Machinima Expo | Event Date: November 20th & 21st, 2010. 9am to 4pm pacific time

Missed a Expo Video Presentation? Here’s the 2010 Machinima Expo Presentation Reel!

While we are sorting through all of the various Google Analytics and Livestream stats on the 2-day Expo, thought we’d share a Vimeo archive we’ve created of all the Video presentations given at the recent MachinExpo 2010. Enjoyed all of them, but a couple were really, really good. We wanted to make sure everyone who came to the Expo had access to them. Plus the folks who couldn’t make it (you know who you are..) can watch them for the first time.

The basic idea behind the video presentations was to present a short (yeah, right..) introduction to the topic or machinima program being presented. We wanted a simple presentation on how a particular program works or what the basics are for a topic like “Sound Design” or “Writing Scripts for Machinima”. What emerged was better than I expected: a range of approaches that range from the pro-style video created by Indy Liu for Voovees Director to the personal video essay created by machinima writer Kate Lee of Chatnoir Studios.

Our thanks to all of the presenters for the time and effort put into making these vids and for being present at the Expo to answer questions live.

The main archive for the videos is here: 2010 Machinima Expo Presentation Reel

The individual presentations were:

-Voovees Director by Indy Liu

-The Movies by Killian

-Introduction to Muvizu by Barry Sheridan

-GMOD (Gary’s Mod for Half Life 2 by Harrison Heller

-Second Life by Pooky Amsterdam

-Sound Design for Machinima by Ricky Grove

-Writing Scripts for Machinima by Kate Lee
