I had a really good time there and I am impressed by quality of movies shown.
Does anybody noticed that overall quality in last maybe year or year and half jumped enormously?
Nice to see that authors learning all the time, I am sure that more serious literature about movie making crafts are beside computers now, more dedication and less hurry.
Maybe I am wrong, I wasn’t around from the beginning, but for me Machinima is out of puberty now. It can drive, drink and smoke, learn from mistakes and understand concept of responsibility.
Exiting movie making times to be part of.

yeah, nice photo collage, John Martin. So glad to see everyone had a good time and found the Expo interesting. Could never have been done without the commitment of Phil Rice. After the disaster of Montreal Expo, he stepped up and simply made the virtual Expo a reality. My hat’s off to you, Phil.
Sure right about improved quality in machinima, Tom. Just thinking about watching 130 machinima films for screening, I was in despair. Not any more though. So many of them were of high quality, I’m really inspired. If you’ve got some time this week, the films are still screening in the various theatres. Head over and watch a couple of reels. Reel 2 was my favorite.
