Tale from Midnight City

A woman in a bar has an early morning visitor.

This was made March 2007, I had been in SL under 4 weeks at the time and was awestruck by the amazing things there. This piece is supposed to be quite abstract and dreamlike, the images melting into the music and sound effects.

Yeah, wonderful, simply perfect!!! I love everything, expecially the framing at the very beginning... and like so much the quote of Hopper (or better, I think it's a quote, tell me if I'm wrong!).
The monster is disturbing and the woman very fascinating...
Great work!!!

Best Second Life machinima piece ever made! I love this, its so haunting. Excellent work Trace.

Silvia, I made the quote up at the beginning, or I thought I did! It's quite a generic saying, so it may well be a quote already somewhere I'm thinking. It may well be Hopper, no idea!

I must agree with KisaiStudios :) Actually I think it is one of the best machinima pieces ever made. Moody and haunting. Great timing and sound. I watch it almost every other day.
