Machinima's of my performances recorded by Ascension Media & Lighting, an Alley Catz Club Service.

All Machinima’s are released on YouTube

Cause of the amount of work that goes into each new Immersive experience which are performed live in SL and producing the Machinima, we only expect to release a couple a year. Current release schedule:

  1. February – August 2025 – The Les Mis Immersive Experience (see calendar for dates).
  2. 4th Quarter 2025 – 1st Quarter 2026.
  3. Stay – sometime in the future when there is a better backing track a machinima will be released.

The Les Mis Immersive Experience: Machinima will be viewable post all live performances.

Originally performed live by JPeabody, Monday 10th February 2025, then Saturday 15th March 2025, Monday 11th August at 3am SLT and finally Thursday 21st August at 7pm SLT. This is by far the most complex of all experiences we have put together. Not only does it include two songs from Les Mis, it was also the first experience were the DenPaMic Follow Spotlights were used that fully integrate with a MetaHarpers Performance Engine. From conception to release there was 100 hours of work put into the automation for this experience with an additional 20 hours testing the DenPaMic components.

Two Machinima’s will be posted on Youtube in 4th quarter of 2025, the first will include camera movement as if you went to the performances with the second showing a fixed camera full stage view.

As anyone who uses Second Life knows, region load can cause issues with scripted functions. Every attempt has been made to reduce camera shutter/flicker during the automation movements of the camera view via the MST Engine. Unfortunately, when capturing the audio stream and video simultaneously in real time it is not always possible to remove these in the editing process. Additionally, the hardware used can also be impacted based on its performance capabilities. In my case this is less likely to be an issue for anything captured after June 2023.

The following is used to capture, edit and publish all machinima that we produce in Second Life.
