Short film: The Rush

June 28, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A tribute to StarCraft from Freddie Wong and Rocket Jump. The name of the piece comes from “Zerg Rush”. Google it. The Rush is often an effective tactic in Starcraft and I suspect that’s true of how it’s deployed here as well. Rush over to this teleport link and swarm your way to a random […]

The cosplay from Blizzcon 2013

November 15, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

MLZ Studios’ video is a collaboration between CV staff, OTL Productions and themselves. It manages to give a few of the most striking cosplays plenty of time while also including clips from […]

A Game of Drones

May 29, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment
