The big question is whether you are going to be able to say a hearty yes to your adventure. -Joseph Campbell … Edit Jan 18: I decided today that I am going to keep my videos here rather than posting on youtube from now on. I no longer have to embed anything to get it [...]

Third Berffffffffffff’day! (Friday.)

blue [silence] part 1

I haven’t been inworld much the past week or so, but when I am, I’ve been spending my time wisely … lol. I decided I wanted a “blue velvet” room for Folly, so I am making a three part series of videos shown from that room’s perspective. This one has lots of mistakes (what else [...]


Whoopo … forgot this one.

Whoopo … forgot this one.

I wasn’t sure I was even going to keep this one up at the tube, but so far, so good. Just so many mistakes … yikes. But still okay, I guess. Learnin’ new thangs all the time. ;=)


Crazy … like a … something … machinima.

Crazy … like a … something … machinima.

I have been buildering our new house at Folly all week and Doc has been attacked by the snifflies so we thought we’d take some time out and visit Flashmans … *laughs* We are nothing if not consistent. I couldn’t resist making a machinima, and using this great song by Gnarls Barkley that my son [...]

…editing practice, tractors, buildering, and stuff

*laughs* This week’s SLife has been incredibly quiet. Not such a bad way to be when first life is filled to the brim with stuff. My short time inworld offers a nice refuge, as it should. ;=) I had a chance to use some old pictures and continue my practice editing on an odd sort [...]

Quickie: CBR Machinima Workshop Numbah Two, Tomorrow

Why do when I think about machinima do I want to start out my posts with a *grin* …?

Oh man … nine months is a long time in a second life, you know? I can’t imagine my SLife without Doc now … such an amazing person he is in every way imaginable. I was truly blessed the night we found one another out roaming around looking at things. Don’t ever let anyone tell [...]

Can you say you did something “splendid” today? I can. ;=)

And *we* surely did! Eight people from our off-world Muses group attended Codie’s first workshop on the MachinimaCam and got so much more from this workshop than we ever expected. We got not only a beginning primer on the MachinimaCam but a totally down-to-earth, easy to grasp look at system technical requirements, resolution, advice on [...]

Song of the Week: If today was your last day

I (obviously …lol) love this song (and these rockin’ Canadians) called “If Today Was Your Last Day” by Nickelback off their Dark Horse album, and have been singing it all weekend so I thought I’d make a little show with the picatures I took with Doc last week for my “Song of the Week” thing.
