Sup broseidons. Finally after a year of staying quiet I have direct access to this blog now. So expect it to be much cooler than whatever Alex has been doing. Sorry for the Brochinima Holiday Special. We kinda dropped the ball on that vid, we know. So lay off with the hate mail... OR ELSE. Ya this is the beginning of a new era and we may have an MW2 short coming your way. So hold on tight its gonna be a bumpy ride.
Brochinima 2009 Holiday Special
Yes, I did mess around in photoshop this time around...ANYWAYS...It's Christmas Eve people! I'm pumped! Greatest thing about this Christmas is that it is Brochinima's first Christmas as part of the Machinima.com Directors Program. It's been a really great year being a part of it and has given us an awesome experience. I'm also glad that this year we are able to give our viewers a special present! Here is our Uncharted 2 Holiday Special, it's kind of outdated cause it was more of a Thanksgiving thing, and I personally think my writing on this was weak, but enjoy it anyways! And no you cannot return this give, I threw away the receipt, HA!

December Update
Holy shit! It's already December, so here's our monthly update. So it's been a really busy week with work so I haven't had much time to edit. Though I have begun editing Alone. I've been working closely with Emil who has brought, not only a lot of the music for this one, but also a ton of great constructive criticism. The episode is looking pretty damn good so far, I am certain it will go beyond my expectations.
Though Alone is only 2nd on our list. Our holiday special is our top priority because we DO have a deadline that Machinima through on top of our bundle of work. Even if it's at the cost of delaying Alone, I rather release the holiday special in time for Christmas or before. So in the next couple of weeks I can guarantee the first Brochinima Holiday Special XD. Peace!
Happy Thanksgiving Update!
What's up people! We hope your all having a sweet Thanksgiving and stuffing your face with all kinds of different stuff. I know I will.
Anyways, we just wanted to give you a little update of what's going to happen over break at Brochinima Productions. I made a small list below:
- Currently I'm working on my first Uncharted 2 video. The production we expect to finish before break ends.
- I believe Will is working on a short of epic proportions...that is all I will say
- No we have not forgotten about Alone Chapter 7. The voice actors are hard at work on getting their lines done, which I expect to have all of them received by the end of the break.
So yeah, we got a lot of filming and editing on our hands, but that's fine, cause we love doing this stuff. And how are we going to film this without a cameraman you ask? Well once Chase left, he was generous enough to lend me his capturing device. I will try to be of equal greatness as he was with being a cameraman. Alright, well that's all for now. Have a great Thanksgiving guys and keep checking in for updates!
Tips, Tricks, Hints, and Outtakes
Yo Yo! So, while we were working on the lines for our last video: Tips, Tricks, and Hints on filming on console GTA4, we had some pretty funny outtakes. I ended up putting them together into this little video with that hilarious picture from the short. Take a look and Enjoy!
GTA IV Tips, Tricks, and Hints
Elo Mates! So our newest video has come out today! It's got comedy, action, oh and even a little bit of information for you the viewer! It is a tutorial that machinima asked us to do: GTA IV Tips, Tricks, and Hints. If any fans out there have been wondering how we make our series/shorts that you have been watching in the past, well now you can know! Watch now and all of us at Brochinima Productions encourage you to try and make your own Machinima.
YouTube
Happy Halloween Update!
Dayum! I haven't posted anything in a while. Sorry about that XD. First off, I'd just like to say Happy Halloween for all those who enjoy the holiday.
Now in updates. Last night, the crew got a lot of work done, not only in filming but also in a lot of other things. We filmed a major short that Machinima asked us to do, and we may even be able to get the feature spot for it. This is really big for us so seriously stay tuned for that video that will be coming up soon.
In the news for Alone: Yesterday we also filmed a major scene for Alone. Its got a good amount of action in it (not as much as the last part that we still need to film, but still enough). We are certain that we will finish production on this episode before Chase leaves, which is in a couple of weeks. So, as you guessed it, this may be the last episode of Alone you see for a while. But don't worry about it because Will has been exploring Machinima Mode in Uncharted 2 and is quite appalled by how great it is. Once I get the game, which will be very soon, we will start throwing out some shorts and possibly even a new series! Though don't forget about Alone because I may start saving up for the high class capture card that Chase owns XD. If I do happen to get a capture card, Alone will continue at either its regular pace or even a faster pace. Alright, well stay tuned for our next short which will be coming out in a few days!
