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.

Created for THE PRODIGY - RUN WITH THE WOLVES COMPETITION

Sanitarium - Distant Voices

Back in 1998 I was playing "Sanitarium" and listening to the "Razorblade Suitcase" by Bush (still one of my favorite albums). I happened to notice how well the cinematics of the game fitted with the song "Distant Voices". In fact I remember trying to synchronize the video intro with parts of the song. I always wanted to create a mashup video of the two but that didn't happen then mainly because of my limited video editing resources...

Lately I stumbled upon some videos of "Sanitarium" on YouTube and the idea sparkled again in my mind. Of course I don't take credit for any 3D animation or the music. I just did some editing work to visualize what I had imagined.

Watching it now, I can say that it is better than I had hoped for - in fact I feel it's something worth sharing, that's why I'm presenting it here :)

I had complete control over this media element, doing all the concept, processing, editing of the video and audio. A custom voice over, some commercial electronic music and a tad of post-fx work can go a long way :)
