It's called "AMP," and it was written and directed by Adam Marisett. This thing is freakin' awesome, fun, and charming. One of the characters in the short is a robot, and the special effects were done extremely well. Here's a short story synopsis:
10 years after leaving a war his father started, Quinn and Amp live in the slums selling illegal custom-tech just to afford the batteries that keep Amp alive. When an old childhood friend tracks him down, Quinn is confronted with the dilemma of choosing to remain idle in a city run by the corrupt Coreley Corporation or finally finish the war he never wanted to be a part of.
The guy that directed this could be going places. Check out the short and let us know what you think of it!
