the thoughts and creations of a naughty machinima artist

Platinum Arts Sandbox Game Maker!

Today i was fooling around with the Platinum Arts Sandbox Game Maker.

With that fine piece of 100% free software you can create complete Game levels including landscapes, objects, characters, animations… just everything you need to create a computer game.

To be honest, i don’t know too much about “Sandbox” yet. I’ve heard about it a few weeks ago but didn’t touch it…

Today i finally found some free hours in a hidden corner of my studio and so i started the editor.

I only scratched on the surface so far. But what i could create in those 2 hours and the advanced options i noticed during my first try is stunning…

Sound Design for Elfish Spell!

When you create a Machinima movie or Machinima comic/picture show you more or less often feel that something is missing. Sometimes a picture is simply not enough to transport the message.

So what can you do to deepen the atmosphere or to support a visual effect?

Correct: Add sound!

I tell you more about the sound design of my upcoming Erotic Machinima Comic “Luisa & The Elfish Spell” in this post…

Twitter Background Photoshop Template!

Cool, i´ve created a new background design for my twitter page to use it as a little extra promotion for “Luisa & The Elfish Spell”.

I hope that many of my lovely twitter followers and friends will love the new layout.

Just in case that you don´t love the new layout you can try to create a better one by yourself…

Because i´ve created the design in Photoshop and just thought: Hey, why not giving away the file?

What the heck is machinima?

I’m sure that most of you already know what machinima means…

Especially if you are a Sims addict i can see a 99% possibility that you still have clicked the “V” button on your keyboard to shoot a small video clip of your Sims’ in-game doings. The more advanced of you perhaps even have tried to cut some movie pieces together to create some kind of cool video clip.

Others – like me – are more interested in creating comics by using machinima techniques. You can see a poster of my upcoming machinima comic here >>>

But there are always some newbies around who might wonder about the term “machinima”. Is it a magical spell or just a tech hobby for nerds? The next mega hype or just a waste of time? You can decide by yourself…

What could be better than to explain machinima with a machinima movie?

I know a nice one…
