Do or do not. There is no try. Though when it comes to saving the Earth, and all we know and love, I’d prefer it if you did. Marvel lous animation (get it?) from Junaid Chundrigar.
Alright, technical education time. Machinima, describes the usage of 3D graphics engines rendering real-time to create cinematic productions. While its main platform is in video games, its viable use can extend into film making, cinematography, editing, technical engineering and advertising. However, Machinima is a pretty badass gaming network dedicated to entertaining the gaming culturites of the internet by hosting a small indigenous settlement’s worth of youtube video series while pedalling out some increasingly narcissistic merchendise. Similarly, just like the maidens of an undiscovered aborigine tribe, you’re bound to find at least one you like, and that variety of choice puts Machinima up there with the titans of gaming websites (I mean, when you’re number one on Screw Attack’s hit list, you’ve got to feel some sort of sense of accomplishment). But with everything from the high priest’s daughter to the water fetcher’s sister available, how do you know what to spend the next few nights working away at first? Say no more, I’ll show you the best parts of the rural Machinima bush.
For some reason, people want games to be realistic. Some people think the idea of suspending your belief enough to think it is actually possible for a notoriously famous assassin to just stroll around the street without a wink of trouble from the local authorities is completely impossible. Especially when he goes around gently pushing old italian women with pots balancing precariously on their heads. For those people (and indeed everyone else) How It Should Have Ended is a great webseries full of guaranteed laughs that grant a torch labelled “wait, what?” over the dark alleys of “completely plausible” street and “yeah, why not” avenue.
The animation style is appealing and the lip syncing and character acting are passable…though a bit trigger happy with that motion blur button the shock value humour and great story in every episode is sure to make gamers and non-gamers literally rofl. And the worst part is, you and I have thought of everyone of their ideas, but now everyone else thinks that they thought it first.