Werd?
Indeed, Werd. This weekend we made large strands of progress in the next episode of Alone. Finished filming a couple scenes and I've already gotten lines from one of the voice actors. So here's the deal, November 16th is the fateful day where Chase leaves us for a few months (maybe), he may be able to bring his PS3 with him. Anyways, this means we wont be able to film anything for a few months. We are convinced that we will finished filming Alone before he leaves. Once he does, Will and I are going to spend those 3 months working on the Days of Darkness script. Also depending on whether or not you need to capture stuff in Machinima Mode of Uncharted 2, we may be able to release shorts from that. Alright, well that's all for now, I'll probably make another post sometime soon.
Alone - Chapter 6
Ladies and Gents, I now present to you Alone Chapter 6 "The Waiting Game"! Some quick notes about this episode: This is the first HD episode in the series, that's why we took so long to make it. Now, I'm not going to say that it's perfect, because it's definitely nowhere near to perfect, but we did the most we could with the script and actors. Also an important note, if you are a viewer who does not keep up to date with our material, the voice of the Assassin has changed. For future episodes, I have episodes 7 and 8 fully thought out, I just need to get the script written. I'll get to work on the episode 7 script this week. Alright, well that's all for now, Enjoy!
YouTube
Thats a Wrap!
Well, after months of hard work, we've completed Alone Chapter 6. There are just a few things that I would have been a bit happier with if they had been changed, but unfortunately we don't have the time to keep working on this episode. Overall the episode turned out really good, I'm quite happy with it. Anyways, it's pretty late right now and I'm not really in the mood to deal with the paper work to post it up, so I'll deal with that tomorrow. Later
Who's Awesome?
Us, that's who! Nah, I'm just kidding. Anyways, I put up a post yesterday talking about the somewhat large issue I ran into while editing. Good news is that I managed to figure out the problem. Since I wanted to be really technical with this episode, I decided to use a very large amount of tracks, apparently Sony Vegas could not render that many tracks at once. So I found a solution to this, unfortunately I still had to re-edit everything, but it went by pretty quick cause I' am super efficient. Anyways, Scene 3 has successfully been edited and rendered to 720p, looks pretty amazing so far.
Sony Vegas 8 = Crap!
Alright guys, good news and bad news. Good news is that I edited up Scene 3 of Alone. Bad news is that Sony Vegas screwed me over completely. For some reason, I can't render what I have so far to check out the progress. The program either crashes, freezes, or gives me an error message when I try. So here's whats gonna happen, today, I got Sony Vegas 9. I'm going to spend the rest of the night to try and re-edit scenes 1-3, even though I'm exhausted. I'll make an update tomorrow to let everyone know if I succeeded.
Progress!
Sup fans and newcomers! Just wanted to let you all know, progress is being made on the new Alone episode. I've edited the first scene and will be moving on to edit the second very soon. Some lines still need to be worked on with Lucas though. Though it is moving along, even if slowly. In other news, Will is having weird issues with rendering in Sony Vegas, so anything that he was working on won't be released unless we find a solution. For Days of Darkness, that project has not been abandoned, just delayed. Things have just been confusing and weird lately since we found out that Chase may be leaving the crew. Good news is that he may not, he will just have little time to work with us. So what were probably going to do is finish the script and put as much work into filming as we can during any type of breaks in the future.
Voice Actor Found!
Hey everyone, I thought I should let you know that the new voice actor for the role of the Assassin in Alone has been found. His name is Christian Capraro, hope you all like his voice.I'm going to spend the week or so working on lines with everyone and hopefully should have the episode done by the end of next week. Stay tuned for more updates!
Prolonged Update
Hey guys. Sorry I haven't made an update in a little while. I know you've all been expecting Liberty City Troopers for a long time now. The problem this time was in filefront, for some reason the link got all messed up. I re-submitted it this time as a quicktime file. Hopefully it works. In crew news, sadly (not really) we had to fire Mark, the voice of the Assassin. I'm guessing all of you who just read that just partied it up a bit cause he was terrible. He was also a douchbag that didn't want to do more than 5 minutes of work on his lines, so good ridance. So you will notice a change in the Assassin's voice from Chapter 6 and on. Were still in the process of replacing him, but once we find someone I'll get to editing and have it out for everyone to see!
