machinima

It is practically machinima, although I'd be surprised if anyone has modded the engine as many machinima artists do.

They had funded the Mortal Combat series on Machinima before, but it looks like they're buying in big now.

Admittedly the many many quests along the quest chain typically don't have machinima sequences.

I think when he said 'cut scenes' he meant the 'machinima sequences' as opposed to the pre-rendered cinematics.

The way you did that calls back to machinima's own origins within another media and was a delightful thought to have today.

I did some work earlier this year making some machinima video in Second Life for this movie.

I was surprised the other day when a brazilian (talking in portuguese) had a Machinima affiliation in his video.

The main products I have been selling center around video/machinima production, audience and performance interactions, and avatar animation improvements.

I first heard about Machinima in the Seananners' videos, and now they (you?) appear to be dominating the game market on Youtube.

I'd love to know how you got reputable actors to star in WoW machinima!

Doing promotions like this for Machinima partners/affiliates is nothing new.

The fact that Machinima is mandating these terms to the content producers is what makes everything a bit shady, and poses several conflicts of interest for them.

From the article: "Machinima sequences, teasers, and the amazing pre-rendered cinemas that make Blizzard games kick off with a flash are all created in this group."

The groups responsibilities include "machinima sequences", which I take to include most pre-scripted in-game sequences that have NPCs doing something; triggered, say, by ending a quest.

Speaking as someone who stumbled into marketing and lead-gen skills by way of something video-based, online, and not particularly lucrative (Machinima), I thoroughly and enthusiastically second patio11's "Bonus Points" section.

According to a leaked copy of the full legal agreement behind the promotion, video creators "may not say anything negative or disparaging about Machinima, Xbox One, or any of its Games" and must keep the details of the promotional agreement confidential in order to qualify for payment.

With Machinima, the temptation is to use the computer for all that stuff that would be impossibly expensive to do otherwise.

Still, it's great to see the games companies lining up to allow Let's Plays, Machinima, and similar uses of their content.

I'm going to be posting some over the next few days, actually - plus a series over at Charlie Stross's blog talking about the past, present and future of Machinima.
