Machinama Community Project?

**Sirusblk** · 10-21-2007, 08:09 PM

I was wondering if anyone is interested in a community machinama project. No cheap jokes and half a**ed jobs here. I'm talking about genuine voice over, camera work, and even maybe custom animations.

We have the tools, I've got a few ideas for narrative, I know a few things about camera work, but there's still much more to sort out.

I was just wondering if any one else out there was interested in this. I wouldn't want to get ahead of myself.

I could be an actor.

There will be bricks in my toilet if TG pulls off something like Ignus Solis.

yah that was an awesome video. I'm still wondering how they did the hand held part. Any one have any ideas how they did it?

The music by Lars Erik Fjosne is phenomenal. Absolutely brilliant film.

Make sure the writing, direction, acting, story, etc. are excellent if you want the machinima to be good. I've seen too many goofy ones from people that got hung up on the idea of making one.

Remember, it's not the tools, it's the artist.

With that said, good luck, if you do decide to make it. It sounds like a great project, but I'm way way too busy lately to help in any real capacity

I had a bit of an idea, to actually do something like a red vrs. blue. And I don't mean the halo machinama. I thought since Blu is already industrial and Red is already more of a farm type. I felt like you can split up the cast of 9 into two even teams

I thought writing a sorta script around that with a sorta industrial, office style reality show kinda feel would be pretty good for a premise.

Sorry for my message being so garbled I don't want to go into too much detail. I don't doubt that my idea could easily be stolen before it gets legs of it's own.
