Four Eyed Monsters in Second Life
Wednesday, December 13th, 2006It has been an exciting few days, which has ended with the release of the Four Eyed Monsters Podcast Viewing Area, now available to visit on Sheep Island. I was introduced to the Four Eyed Monsters film by Jerry Paffendorf (a.k.a. SNOOPYBrown Zamboni) and later when approached by on working on the build. I was really excited to help due to the creative nature of the film, I felt that a build could be done to recreate the same creative atmosphere. There were to main goals I had for this build, the first was to best represent the film (which is the goal of any build), but the second was to be able to present it in a creative, interesting, and different way than we are used to, a theme similar to the film. Rather than making an upright 3D build, this build is large notepad, and forces you to interact with the notepad by looking downward. The idea of a flat build in a 3D space was pretty mind-boggling at first, but it was such an interesting “new” idea that it also turned out to be a perfect representation for the film.
