Computer-generated imagery at it's best. Full motion video (FMV) is rapidly being seen as an artform in itself. onedotzero collects these audacious cinematic intro, outro and cut sequences from arcade and video games providing some of the most exciting and visceral footage it's possible to experience. The programme includes arcade and console footage by a range of games developers from around the world: from Eidos (Tomb Raider 2) to Namco (Tekken 3).

3 minute culture directors
