Myoelectric is Dustin Valcalda and Justin Loebel. They have been a part of theMachinima family for a while and this latest music video opportunity was right up their alley. “I have a serious respect for the power of audio in a presentation. Finding the right track for a project can be a daunting task, but Paul Oakenfold’strack was awesome on the ears and a blast to edit with,” said Justin. Dustin agrees by saying “I've always been interested in using kick-ass songs in our videos, so to see that it is now becoming a reality is great. It's a perfect opportunity to reach a larger audience and make more great content!” They both go on to explain that there's a lot of talent pooled in the Machinima network, so it's really exciting to see other industries now dipping into that pool to start developing a medium that has never been utilized. Since they’ve partnered, they've received contracts to work in studio with big name game developers like Ruffian Games, Treyarch and Codemasters. They are excited about more opportunities like this that allow creative Machinima talents to collaborate with well-known and respected artists to execute original video-game entertainment.
