New widescreen trailer which gives a first look at my upcoming horror short, COPPERMINE. Filmed entirely in Second Life, I started this project more than two years ago. It first began with a short story written by me, titled "Eat Your Heart Out Stephen Coppermine." I later decided to try my hand at adapting it to a visual format. However, I had no money (nor equipment -- and training) to produce the story as a live-action film. Instead, I tried using my past Machinima skills and resources to create an animated version of it in Second Life.
Along with many friends and acquaintances...most notably: Stokely Mayfair, my long-time Machinima collaborator and stylist on this film, Punky Puglist, my awesome and very patient set designer, Aquamina Khalifa who made a one of a kind New Mexican styled home (furnishings and all) to specifications...as well as a great cast that included Candy Kramer (the darling of Mahana Machinima productions) and respected A.R.T thespians Caliban Jigsaw and Kayden O'Connell...to name a few.
Well, there were plenty of bumps in the road folks...and production halted after a very important investor pulled out of the project. *sighs* I thought I would never see this film finished but alas, through encouragement and other opportunities, I'm back in the saddle. I'm set on revising the script, recasting some parts and reshooting the film in the coming months. The set release date is yet to be determined but I'm looking at a target some time next Summer.
Thanks so much for supporting Mahana Machinima through the years and I look forward to bringing you more art in SL as well as RL. Take care and until next time!
waoooooo!! I will expect perfection.
