Altered VIRTUAL DRIVE-IN screening tomorrow night, and YOU are invited!

Alteredmovie

We are excited to announce that Altered will be playing tomorrow night, Tuesday, December 19th at 8:00 PM EST in the virtual world of Second Life, and everyone is invited! Admission is free, but seating is limited so show up early.

Ed Sanchez and some of the other people involved in the making of the film will be on hand to talk shop and answer questions after the screening as well.

The event marks the grand opening of Flux’s Drive-In on Motorati, which is sponsored by Pontiac. Read more about it, and get a special link to the location here.

What is all this virtual alternate world stuff you ask? Remember 20 years ago, when everyone was predicting that people would stop going outside and live virtual lives and the world would end because of the internet? Well, that’s Second Life! If you haven’t checked it out yet now is a perfect time to experience what all the hoopla is about, and a great chance to hang out with friends and watch a scary movie.

Download the free Second Life browser now, create an avatar, and spend a few minutes learning the ropes in Second Life, then come hang with us tomorrow night and watch Altered under the virtual stars! See ya there.

Whoa, that’s weird, but cool, but weird. Releasing a real movie that no one has seen, to play in a virtual drive through theater, where virtual characters will watch it on screen with humans sited at computers watching it under the persona of their Second Life character.
