The installer is doing it's job and I'm terrified.
I have to find time and hard drive space to record + edit a politically incorrect, distasteful show about my journeys in the beta. I also gotta threaten the lives of my fellow machinimakers to make them take part.
The plan is to make a TV show which is not going to be shown on television. It will have all the necessary things that a healthy TV show needs: an idiotic presenter (me), bad music, a warning at the start, commercial breaks, dead gnomes, dead murlocs, boobs, titties, saatana, perkele, Xenu and everything in between.
The site was affected by trojans, but now they are gone! Big thanks for Styng with the extermination. If something like this happens in the future, I'll always notify people via Twitter and Facebook - so follow me there if you ain't doing so already.
If you visited the site, please do a virus scan asap.
All's clear now, so let's celebrate this with a song!
And in other news, the arrival of my Alienware should be even closer into becoming a reality!
About exactly one year ago I made a sudden decision to stop using Vegas for any compositing work and instead do all the hard work in After Effects.
I haven't regretted that decision for a second.
After playing around with AE, a new machinima started to come out. As AE was a new program to me, I decided that I had to make a movie so much full of visual candy that I could learn a thing or two about the program. Now, a lot of time has passed and I really do know a lot more - back then I had no idea on how to use adjustment layers so I precomposed a bit too much.
The machinima I worked on back then had the project name "5th Dimension" which is the name of the song the movie uses. I don't exactly know why I did stop working on that project, but now a crossroads is ahead - to continue it or bury it?
Below here the latest rendering I have of the movie, dated 31st July 2009.
There are some scenes I love, some I absolutely hate, some I need to remake, few I need to fix and too many which yell VIDEO COPILOT LOL at your face.
Axe it or haxx it?
Feed it to murlocs or wait a bit more and finish it?
