Maybe as big as the invention of cinema or video games themselves. <br /><br />Machinima is like the first baby step.<br /><br />He seems to be connecting dots between what he has learned about with total performance and image capture in the Matrix Trilogy(which is basically vr shot to film), and focusing it into interactive gaming platforms. He is talking about making common universe settings in game and film and making them the exact same in quality and visual presentation with "trapdoors" between… and if I am reading it correctly, he is talking about layering "filmed" or digitized? 2d or 3d performances of real humans/actors and placing them into some form of hybrid scenery that you can also play inside.<br /><br />That's mind blowing in it's implications and at the same time absolutely a common sense idea. Sounds like the film industry should jump on this now while they still have a young audience to steer.<br /><br />As for Ninja .. if these 87/11 guys were part of making Matrix martial arts super "moments", like Gaeta, and under the teachings of legendary kung fu director Woo Ping, they must be America's best. <br /><br />- ms. gmr / nyc crewAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
