machinima

   Machinima is the art of creating cinematic films within video games. This is a trailer of an ongoing project of several machinima films that I have created using the Grand Theft Auto V engine. Using numerous modifications to the game, I was able to create stories that would not be possible on an independent film budget or without a cast and crew of hundreds. With this artform, video games are more than just interactive entertainment, they are powerful storytelling tools.
