Ray Bradbury’s “Fahrenheit 451” Gets a Hot New Look

NYC director/designers Seiji Anderson and David Weinstock join forces on a dark and detailed new CG take on the 1953 dystopian novel Fahrenheit 451 from the POV of a government “fireman” who finds great pleasure in burning books.

Seiji Anderson and David Weinstock: “Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 serves as an ever-relevant warning against a society built on censorship and anti-intellectualism.

“Working primarily with Unreal Engine 5 with a mix of Blender, Houdini, Embergen, and Plasticity, we endeavored to revisit this story as a short film created through the lens of contemporary science fiction design in the language of a film or TV series trailer.”
