First image of actual character

Well hello,
Although the idea of me writing the script got wrecked, destroyed and exploded violently (PEP project due tomorrow), I talked about the idea with my mum and sister, and they helped me improve the little mess inside my head.
So yeah new idea, I actually really like this one, I feel like it can tell a simple story, and yet enables to viewer to submerge into the fine details for a deeper expierience.
Having said that, the name is no longer "Rescue is inevitable" as it has nothing to do with the script. I'll see if I can change the blog name tomorrow (I'm on a really awful pc at the moment, thus all the spelling mistakes.. the keyboard sucks!)
Anyway, here is most likely what the main character will look like, thsi is not final, I have to discuss this on a meeting with my supervisor
(Mr. Rawson how about friday lunchtime? I *hope* your free! :))
Without further audieu, here's the mysterious character! (No, I won't tell you his name!)

Inspiration!

Oh my god oh my god oh my god!
I have a brilliant idea for a script (you took your bloody time creativity.. disappointed in you!)
This one isn't exactly a comedy, but it fits in even better with my goal
(showing machinima as an art of movie making and not just some silly video game stuff)
Im off to write it!
Wish me luck!

WoWmodelviewer and why its amazing.

I love that program. End of.
For the past hour or so, I have been making characters in WoWmodelviewer (have 5 so far - a human male, a female blood elf, a female troll, a male worgen and a male orc)
Since there are no creative script ideas in my head at the moment, im just making characters that I could use in the background, looking at their animations and playing with lightning.
My sister is currently making one for me, but when she's done I'll upload screenshots of those characters.
Whether I end up using them or not doesn't matter, I'm at the getting used to the program stage, as it's been a while since I used it, and it's been updated A LOT.

Also in regards to Mr. Rawson's comment, I'll buy Adobe anyway since I always wanted to make machinima, and will probably continue even after the personal project, and because I prefer to work from home, and not at school (can stay up all night if the creative juices are being produced)
Right, back to models!
*sarcastic woohoo*

Checklist

What I need:
[]script
[x]WoWmodelviewer (working)
[]Video editing program (Adobe ~500chf)
[x]audio editing software (Audiacity - free and advanced
[x]screen capture program (WeGame/fraps)
[kinda]microphone (built in mac, iphone, or borrow from friend)
[x]WoWmapviewer (not yet working)
[x]voice actors

So I need to work on my script, once thats done create all the characters that appear in modelviewer, before that download the free trial of Adobe and the other programs.

The glorious moment of sweet victory

Guess what?
Finally, thanks to my amazing, awesome supervisor, the windows computer downstairs has WoW and WoWmodelviewer working! :D
This means that;

• I can now make the character models
• Once done I can animate all their actions, anything they do in the movie, from a simple drop-down list.
• Then I add the animation to fit in with the background
• Add voice acting, sound fx and music
• and BOOM machinima is done

This means that throughout the next week or so, I'll be creating the characters (sounds like a long time, but there are trillions of combinations. Trillions. And the characters have to look good, wear fitting clothing, be eye-catching and not too fantasy so that everyone can watch and enjoy)

When the characters are done, I can take my script, and record the movement of every character, as I need it. When all the animations are recorded, using WeGame client, I can record the world inside WoW (or use the map viewer, if i get it to work) and add the characters (animated) to the background.

Then all I need to do is ask the people that I need to voice act, look up some awesome sound effects (or use the ones from WoW... massive library of effects right there) add some music... possibly made by myself, I'll see how that goes

and it's done.

Sounds easy, but its a hell lot of work.

Excited nevertheless, 

Let the work begin!
