I was contacted by a guy interested in the movie “Skinningrove – Welcome to The Future.
He asked where the movie was shot so I sent him a link. I met Taran Rampersad “in world” and told him about the Skinningrove project and showed the location of the Skinningrove shoot. Call me a saddo but it was quite exciting to be interviewed on set like some kind of movie mogul. Then Taran said he was going to get a few shots and promptly turned into a penguin. I asked him why and he said that being a small penguin avaar meant it did not get in the way of the screen shots. What a great idea, I’ll use that technique for shooting Machinima. Now I know what to do with that Duck outfit I was conned into buying.
You can see the pictures that this penguin shot by going to www.flickr.com and searching on Institute of Digital Innovation or follow this link:

A free tool for grabbing screen action and a website (YouTube like) for publishing vids. http://wegame.com/ – can store to hard drive for making machinima or upload directly. Great for quick screen grabs but uncertain at present about making machinima.

The Straad Players use Second Life to produce Machinima but there are other engines with different pros and cons. There are some purpose built engines for Machinima and these can be found in the tool category. (click read more)
