Congratulations, joster285

And the winner of my recent iClone competition is… joster285. Congratulations! The licences for iClone 4 Pro, 3DXchange 4 Pro, and CrazyTalk 6 Pro are on the way to him. It was a very difficult choice, but sadly there was only one prize to give. Here’s his pitch for making a Lovecraft movie using the iClone real-time movie-making software…

“I would adapt ‘From Beyond’. It’s quite an interesting tale about exploration and distorted reality. Of course, I’m familiar with the Stuart Gordon film adaptation, though, but after making several Lovecraft adaptations with The Movies, I feel that iClone would be the best way to tell the story. I would do the movie in the style of a psychological thriller with minimum dialogue. For visuals, when Tillinghast and his assistant enter the alternative dimension, every time the scene switches camera angles, the color scheme will fade into a different color giving it a distorted feel.”

And the winner is…

The winning entries for the Call of Cthulhu: Wasted Land game review competition. The task was to write a review of the game in the style of Lovecraft…

I am not mad. That they found my wretched form in the darkest recess of the library long after closing, staring into a pane of blackened glass and maniacally gesturing at imaginary denizens within, proves only that the twisted minds at Red Wasp Design have succeeded in channelling the Great Old Ones, unleashing their eldritch horror into our unsuspecting homes. I imagine the jaundiced, hunched forms toiling at their arcane art, rictus grins broadening at the thought of the psychological terror they have realised in their “Wasted Land”, at the innocent minds corrupted by this absorbing, addictive “pastime”.
