Sweet, clever and well-thought out, FTL is still my fave sci-fi short - and I've seen a good few. Also excellently acted, making this story very believable!
2/21/18. Too bad it lasted only 15 minutes, but it was great while it lasted. Great special effects with a good sci-fi story behind it. Nice to be able to catch this online via digg.com
I'm quite a fan of the sci-fi short film genre', have seen most of them produced to date, but FTL stands out among the best produced so far.
It's a perfect balance of well produced graphics, story, direction and acting compressed into a 15 minute experience. This is not an easy accomplishment.
Not to give any spoilers here, but there are various somewhat subtle but interesting little side features, such as the q-sat (quantum entangled realtime comm satellite) launched into Mars orbit, which add to the full fabric of this production. But it's the human aspect of this production which really stands out.
Exceptionally well done.
Absolutely a 10 for this one

Wow.
The opening visual effects were great - especially the reflections of earth off outside of the ring. All the photography was tight and beautifully lit.
I won't add any spoilers - there isn't much to spoil in a 15minute film - but it was a good story and well edited

Great 15 minute ride. The special effects and computer animation is better than 90% of full length features. How is that possible. Full length feature would be great.