The Little Shop of Sex
So our new GTA 4 short is out. We had a pretty fun time filming this (not really). The main voice of this was done by a good friend of mine who isn't a part of the crew, but who knows. He might just join if we really need him more often. Hope you all like it.
Youtube
Endless Hours
Just here to give a little update. Over the last weekend we filmed for almost 10 hours, not in one day of course. Probably the most time we have ever put into filming in one weekend. Anyways, we completed production on 2 videos and are nearly done with a third. The 2 videos that we did finish are in post production and should be ready to upload by the end of the week if were lucky. For the third video, we'll probably finish filming tomorrow or Thursday. As for LC Troopers, I have no idea why Will still hasn't posted that since its done and ready for upload. Finally, once we finish filming Alone Chapter 6, we are going straight to finishing Days Of Darkness. Will and I still have to make many many changes to the script. The sad news is that Chase will be leaving the team for good as he has life changing plans to attend to. So if we do not finish filming the movie before he leaves us, then you probably wont see it until maybe Christmas.
Yet another update
If your blind and haven't noticed that the entire look of the site changed then take a quick glance around and check it out. I took a night to find a new template and screwed around with the HTML to get it to work out, and it did! Hope you all like the new look. In more important news, Chase is back from Hawaii, so were going to spend a good chunk of this week filming various things. Stay tuned for more updates.
Stall
Hey all. Just wanted to give you all a little update. As Chase is having his fun down in Hawaii, the rest of us on the team are also taking a little break. Production has stalled until Chase comes back, which I believe should be in a few days or so. Once he does get back, we are going to be filming like crazy. Here's a small list of what should be on our plate:
-We are going to restart production of Days of Darkness in HD
-Film Alone Chapter 6
-I believe Will is still putting some work into LC Troopers and has began work on another video using MGO
I don't believe we have anything else on our plate. Our main focus is getting our first full length movie, Days of Darkness, out for all of you before summer ends. Also some nice news, in August I will be heading up to New York to meet Will in person for the first time. For any newcomers to our work, All of our videos are made by some 20 different people located all over parts of the world, so none of us have actually met. In a couple of weeks that will change. Stay tuned for some updates in a short time.
Uncharted 2 Beta Montage
Wow! I thought this video would have come out a lot later. For those who don't know, this video was made by our cameraman, Chase, who does a lot of great work with his capture card. This is just one example of that great work. Hope everyone likes it!
YouTube
Initiation
Sorry for the long wait for our first summer release, but as many of you know, we once again encountered a massive attack of rejection emails due to copyright infringement. Unfortunately the website we were using does not seem to work for us anymore. Anyways, this is also our first HD release. Hope you all like it and stay tuned for our next video, Uncharted 2 Beta Montage, which will be released shortly!
YouTube
Pathetic
WOW! The site where we got our music for many of our videos, freeplaymusic.com, has completely screwed us over. Unfortunately all three of our newest videos were rejected due to music copyright. I have already resubmitted Initiation, it should be out in the next couple of days. As for the Uncharted 2 Beta Montage, Chase is going to fix the music and resubmit. As for COPS, better yet know as LC Troopers (freaking copyrights), Will is very angry about that as it was rejected for the second time. Really, it's not cool to re-edit videos which you thought had the perfect music, and to be honest, there was no better soundtrack than the one Will had chosen. So we don't know what were doing with that video, but Initiation and the Uncharted 2 Beta Montage will come out shortly (hopefully).
Arg!
So bad news everyone. COPS, our newest GTA 4 short did not go through. Apparently the name and general concept can not be used. Were not sure if it'll still go up even if we change the name but were going to try and make so minor changes to get it up. If not then we'll just have to post it on our channel. But, yesterday we filmed another GTA 4 short called Initiation. I'm going to be editing that in the next couple of days. I expect it to be out by the end of next week. See all you soon!
