Content Theft, Machinima with Chantal Harvey and Musician Blues Heron
This week on Tonight LIve with Paisley Beebe 27th Sept 09 6pm slt at Tonight Live Studios at Northpoint.
Chantal Harvey one of Second Life’s most respected Machinimaographers, has just been made Producer of the 48 hour Machinima Film Project, which will be held on the 5th Nov 09. On this weeks Tonight Live with Paisley Beebe, she talks serious Machinima, and how the 48 HFP is going to be planned and acheived,where each artist has only 48 hours to create a 4 to 7 minute film and send it in for judging. It goes to 75 cities, and to virtual worlds/games now too. We also get a sneek preview of her yet to be released short film!
Alaskan singer/songwriter Blues Heron streams his live shows from his home studio on a small island on the coast of Alaska. His name is Blues but he writes and plays in a wide variety of styles. He is most influenced by songwriters who have a message or tell a good story backed with some great guitar work like Richard Thompson, Keb Mo, Bruce Cockburn, Eric Bibb and Jack Johnson. Blues will be entertaining us with one of his compositions and talking music with Paisley on this weeks show.
Last Week reports came out of Shopping Cart Disco and Plurk that a large amount of content from 3 Sims, with work from Designer Rebel Hope, Jeweller RH Engel, and Furniture Designer Susan Ramos had been stolen and passed around the grid for free. The Thief then taunted his/her victims with his crime publicly on both plurk and on The Shopping Cart Disco blog. This horrendous act sent outrage around the grid, with one Publisher Saffia Widdershins immediately penning a post on the Prim Perfect blog titled “Enough”. In a month where Linden Labs are apparently going to be sued in a Class Action for basically breaching their duty of care to content creators in Second Life, by allowing Thieves to use the platform of Second Life to sell their stolen goods, is the time right for a protest? a call to action? Saffia Widdershins is the publisher of Prim Perfect Magazine and Host and Producer of Designing Worlds a Treet.tv Show, dedicated to showcasing the content creators of Second Life . She along with some other outraged parties have started a campaign called “Step Up” a proposed day of action and education about Content Theft, planned for the 5th November. Saffia will be on Tonight Live next Sunday to talk about her perspective on Linden Labs responsibility for Stolen Content, what should be done and what “Step Up’s” aims are.
