Transformers Snap into Second Life



Melbourne-based Second Life Cable Network (SLCN) covers yet another blockbuster movie event from inside Second Life. SLCN was chosen as the exclusive live broadcaster of the virtual Q&A session launching the highly anticipated Paramount film Transformers.

Second Life is the 3D virtual world created by Linden Laboratories of San Francisco, where people represent themselves as avatars.

Gary Wisniewski, Second Life Cable Network CEO said "These events are making history, bringing fans from all over the world together to talk live with high-profile moviemakers and cast members. SLCN is dedicated to making sure the whole world, not just Second Life residents, can watch. Our live coverage was featured by Yahoo!, MSN and several international portals."

The media event took place on June 22nd at 9:00 am PDT and featured the film's director Michael Bay, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura as well as starring cast members. An archive replay is available from the SLCN.TV website at http://www.slcn.tv/

SLCN was started in March 2007 and has now established itself as the leading virtual cable channel for Second Life residents.

The event was organized by The Picture Production Company and Paramount Pictures. Archived versions will also be distributed via video sharing websites like YouTube.

Previously, SLCN.TV covered the "Die Hard" press event in Second Life featuring actor Bruce Willis. The virtual television network also participated in the production of the press conference for the film "300" with Frank Miller, cast and crew.