Deux
Hey guys! For those who don't know, the title means two in french. Why two you say? That's because we are going to submit two videos tonight, Our new GTA 4 video, COPS, and a little Uncharted 2 montage that Chase (our cameraman) made. You could probably expect those by the end of this week, maybe Friday or Saturday. As for the Skate 2 Montage, Will is probably going to edit that during the week. You may expect that next week. In news wise, Chase got himself a little gift that will change the entire face of this earth! He got himself a new capture card, and not just any card, an HD card. We filmed COPS in HD and any future videos will also be in HD. That's right, high quality coming your way!
Summer!
Hey everyone! Guess what! Yet another year of classes is over. Finals are over and summer is here. Though the weather is just crap. Anyways, I have some updates for everyone. Yesterday we filmed out upcoming GTA 4 video, it's a COPS spoof. Will is in the process of editing it, so it should be coming out anytime now. We also finished our Skate 2 montage a while back, but never had the chance to edit. So that will also be coming out sometime soon. Like always, we have a small delay, Party Patrol. Unfortunately Will was not proud enough with the lines he received from some of the voice actors, so they have to re-do their lines. Once Will gets his new lines, then shortly after will be its release.
Now for some real news. Since were going to have a ton of time over the summer, we are going to completely finish Days of Darkness. Will and I have to do some minor changes to the script, since it was written for an asshole and for Halo 3. That may come out mid-late summer. Expect a lot of production coming from us in the next 3 months cause were going to be shooting out videos like its nonsense.
Update Numbah 2
Hey peeps! Just wanted to give you all a little update. We haven't been able to anything in filming/editing wise because of finals and everything. But what we have been able to finish is the script to our new GTA 4 Video. So very little progress, but still progress. Once finals are over, were going to film the GTA 4 video in one take, then all there's left is a ton of editing. So if all goes well then we should be able to get all the videos out for their planned release.
June Update
Well its that time of the month again. First of the month means we decide to tell you whats coming up in the near future. Were going to be putting work into very different styled videos for this month. Those videos include:
- Party Patrol Episode 4
- GTA 4 Video
- Skate 2 Montage
Alone - Chapter 5
Whats up! So finally the 5th chapter of Alone is now out! We worked pretty hard on this one. Like people requested, there is a ton of action in this one. It is also the longest episode yet. We rolled it in at 9:59, that's right, 1 more second and we would have been screwed. Take that Youtube! Anyways....From now on, each episode is going to have a decent amount of action, if not most of the episode. In future news, for chapter 6, we may have a pretty hard time filming for the most part. As most of you know, it is the end of yet another year of classes, so in the next few weeks there are going to be finals. But over the summer break, we will definitely be able to release a ton of new great stuff. In even future news, I have chapters 7 and 8 also fully planned, those are planned to be great too. Finally in crew news, I am proud to announce that we have a new voice actor who has joined. His name is Grant, he will be voicing an upcoming character in Alone and one of the characters in Days Of Darkness. Hope you'll all like his voice as much as we do. Well here's your links you've been waiting so much to get!
Youtube
Machinima
Upload and Rejection
So good news and bad news, and kinda more bad news. So the good news is that I uploaded Alone Chapter 5 to Machinima around 1 AM today. Which comes to the kinda bad news where I was too late on uploading it, so there is little guarantee the episode will make it up on Tuesday. Instead it'll probably come out maybe Thursday, maybe Friday, I'm not too sure I've never uploaded on a Saturday. Though the episode turned out great, since we were accepted onto Machinima, I decided to get Sony Vegas Pro to edit, so now we have high quality editing going on. Anyways, onto the real bad news. Our other latest video, George Bush Plays COD4, was supposed to come out sometime today or anywhere near there. Turns out there was some 3 second background music that stopped it from being posted. There were also slight editing errors, but anyways were going to take care of that and re submit asap. Well stay tuned for the New Alone coming sometime next week.
Update
Yo people! Just wanted to let you know I've got the release date for the new Alone for next Tuesday. I'm going to finish editing by tomorrow and have it uploaded Friday, means it'll come out next Tuesday. Another video that will be coming out, probably before Alone, is a little thing that Will made a little while back. Its pretty freaking funny. You'll see.
