This short film was made by one of my best friends in SL. He is way too modest about promoting it so I've taken it on myself (with his permission) to bring it here ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6D9K9xTmt0 I love it and think it's probably one of the best films yet made using SL.

This was so poetic and moving. A few of my random thots: - I love when the guy stretches his arms out... that sort of "relaxation" in SL is underrated! And then I watched when he put his hands behind his head.
- It was several minutes before I noticed he was in a wheelchair. Who made the wheelchair? (Is that a Cubey Terra model?)
- Nearing the end, when he lands... I was expecting him to start walking for some reason. I like when the particles swirl around him.
- I wish there were credits rolling at the end! But, the black had sort of a mystique.

Alright, who's responsible for this art? I see a "Rob" named on YouTube... would be lush to see a "making of", the spins and camera angles were really cinematic and great for a music video!

Beautiful, poetic, wonderful! I smiled and I cried. Impressive in its machinima perfection but the best part is the simple and moving story - like with any good movie. I will show it the next person who accuses me of escapism.

Wow, Robbie that was wonderful. Don't ever shy away from sharing your work because you never know who you'll reach. It's an example of all the best that shines in Second Life and the reason it really is such a special "place" for all of us. We take so much for granted each day, thank you for reminding me to count my blessings.
