Ok, I'm sure there's a admittedly very small but still existent group of users here who are either very interested in making machinima, and learning about it or people who are making machinima as we speak, and are interested In making a Brawl machinima. We all know the only way to do it (That we know of) is by making the scenario in a Brawl match, then going to the replay mode and recording certain parts, etc.
This is clearly a downstep from Melee's camera mode, but the new and improved visual appeal and content of Brawl is enough to forgive the fact that now smash bros machinima's are a bit more limited.
So i thought maybe, as a community, we could strive to improve the machinima scene of brawl, thus attracting more people to get into it and making Brawl a very machinima-heavy game, like Halo.
I think we can do this by just trying things out, techniques to make camera scrolling easier or smoother, ways to get inspiration for stories, telling fellow machinimators about cheap editing programs, getting voices, criticism, and pretty much everything to help eachother out.
This could be the thread for all those things to happen. So, if your interested in making machinima with Brawl, and getting some tips or something like that while your at it, then come over to this thread now and then, I'm gonna organize it nicely so people can find certain things they're looking for easily. I personally think this is a nice idea, how about you guys?

By the way, just to let everyone know, by discoveries I mean if someone posts something later on like 'Guys, I just found out, If you just press Z and A at the same time while on replay mode, it pauses! (That's not true, just an example) That's a discovery, and it would be listed in the discoveries list.
I hope this gets somewhere.