Madness Montage
Finally, after 3 dry months of no videos we release our new montage. This one is mainly about explosions of various things and a bit of fighting. In other news, Alone Chapter 5 should be coming out shortly. We promised to get it out this month so were going to do everything in our power to do so. Just awaiting lines from Lucas and ill get to work on editing. I'm pretty sure that Will is just about ready to also release the 4th episode of Party Patrol. Finally, we have finished production on our skate 2 montage. Really, I think that is really gonna be great, Will and I got some great footage so it should turn out great. But I wouldn't expect it for this month. Alright well that's all for now, links for the new montage are below.
YouTube
Machinima
Upload
Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know that we've edited the music in Madness. We put uncopyrighted music this time so we put it up on Machinima. You should see it go up in the next few days. I'll put up a post when its up.
Audio...Again
Youtube is really getting on our nerves. With one of our last videos using music that we were uncertain about, of course the music is a problem. So the new GTA montage wont go up until we fix the music. If we pick uncopyrighted music, which we probably will then the montage will probably go up on Machinima. Though if we just pick another song then it will go on our channel and be released much sooner.
May Update
Now that were on Machinima, we will be hard at work for the best quality work to bring out to the world. As you should know, there will be the release of our new montage tomorrow, so you should all check that out. Some confirmed videos that will also be coming out this month will be:
- Alone Chapter 5
- Party Patrol Episode 4
- Party Patrol Episode 5
- Skate 2 Montage
- GTA 4 Montage
Important Notice
This is an important post, so open up those ears and listen up. All our main videos are now on machinima(all with the exception of Seeking Pro). Also you will not being seeing montages on machinima. Since there is that annoying copyright issue, no montages would probably make it past clearance. I'd like to make a few main points:
1. The next GTA 4 montage has been re announced for this Saturday, the 2nd of May. So check that out on our channel this Saturday, of course I will link you guys.
2. We have thought long and hard about Seeking Pro. We have had faint thoughts of canceling the show entirely and just doing Skate 2 Montages. Though even if we do continue Seeking Pro, the montages will probably still happen anyways. Anyways, tomorrow we will be posting a video, which was supposed to be the season 2 intro, but consider it the trailer. If we get good reviews and people think they would want to watch it, then we may continue. But its up to you guys so go ahead and check that out later.
STAY TUNED FOR GTA 4 MONTAGE SATURDAY THE 2ND

Link #1
And so, after so long, we find ourselves on machinima. With the first link Party Patrol Episode 1 has made it on there. Link has been updated in its column.
Still Here
Hey, Don't worry we are still here and rollin. I know its been a while since I've made a post. Lately we've been signing all the paperwork and re-editing all our videos to fit the Machinima criteria. It is very tiring and annoying, but it'll all be worth it. Though I got some bad news, yesterday we got an email from the machinima team saying that Alone has music that is copyrighted. So unfortunately, I got to re-edit all the Alone episodes. Luckily for me I got break next week, so ill be going at it for a while. Good news is that you'll be seeing the Party Patrol links up soon enough. Once all our stuff is up we got some announcements and big improvements for everyone, so stay tuned.
-Alex VT
-William Macaulay
Important Update
You might have noticed that neither Party Patrol nor the new Montage have made it up today. Well we want to wait until we are officially on the Machinima YouTube channel. So, all videos have been delayed until then. We will be back soon enough.
Big One!
Yes this is gonna be quite large. Lots to tell. Anyways, as you probably know, Party Patrol didn't come out last weekend. But not to worry, its going to be released this weekend, as well as the scheduled Montage that Will has been planning. I saw a little preview, its pretty funny, you'll all like it. Also, coming out next weekend will be Alone Chapter 5. We've been filming a lot lately, we have it half filmed and I should be getting the lines from the voice actors in the next few days. Might have it ready before next weekend, but its probably still going to be aired next weekend because I love to torture the fans. No just kidding, but really its going to be aired next weekend. Talking about new things, the crew got a new voice actor. Since we are producing the GTA 4 version of Days of Darkness, which we began production on, we needed a new voice actor. He is also going to be voice acting a new role that will be showing itself in Alone in the next few chapters. His name is Jez, hope everyone likes his voice.
