ANOTHER NEW VIDEO – Gman Squad: The Lost Tapes

Community News, Machinima News 9 Comments »

Two new videos in a week? What the F? If you liked the Gman Squad, there’s no way you won’t like this. This is a new video made entirely of footage from the 2008 Gman Squad Episodes 1 through 4 timeframe. I feel this is how the series should have always been like, editing-style wise. All the footage is either alternate takes or never before seen extras. Ten fun minutes. Check it out -

NEW VIDEO – The Garrysmod Secret Agent

Community News, Machinima News 2 Comments »

A new short machinima video that’s a take on James Bond and the spy genre. Few Goldfinger references in there, especially the obvious one near the end. I liked making this, pretty fun stuff.

Hearts and Brains continues this Sunday with Episode 2

Community News 1 Comment »

Oh hi, Mark. I felt like the first episode of Hearts and Brains was a breath of fresh air again. Was glad to see that it was a near-instant success. It got some recognition in a Kotaku post and received a ton of positive feedback, so thank you all mucho for that!

Since it has been deemed a series from the get-go, Episode 2 is knocking on completion’s door. Expect to see it uploaded and released to Machinima.com’s networks on this coming Sunday. Same ‘ol raunchy humor, and more zombie comedy featuring two fine derelicts in Rod Masters and his pal Gabriel. The series begins to develop now, as this second episode introduces (more in-depth this time) the character of Sasha. She is Rod’s personal assistant, caught up in the same dilemma as everybody else..

The time it should go up would be around 3AM EST. What? You’re not staying up after the wee hours of the morning after Saturday night? Guess you’re just going to have to do your best Jagger, then:

Take care,

BRAND NEW MACHINIMA “Hearts and Brains Episode 1″ RELEASED!

Community News, Machinima News 3 Comments »

It’s called “Pretty…Woman?”

This is the project I’ve been posting about the past couple of months, and the pilot episode has finally reached completion. A lot of pretty legit editing and Garrysmod recording went into this. It already looks as if the response is very positive, so start thinking Episodes 2 and 3 pretty soon. It’s a Garrysmod Machinima comedy involving zombies, and, well, this one just happens to involve a zombie hooker. Sounds like wonderful subject matter for little Johnny. Enjoy.

What began as just another day in the life of Rod Masters suddenly takes a drastic turn when the escort service sends a rather eerie lady to his apartment.

Two-part Interview: Cabooss15 and Xanatos

Community News, Other News 3 Comments »

So this was a very impromptu thing, but a guy by the name of Cabooss15 (goblinsrevenge) sent me a private message on youtube asking for a quick interview. I haven’t been up to a lot lately – just the usual mix of personal problems and internets, so we added each other on skype and did the interview right then and there.

GMOD Machinima Tricks – Episode 2: One Man Machinima-making Army

Community News, Machinima News 5 Comments »

Sup bros!!! New video up, this is another brief machinima mini-tutorial for you Garrysmod dawgs. The last tutorial (Episode 1 – Green screens and spaceships) was a little too specific, so this one is a bit more vague all-around. It’s basically about using all of the Garrysmod tricks and your console to be able to make more for your movie entirely by yourself, without having to deal with an online server and inviting all your bros to help you out in your movie. So check it out, honky.

Counter-Strike Minute 91

Community News No Comments »

An old pal of mine, DrMattDestruction, has had a very ongoing Counter-Strike 1.6 series on youtube called “CS Minutes”. The premise of these videos are that he records everyday happenings in ESEA CS1.6 league “Pug” games, and compiles them into these videos. So far he’s made over 90. That’s pretty impressive. A few times he has asked pals to “guest edit” the videos. So after he asked me, I just went gung-ho with a bunch of silly add-ins. Meh. It’s just a handful of us having fun. Why not.

The new “Gmod Machinima Tricks” just got finished tonight. This second episode is about being a “one man machinima-making army”. I’ll be sending that off to the Machinima.com guys shortly, so expect that soon too. In the meantime, though:

Unfriendly Fire – Our brand new Team Fortress 2 machinima

Community News, Machinima News 20 Comments »

After many halo reach-arounds, our new TF2 machinima is finally uploaded and viewable. Check it out! This is probably the most legit production-oriented thing we’ve done. And it’s a good, old-fashioned, vanilla TF2 movie. None of them there add-ons, fizzy gadgets, or woo-woo widgets.

The second “Gmod Machinima tricks” video will be made next, and rather soon. Meanwhile, enjoy.
