User blog:DarkFeather/Top Five Fan Films

Hello, everyone. Now, I know there are some feelings about fan productions around here, particularly about sappy fangirls who go out of the canon. Well, here is some worthwhile watching for those of you willing to go to the darkside... (Note: some are multipart and have spin-offs by other users. Make sure you find the right ones!)

1. Initiation

Initiation is an one-part, early story of Altaïr, particularly his introduction to the Assassins. The detail, animation, and visuals are very impressive for a fan-released, free production. Animated in the vein of Ascendance, it was created by TheDuoGroup.

2. Vengeance

Vengeance is an entirely new fan-created storyline of a modern-day Assassin contained in a five-part YouTube posting. There is a short connection with canon Ezio's visit to Spain. This is the longest and best done of live-action fan production, in my opinion.

3. Artefact

Artefact (yes, that's how it's spelled) takes a Japanese-based modern-day Assassin and pits him against Europe's Fronteracorp, another Templar front. Personally, for a fanfilm, I found the martial arts choreography worthwhile, as was the story. The film is two-part and produced by WenCuts2.

4. Generations

Generations is currently a two-part fanfilm of a modern-day Assassin. Choreography is better in the second, but the camerawork makes this one worth watching. It's produced by QuiggzVash.

5. We Know What We Are

This video went viral as a free promotion of the Assassin's Creed franchise and is well-known enough to warrant a place here. It was also made by TheDuoGroup.

I'd highly recommend watching all of these. Thanks, all!
