Video: System Break: S01E01 - "Probable Cause, Pt. I"

Hey,

Added a little while ago was the pilot episode to "System Break", which can be viewed here. I'm currently trying to get it uploaded to Machinima's website, but there seems to be problems. Anyway, I'm not sure when I'd start filming (the script and voices are already done), but it should be sometime in the near future, since I'm busy working on a film for next year's Toronto Student Film Festival. As you may or may not know, 6 minutes of film takes a LOT of time if the result is to be good...

Thanks,
Andrew

P.S.: The first season will be reduced to 6 episodes, so it could be on a "trial run". If it picks up, the remaining 7 episodes will be aired as "Season 2" for a total number of 13 episodes, the run of a normal season.

News: Bourbon Street reboot

Hey,

I know it's been a while, but it's for a good reason. Once I posted the "series promo" for Bourbon Street, it lacked a good storyline in the beginning, although it would have gotten better. So, the other series I was planning, entitled "System Break", has pretty much taken over my schedule.

I decided that since Bourbon Street took off on the wrong foot, that I would merge (yes, again) that series along with System Break, using the great ideas from both, and making sort of a "superseries". Though with new characters, their personalities are virtually identical to those about to be used in Bourbon Street.

Voices are done cutting, maps are currently being forged in Halo 3, and post-production should be completed in the next week and a half or so.

A clean, copyright-free version will be posted on YouTube and Machinima for general viewing, but my vision, as in the "director's cut", will feature all the music I would have liked to put inside, regardless of copyrights, and will be posted on Facebook for my newly-created group, which is still a work-in-progress, but will get to my taste over time.

So, yeah. Just a heads-up.

Thanks,
Andrew

Video: "Bourbon Street" promo up on Machinima

Hello,

The promo is finally uploaded to Machinima's website. It took a while since they've been working a lot on E3, so their normal schedule was delayed. If you'd like to see the Machinima version, with the few minor tweaks, you can watch it here.

Thanks a lot,
Andrew

News: Bourbon Street season changes

Hey again,

I've decided that, since I'm planning another series on the side (not titled yet), that I'll put Bourbon Street on more of a trial run basis. So, I'll reduce the number of episodes this season by about half, from 13 to 6. If it picks up from there, the remaining episodes will be aired as "Season 2". This shouldn't really alter the storyline.

Adieu,
Andrew

Video: "Bourbon Street" series promo

Hey,

The series promo for Bourbon Street was posted a little while ago on my YouTube account, but is still awaiting upload on Machinima (it can be viewed here). I edited two things on the Machinima version (I added a fade-out in the middle of the video, and changed the "Coming June 2010" to "Coming Soon" at the end). Also, I just moved a few weeks ago from Laval to Blainville (both in the province of Québec in Canada, as you may or may not know), which is about 15 minutes north by car on the mainland, so that didn't help with the video upload delay time.

I finished the promo on May 27th, while I started moving boxes on May 28th, all the way into the early hours of May 31st, although moving day was on May 30th. As you can see, things were quite tight.

Thanks,
Andrew

P.S.: Sorry for the big gap in updates.

Video: Corrupt Blood

Hey guys,

The short film I made in part with a few people at school for the Toronto Student Film Festival (it took place on April 24) has been uploaded and can be viewed here. It is live action, so this is a little different compared to what's already up here, though I still have a HUGE library of great live action short films I have yet to add.

Thanks a lot,
Andrew

P.S.: I know the trailer for Bourbon Street was supposed to be up last weekend, but I decided to make it the first few minutes of the pilot instead (as a "promotional piece"). It should be up by tomorrow.

News: Main theme completed

Hey all,

I just finished the main theme for Bourbon Street. It's quite simple, really, as is the case for most of the shows today, machinima or not, but it's actually very good, and fits the series well, too.

The trailer should be up this weekend (I have a long 3-day weekend starting Friday to work on the show), and, hopefully, the pilot could be uploaded also this weekend, but don't expect it by Saturday if it is.

So, yeah. Just a heads-up on what's going on!

Thanks,
Andrew
