Let's see, what have we been up to on Second Life? We checked out work by Bryn Oh, a 3D artist and poet/writer. Ms. Oh put together a very fun video called Anna's Many Murders. It actually is a 3D 'book' because it has a story and 3D pictures. The story is about a little girl who likes to kill in amusing ways. The 3D actually looks like it was done in Maya rather than Second Life but it was a good example of setting up a complete static scene.
We talked about creating an animation of some kind in Second Life and viewed a film about jules etienne marey without sound in order to get a quick look into how things are animated.
We briefly checked out Scott Killdall who likes to make Second Life versions of popular fine art pieces.
We watched Jon Rafman's 'KoolAid Man in SecondLife' video. This is a good summary of what is possible in Second Life. The author expends thoughts on what is all means to him. The format of the video is a succession of scenes that demonstrate the various areas of Second Life with narration.
The class has spent some time checking out scripts and understanding how basic ones are created. We also checked out some virtual art galleries in preparation of making some animated scripts or art in Second Life.
