What is Machinima?
Machinima is a new form of filmmaking using real-time, 3D virtual environments and gaming technologies. By using an avatar’s point of view as a camera, the virtual world becomes a set and other avatars within the camera’s view are the actors. This exciting new form of filmmaking is gaining in popularity and enabling artists with small budgets to create films that can mirror scenes and sets from bigger budget producers. 48 hours later, the movie must be complete.
