Hello Everyone!!!
This is the last day of 2008 and I am sitting here having my coffee. It’s pretty windy out and I wouldn’t be surprised if we lost power, but I am already surprised with all the storming this winter and we haven’t lost power yet.
OMG I am not here to tell you about the weather because I made a new video!!! OMG I know, I keep making you watch and you are busy, but I appreciate that you do watch. *claps hands*
Okay, so this one doesn’t have any Second Life in it either..boooooo, random friend shouts ” Ravi when you going do more SL, what is this TWO RL video in a row?????”
I know and I think I’ll be in SL today, I have an idea for an outfit to put together and some video scenes, also my car is in the shop so I might have to go pick it up. Nothing like driving down the road at night and poof out go the lights, don’t worry they did come back on but how scary is that? Not scary enough I guess, since I first happened maybe a month ago and I let it go that time, this time they blinked on and off for about half mile……So, we took the RoadKing to the car doctor to get checked out.
“Please stop talking about the weather and your car!!” Another friend calls out.
OKAY
This video has some thumping beats, some glitchy noises and just drives you to feel like moving around. I hope you can sit still or stand in from of your monitor when the dance mood doth strike and watch some cool visuals I put together.
“ZOMG how did you do this?” friend starts watching and stops.
I took some footage I’ve been sitting on for a week ish from the snow storm, and ran it through New Blue Plug ins adding during that pass, mostly some sweet transition effects to blend my scenes together and the cartooner plug in. I know you can’t tell it’s from the snow storm and it really doesn’t even matter, I just wanted some footage that was moving that I could smear up.
*note* I do plan at some point to make a cohesive video with all my great snow storm footage
*note note* I wish I had a crisp fancy sort of video camera, I am using our little handheld snapper, it’s a great little camera but, I feel the image is a bit grainy for what I want to do.
*note note note* if you have one of these cameras and want to sell it for a good price please let me know…OMG did you ever price one of the fancy camera’s for video, they start around $1500. I am considering renting one to try it out, see which one I like.
This has been an awesome year, I love being part of this community of creative people.
I love watching all your pictures and your videos.
I love dressing up in all the over the top awesome clothing, shoes, hair, jewels, glowing eyes, particles, blinging nipples, all of it, the Second Life artisan community is full of goodness and really progressive artists.
I love traipsing through all your builds, trying out all the poses, and animations, having conversations, exploring constantly, awesome, awesome, awesome.
Humbly I thank you for sharing all of the things that you do with me, I am sometimes very overwhelmed by it, emotionally and literally there are times I can’t keep up but..hehehehe I try and if I’m going to drown I don’t mind being dressed up in a four yip outfit, surround with particles by ColeMarie and Summer Seale, riding a reindeer by Baron Grayson, showing off my legs with my Tesla shoes,sitting in an orchard of trees by Keith Extraordinaire, Kriss Lehmann, and singing with the chorus of angels by Sue Stonebender, all set in a backdrop of music by Torley.
I can’t possibly name the bounty of awesome people I have met this year that have touched my life, and inspired my creativity. Thank you for coming into my life.
I wish the best for you in 2009, may it continue to be filled with creativity, passion and inspiration and I hope we can all share in it together.
Life is best shared.

Ravenelle December Snow Scene 2008
We recently experienced a very heavy, snow, it was so incredibly beautiful here. I took many photographs and then put them together in this video.
Relaxing winter images and music. Interesting texture, light, shadows and shapes, with the snow, frozen fluidly, against the branches.
Torley has released a new album, Holidium and I selected a beautiful piece, Crystaleyes, from that to accompany my images.
Because I adore you so
