As a frustrated Hollywood filmmaker wannabe, I find "machinema" films just about the most exciting new development in recent years. A great "democratizer," low-cost, high-powered PCs and cutting edge game animation now allow nearly anyone willing to learn a few "modding" tricks to realize that Hollywood dream.
And there's great stuff out there, too - you've seen a lot of it right here at QJ. Most of the promotional gaming videos we bring you are wonderful examples of machinema art. This particular one is a mock news story about one of the features of World of Warcraft - The Burning Crusade. The subject is a hard-drinking, overgrown Dwarven warrior with a bad Scottish accent and a bad hairstyle as he takes his dragon out for a spin.
It's good to know that WoW fans don't take themselves or their game too seriously. In any event, whether or not you're a hard-core WoW gamer or not, check out the video and enjoy a funny - and very well done - example of machinema art.
