Nothing compares to you!

Half-Life 2's FacePoser has clearly opened up some interesting possibilities for machinima, ranging from facial expression to lip synching. Here, Dxvid puts these capabilities to the text in a music video of "Nothing Compares to You" performed by Sinead O'Connor/Mossman.

"This is the song 'Nothing Compares to You' performed by Mossman from Half-Life 2.

"This machinima movie was made in February 2006 and features the song "Nothing Compares to You". It was filmed using FacePoser, Half Life 2, Fraps and Vegas. If you would like to see my other machinima movies please go to -

Please also notice the disco light effect.

"We interrupt your program for a visual message and maybe we even get to the point where you wouldn't want to tune in again..."

Person 2184 is a three part visual poem running inside the game unreal tournament 2004 from epicgames. It shows queer happenings in an urban environment not very far from here and now.
Running inside the game means that you can download person2184 as a modification to your original game Unreal Tournament 2004 and play the movies in-engine in realtime on your computer.
The goal of the project is to give an idea of alternative art direction, content and story structure to interactive and non-interactive narrative.

Kirschner wrote the Moviesandbox Machinima tool. Moviesandbox is an Open-Source graphical filmmaking tool in progress, formerly developed for the Unreal Tournament engine and now based on C++ and OpenGL.

MachinimaBits - 29th January 2009

Machinima is a blend of machine, cinema and animation. It is the production of (short) films within a game-engine.

In 2006 we organized the first MachinimaBits festival. Since then, we find that focussing on videogames in such a confined way excludes a lot of the more interesting, arguably border-line practices. This year we would like to broaden our scope and focus on the use of videogame (technologies) in terms of appropriation.
To appropriate something involves taking possession of (parts of) it. The term appropriation often refers to the use of borrowed elements in the creation of a new work. The borrowed elements may include images, forms or styles.
For now we like to diverse between 4 forms of appropriation (Click on the categories to find some examples):

Form
Content
Technology
The Game as a Whole
