Abstract
Two academics at a regional university in Australia explore the differences between creating machinima and traditional video for their Higher Education students. The media is used for their undergraduate first-year online Education and Accounting students. Outlined is an overview of the two medium and their conclusions as to the machinima/video they prefer to use as a resource for their student and why. Machinima and traditional videos have been used with the author's students over the past ten years. In Education, the use of machinima/video has been an added resource and was not compulsory to use. With the Accounting students, the machinima/video were used to complement a compulsory component of the student's study resources. Due to this, there were many more views of the machinima/video of the Accounting students due to the videos being used as a resource for assessable tasks. This paper explores the academic's perceptions of the benefits of using the two medium.
