Missing Stages of Machinima Success?

Its a little quiet on the news front the last few days. I'm also getting down to business regarding my move to Edmonton and BioWare. I'll be off-line for a bit as of Wednesday next week when we move so things may get a bit sporadic around here, until I have a solid Internet connection anyways. There should be Internet at the corporate housing I'm staying at until we find a new house so maybe it won't be that bad.

In the meantime its worth popping over to Mu Productions and reading his latest article "The stage before success that I think Machinima is missing"
The "indie" or "garage band" level of production will always be a large part of the machinima world. Some in the community now do not even wish to advance beyond it and enjoy the niche they are currently in. More power to them. I am not one of them, though, and there are very many others in machinima that want to make a career out of producing machinima. Even further, many of us would like for machinima to become its own industry; a real career path option that is not just an obscure relative of its big brother and sister, film and pre-rendered computer animation.

    Good luck in Edmonton, Ken. I know it will be somewhat stressful, but keep your chin up. Don't worry about posting too much. I'll be hanging around...
