Second Lives to Air in Second Life
Justin Bovington of branding and virtual world services company Rivers Run Red sends news that his firm is presenting a Second Life screening of the Second Lives series of short documentary films produced for the UK’s Channel 4. The four three-minute films will be shown at noon Pacific time on Monday, August 7, in Rivers’ Avalon sim — which makes their showing in SL simultaneous with their airing in the UK. Plus which, the SL screening will feature a Q&A with the filmmakers immediately following. Should make for interesting viewing, and a nice use of the virtual world for media delivery and to add value to traditional media outlets. And according to Bovington, the filmmakers have spent a lot of time on the pieces, and definitely “get it” where SL is concerned.

[…] Just found this post on 3pointD. Apparently, a documentary has been filmed about Second Life by Rivers Run Red. What makes this great media interaction is that it will be co-broadcast (slodcast?) inside of SL at the same time it be broadcast in the UK for Channel 4. […]
Note: Rivers didn’t make the doc, they’re just presenting it in SL, as far as I understand.
