"Моя Волна" в Яндекс Музыке поставила мне песню группы Breaking Benjamin. Это такой альтернативный рок, похожий отдалённо на Linkin Park, но более мелодичный и без речитатива. Я действительно когда-то подростком много их слушал (и как Яндекс Музыка об этом узнала?). А о самой группе узнал лет 15 назад, когда увидел машиниму с их песней по моей любимой игре Half-Life 2.
Машинима (machine + cinema) — ныне почти забытый термин, не встречал его много лет — это ролик, который делается с использованием трёхмерного движка видеоигры. Хотя сами машинимы и в наше время не редкость, но вот что-то именно слово вышло из употребления, по крайней мере, в рунете. При этом, скажем, запись геймплея обычно машинимой не является, а вот трейлер игры вполне подходит под определение. В современные игры даже иногда стали добавлять специальный видеоредактор, чтобы фанаты делали ролики, способствуя, тем самым, дополнительной рекламе игры.
Конкретно машинима на песню So Cold, о которой я говорю, была настолько популярна, что оказала значимый эффект на известность самой группы Breaking Benjamin, о чём даже указано в Википедии в статье про группу (но я читал об этом ранее где-то в другом источнике). И, согласно заявлению автора, его ролик попал на MTV (в США). И правда, очень атмосферно было под строки "Show me how defenseless you really are..." смотреть на динамично склеенные панорамы разрушенного City17. И вообще текст неплохо подходит под сюжет игры, хотя во многом это достигается его нечёткостью и многозначностью, как любят вообще делать альтернативные рок-музыканты.
Автор клипа, кстати, смог сделать G-man'а поющим с помощью встроенного в движок игры lipsync-редактора, который сама игра тоже использует, чтобы реалистично двигать губами персонажей на основе анализа звуковых файлов с озвученными актёрами репликами. Для 2004 года это вообще был если не прорыв, то беспрецедентное внимание к деталям и качеству реализации. Тот же Ведьмак 3, вышедший на 11 лет позже, имеет серьёзные проблемы с синхронизацией между звуком и анимациями во время разговора. Хотя диалоги в нём составляют в десятки раз более значимую часть иммерсивности, чем в Half-Life.
