Flash movies are a series of animated videos based around the Wilderness Guardians from 2004 to 2010

Overview

Flash movies were animated and produced by His Lordship, who had been using Adobe Flash to create animations since 2003.[1] From 2004 onwards, he produced five videos: four "movies" and one "trailer", which all had some relation to his RuneScape clan WG. All are fictitious, and the first three (2004, 2005, and 2007) serve as standalone short films which mostly depict the early days of Gielinor (the RuneScape world), the clan, and/or its ARPK ideology. The 2010 "trailer" was a short 30-second video produced as an entry for Jagex's 2nd Machinima Competition, though it did not make the finals. The last film (2010) was a 2-minute video produced for the 2010 Golden Gnome Awards - for which it was a finalist as "Best animation short story" and was played at RuneFest 2010.
