Where in the WoW is George? is the result of a Masters project focusing on machinima. We don't know much about the project's requirements, so it's impossible to evaluate it in terms of that assignment. However, we can definitely look at the film on its own merits.

The video is created entirely from stills or in-game footage. There's not a lot of the model changing, filtering, or framework that characterizes so much of contemporary machinima. I actually find the purity of in-game footage refreshing occasionally, and the method works out for this kind of quick-cut humor.

The jokes themselves are pretty funny, and kept me interested through the movie. They're simple, fast gags, and everyone performing in this video is obviously having a lot of fun. That kind of love-for-the-show can go a long way toward endearing an audience, and that certainly happened with me.

Rumor has it the creator scored the highest marks possible on their Masters project, so I wish them sincere congratulations.
