Today's WoW Moviewatch features a fairly new machinimator on the scene, Mike Brock, who is publishing under Fishspit Productions. This is only his second offering in the arena of music video machinima, but the influence of his mentors/friends Baron Soosdon and Olibith is clearly felt. This video hints at a dark and sinister sub-story, all set to the song "Amaranth" by Nightwish. The only real issue I have is that it feels like the last bit of the video is almost too band-focused. Don't get me wrong -- I love L70ETC, and Techi is cool, but I really wanted to see just a smidge more of the great story, which seemed to stop short to me. (Sorry, no spoilers here. You'll have to watch it yourself.) Beyond that, this is a fantastic piece for someone relatively new to machinima, and I will certainly be keeping my eyes peeled for future Fishspit works!

As always, YouTube is the necessary evil to fit our sizing here, but if you can, be sure you pop over to WarcraftMovies.com and check out the full-size video. It's most definitely worth the download.
