1''ORIGIN ZERO'' is a web project by Erasmus Brosdau (the guy famous for the Fan Film ''Film/TheLordInquisitor''). As of December 2018, there are two episodes: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXjHLFMiMYY Defeat]]" and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGQPE3mPc7k I Remember]]", both in 4K and as awesome as the ''Lord'' is.

3The premise is simple and common. Earth's surface is all but destroyed by humanity, so they decide to settle a new planet. Problem is, it's not as empty as thought...

5In 2020, it was announced that instead of Web Animation, the series are becoming the basis for a computer game called ZENOBIA.

8!!The series provide examples of:
9* ActionGirl: Luna Richards, the narrator in "I Remember".
10* ArcWords: In "I Remember". Three guesses what they are.
11* CoolStarship: The colony ships.
12* CurbStompBattle: There is no indication the squad wiped out in "Defeat" so much as hit a single enemy.
13* DyingDeclarationOfHate: In "Defeat", the POV survivor approaches a dying man, only to be called coward (he/she survived by ducking out of the fight).
14* EarthThatUsedToBeBetter: After five centuries of pollution.
15* ExpositionCut: "I Remember".
16* HumanPopsicle: Most of the people spent the journey to Zenobia in cryosleep.
17* MiniMecha
18* NothingIsScarier: "Defeat" doesn't show a single enemy, except for a shadow at the end.
19* PoweredArmor: The DIVERS.
20* SceneryPorn: As always, Erasmus is thorough with the graphics.
21* SoleSurvivor: The POV human in "Defeat". No indication for how long so far.
22* ThatsNoMoon: The second episodes starts with a team entering a huge underground cavern. They notice something that looks like a small hill. It's not.
23* TooGoodToBeTrue: ''Forests, oceans, clean air: humanity's new home''. Yeah, right!
