Well this is kind of late in announcing, but here it is anyway. The second and final guide from me is now out! This one is called
Source Machinima Cinematography.
The other guide, Choreography, focused almost exclusively on animation. This guide covers pretty much everything else involved with making a machinima film in the Source engine. If you want to know exactly how I process everything after I have it animated, this covers all the steps. It covers recording methods, camerawork, audio/video editing, and even some bits on getting ideas and writing scripts. In my opinion, the most valuable parts of this guide are being able to create custom camerawork (which includes slow motion), recording without any dropped frames, and my secret recipe for motion blur. And like the other guide, I didn't set the price on this, but I did try to make sure it was as thorough as possible.And for everyone waiting on FM, CP, and the pilot episode, I'm working on them; asking daily about it really has no impact on the production time.

Do you get any of the money made off of these guides?
And when are the new FM, CP and pilot episodes going to be out.
Ill be back same time tomorrow to ask the same question.
Nice to see artists sharing their knowledge. Don't think I will ever buy it because I'm not into filmmaking of any kind, still nicely done!
were can we get it?
nice, i never knew u even made a 1st one lol anyway will this be out in the uk?

Ross will definitely receive a percentage of the profits and anyone, anywhere can but it (even in the UK)!
lol, "...asking daily about it really has no impact on the production time." Don't feel rushed, I can wait for a good thing.
Sooo...ahh...When's the new episode coming out?!
Your the best, man, thanks for sharing your vast knowledge of cinema!
:(
I never knew you made any guides! But I'll certainly check them out, where can I find them?
Also, I'll be there with Combine 017...asking every day if you've worked on the new episodes yet! haha
Good to see that the second one's out after all. Although I'm not personally interested in buying this, I hope it will help you out financially as making free to watch machinima frpm what I understand doesn't bring in a lot of money (RoosterTeeth excepted).
Still though, I'm a bit confused why everyone's asking where to get the tutorials as there's a link in the very post to noesis interactive. Oh well, it's not my right to complain on what the internet does to people (I think I've contributed my fair share as well) :P
I'm not sure if you have any say on the advertising copy, but one's interest is "piqued", not peaked. Not that'll stop anyone from buying the thing, but quality first, I always say.
I wonder what that pilot episode is going to be about...
how long do we have to wait for the CP episode to come out your murdering my head its slowly being attracted to the computer screen (to smash my head on)
Combine 017: Yes, I've received TENS and TENS of dollars from it!
Pseudonym: Yes, I did NOT write that, I most certainly know the correct term. I hope it's not printed that way on the case...
Anonymous: I really want to get back to CP myself, so don't worry, it's coming.
"Awesome!
But that didn't answer my question whether FM 11 and other CP episodes will be delayed because the new website isn't working.
Well of course asking daily has no impact on the production time. It takes hourly asking to do that.
Come on fanboys, work harder!
"asking daily about it really has no impact on the production time."
But it does show how excited we are for the next installments of all three.
Guess I should have said, Congratulations.
When will the new episodes be out? Just like Combine 017, I will be back tomorrow whether or not I get a response. Hooray for Spam!
Nice
Hey Ross Scott are you gonna finish the website because I only saw the website once I put the website in my favorite
P.S. I like CP and FM
Cp + FM = comedy
Ross,
Have you considered investing those tens and tens of dollars into the fast growing industry of personal air dirigibles, also known as blimps, or Zeppelins? Invest today, so tomorrow you can forget about everything and float around in a blimp.
When will the new episodes be out?
Sorry I missed saturday, I was at a rodeo. That took place in a maximum security prison.
ross i want to have hot sex with your mind.
Do you find that you are learning more and more about the art of Machinama every time you work on them?
The blimp comment above mine is full of win.
Your the man Ross!!! Keep up the good work, and best of luck with the new website :)
I can't wait for the next Freeman's mind episode. Can you give me a date at which you expect to have it finished? That's all I ask.
When will the new episodes be out?
Forget what I said earlier. It's probably going to be every other day.
I really enjoyed this guide, you really are a great teacher.
I decided to test out your motion blur method on some test shots filmed in Garrys Mod and I have put them on youtube, If you want to see the tests they are here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Sn9B-QHkcc
