Other credits listed at the end of the movie.

Created within Second Life.

*Notes: This movie is too literal in parts, I admit defeat on that! Pleased with some of the imagery. Definitely a huge challenge this one. All the colours and effects (bar 3-5 obvious edits/effects) have been achieved within Second Life.

*Please note this has editing errors in, if you need a copy for teaching or festivals, or other, please let me know and I will give you a link to a reviewed copy. Thanks.

    Hello Lainy,

    Just watch you machinima 'The Dumb Man'. Absolutely love it. Very very well done. Must have taken an age, so wonderfully stylized throughout and an imaginative and delicate interpretation of the text.

    Must have an in-world chat sometime...

    Kind regards
    Robbie.

    Outstanding machinima. Congratulations on your achievement. You should be very proud. It's films like this that start to push machinima into the realm of art. Really.

    whoa. Very cool. One of the most evocative and atmospheric works of Machinima I have ever seen. Bravo! Really pushing the medium forward here.

    HI, I already watched your movie.
    Congratulations it looks pretty nice and it is clear that you did invest a lot of time in it. And it is indeed and outstanding piece!. Bravo.

    I'm student in Germany in Digital media and film studies.
    I'm right now writing my thesis about machinima and I would like to enter into contact with people who has produced machinima movies in order to have their point of view about their work, narratives, techniques, stories, and some other issues.

    I hope you get interested and get some time, too.

    Many thanks for any help in this regard
