Machiniplex3: Recap & Pix from the Chat Noir Forum in Second Life
http://machiniplex3.blogspot.com/2010/03/recap-pix-from-chat-noir-forum.html
Recap and Pix from the Chat Noir Forum in Second Life. My thanks to everyone who came to last Sunday's Mplex forum with Chat Noir. Towards the end of the forum we talked with Sherwin about his process of making music: he doesn't play instruments pe se, but puts together music from samples. Man, you'd hardly know it considering how good his music is. And I'm going to hold him to a promise to post a "music for machinima filmmakers" tutorial at the chatnoir blog at some point in the future. My sincere thank...

Machiniplex3: Machiniplex Closing down at the end of May, 2011
http://machiniplex3.blogspot.com/2011/05/machiniplex-closing-down-at-end-of-may.html
Machiniplex Closing down at the end of May, 2011. Sadly, no one has come forward with a desire to take over Machiniplex, so I've decided to shut the Machiniplex video site down and move the films to a Vimeo channel. I'll also be closing this blog at the end of this month (May, 2011). But most of all, thanks to the filmmakers who made the Mplex site such a good location for quality machinima films. Thank you all. I'll announce when the Vimeo channel is up as soon as it's done. In a high quality format.

Then on Monday ni...

Machiniplex3: June 2008
http://machiniplex3.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 24, 2008. Some thoughts about Creative Freedom. This is my first post here on the machiniplex blog and as such it seemed appropriate to share this. It's earliest examples of animation, dating back to 3200BC. A few months ago, as I was working on my current machinima project (an original sci-fi series), a question popped into my head, Wouldn't it be great if the BBC or some other studio picked this up and broadcast it? And as I continued, I thought it over and came to my answer. No. That did...

Machiniplex3: February 2008
http://machiniplex3.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 26, 2008. Stage6 Shutting Down on February 28. Usually when you move out of your apartment or quit your job you give a months notice. The idea being that you give the people you are affecting, time to make the necessary adjustments to your absence. The people who run Stage6, a popular site for indie film/machinima, don't seem to share this idea of being considerate. We created Stage6 with the mission of empowering content creators and viewers to discover a new kind of video experience&#...

Machiniplex3: Chantal Harvey's JOY OF MUSIC Premiere
http://machiniplex3.blogspot.com/2010/02/chantal-harveys-joy-of-music-premiere.html
Chantal Harvey's JOY OF MUSIC Premiere. We were very pleased with the Premiere of machinima filmmaker Chantal Harvey's new film, JOY OF MUSIC. The audio work on the film was done by Lorin Tone and it was superb; really made the film stand out for me (I'm partial to sound work since I do so much sound myself). And Judi Newall played the boy in real time on set. She was also present at the Premiere and provided some excellent and interesting commentary on the production process. Thank you for c...While JOY...
