Machinima for Dummies is in shops now!
I'm happy to report that Machinima for Dummies by Hugh Hancock and Johnnie Ingram (both of "Bloodspell" fame) is out in shops now. I'm sitting here with a nice shiny copy by my computer and am thoroughly looking forward to getting stuck into reading it!
Chapter content includes an introduction to machinima, an introduction basic film-making techniques, insider advice on set design and texturing, character design, video editing, storytelling, audio production, ten machinima films considered much-see viewing, and much, much more. the chapters themselves are organised into five parts, moving from novices through to pro machinima makers, and ensuring that there's something for everyone between the cover.
An interesting interview with Hugh about the book can be found here.
