Better Life

Having first identified the music I wanted to use and decided upon
the general story line, I created the props and story-boarded the
whole film using a series of in-world snapshots. This allowed me to
get a view of the pace, continuity and balance of the film before
committing to any filming. I was surprised by how much this felt
like making a real world film, moving the actor and 'camera man'
(my alternative avatar) into position, checking the lighting and at
times having to wait for things not directly under my control to be
right, like the clouds for example. SecondLife is a great platform
and backdrop for this type of movie...you need a prop or special
effect - so you make it.
