The Machinimate competition run by the EIEF and Channel 4's IDEASFACTORY has extended its deadline from Monday 1 August to next Friday 5 August. If you're a budding film director with a genius idea but don't think you have the cash to make a Hollywood-style blockbuster, you still have time to enter the competition and you could have the chance to develop your own cinematic experience with the help of Quake 3, Machinima.com's founder Hugh Hancock and Machinimation software from Fountainhead Entertainment.
For inspiration, head to machinima.com, the Academy of Machinima Arts and Sciences, Red vs. Blue, The Strangerhood, La-Interactiva, Ill Clan, the home of the Cantina Crawls and, of course, Leeeeeroy Jenkins.
