SEED is a story of a lonely android stranded on a barren planet searching for a precious artifact.
After crash landing on a freshly discovered planet, he decides to go further towards his original goal, what was a mysterious ancient object hidden in one of the volcanoes of the planet.
The short film is a metaphor of getting through an art block and finding the next goal in life.

Hey all, Hope you are going to enjoy my short film and feel free to ask any questions. I would be more than happy to answer! 🙂
Beautiful short movie. Well made, I enjoyed it very much.
Thanks!
Sorry, makes no sense.
kinda slow and boring… thx anyway
At least we have gotten beyond the unrealistic female heroine.
It’s walle/ totall recall.
Another 99.9% "build up", with .1% ending….
Nothing new Battlestar viper copy
There already using lasers to control the weather
ships – flawless, robot – flawless, movement – flawless, planets – flawless, score – flawless. Story less so, but those take maturity you will gain
So much NMS, love it.
Oh I really liked this!!! Very creative❤
So…. Prometheus but with a robot instead of an engineer and a lava river instead of the waterfall, same purpose of self sacrifice to seed life.

Great video, just shows most complex thing in simplest manner.
Great animation. Love it! Greetings from Acapulco.
Its so dark I can barely see it. Must be my computer
Fascinating! I loved the attention to detail in music composition amplifying loneliness. The human gait of the protagonist. The blend of colors throughout, the tiniest detail such as floating ash on the volcano. The positive message was well placed. Thank you for a lovely creative expression. You are a talented storyteller!
Very nice
Love the soundtrack and story-telling/building
Excellent. Unique. Intriguing. As always I am in awe of the talent you gather.
Very cool.
Amazing short film
Amazing short film
Great work
Reminds me of «Reborn», also available here.
What happened to the second robot and the scout ship that launched in response to the first one detecting the artifact? (01:45 and 03:20)
Just wonderful work. Thank you. The music was perfect
Like it think there could be a lot more story lines about planet creation more interesting storyline than endless war
Hi, Cecilia here. It’s great to meet you!
Didn't enjoy a single element. A robot with obvious robot head wearing boots, a suit and bowtie(?). Then a ship for some reason which surprise cliche has engine problems.
gg
Best “ Dust” Short Film that is closed- captioning for the deaf—“ Seed”. I finally enjoyed it very much!
Nice animation
Thank you. If there's a will, there's a way.
This irritated me as pointless for the first few minutes… the ending brought me to tears because it's exactly how it feels! Amazingly accurate depiction of how I feel as a creative!
Beautiful, uplifting and very stylish. ❤
This film is not good.
Well, that's seven minutes of my life that I'll never get back !
Man—the shipping costs on getting that biker jacket out to Europa must have been crazy
Somebody explain this, please
I enjoyed that, nice effects good length for a quick fix and some story and depth to round it all out.
No Mans Sky vibes! Love it.
When I saw the smoke column on the background, I knew I was watching a great example of telling stories.
One part is unfolding in front of you, the walking.
The other part already happened the crash of his ship
Very nice. Its clean and crisp
I cannot understand why black screens are deemed necessary. Video is visual. Use visuals to tell the story. Pointless last minutes.
Why didn't the terraforming device revive the android? It clearly had the technology and the will to do what was needed? And clearly the purpose was known what the "artifact" would do. I mean to me, the artifact should have been studied, analysed, and researched to create a device that could do this for far more many worlds.
De lujo y mágico corto ❤
very nice , to bad the Android had to die or give up its existence
“Your idea and creativity is like a seed. It just awaits the right conditions to thrive.”
I love that comparison! Creativity, like a seed, requires the right environment—space to grow, nourishment, and time. When those conditions align, it can blossom into something truly remarkable. What kind of conditions do you think help creativity thrive best?
Crime, killing of innocent unarmed people, opression, murder, betrayal, terrorism, sucide bombers, these are all also seeds, flourishing in the right environment.
If space is a vacuum, why is there a sound of a passing ship???
Nice work, love it
Beautiful! ❤❤❤❤ thank you so much! ❤❤❤❤
Fantastic. Proof that Hollywood could be remdered obsolete as time moves forward. Movies are too talky now. Few are the number of movie releases I've bothered watching. Most big mainstream studios have made nothing but dumbed down movies and people flock to them, mistaking lazy plots and generic dialogue for genius. Creativity isn't dead clearly, Dust has proven that thank goodness. Real creativity is just under appreciated. A movie doesnt even have to be intellectual. A movie can be fun only but creativity still is neccessary. It just needs to be treated as the art form to gain respect from its audoence.
Love ya Dust. Dont ever change.
Sitting in the car watching this. The moment it started raining in the story, it started raining here. Pretty cool coincidence!
It was OK. Maybe I would have liked it better if the story was in temporal order instead of using a flashback.
Loved it ,always enjoy the enigmatic and atmospheric shorts.
Chappie crashes his viper and finds the big bad from oblivion in a cave, gives it the all spark, and it terraforms mars like in total recall.
Other than that, and half the movie being walking…. Well I guess that is that
Yeah Nah
You have something extraordinary here!
Very nice. MORE please!!
SORRY. DOA! Try Again thought…
Nicely done!!
جالبه به نگاه بنده سفینه امو امو ازکنار سیاره زمین رد نشده بلکه فرود آمده و تمام نیروهای سیاهش درروی زمین تکثیر گردانیده

Beautiful vignette, and quote. Not much hope around these days.
It's good to see one of your videos…yt hasn't recommended one in a long time…I always have found your videos to be awesome…
No man's sky
2:59 this reminds me a lot of an avatar scene when humans arrived at Pandora in the 1st and 2nd film.
Not impressed, sorry!
That videos are much better then so many bollywood movies
Someone been playing No Mans Sky! Gorgeous visuals and atmosphere!
O que aconteceu com o segundo Android que caiu com a astronave???
If the universe is endless as we've been told……
Our planet is but a speck of dust in space time.
We may well be a universe unto ourselves…..in a mushroom or a golf ball….a 10 minuite lifetime but to us, thousands of years…..as we've been told……
This is what good parents do for their kids so they can prosper.
Muy bueno, la verdad, interesante…
Great sound track
Why didn't the people that built the Genesis Device/ Tet thing just have the Seed preinstalled, rather than delivered separately? Surely a more foolproof method, without the additional cost and complexity of the android. And what was that spaceship sequence (with the cool warp effect) about?
That's exactly how I created Earth.
Wonderful to witness! Thank you!
I don’t care for animated short films.
Online Premier….? Hardly
