making Alien Planet a great experience. I wish Scott Free and Fox good luck. Let's colaborate, create and be productive. Please share your opinion in the comments!

Pixelschatten is now online until May 29!

I hope you are all as tired of Pirates of the Carribean as me and check out my film at http://www.pixelschatten.com!

Pixel (Ben Gageik) is a 22-year-old small-town blogger: Everyone can read about him and his friends online. His blog "Pixelschatten" used to be the hippest thing in town, but now the local fame has faded away. His friends go to college, have new friends and interests, and his girlfriend Suse (Zora Klostermann) is irritated by the private issues revealed on the blog. When Pixel realizes that everyone but him is moving on, he changes all their lives with just one post...

"Pixelschatten" is a unique cinematic experience, a quirky-melancholic, yet warm and funny portrait of the "generation Internet", mixing the first-person point of you aesthetics of "Enter The Void" with the zeitgeist of "The Social Network". But this time it's not about the greedy entrepreneurs behind a moneymaking machine, it's about the people that spend their everyday life online. It's about you. And the spoilers for your life.
