Machinima

Since we are starting our machinima project this week, I thought I should look up some examples online for me to base my work off of. I found a lot of good examples. . . and a lot of bad ones. The bad ones had too many voice overs in crappy quality. The creators would have to stop all other audio for the voice overs to be on there too, the result is something obviously fake. The good ones consisted of mostly music and maybe a little bit of dialog that fit in well with the video. These 'good ones' were sort of like movie trailers or video game trailers. After watching all of the videos that I have, I have decided to skip the voice overs from me and get my 'characters' voices from a digital source like another movie or video game. I will also try to make my machinima in movie-trailer fashion. I hope this way my video won't look too hookey but instead look well done and legitimate. I have also been looking up some good epic music to use to make my video more dramatic. :)
