Red vs Blue Sweeps Machinima Awards

Posted by timothy on from the fightin'-colors dept.

TheNomad writes "The Machinima Film Festival 2003 is over, and the results from the awards are in. Red Vs Blue swept the awards with 3 awards for "Best Independent Film", "Best Writing" and "Best Picture". Katherine Anna Kang's firm Fountainhead did very well too, with wins for "Best Direction", "Best Commercial Machinima", "Best Technical Achievement" and "Best Visual Design". Most of the films are available now, and there is a whole bunch of coverage of the event (with pictures) over at Machinima.com."

    can you tell us exactly what is "Machinima"?

    It's a stupid word some cock coined in order to burn my eyes from their sockets every time it's mentioned on slashdot.

    More specifically, it's 'using game engines to make movies'. Some of the movies are quite good, and are often best coming from sites that don't use the word 'machinima', like Red Vs Blue.

    Was that really necessary? I mean the FAQ isn't even linked in the article.
