Explore the DUST Multiverse on our App: Humanity is being tea-bagged, kill-shotted, and yo-mama-joked out of existence by robots who think they're teenage gamers. “Uprising“ by Ben Hansford Connect with the Filmmaker: More About “Uprising“: Gaming super-nerd Bernie Meckler is having the worst day of his life. He's just failed to woo his secret love, his roomies have begun their online tourney without him, and -- oh yeah -- the robot apocalypse has just begun. Now Bernie must survive hordes of murderous Hellbots, packs of driverless Priuses, and his numerous physical inadequacies -- to hopefully save the world. “Uprising“ Credits: JOHN GEMBERLING MEAGHAN RATH CHRIS WITASKE RAMONA YOUNG Written & Directed By BEN HANSFORD Produced By JAMES HETH Produced By PAUL HETH MICHAEL SCHLICT Co-Producers Brian Fargo jo2y Drew Meade Andy Sofield Mark Warshaw Executive Producers POLINA SCHLICT Co-Executive Producers DAVE ABEL GABRIEL ROSENSTEIN Juliano Angeliano Michael Faradie Joe Hansford Albert Romero Anthony Toste Bob Turgeon Michael Whelan Director of Photography ANDREW TURMAN Editor JOHN THOMPSON NICHOLAS J WENGER Sound Design & Mix TRANSPORTED AUDIO VFX Supervisors Thomas J Connor Johnny Renzulli Brian White Story Consultant Steven Paul Martinez Gordon Smith Robot Design JAN BURAGAY DREDZNORT ALEX FALKNER BEN HANSFORD JOHN J PARK Costume Designer SUSAN CHAN Original Music By JACOB YOFFEE Casting By NICKOLE DORO SHAYNA SHERWOOD Subscribe to the DUST and ALTER newsletter: Subscribe to DUST on YouTube: #DUST #scifi #shortfilm About DUST: DUST presents thought-provoking science fiction content, exploring the future of humanity through the lens of science and technology.
