MMOG Machinima

An Anonymous Reader wrote in to tell us about a Massively Multiplayer Machinima series entitled A Galaxy Far Away, made in Star Wars Galaxies. MMOGs are increasingly seeing use in Machinima productions and music videos, in works such as SWG's Fallen, WoW's Shutup and Dance, Dark Age of Camelot's Remember, and City of Heroes' Justice.

mmog was the other important word of the news.

Not... good?

[WhatAmIDoingHere]

Not only is it from Battlefront which is in no way a MMOG, but it's.. it's not very good. It's.. Just really bad. I started watching, not even expecting something on the level of RvB.. thank god for that, because the comedy is more along the lines of Garfield: The movie.

Yeah, it was dumb. I only saw episode 1. People, move along if you were expecting decent. It is not. :(

if marvel were to do a mmorpg

There's also ClanBob's "Dreams in Digital" machinima.

Machine cinema? What a cool combination.

Do you know a lot about machinima, or are you interested enough to research its history, culture, present state, and future directions?

Would you like to introduce other curious geeks to machinima?

Are you unafraid of, or capable of drinking enough to be unafraid of, getting up in front of 20-50 of your peers to give a presentation?

You should come present at Notacon [notacon.org]! It's a conference about technology, community, art, culture, hacking, music, and you. The call for papers is currently open. What would you like to talk about?

How to shut up and dance

[flibuste]

Can anyone point us to an article on how to have those World of Warcraft characters do all this funny things and how to record a whole sequence and not just a screenshot?

WoW Interface commands don't do *that* much, do they?

These guys have made a few very decent movies in SWG. My personal favourite so far is Fetts Vette.
