Tutsy, Pixie & Nitro backstage at Machinima Expo Award Ceremony |
This year’s Machinima Expo
has just concluded – it was a good day at the races!
Of the six major awards,
Tutsy’s films were awarded three.
The final results are:
The
“Open This End” Award for outstanding film making
was awarded equally to three films:
The 1st and 2nd Jury
Prizes were awarded to:
- The
Last Syllable of Recorded Time by Tutsy Navarathna
The 3rd Jury Prize was
awarded to:
- Wulf
and Eadwacer by Hypatia Pickens
The 4th Jury Prize was
awarded to:
- Unfinished
Paintings by Miron Lockett (US, iClone)
The Grand Prize Winning Film was
awarded to:
If you get the chance, I’d especially
recommend watching Miron Locket’s ‘Unfinished
Paintings’. This is a great, fun high-tone production made in iClone by a
clearly extremely talented guy, musically and visually. Unfortunately I haven’t
been able to locate the film on the net to embed here, but when I do I will.
Hypatia Pickens’ ‘Wulf and Eadwacer’ is based on an Old
English poem and has a great rhythm and beat. Definitely worth watching.
‘The Chapelside Deception’ by IceAxe is a more conventional narrative
film consisting of “a beginning, middle and end”. Created using MovieStorm, it
tells the story of corruption in a soccer team during the 1970s.
As part of the Expo, Tutsy
was asked to produce a video interview based on questions supplied by Ricky
Grove. I provided the translation from French to English.
For the first time, we can now
release that interview publically.
Enjoy it best in 720 or
1080HD!
