Shattered Glass Releases new blog, and new promo!
Will we ever stop?NO
The awnser in obviously NO.
We have released a second, official OMFF 2008 promo for the awards.
This one was filmed in Moviestorm (the latest version), and in it, Me and Luke interview a very famous machinimator, Ross Scott. Don't think this is a good thing for Ross, watch it first, it's about a certain little interview. Now that being said, Ross was never really "Interviewed" considering he doesn't even talk in the video here, but it's the thought that counts right?
We've also released a new blog site which is,

Gamers meet Byron
"What happens when you expose a bunch of hardcore video gamers to a 200-year-old poem? The reaction is very mixed. Strange Company’s latest machinima piece, When We Two Parted, is a visual interpretation of Byron’s famous poem of love, loss and regret. Hugh (the co-author of this blog and the director of the piece) released it onto YouTube recently, under the Machinima.com channel. The reaction and comments were not what he was expecting at all."

Fly it. Film it. Edit it
"These days the game engines seem to become more a nuisance then an empowerment to machinima artists. Once upon a time there were discussions whether any postproduction should be allowed in machinima and the ILL clan forced even their title sequence to Hardly Workin’ into Quake. Today there is rarely any machinima film on the arty side of things that has not seen some form of (ever more elaborate) post-production." [link]Tom Jantol Interviews...er..Tom Jantol! [link]

When We Two Parted - Strange Company's first Moviestorm movie
Strange Company have just released their first Moviestorm film, "When We Two Parted"It's an adaption of the famous poem of loss and longing of the same name by Victorian Romantic poet Lord Byron.
It was rendered in a "sketch" non-photorealistic style, which Strange Company will probably use for future projects.

Why we couldn't release our own film on DVD
"I hope everyone's enjoying their BloodSpell DVDs that they've downloaded and burned (not to mention the seperate commentaries). I'm sorry that we couldn't offer an easier way to get the darn things than downloading 10 Gb of data, and then printing your own labels. But, unfortunately, we can't - because despite spending 4 years on BloodSpell, we don't control our own film." [link]Oh I Miss The Simple Times! [link]
