Prep for 366 Squadron RAF Mission 5

Second Life roleplaying is great fun and I love planning RP events. Part of that is a search for props... sometimes exploding props. While chatting, I told my good friend Buzzbox Munro about my roleplay plans. Buzz is a great guy and a wonderful creator of WW2 Era items in Second Life. 

I told him specifics about our next 366 Squadron RAF mission based in part on the Norwegian Heavy Water Sabotage by the Norwegian Resistance and the British SOE. He was kind enough to recreate VICE Target explode-able Heavy Water Processing Tanks. 

These tanks will "star" prominently in our next few missions, the beginning of a new story arc. 

The Man from U.N.C.L.E.

SL GROUP: The Men and Women from U.N.C.L.E.

A few years ago I created the group "The Men and Women from U.N.C.L.E."

It's been inactive, but I'm hoping it will get some visibility, new members, and renewed vigor from interest in the upcoming "Man from U.N.C.L.E." movie coming this summer.

If anyone is interested in building U.N.C.L.E. HQ and other props inworld for the Men and Women from U.N.C.L.E. group, please let me know. I'd LOVE LOVE LOVE to get it going by the time the movie is released.

TimeForce 10 - An Invitation for Roleplay

TimeForce 10 - "We're getting ready for Season 4"

This is a test video, rendered using Corel VideoStudio Pro X4 Ultimate.



I've previously used Windows Movie Maker and Sony Vegas. To use a Goldilocks Analogy, Windows Movie Maker was too simple (and crashed often). Sony Vegas was too complex. Corel's VideoStudio Pro seems to be just right!

So here's the plan! More adventures and more videos!

With the start of TF10 - Season 4, we're planning comics and also comic-style videos.

I'm in SecondLife to have fun, but I'm also a believer in the use of Second Life and Video to tell a story. In my case, my intention is to present our favorite genre elements from the 1960s and 70s into a serial style format, much like the serial films of the silent era through the 1950s.

Many thanks to my father, brother, and sisters who all shared  adventure stories and movies with me. And many thanks to my good friend in Second Life, Mr Cornelius Fanshaw who co-created TimeForce 10 and shares this little passion for spy-fi fun with me.

We would love to have you join us and add your own adventures to this little part of the SL roleplay universe.

TimeForce 10 - Season 3 "The President"

A machinima teaser for Season 3 of the Multi-Sim Spy-Fi role-play TimeForce 10.



On June 19, 2033, The President of the United States speaks to the nation, and the world, about the existence and mission of TimeForce 10.

TimeForce 10 - Season 2 "Audra Brash"

In the Third Teaser for the Second Season of TimeForce 10, we introduce Audra Brash. Attractive, Young, Energetic, and Brilliant... We see TimeForce 10 through Audra's eyes as a new "point of view" character.

Will she be able to handle the office politics between Zoe Connolly and Erika Drake?

And will she cope with the turf battles between the White House, The Department of Defense, and TimeForce 10.

TimeForce 10 - Season 2 "Erika Drake"

In the Second Teaser for the Second Season of TimeForce 10, we introduce Erika Drake. Ambitious, Attractive, Intelligent, and Blunt... Erika intends to carry out the President's Executive Order 17223. Will Erika find Dr. Dreamscape or will Dreamscape escape once again? And win or lose, will Erika's actions change TimeForce 10?

TimeForce 10 - Season 2 Teaser

With Dr. Dreamscape missing after what should have been a fall to certain death, the President signs Executive Order 17223 - ordering a select group of agents to seek and eliminate her, forever removing Dreamscape as a threat to the Timeline. Dreamscape's assassination warrant, signed in February 2031 is valid through all time periods.

In the weeks and months to come, TimeForce 10 faces a new enemy with an old agenda. But Doctor Elizabeth Lazarus seems all too familiar to the TF10 Team.

Could she be the missing Doctor Dreamscape?

(here is version 2 which corrects the previous aspect ratio problem)

TimeForce 10 "Inception" score test video

A test video using the music from the motion picture "Inception" by Hans Zimmer. This is a test for the next season of TimeForce 10 from Zoe Connolly. The images are random leftover TF10 video files.

TimeForce 10 - "The Demise of Doctor Dreamscape" from ZoeConnolly on Vimeo.

TimeForce 10 agent Samantha Calamity catches Doctor Zoetrope Dreamscape attempting to sabotage the TF10 Time Tunnel. Calamity chases her to the rooftop helicopter pads, and forces her to the edge where the Doctor hangs precariously.

Dreamscape tries to make a last minute deal to win Calamity to her side.

Is this really the end of Doctor Dreamscape?

Ava's ghost plans the capture and enslavement of the super-villainous sociopath Doctor Zoetrope Dreamscape.

Will Doctor Dreamscape escape Zoe Connolly and Samantha Calamity from TimeForce 10?

And if she does, will she face a far worse punishment from Ava's Ghost?

TimeForce 10 - "Die Glocke"

Following the recovery of the once missing Bell 2 from a remote Blake Sea Island, TimeRaiders Zabrina McMahon and Zoetrope Dreamscape put the finishing touches on the Bell 4.

The Bell 4 is to be the second of five working time machines to be delivered to a special team of 1944 German Scientists.

Once all five Nazi Time Machines are in place, the Germans - with the assistance of The TimeRaiders - will begin Operation TimePanzer: The Secret Plan to send a team of 1944 Germans to meet with Hitler in early 1941.

Will the plan work?

Or did Major Samantha Calamity of TimeForce 10 find the secret of the missing Bell Mark 2?

And will 19th Century Scientist Cinnamon Somerset escape from the TimeRaiders and find her missing husband?

TimeForce 10 - "The Test"

Zabrina McMahon goes inside a Nazi Time Machine to test all systems before a human chrononaut is chosen for testing.

Known to the Germans as "Die Glocke" the Bell Mark III will be the third Time Machine to be tested by Nazi Germany, but as Doctor Zoetrope Dreamscape reminds Zabrina McMahon, the missing Bell Mark II must be found and destroyed before Zoe Connolly and her TimeForce 10 agents can unlock its secrets.

The Bell's signature footprint holds clues that will lead TF10 to the exact place, date and time of the Nazi Time Machine Project in France 1944.

Will TimeForce 10 find Bell 2 before Zabrina? And what will happen to Zabrina if she fails her mission?
