UPDATE 1/07/09 As of right now i would love to continue my series fresh start but my laptop will not run the sims 2 at all anymore =/ I am really sorry for the long long wait but just in case you were wondering i do have all of the characters saved onto a disk so if in the near future i get a new computer i would really like to pick up where i left off. Also i really dont know much about the sims 3 right now but if it allows filming then i would love to recreate the characters on there and continue where i left off. thanks for your patience and thanks for being a fan. hopefully i will get all of this fixed soon. -sims2moviemaker
i am currently a high school student. i have just recently got into the whole machinima thing and its now one of my favorite hobbies. fresh start is my first series that i've made and i am putting a lot of effort into it. i guess you can say that the main character Connor is roughly based on me, as far as his personality goes. but i do not have a high paying job or an alcoholic dad. haha. thanks to jaydee227 for her VERY helpful tutorials, i dont think my videos would be good at all if it wasn't for her. as for inspiration, music is probably my biggest inspiration. i listen to certain songs and i think, "wow this would be a really good song for this type of storyline.." and it just goes from there.
a couple things i ALWAYS get asked i'll answer here for everyone.
Q) Where did you get the plane in episode 1 and how did you make them fly? A) i got the plane from modthesims2.com and i made it fly using green screening and sony vegas 6 (so yes its not actually flying)
Q) where do you get your hair and clothes from? A) i get most of my stuff from modthesims2.com since it is free. a couple of the items i've made and others i've gotten from various other sites that i honestly don't remember =/
Q) How do you get your camera angles so smooth? A) i searched for sites that could help me smooth out my camera parameters and ended up finding a really good tutorial on sims99.com (don't know the exact link)
