Apocalypsis Ex Machina is my interpretation of the Book of Revelation of John; it is an allegory of a nuclear bomb, where the ignition material is Earth (humans) and the igniter is Heaven. The events of the Apocalypse (4 horsemen, the lamb, the 7 seals, the beast and the dragon,...) are displayed as chemical injection mechanisms that support the preparation of the ignition. The visual style is kept in Gothic convention (architecture, painting, sculpture). Realised as a Machinima in the Unreal Engine 3 (UT3). Music by Cris Velasco from the game Clive Barker's Jericho.

I made this as the project for my master's thesis which deals with machinima.

There are a ton of options WAY better then youtube
Blip.tv, vimeo.com are 2 of my favorites.
Youtube is for stupid kids on skateboards not 3D animation.
Also I believe CGtalk lets you host videos now.
