Tiny Nation Premiere

We're happy to announce the world premiere of our new short film - TINY NATION!

Follow the heroic adventures of a band of motley mammals.

They're cute. They're small. They're trying to take over the world.

Together they raise the question – WHAT'S IN YOUR BACKYARD?

Look for more - coming soon!

I'd like to take a moment to give special thanks and acknowledge the amazing contributions of Damien Fate, Sean Daniels, Jason Crisman and Michael Johns and of course Paul Jannicola, Frank Dellario and Tom Donnelly. Many thanks also to Razzi Rockett, Stacie Ball and Calamity Hathaway.

Really awesome job! Glad to see what you guys have been up to. Looks like it must have been a lot of work, and you have once again pushed the boundaries of what Machinima can do.

Sheer delight! A kind of "Hogan's Heroes" with little furries. The characters are marvelous; the look is excellent. So many great things about this production (editing, music, sound, etc). Bravo!

brilliant stuff :)
written by Rusch Raymaker, October 08, 2008
kudos to a most wonderful and brilliant production in all respects from scripting, editing, sound, direction and animation and i simply love the last line which really topped off the humour and satire :

"Is it true that what that does not kill you makes you stronger? ....but it hurts like hell..."
LOL

Hey Ken, we didn't remove the video, it's embedded flash. If you have flash, when you mouse over the image in the blog, you should see a play button show up, just click anywhere on the image and the flash video should start playing.

Funny and amazingly smooth for SL
written by caliandris, November 05, 2008
I'm also amazed at how high a quality you have achieved with this. I shall be watching to see the tips you publish about how it was done. I already know how great the avatars are, having bought a couple. Brilliant!

I'd like to understand the apparent editorial contradiction inherent in keeping the swearing in, but bleeping it out....

I strictly recommend not to hold off until you earn enough cash to order different goods! You should get the home loans or just collateral loan and feel fine

What is the main idea?
written by essay writer, June 21, 2010
Well, that is interesting, sometimes even funny. But what is the point? Is it some kind of cartoon for vegans? Graphics reminds of computer games from my childhood.
