What this is all about.
A bit about myself.

Hello, My name is Zachariah Scott.

I've been creating machinima and working in mods and games for about 10 years now, and over the course of my misadventures I've learned the great value of working within a team of motivated and enthusiastic artists, as well as the value of specializations. Several years ago I worked in a machinima team called Lit Fuse Films. In that team we had an incredibly effective and motivated group of specialists, composers, directors, actors, 2d and vfx artists. Each a specialist in their own field. Working like this we were able to become one of the most well known machinima groups on the internet, but more than that, we were all able to make art, and support eachother, and compliment eachothers talents. I want to get back to that kind of environment, but with one key difference.

I dont' want to do it as some single film group, but as an open community that allows everyone the chance to make those connections and find those talented individuals to work with, that I enjoyed with Lit Fuse Films.

The driving motivation behind making this group, is to create an environment where motivated filmmakers can get together and assemble teams to make movies. The goal is to provide a community of like minded volunteers, who, if they choose to do so, can then form into teams or just provide general assistance and support to people who are creating films. That said, I would like it if this community caters more to original works, and less to audio overdubs., so If you are simply recreating some scene from a movie, this might not be the best place for your film, however, if your goal is to make an original work or fan film, this is made specifically to help you find like minded people to assemble a film crew and start hammering out your film in earnest with the help you need.

posters are a great start towards pose-to-pose animation!
