Extreme V Demolition - Chantal Harvey

During the filming of a new 3 episode machinima in Secondlife tm, the strangest thing happened.
Our set started floating off, and actually went flying and exploding - out of control.
As I still had my camera running, I am now able to share what happened. The whole process took around 30 minutes, it is speeded up a little for the films sake. It looks quite beautiful and spectacular in the film - but it had our nerves flying with every prim that went off sim.
The sounds are added in post production.

I really need to say a special thank you to:
* Phaylen Fairchild for driving that Jaguar and staying cool
* Toxic Menges for helping me submit a request to Lindenlab for rollback
* Jason Linden for his awesome help and restoring the set, so we can now continue filming....

This is how we destroyed our first version of 1920s Berlin sim :)

It was a city on a skybox and I simply unlinked everything and made it physical... it was stunning!

What a mess.

Amazing! Wipe your feet before you come inside. I swear, this is a metaphor for something. ummmh I had it just a minute ago. hmmmh

And on another level, it reminds me of my first house in SL tm. I cried till 4 a.m., not knowing the deleted parts were safe in the trash can. I was so worried what the neighbors would think.

Absolutely brilliant. Amazing music. Seemed tailor made for it. Why would you fix that? lol I would pay for SIM that does that :-).