In site news, I've decided to remove the calendar. It was a nice way of showing air dates, but those can always be changed. So from now on were just going to have the column saying the scheduled exact date for the episode. And now for the big news. The big thing everyone's been waiting for. We've been contacted by the official Director of Programming for Machinima.com. As most of you may know, Machinima has an oh so famous channel. Our machinima will now be airing on there! We've hit the big time. But anyways, that means that our machinima must be exclusive content only on their channel. So you will notice that almost none of the links for our past episodes work. That is because our material cannot be on our own page. So I will fix the links once we get all the videos on the Machinima channel. I'll let you know when thats done.
Alright, well I think that's enough for one post. Stay tuned for the newest Party Patrol and Montage coming up this weekend.
Link changed

Delayed Party Patrol
Hey everyone, Unfortunately Will was having some problems with his PS3 this weekend and could not film the newest Party Patrol. Though the good news is that the newest montage will still probably be coming out on its scheduled release. Keep checking in for updates.
-Alex, Will
MERGE
Big news everyone! Well its come to a time when me and Will have been tired of working on separate channels. So we will be merging our two channels together to become "Brochinima Productions". Yes Brochinima, it comes from the two words "bro" and "Machinima", Will got the idea after I showed him the famous "Bro Rape" from Derrick Comedy. So that's what's up. We will be posting all our videos on this channel, though I will still post updates here. Though there is a good chance I will be removing my old channel. So for anyone who wants to see old episodes, the links will be changed in the columns on the right, not in the previous posts. Also, the blog will change drastically. New name, New link, New logo, almost everything. The link will be changed to:
www.brochinimaproductions.blogspot.com
The link wont be changed until this Sunday, we want to give time to those who look at this blog to see the switch.
Anyways, heres the link to the new YouTube channel:
www.youtube.com/user/BrochinimaFilms
Audio Change
Sadly, YouTube has been cracking down the whip with music lately. So of course Lucky Man in the new seeking pro has been removed. I'm actually surprised, I expected Out here Grinding to be removed, but I guess its all good. So we've replaced the music and the episode is back up with new music, so sorry for anyone who couldn't watch it while it was down. New link is in its column on the right, or scroll down to the last post.
Seeking Pro - Episode 4
So the day comes, for MachinimatorsINC first season finale. That's good and bad. It's good because we finally begin to start working with Skate 2. It's bad because I had hoped that our first season finale would be with a better season. Personally I did not like this first season of Seeking Pro. But thats something different. Anyways, we got some great plans coming up for the new season. Will definitely be a ton different. But before that comes up we got two episodes of Alone, one of which will be showing up in a couple of weeks. So sit back and enjoy the last episode of Seeking Pro that will use Skate 1.
YouTube
Machinima
Just a little update
Hey guys and girls, just wanted to let you know that the new seeking pro will be probably coming out this weekend. Once again I will try to release it on the day that was "estimated" but like always, no guarantees. Like you know, this will be the season finale of season 1 and episode 5 will be kicking it out in season 2, and using skate 2. I'm really excited for that release. But we need time to develop all that so as planned, episode 5 and 6 of Alone will be released after this weekend. Well stay tuned
What?! Other Movie?!
That's right! Another movie! Not really though. Our crew has decided to start production on the GTA 4 version of Days Of Darkness. So there will be two different movies in two different games made by two different teams, using the same script, haha. Itll be insane don't worry about it. It'll probably have different voice actors though. But yeah. Stay Tuned!
Alone - Chapter 4
Hey check out the date on the calendar. Now check out today's date. Hell yeah, right on the spot. Well here it is. Chapter 4 of Alone. Once again, I think we left the last episodes in the dust. For this episode, Make sure you pay attention to the new voice actor, Emil. I found that he did a really great job and really fits the character really well, so check that out. In other news, were gonna release another special in the next few days. Were just gonna let people watch Chapter 4 before we release it. In news for Seeking Pro, the next episode will be the season finale. We are using the first season to introduce Eric and to show a bit of a back story for season 2. I really have a lot of ideas for the next season. Ok, that's enough news for one post, Stay tuned for the Special.

