A lot of people seem to be upset that the Naughty Machinima site has a lot of activity on it. And that some great films are being "overrun" by not so great films.
This is an old argument.
So I'm going to take a little bit of an opposite approach than most of my friends. To me Naughty Machinima should be a place to go to UPLOAD movies. That's sort of it.
It's really up to us to create the community we want to create.
The problem isn't too many films. Enthusiasm is a good thing.
I know I was terrible when I first started. Some of these people will surprise you later, I promise.
The real problem is that most of us have stopped blogging other people's great films like we used to. And I am the most guilty of all!!!
It takes time to do the screen shots. And there just are a lot more of great films than there used to be.
People talk about a Golden Time in our Pornstars group, like everything we did was special. That's not true.
When I started Kathrein Henhouse and Ruff Brocco were the only two making films.
Eventually the Aurora's, the Deelites, the Serenity's, the Scooby's, the Rayven's, Hard Rusts, Thorgals and the Pixie Rains all came along and raised the level of filmmaking. So instead of two great filmmakers, now we had about a dozen people who could make interesting films.
Today, we are in an even more amazing time!!!!
Second Life is changing and letting us do things we never thought possible, with great new viewers and now Mesh is coming. There are also great new technical changes to how we edit and capture the films.
And now there's a new generation of amazing filmmakers, who are coming along. While most of the same directors of the good directors from the past are still creating. But on top of those greats, we've added AMAZING new talent. Our film world would be not nearly as exciting without the amazing Rysan Fall, Quinn Ying or Natalia Xenga. Not to mention filmmakers like Bert Jedenburgh, Aleah or HaileyMarie Redrose.
So if you like a film, help it to stand out. Blog it. Put out a notecard telling people this is your pic of the month. Find offbeat films that nobody loves and adopt these little orphans as your own. Point out directors you think we aren't paying enough attention to. That's part of the reason we are inviting others to join this blog. To help us point out who the next Deelites and Serenity's are.
So please...Don't worry about how many films any one makes. Just keep pointing out the good ones.
And we will make the community we want to make.
