“In the twentieth century, the saying was ‘Everyone’s got a book in them.’ In the twenty-first century, we’ll say, ‘Everyone’s got a movie in them.’” - Dave Lloyd
A new year of the overcast kicks off with about an hour with Matt Kelland and Dave Lloyd of Short Fuze, the makers of Moviestorm. This conversation took place in November, and we talk about the history of Short Fuze, the formation of the idea for Moviestorm, inspirations for many of the product’s key features, their business model, their development philosophy, and their vision for the future of the craft of machinima.

This Week’s Hot List (URLs from the show’s content):
Paul Marino and Frank Dellario (of Ill Clan, now a part of Electric Sheep Company) were the third duo to be interviewed at Machinima Festival Europe 2007 by Hugh Hancock and Johnnie Ingram. I spent a few minutes with Paul and Frank to introduce this unforgettable show, where we discussed the events which led to what you will hear.
And Oh. My. Goodness.
Paul and Frank - at some point - do talk about their “Top 3 Machinima Moments,” but not without at the same time covering the origin of the word “fortnight,” the early days of Google, the Island of Rubber Products, Hugh’s black leather pants, Johnnie’s smoking jacket, and more.
The first two interviews of this series were Children’s Television Workshop compared to this. Prepare thyself.
ATTENTION: This podcast contains what one might call a gratuitous level of adult language. Listener discretion is advised.

Matt Kelland and Dave Lloyd (of Short Fuze / Moviestorm) were the second duo to be interviewed at Machinima Festival Europe 2007 by Hugh Hancock and Johnnie Ingram.
This time Matt and Dave talk about their “Top 3 Machinima Moments,” with Matt delivering the answers in a pantomime that translated surprisingly well to the audio. And they manage to give the shortest unofficial Moviestorm plug you will likely ever hear.
