Holden is making a list of things he is seriously interested in. Machinima film making is something he wants to learn in the next year. I am excited for him. I found a site that lists programs needed, but they are quite pricey programs. Does anyone out there know how to do machiniman film making and what is the least expensive route? He wants to use World of Warcraft as the base for his short films. I am willing to help him. I know this could be a very slow learning process, but one worth looking into now. We watched part of a tutorial a machinimist, Oxhorn, gives on Youtube. Blizzard Entertainment (WoW) supports machinima through contests. We also got on machinima.com. I will email them, if needed.
If anyone out there knows how to get started, please let us know. Links would be great! Thanks!

I offered Holden my camera to make videos. But he is really interested in making machinimas. Machinima is a type of film making that uses video games. There are certain programs that are needed. I am not sure which ones we need or which ones are the cheapest. I have ordered a book through our local library called 'Machinima for Dummies." I am guessing that will answer a lot of questions.
He is at the age that he is interested in something one week and not the next. So I am leary about spending a lot of $$$.
Thanks for the free trial idea. He asked me about it again today. I am waiting on the "Machinima for Dummies" book to see what programs we should try out.
I love all the places life takes us in a day! Kudos to you and your family, Hilary!
