[vvp] Machinima GK Leaders Enter SL For First Time
This afternoon the Global Kids Leaders at the Museum of the Moving Image, learning about global issues and machinima through TSL, embodied their avatars for the first time. They learned how to "talk and walk". Below are some photos of their first few minutes, as they learned to change their avatar.






I look forward to returning to these photos with these GK Leaders in a month or two once they not only created their own particular look for their personal avatars but come to identify with it so closely that the images above will appear alien to them.

Ah~ we should take more pictures! ^^...I always love looking at pictures. Its kind of true what they say--a picture is worth a thousand words--but honestly...I think I could take any picture we took...and at the end...describe it in more than a thousand words...there's just so many things...But yeah...so much has changed. Its hard to believe almost. First time I went into SL...I didn't know that there was something outside of GK island...until Joe Teleported me out. Its so strange...to look at these pictures now...and see how we were at the very beginning...its almost like...looking at eggs o.o just plain eggs. They look almost the same--and the moment we begin to change our appearances...we come out of our shells. Its strange to see us all alike...we've all changed our appearances so much--I think the only thing that hasn't changed much is Jack's hair!-- in real and second life ^^~ haha~ but yes yes.. this is a nice memory...maybe at the very end we can all come back to these pictures and reflect upon them...but then again...I don't want it to ever end T-T~ it makes me wish that we could continue this next year (school year that is)...
