Due to our script of our group project, this week G2 has moved on to our shooting work! Before the shooting, we sent about a questionnaire to all of our classmates. There were about 20 questions, made up by 5 themes: basic questions, frequency, motivations, improvements and promotion. Each theme was described by about 4 questions for recipients to give answers. After collecting all of their questionnaires, G2 has started to categorize them into two kinds of users. One is “FREQUENT USER” (at least 8 hours a week); and the other kind is “SELDOM USER.” (under 8 hours a week) By categorizing into 2 groups, we planed that during the interview, we assign them questions to answer in front of the camera.
Questions for “FREQUENT USER”:
1. What motivates you to frequently stay in SL?
2. Show us one place that impressed you the most? Maybe the most fun and special place.
(p.s. We assign that each interviewee should keep their answers brief, 20~30 seconds would be the best.)
Questions for “SELDOM USER”:
1. Tell us the reason why you seldom stay in SL.
2. Give us your suggestion to improve SL.
Besides the regular questions above, G2 requested every interviewee to shoot the same cut. We need a slogan to promote SL in the very front of out film.
And the slogan will be: “我是xxx(real name), 我也是xxx(avatar’s name). 我們都在Second Life, Welcome to join us!”
By far, we have interviewed half of the classmates, and there were still about 6 people remained. We anticipate to complete all the interview by 17th June (Wed).

"Pet Me" If You Wish-As an Animal Lover on SL!



In real life, we adore and care about animals; in Second Life, there is a wonderland perfectly made for animal lovers!
Do you love animals, especially dogs and bears, just as Catecha Inaka? Now, Catecha will show you a different place for animal lovers to go.
Being fond of bears, Catecha Inaka teleports herself to "Bear Museum" on Second Life, hoping for sharing the same taste with bear lovers. In Bear Museum, views are different from other places. Various bears are displayed in the hall; some are motionless, and some would stare at you when they notice that you keep looking at them!
On the top of the hall, a bear is acting like a “security guard” to protect the museum. Moreover, a bigger bear just sits on the right side of the hall, which will definitely catch all visitors’ eyes.

Meanwhile, being fond of dogs, Catecha met Lola & Butcher on the road. She found it amazing that dogs are walking freely and willing to be petted by dog lovers! Just right-click the mouse, which shows “Pet me” on, everyone can pet the dogs immediately. What's more, Lola will whisper that “Care Butcher, he will bark at you!”

New BERLINer, New Experiece(revision)
Out of curiosity, I searched "German" and teleported myself to "newBERLIN" to have some fun. Since I have learned German (a.k.a Deutsch) for one year, I anticipate to know if I could communicate with German in German fluently.Thus, I came to NewBerlin, anxious to know what is going to happen.
However, things are always unpredictable. As I step in newBERLIN, I got a name tag "newBERLINer" on my head. Even if I have no idea what those Germans were chatting about, I still join them without fear.
...
Eager to meet some German freinds, however, an American from Maine showed up, I still fail to practice my German. He is my first friend on SL, also, we have made appointment with each other later at night. He will show me some great place to kill time. Through the experience, I hope I could make more friends from abroad.
