UPDATE - the short film is called The Man from Blackwater and will air this Saturday (5/06/10) on Five USA at 11.25 p.m.
Hollywood movie director John Hillcoat (The Proposition) was hired to make a short film made from Rockstar’s new video game Red Dead Redemption. So what does “made from” mean - it means that the movie was created in game rather than animated from scratch.
Videogames + Movies = MEDIA CONVERGENCE!!!!
The short is airing on Fox this Saturday night at midnight. Since I imagine not a lot of people will be up to see it, I hope that Fox puts the film online not long after.
Here's the trailer for it:
