The PRODIGY - Run with the wolves (Machinima L4D2)

This is a machinima video of the Prodigy song, using the Left4Dead 2 levels of Dark Carnival.

Two nights of gameplay and recording and two nights of video editing - I'd say this was a pretty fast turnaround.

I think the final video has a rhythm and somewhat of a rising pulse, even an evolution to the story.

Overall it was more improvisation than planning - that's why I consider it a prototype of a video clip for the song.

Artwork: MAKIS 2010

In 2010 I became active in the electronic music scene after a quite a few years (2005 in fact). Creating a new image was essential and after a lot of research I ended up going with a beach urban plasticine kinda look (trust me, seeing the end result makes more sense).

Original graphic work by Fred DL was invaluable. I processed my personal photos and did additional graphic work for the end result. A short (45min) photo shoot gave me all the visual material I wanted to create the artwork for the whole year.

I ended up with this collection, named "Beatz Sound" due to the phonetic similarity with "beach". There could be more images of the likes added later on as the need arises:

Back in December I did one first sorting of the photos I'm going to use and ended up with a some which where interesting but couldn't use them in the above theme. So I decided I would improvise on photo filters and from that a second collection came out (technically it was created first but whatever) - the "CyberGrunge 2010" photos:

These photos are around the net supporting my music wherever available, visit the music website for more: www.makis.info

Stardome logo

This is the first logo created for the online community Stardome This is a blank template to be used with any coloring / contrast: Also tried a colorized version in case it's needed This is an alternate version of the logo, showing all the characters Not sure at this point if this second version will be used, although it was the first concept drawn before going to photoshop...

Eco + Geeky T-shirt designs

It seems that I'm on a roll having ideas for T-shirt designs.

I actually consider them (both) to be trademark icons and portraying very successfully what I had in mind:

The power is in your hands - spread the word.
