Unlike traditional animation techniques that use specialized 3D animation software; machinimamdash;a term derived from the words ldquo;machinerdquo; and ldquo;cinemardquo;mdash;records the action in real-time interactive 3D environments; such as those found in video games; to create a cinematic production. No longer solely the province of hard-core gamers; machinima has become central to the convergence between animation; television; and film; but retains its own identity as a unique media format. It has evolved quickly within massive multi-player gaming and virtual platforms such as Second Life; The Sims; World of Warcraft; and virtual worlds under development. These interviews; essays; and discussions with leading machinima producers; reviewers; performers; and advocates discuss scripting basics; character development; and set design; as well as tips on crafting machinima through creative use of sound; lighting; and post-production.

The instructions were easy to follow and I found no errors in the pattern. Unfortunately. there were few other patterns in the book that really called to me. That being said. it is only a matter of taste. and I believe the book has a variety of items suitable for many people and their style preferences.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
