Premiere of "The nine deaths of Alex Black"

Last Sunday there was the long expected and first machinima of the “Alex Black” series of Noelani Mahana.

It seemed as if we were in Hollywood, LA, with the screening taking place at a replica of the Chinese Theater. Of course there were not that many people, otherwise we would have crashed and seen nothing.;P
All the actors came one by one over the red carpet, in their finest dresses and suits, to the entrance of the theater, where the public, already arrived before the actors, as it is suppose to, were waiting for them.
Noelani, walking nervous from one place to another, having the looks of Halle Berry for this occasion, gave a small introduction, before the movie started. Luckily for us, not all the seats were taken, so we could stretch our legs, without disturbing our neighbors.;)
This machinima is suppose to be the first in a series of “The nine deaths of Alex Black”. Seeing this first one, I have to admit that it was something we are not used to see from the grid, even with moving lips and mouths when the actors were talking.
There was unfortunately one minor thing, a technical error, which always could happen, and which always will occur when it shouldn’t, and where I can imagine that Noelani was about to freak out, when the last part of the machinima was frozen on the screen, and only the sound was to be heard. It seemed that there was something wrong with the upload of the files. But, finally, Noelani has taken care of it, and uploaded the files to the net, so that everyone can see this first original and really impressive made machinima from Second Life. I think Noelani deserved a break now, before starting or finalizing the second part, but, we are already looking forward to this next part.;))

And after the screening there was a party......

First episode of Alex Black's adventures coming soon.....


It is almost D-Day for Noelani Mahana's first episode of her story: "The nine deaths of Alex Black". And it is expected to be worthwhile to see. She has done a lot of efforts to realize this project.
Unfortunately, she is facing some difficulties in these last days before the screening of the machinima. It seems that her videocard is giving her more trouble than needed. We all hope she will get it fixed, so she can finalize the movie.
If you have been reading my blog lately, you know that I was helping her out with the pictures, so she could make posters of every character. Everything has been well thought through.
The première of the first episode is planned for this weekend, but is only for invitees, as there is not too much place to have a big crowd over there.
I can't tell you all the details yet, but be sure, I will report the happening on this blog, as I will be playing "paparazzo" at this occasion.
She has found a replica of the Chinese Theater, where this première venue will take place, on Sunday, February 3rd.

Teaser for Second Life series....

The past week you may have seen some pictures on my Flickr site with the beautiful Noelani Nahama. She had asked me to take some pictures of her for a project she is working on.
Now she has released a teaser of her work, called "The Nine Deaths of Alex Black".
It is about a story, situated in 2035, where, as you already could guess, the world is nothing but chaos, famine and disease. And then there is Alex Black, a female assassin kicking some serious ass, according the writer's words.
After seeing this trailer, I am really impatient to see the series, it looks very promising. The way the camera moves is quiet impressive. Okay, and Noehami will forgive me by saying this, it is not the professional movie trailer, but it has some potential, I think.
Certainly something to watch closely in the near future.

Not necessary to say, that you will be seeing more of our work together in the future.......more to come.....