Skate 2, Season 2
Hey everyone! Just wanted to let all of you know that I got Skate 2 a couple days ago. I've been looking around at the spots. There are so many great ones for seeking pro. Except were not going to start using skate 2 until season 2. But don't worry, I really hate going back to skate 1 to film this season so I'm planning on ending that shitty season sometime soon. Season 2 will have a real plot now that Skate 2 has improved the online mode and everyone isn't lagging all over the place. So new characters, new plot, new everything. That'll be a fun time. In other news, I'm still awaiting a few more lines for Alone that were sent in a couple days ago but a few needed to be re-done again. So once those are sent over and finalized then I'll start editing. I'm hoping on getting it out by the end of the week. Stay tuned!!!
Just the Beginning
2 shorts in 2 days! I really love releasing stuff so often. So here's the jackass reel that I was talking about. Consider this kinda like "Alone Chapter 4 Outtakes", except none of this is really gonna be in the episode or even relates to it one bit. Just stars the actors for Alone. So, this was filmed and editing by Will and stars the MachinimatorsINC crew. Hope everyone enjoys it!

Valentines Update
Happy Valentines Day everyone! Hope everyone will be having a fun time with whoever their with. But in other news, I'd like to give you a few percentages for Alone Chapter 4:
Filming: 100% Done
Lines: 60% Done
Editing: 0% Done
So Since that's the case, I' am awaiting lines from a few of the voice actors. Should be getting them by the end of the weekend at the earliest. Once I got those, the editing process will begin and I should have the episode to you in a few days. In other news, Will had a great idea of screwing around after filming yesterday. We got a bunch of clips of us being "Jackass's" So shortly after the release of episode 4 we will be releasing 2 specials. One will be a jackass reel, the other will be a little story that has somewhat of a relation to the current story of Alone. You got to watch episode 4 of Alone to understand what will be going on. Will has written these action packed specials so thank him for this! Alright, stay tuned for episode 4 of Alone in a few days!
Moved
Yo everyone! Just wanted to let you know that i'm all moved in!
I also got some news for ya. So I added some new features to the site here. At your right you will see a calendar of the estimated release date of each episode. This month we will possibly only by releasing Alone chapter 4. Alone will always be highlighted in red and Seeking Pro in green. Also I changed the "upcoming episodes" to "video queue". Ill let you know the next 5 episodes coming in the near future. Then you can check the calendar for when they come out. Remember, the day highlighted is not the release date, it is the ESTIMATED release. The episode could come out anytime before or after the estimated release. Oh, the "Days of Darkness" script was finished. Pixel Networks has already started to produce it. That'll be a great movie. I might just star as a voice actor in it! Aight, well that's all for now.
Forums
Hey everyone. Just wanted to let you know that Pixel Networks just set up a forums page on his website. You can view that here. I will probably be posting some stuff in there at some point.You should also go and become a member on his site. He set up this cool system with "levels" of membership, depending on how many points you get. You get 1 point for each referral you do for our channels. I'm proud to say that I am the Vice President! In other news, the script for Days of Darkness is going well. I should be done with it in the upcoming week. Though this week is also gonna be pretty busy since I'm moving at the end of the week. I got the Alone script written out, so the voice actors are at work. As for Seeking Pro, I did announce a change for episode 4 and on. You will be seeing that positive change. Though with this change, each episode will take more time to produce so they wont come out as frequently. I'm planning on putting more work into Alone, were all really excited about this one. Well thats all for now, I'll make another post once I finish the Days of Darkness script to let everyone know that I'm back to work on the shows.
Big News!!
Hey everyone! As you can see from the title, this is somewhat of a special post. A couple of days ago PixelNetworks (our partner) asked me to do something very special. For those who don't know, PixelNetworks is in the process of making a full length movie. I have been asked to write the movie. Though the main plot and characters have been chosen, I will be writing most of the events of the movie. This is a pretty big honor for me to be writing a full length movie. The movie is called "Days of Darkness" and will be made in Halo 3. More info of the movie can be viewed here. So since I will be putting a lot of my focus on this movie, it will unfortunately take up some of the Alone and Seeking Pro time. Though I'm not going to change the planned release date of each episode. If all goes well we should be able to release the episodes as planned.
Note: My crew will not be acting or voice acting this movie. All will be done within Pixel's crew. All that will be done by MachinimatorsINC will be the writing.
