❔ What was your first machinima❔
Not the first one you finished. The first one that made you realize you could tell your own stories with a game.
Maybe it was Halo. Maybe it was The Sims. Maybe it was a GTA stunt video, a Skyrim series, an old Red vs. Blue episode, or something you've completely forgotten about.
What was it, and what made it stick with you?

After 2 years, my 5-hour MGS Machinima "Ghosts of Tomorrow" is out! Fully voiced in Polish with English Subs
After two years of passionate work, I am incredibly proud to share that my feature-length Metal Gear Solid Machinima, Ghosts of Tomorrow, is now live!
This has been a massive undertaking for me. It’s a 5-hour experience, crafted using the Red Dead Redemption 2 engine and Source Filmmaker. I really wanted to create something new yet faithful to the MGS universe and lore.
What you can expect:
- Setting: A dual-timeline narrative set in 1971 and 1912, exploring an alternate history for Big Boss.
- Kanon: Meticulously written to fit within the MGS timeline and lore.
- Production: Full Polish voice acting, with English subtitles. I’ve included detailed timestamps/chapters for easy navigation.
- Fan Service: Packed with references for long-time fans of both MGS and RDR2.
I put a lot of heart into this project, and I hope you find it to be a meaningful cinematic experience. I would love to hear your thoughts and feedback!

KiN - Chapter 2: The Mob Den (Minecraft machinima, continued from 2016)
I started KiN as Minecraft machinima back in 2016 (ALONE, recorded in-game with Fraps), and I'm finally finishing the story as a series of Shorts, built from the original world saves and skins and rendered in Blender now.
In Chapter 2, Ray climbs the mob den nobody has ever reached the top of, for the light at its summit, and it doesn't go to plan.
New chapter every 1st & 15th. Full chapter: https://youtube.com/shorts/1DVcdS5s5HY

Where to post adult machinimas ?
Hello, i'm a former p*rn producer, retrained as a Sims4 dult machinimas director for fun (not in a commercial intention).
I know machimas are a very touchy subject beacuse of legal rights, and adult ones even more😁
But i would love to show my work somewhere in order to be seen, so do you know some videos or tubes sites where it is acceptable/tolerate ?
Thanks for ideas😉🙏

Temu Taxi Driver — A Three-Part GTA V Machinima Inspired by Scorsese's Classic
After several months of work, I recently finished Temu Taxi Driver, a three-part film that's part parody, part tribute to Martin Scorsese's Taxi Driver. It follows Beavis Trickle, a recently divorced Los Santos cab driver whose growing isolation and frustration lead him down an increasingly dark path.
I approached this primarily as a filmmaking project, using Rockstar Editor's free camera exclusively to maximize my options for shot composition and visual storytelling. It's been a labor of love, and I thought fellow machinima enthusiasts might appreciate it.

From baling contract to unpaid invoice — a Farming Simulator 25 machinima episode (Podmon E3)
Podmon creator account here. E3 is a full episode of a fictional series filmed inside Farming Simulator 25.
For this episode, the useful storytelling detail is the equipment learning curve: the farmer agrees to another baling contract before he really knows the machine. Finishing the work doesn't resolve the scene; it creates a new problem when the money still hasn't arrived.
The episode moves from that practical task to $18,000 outstanding and four unanswered calls. We're using contracts and cash flow as story stakes, with the gameplay doing some of the narrative work.
Full episode (~18 minutes): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zb27UXftg04
English audio; Polish and Russian subtitles are available.

Machinima update!!!
Hey everyone i know we said we'd be working on the continuation of the GTA machinima we did but we've been busy working on the script for it, the script is done and we will be looking to cast it soon but the biggest delay has been that we have been fully enhancing the original with DLSS 5 and improving the visual effects and color grading so without further explanation here it is!

Meanwhile Alice proves her meticulous efficiency by quietly securing a van of electronic goods for the warehouse. Evan assigns the duo a dirty job for their client Gerald. Robin heads to the Raven Slaughterhouse in Cypress Flats to shut down a rival operation, crack a safe, and secure a secret recipe, while Alice provides cold and calculated remote support.

As well as making my long form stuff, I thought it'd be fun to delve into short form as well. This one is about a bomb defused gone wrong. I hope you enjoy. :)

A Long Trip to Sleep – An Instrumental Story About Routine, Pain and Transformation
A Long Trip to Sleep – An Instrumental Story About Routine, Pain and Transformation
A Long Trip to Sleep is an instrumental visual story made inside GTA V, narrating the descent, collapse and spiritual transformation of a man trapped in the monotony of a meaningless life. Each chapter of the film is set to an original composition that reflects the character’s inner world.
From the lifeless routine of waking, bathing, working and sleeping, to the emergence of his shadow—a side of him that seeks escape through alcohol and women—this journey is as psychological as it is symbolic. One day, everything changes: a woman on the beach awakens a dream of a better life. The man imagines success, love, and fulfillment… but the illusion fades, leaving him alone again.
Through vivid dreams, failed fantasies, and an intense desire for something more, he faces his own frustration and spiritual poverty. Eventually, after losing even his broken car to a thief (a consequence of his own destructive thoughts), he is forced to walk into the mountains, naked and alone, until a symbolic rebirth at dawn. From that moment on, his life transforms: abundance arrives, he becomes someone new, and the dream becomes reality—ending with a long-awaited reunion with the woman on the beach, now from a place of completeness and self-worth.
This is not just a story. It is a symbolic death and rebirth—a hero’s journey told through music, movement, and silence.

Do you like when GTA machinima leans into surreal imagery, or do you prefer it grounded?
