Jagon - Fantasy short film (2016)

The acting in this was magnitudes better than almost any Hollywood production. Everyone involved deserves high praise.

This was waaaaaaaayy too short. This needed to be a full length movie or a series. A beautiful girl with the power of the ancients; a gatherer with a back story longer than Gandalf's beard, and a swordsman waiting in the distance. A story of legendary proportions with awesome cinematography and directory, and you're cutting it off now...why? I want more!!!

Thanks to all of you for the overwhelming comments. I am out of words and always get emotional when I read what you guys have written. Once in a while I come back to this video and can't believe we actually did that film. I must have been crazy or sth. to actually pull this off. And even more crazy were the crew and the people who actually beared with me and made my vision possible. We all went through a production hell back then but when I look back now, it was a magical time and I feel lucky that I was allowed to make this crazy flick. Just like you guys, I wish there was a second part or a full blown movie about Jagon but as my favorite character of all time said: life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get. Thanks to all the crew members and you guys here on youtube. May your guardian angel protect you all from all evil. M.E.G.

This should have 20 million views and give that director fucking money so we can watch a full movie of this.

Thank you youtube for finally recommending something worth my time even if it is 4 years too late..

When you're half-way through the film, on a Friday afternoon after a hard week of work, and realize you've seen it already, but you keep watching it anyway, in silence and awe. Wow.

No horse like that graced a poor mans stable, but I do digress for such an excellent movie short.

All the special effects in the world and nothing beats a fan and a guy throwing dirt!

This was filmed 5 years ago?!!? I just stumbled on it while looking at short films!! I must say that of the many short films I have seen, as well as, big budget Motion Pictures.........Hollywood would salivate over this one!! Well acted, scripted, perfect plot lines and the special effects were amazing!! The orange princess and the hunter acted their parts magnificently. Actually, all of them were awesome!! Should this become a full length Movie, I'd pay to see it! Well done folks......and thanks for the translations! LOL!!

The phrase “leave them wanting more” is so painfully accurate for this short film. Great job, it should be turned into a feature film and it could be fit into ANY genre.

What's really amazing is the look of this film is as cinematic as any 100 million plus block buster. The use of slow motion, the editing and lighting and the acting are all professional movie quality. Nice.

This is 10000 times better than hollywood. Please continue!

Jiminy crickets......came across this by accident, read a few comments....I'm only 10 minutes in and I'm like "OMG....WHY hasn't this been made into a major full length movie!?!" More than that, I sure hope the big studios have snapped up every one of you that worked on this and are giving you the license and freedom to create more superb films. The acting is superb....every close up, every scene....how it was directed, shot, edited is absolutely spectacular! Hope all of you go far, because this deserves some kind of award!

HOW AM I JUST DISCOVERING THIS!!!!!! I need more. I want to watch this series, read all of the books, watch the film, etc. AMAZING

Outstanding work by this team. Just now watching it in 2023 and it holds up very well against other great works. The fact that this was done as a student production is very impressive. I especially love the mood that the color choice of your shots in the woods delivered. I'd love to see more of this story or world in another production. Maybe one day we will get it! Be proud of the masterpiece you have created.

This movie is an example of what makes Germany great.

What a treat! Amazing... 6 years and still looks superb for todays' standard.

AWESOME! If only major movie studios, with virtually unlimited funds, had one scintilla of the talent and compositional instinct of the makers of this film! BRAVO!

Oh my god this was sooooo much better than a lot of films out today, it’s amazing what people can do with limited time and budget. I hope you guys have an awesome future because this was spectacular!

This a very good short film. This deserve a full length movie with a sequel. I would love to watch it. ❤👍
