I’ve recently been experimenting with creating videos of Second Life. A lot of people have used Second Life for creating machinima (see YouTube for plenty of examples), and I’d like to do the same.

I’ve been using iShowU for capturing the video, and then editing the results in MediaEdit 3. Camera-handling in Second Life is rather tricky, especially if you want to get slow, smooth movements, and this is something I am looking for solutions for.

Caledon

One of my favourite places in Second Life is Caledon, a Victorian-themed collection of sims owned and governed by the gentlemanly Desmond Shang. As my first attempt at creating a Second Life video, I filmed this tribute to Caledon.

If your computer (or more likely your internet connection) is up to it, try to view it in HQ.
