User:Farinar/Farinar Productions

Farinar Productions is a team of machinimators that produces various forms of machinima. It consists of the two machinimators Farinar and Origano, the latter being the head of the now defunct "FlyingCow Studios." Previously known as "Farinar Films", Farinar Productions has released machinima for just about two and a half years (as of 2010). The logo of the team is a dark brain on a blue background, which, according to their YouTube-channel, symbolizes the stories and ideas that the team constructs in their heads.

"Farinar" refers to the alter-ago of Peter Thomsen, a 19 year-old machinimator from Denmark. He usually makes drama or comedy movies with his most famous being the much-anticipated "The Peasant". Farinar is the founder and head of "Farinar Productions" where he works as a script-writer and editor. Farinar has also starred in several other machinima-movies as a voice-actor. Farinar was alone in Farinar Productions until February 2010 when his friend and collaborator in various projects, Origano, joined the team. With Origano joining the team, FlyingCow Studios was fused with Farinar Productions as well, which means that all machinimas previously released by FlyingCow Studios are now the property of Farinar Productions.

Movies
Throughout the two-and-a-half years that Farinar Productions has produced machinima the team has released various machinima-movies. The team usually makes movies for contests as well as short, funny movies. However, the team's biggest project to date, a trilogy called "The Peasant" is yet to be released. Below is a complete list of movies released by Farinar Productions.

The Achiever
A comedy machinima series written, directed and edited by Origano. Released under FlyingCow Studios before the fuse with Farinar Productions. Origano, a tauren spiceboy, joins the famous TV-show "The Achiever" to win the ultimate in-game title: The Achiever. This is done by getting every achievement in the game. There are currently three parts in the series: "Rapid Defense", "The Duelist" and "Going Down?". It features various characters, among them are: Origano, a turtle, Heigan the Showhost, an evil game-master, "The Boss" and Jarjarlee - a troll servant of "The Boss". Voice-acting is done by Farinar, Sen, AlmightyFarseer and Origano. The last episode was released in October 2009 and it is yet unclear if the series will return.

The Peasant
A drama machinima trilogy written, directed and edited by Farinar, assisted by Origano. To be released in cooperation with Angsty Studios and Machinima.com. The series has gone through a lot of changes since the trailer reached massive acclaim on Machinima.com's YouTube channel. Various setbacks has struck the project, leading fans to be believe that the first movie might never come. Farinar, however, has used the setbacks to rewrite the script for the first movie, promising a better, more clean dialogue as well as a more interesting story.

The Peasant takes us back in time - about 10 years before the first war and focuses on Westfall and the struggles its inhabitants have to deal with when their land is placed under the rule of the viscious Lord Drakenmoore. The nobles of Stormwind were given small fiefdoms by the king of Stormwind as the kingdom had grown far too big for the king to rule it all at once. Drakenmoore, a once noble and just man, was given the land of Westfall and has begun exploiting the land and its people for his own, personal gain. Using his right hand, a viscious warrior known only as "The General" to make sure the farmers pay most of their harvest of grain as a sort of "tax", Drakenmoore is able to keep a tight grip over his people.

The first chapter, while originally believed to be released in 2009, has been said to be released in late 2010 or early 2011. It's working title was "The Peasant: Cost of Freedom" but has been renamed to "The Peasant: Queen's Gambit".
