Cool Short: Rakka – The new short from Neill Blomkamp’s Oats Studios

Rakka is the first short film from Oats Studios.

RAKKA is the story of broken humanity following the invasion of a technologically superior alien species. Bleak harrowing and unrelenting, the humans we meet must find enough courage to go on fighting.

Oats Studio is the brain child of Neill Blomkamp (District 9, Chappie) and is a way of releasing new ideas and I quite like how they are doing it. The first short is free to watch below, but you can buy all the assets of the film – Downloadable video file of Rakka including a 5.1 surround sound mix, Rakka Concept Art, Rakka Scripts, Rakka 3D Models and more – to remix your own version.

At Oats Studios, the creation of Volume 1 required immense resources. Our wish is to receive funding sourced directly from our audience, as we establish a studio fueled by pure creativity and passion. We have many, many more worlds to create and stories to tell, but we need help from people around the globe. Our goal is to create Volumes 2, 3 and more and eventually, full scale-scale features. If you feel positive about what you’ve seen and want more, please support us by checking out our Oats Studios – Volume 1 Assets page where you will be able to purchase additional content.

It is all over on Steam and Blomkamp explained it a bit more while speaking to Verge.
