Aaron Sims is a name you will want to note and not forget. This is a man that will very soon be the next big thing in Hollywood. Whether he will be a one hit wonder or something more I can not say. I can however say with confidence that Aaron Sim’s Sci-Fi short film ARCHETYPE is one of the best shorts I have ever seen.
Neil Blomkomp got his shot in Hollywood after making a short film called Jo’Burg and Aaron Sims has developed a short film that is equally as good.
Now its worth noting that Aaron Sims is not some average joe. He owns an FX company and has worked on everything from Green Lantern to Rise of the Planet of the Apes and is a very talented special effects designer.
This movie could be the one to move him from FX guru to feature film maker. Watch the short below, do you believe that Archetype would make a great feature film?
