The Germany based Machinima Production Company
has decided to take advantage of the possibilities
Online Moviemaking is offering.
"We are going to start off with a comic, not a movie though, the title is "Dead Empire"
says ArtificialArtist, Founder of AT.AF. and creator of 'THE HALOIST Trilogy'.
"The story is quite unique and perfectly translates into the comic media, in fact it wouldn't work as great as it does in still-pictures. We chose the SL-Engine for the creation of all the raw footage, after that it's all post-production and handpainting.... i can't reveal much about the story or process, but it is definetly something very unique."
The Studiolot and Entertainment Area will open in Summer.
The Dead Empire Comics will be available from Fall/Autumn 2007.
Most Questions relating to "THE HALOIST III" weren't answered at the press conference.
"We will get to that Topic in time, it is way too early to give a statement other than 'it will definetly be released in 2008'.... It is correct that we halted production last Summer, but this doesn't mean it's the end of the story.... It is a massive project, the most expensive machinima movie ever, we had to be able to budget this. But as i said, 2008 is the date."
