What is "machinima"?
Machinima is a form of filmmaking that uses real-time computer graphics engines, often from video games, to create animated movies or scenes. In this technique, the game's graphics and characters are captured as if they were part of a film, using the game's built-in tools or third-party software to record and manipulate the footage. Machinima allows creators to produce animated content quickly and with relatively low cost, leveraging existing video game environments and assets. This method is popular for creating fan films, experimental works, and original stories within the context of video game worlds.
