It took a year, a new computer, 3 months of planning, 350 gig of raw footage, approximately 45 test videos, and a bunch of wonderful fabulous people to help me.

But it’s done, I am very grateful to a heap of great people who have helped out, been a shoulder, told me to get off my bum and do it, and generally been completely indispensable.

It’s a labour of love, sat percolating in my brain for months, til the idea had cooked enough.

Wanting to turn the classic Fairy Tale on it’s head was always something I had wanted to do. After The Princess and the Pea – which was classic Fairy tale in every sense, I wanted to make the audience comfortable, then make them sit up and go “OMG!” Did it work? I hope so.

I loved, hated, and dreaded every moment of filming.

It was a difficult birth. But I loved trying new stuff out, looking at things from a different angle and the feeling of relief as it was live on YouTube was fantastic!

Watch it here in glorious HD as big as you can see it.

So I get this shiny new blog, and then I abandon it – nice eh? Well I was in the US visiting some good friends, but now I am back, and have some exciting stuff coming up!

First off is Pornosophy – opening night is monday the 6th of April

Pornosophy – Loglady Loon, who was the brains behind the fantastic Freak Show is opening a new exhibition – the timing is interesting given the recent LL decision regarding adult content. I am going to have fun with this machinima, I can tell!

Once I have the full details of the nights events, I will post them here, along with the finished machinima.

Hmm a lot has happened in a few days!

Much crapness that Safari 4 beta doesn’t work with wordpress admin page properly – I reported it, but still crappy :S Ohh and Vimeo uploads don’t work either. I sense a trend.. anything I try and use LOL

The SL community has erupted following the announcement regarding the Adult policy that Linden Lab is going to put into place. I have particular views on that, that I am sure I will spout forth on at some point, but seeing as the greater and the more illustrious have already done that, I am not going to bore you with that yet, and certainly not til more information becomes available.

Fishies was accepted into a RL film festival! Wow what a huge shock that IM was! Fishies will be shown at the Indie Music Video Festival in May. Needless to say Sesi and I were grinning like Cheshire cats over that little nugget of news. More info when I have it.

So the Ning machinima group (which you should join if you are into Machinima and on SL), had a mashup kinda thing the other day. We all went to a sim and played instruments and had a great giggle for a band thing, and then we all filmed it to see what we could come up with. Here’s mine – the lag wasn’t good, and it was late for me, it’s just a bit of a giggle really – isn’t that what it’s supposed to be?

Anyway, here it is…
