I've uploaded a 20 second video of one of my Poser characters, Dolorous, the Poet-Whore of Tijuana. She's the star of Part 4 of my novel, Evidence of a Lost City. She lives in a Tijuana hotel called The Emerald Palace. She confronts John, my main character, in his room as he struggles to work on his novel. She says:

“What do you write about?”

He puts down his glasses and looks up.

“My life, I suppose.”

“Do you think anyone is going to care about your life?”

“I don’t know. Does anyone care about yours?”

“Of course not. But my life is my own creation. It belongs to me.”

“Perhaps I could write about you—“

“Do you write poetry?”

“Well, I have—“

“You will have to be poetic. I am a whore, but I am a poetic whore. Do you know what that means?”

“I’m not sure—“

“I provide a vision. I present a kind of mystery....” 

Art, she tells him, is best done in darkness. And then she leads him into the dark...dark corridors, dark rooms, a labyrinthine maze of an edifice filled with strange creatures. With the movie version, of course, being done in Poser. You can see Dolorous here:

Sorry...Had no idea THAT word would be considered offensive!

Neither would I Don, but y'know, there's always going to be someone somewhere who does.

Ironic, really, on a site I can't open at work because the home page is frequently covered with slutty models in skimpy undies or bondage gear. The hypocrisy is staggering, matched only by the site's contempt for its forum users.

It'd be funny if it wasn't such a joke.

Ah, yes, the world is quite amusing...except when it's not...

You must have posted that just after I rewatched the entire set!

Bit of a problem though, it's not working for me :-(
I can view the images but the video won't load.

Video on the internet is still a bit problematic. Ophelia is in MP4/H.264 format, using HTML5 coding, which up-to-date browsers should be able to parse. But there are so many browser/operating system configurations....

I usually upload my videos to YouTube, which encodes for virtually every eventuality, and then embed the url in my page. I plan on enlarging this Ophelia video, and once it is done that is what I'll do. Until then, I don't know, maybe try a different browser....

No worries Don, I'll wait for the YouTube version then.

Super-strange it won't play though, I have no problem playing HTML5 anywhere else, my browser and plugins are designed for it, and even when I use YouTube my browser completely rids the page of any trace of Flash and plays the videos in HTML5 anyway.

Weird.
