Machinima Takes It To The Music Videos

by Piers Fawkes

Johnnie Moore points us to a video of a soft-rock ballad ‘Here Without You’ that has been created in machinima (by a fan, we guess). The video is built using the engine that runs the video-game World of Warcraft and at time of posting it had been favorited 513 times.

Interesting to see how regular folk are using the tools around them to be creative while the music industry still struggles with costs to make decent videos: we showed the video to our music contributor Hedy and she said, "Iron Maiden just made a video in that style and it cost them a fortune!"