Skate 2
Yo yo, Whats going on! So some updates here. First things first, Seeking pro should be coming out in a couple days. I just got a little more filming to do and then edit. Also, earlier today I got myself the Skate 2 demo. Very sick game, I recommend that everyone gets it. I' am definitely going to get it, maybe in a couple of weeks though. Once I do get it, I' am gonna get used to the game, see the city and see the possibilities for seeking pro. All I have to say is im sure there are many. I already have a story plan for how to switch with the same character and a story for after we switch. Episode 4 of seeking pro will also change direction. Instead of seeing Eric try to get one spot (which i realized gets pretty boring) he will go around a part of the town and hit up other spots as well. So we got a special episode for this weekend and we got a change of direction for the future, big news!
In other news, as you can tell from the end of Alone Episode 3, there was a new character . Pretty much no one should know who he is, you will in episode 4. So since we have this new character is the story, that means a new voice actor has joined the crew. His name's Emil, hope you'll all like his voice. Wow, that was a lot of news for one post! Aight well stay tuned for episode 3 of seeking pro coming up soon.
Alone - Chapter 3
Wooo! It's finally out! Once again, I really gotta apologize for the delay. This should have been out a long time ago! But think of it this way, now you dont have to wait as long for episode 4. Since I took so long to release this, I have a present to make you all feel better. I will release another Seeking Pro episode this weekend. All I will say is that "its different". Ok well thats all for now, stayed tuned for a new episode of Seeking Pro this weekend! Here's the links to episode 3 of Alone.

Editing
Hey everyone! Well I finally finished editing the third episode of Alone. Though i'm not gonna post it until tomorrow night. I'd like to review it and makes a few small tweaks. This episode is definitely the best episode yet, now long walk scenes, none of that junk. Though there's no action, the story gets pretty interesting and I bet your gonna want to watch the next one. The fourth episode should be coming out by the end of February. In news for seeking pro, I did say that I was probably not going to make the third episode this week but I'm starting to reconsider. I have a general idea of what its gonna be, and it wont be hard to film. I will try my best to post that by the end of the week, no promises though.
Seeking Pro - Episode 2
What's Up! I know I said that i would be releasing Alone before I released this but I was feeling a little lazy to edit Alone. I was more in the mood to work on this anyways. So Here's episode 2, I personally like this one A LOT better than the first episode. Probably because the first episode had a lot more issues. I reviewed this many times for errors and I'm sure if you find any errors, they are very irrelevant. Episode 3 probably won't be coming out next week, Its been pretty stressful working on all this so I'm gonna take a break after releasing Alone. Ok, well here's the links.

Production update #2
Hey everyone. I really gotta apologize for the delay for episode 3 of Alone. But I got all the lines just now from the main voice actor. I told him to change his tone a bit so he had to re-do all his lines, and I really didn't realize he had so many lines so thats what was causing the delay. Real sorry about that. But now that I have everything I'll get to editing and possibly have the episode out by the end of the weekend. I'm gonna be spending a lot of time editing from now on. There's been too many problems with the episodes in the past and I'm gonna try to have the least amount of problems for this one. So expect Alone in a few days.
In news for Seeking Pro. The voice actor got his lines to me real quick which is great. I just haven't found the time to start filming this week. Been overwhelmed with work ever since I got off vacation. I'll probably spend a lot of time filming this weekend, hopefully I'll finish. I should have the second episode out maybe in a day or two after Alone.
Production update
Hey everyone. Here's the update on Alone and Seeking Pro. Alone is coming real soon. I'm saying good thing I didn't promise it for the end of last week cause I don't have it ready. We finished filming everything but I'm still awaiting the lines from one of the voice actors. He's been having computer problems lately so it's been hard for him to record. Once I get the lines from him, I'll get to editing ASAP.
In news for the second episode of Seeking Pro. I finished writing the script so the voice actor will be working on his lines this week and I'll prob start filming this weekend too. I'm hoping to release this episode by early next week, depending on the amount of other work I have. If not then it'll be out by the end of next week. Like I said, I'm trying to do my best to release 2 episodes by the end of the month so I'll try to keep to that. Ok well that's all I got for everyone for now, check back in a few days for the next chapter of Alone!
