While waiting for the tools to mature, here’s a little something to help you pass the time…:

Upcoming project: Rumplestiltskin (or however else it is spelled…)

Every mascot needs a villain (to battle with or whatever)… this is him/it:

The textures/blender-files for it are here: Lord Kezzak (this includes a sword he will carry in both his hands…)

A small video showing how he looks from all sides is here: Lord Kezzak

Hi all

Work on the mascot has begun, here’s a concept art on how he looks like:

Original Artwork: (c) 2008/2009 Elena Pini

We’re currently looking into getting it fully modeled and rigged in Blender :)

News

Work on my WoW 2 Collada Exporter (written entirely in VB.NET) is progressing nicely, if you want to help, let me know :) …:

Now, I “only” have to take care of:

- WMOs

- Textures

- Lightings

- GeoSets

- Dealing with MPQ and BLP directly

- probably a 1000 other things…

Welcome!

Among other things, this blog is used to coordinate and document all efforts around the creation of a machinima about the imaginary ascent of the World of Warcraft guild Fluffige Mammuts.

Story

This movie is still in the concept phase and nothing much besides the script/story and the basic concepts is defined yet.It will be a “feature” length movie (i.e. 40 minutes or longer) with a compelling story (along the lines of fantasy road movie such as Lord of the Rings, Eragon, and all the others).

Style

There will be extensive narrative elements to overcome the limitations of facial animation within the World of Warcraft client and to cut down on voice acting requirements. The movie will be in English with German subtitles (and any others that someone wants to add).

Technology

It is currently planned to create this movie entirely in Blender. This is usually called hybrid machinima. The will be no shooting within the World of Warcraft client or on private servers.

Soundtrack

This machinima will have its custom scored epic soundtrack.

Help

As always with projects of this size, I am dependent on many people working together with me on various functions. This is a non-professional endavor, so funds are extremely limited for the time being.

What we are currently looking for:

  • Coders/Tools to get World of Warcraft models and animations into Blender
  • Riggers and Animators (Blender)
  • Modellers (Blender) (for the few things that have to be remodelled/built from scratch)
  • Co-Composers (Score)
  • Songwriter (Title Song)
  • Foley and Sound Effects
  • Co-Authors (Script)
  • Web designers and managers (if you look at this site, you know, what I mean *grin*)
  • Narrator (think James Earl Jones or something in that area)
  • Sponsors (if you think this project is worth supporting)

Thats all for now, cheers
