Olibith sits down to talk with Blizzard EU

Unless you've been hiding under a rock, you've undoubtedly seen one of Olibith's many marvelous machinima features. We've highlighted a few of them here in our Moviewatch feature, and will undoubtedly do so as he continues to make films. However, it was left to followers of his blog to know anything more about the man behind the gnome. At least, until Blizzard EU sat down with him for a truly fantastic interview.
Some of the highlights of their community spotlight include how Olibith got his start in the field of machinima, how he feels the French (and international) machinima community is evolving, right down to how he manages to balance just the right amount of funny without going into overkill. For all of you budding machinimators and fans alike, this is one interview not to be missed.

Too bad this interview is on the homepage of WoW Europe for about 1.5 week now...

lol @ "machinima"
just stop trying to make yourselves less nerdy. sure its a creative and fun thing for some people but stop trying to fool people (and yourself)and fess up to what you really do.
you make cartoons with video game characters. i would love to see some dude out in public tell people hes a machinimist lol. prolly think he uses CNC mill to create metal parts for the automotive industry.
i never really understood all the hype and never watch these things (so like #2 i have no clue who this dude is cause 99% of the videos posted here i ignore).
but, i also dislike tv cartoons too. i havent liked a cartoon since i was 10, some 15 years ago.

@ Vlad : I wish I had enough time to comment on everything I don't give a shit about. Hope you'll soon find some kind of interest in life though. Or is it writing those kind of comments maybe ?

@vlad: I make Machinima professionally for a well-known and highly respected game developer. That, and there's a couple of dozen or so (from my last count) who do the same.
Awesome stuff, Olibith - and congrats!
