2005 Machinima Festival This Weekend

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the things-to-see dept.

An anonymous reader writes that "Village Voice has a small article by Julian Dibbell about the Machinima Film Festival that takes place this Saturday (Nov. 12th) at the Museum of the Moving Image in Astoria. The festival is also holding their annual awards on Friday night. For me, the highlight is their honoring David Wright for creating Keygrip (the program behind the creation of Quake movies like Blahbalicious and Operation Bayshield) - which is a nice nod to machinima's roots. "

    Is this a Lewis & Clark thingy?

    No, it's a Center-of-the-Universe thingy.

    Astoria is in Queens, a borough of New York City. It's a subway ride from Times Square.

    Tip-off: "Village Voice," as in Greenwich Village

    You can even download the ROM of each game and emulate it using MAME.

    I'm curious to know if they secured the rights to distribute those ROMs. Cool site to poke around, though. I'll hafta look around more when I get home.
