Want to make amatuer Machinima? Then watch this :D 1m14s

[Maryanne Solo]

1st mashup. Raw fullscreen fraps capture. Windows live movie maker storyboard. Done to see if it feels right.

It's ok for now :) 720p on youtube is nice. Pause it & go straight to 720 here too.

OK ok I spelt amateur incorrectly :( I have been too busy 1/ dancing on top of cows, 2/ wearing red hats 3/ Singing songs about corn. (it's a cult thing don't mind me :-)

Please enjoy: Dreams.....

Hello I was going to put "totally" amateur in the title? I forgot to :-) (ooo just did, oh only in this one.. lol!). Thank you for your kind advice. As I say it's just a storyboard in this first draft. I need to hook up a joystick for smooth camera work too. So much to do yet.

The only reason it even exists is because of the audio. That 1m14s was leftover from a project and has never been published in any format. It must be 7 years old? It is only 16bit 42khz, (from memory), resampled .wav and I would dearly love to hear it at todays uncompressed high bit/sample rates. Alas it is not to be.

It is a good example of basic vid capture and windows live movie maker use. I hope other novices, (points finger at self), might gain some benefit from seeing such a raw storyboard 8^)

Thank you everyone for your kind comments.

Ave, I just found this and the word I chose is cool. Just started to play a bit Machinima myself. I love the possibilities. I just came across a program I have that lets me crop video while formatting so I am off to get more intensely involved.

Here is a first crack at one I did earlier in June it's raw but that's the novice in me:) You might find it familiar;)

Awesome Dee! So much fun and thanks for posting that So thats your dance hud hey! It's really cool. So much to learn machinima wise. If ever I can help with some novice tips just yell!

I can't wait to see your next effort tyvm. 8^)

ty Ave, It is fun a whole other side to SL. What I have been working with lately is to just get smooth movement around the screen. You mentioned somewhere about using a joystick so I will try that this weekend.

I will take you up on the aid offer when needed thanks.
