New Episodes From SecondCast, Grid Review
Episode #53 of SecondCast is up on the SecondCast site (or can be listened to in the sidebar here, or downloaded from iTunes), and it’s fairly hilarious right off the bat. Like really hilarious, as in the first three minutes will have you on the floor. And the bleeps! Hear Lordfly file an abuse report against Johnny’s face. Pretty excellent stuff.
When you’re done with that, go check out Episode #1 of the relaunched Grid Review, the machinima news project being produced by Edelman and the Electric Sheep Company (sponsors of this blog). Now benefitting from the Sheep’s absorption of master machinimators the Ill Clan, as well as expert narration from SecondCast’s own Johnny Ming, the Grid Review is suddenly totally entertaining (whereas the old format was only somewhat entertaining in its own format, if you ask me, despite the presence of some great machinimators). Let’s hope they can keep it up.

We were just doing what we were told. We were to be seen behind the desk speaking, be dressed professionally, have the logo on the screen while we spoke at the desk. We did what we could for working as individuals, vs. having a team of four or five, including a writer. It really burnt us out. I wish them the best of luck.
Also, I should point out that Trent Hedges did the writing and the Machinima. The ILL Clan edited the footage.
That’s what I was trying to get at, moo. The talent was there, it just might have been shoved into the wrong container maybe. Also, trying to do that stuff solo has got to be exhausting.
