Ramadan Kareem!
I am so excited to share with you my latest obsession:) My poem that I wrote on March 6, You Brought The Music ,in less than a month, has turned into a video!! Even I am amazed it came together so quickly..but I worked probably 6 to 10 hours a day on it… and now it’s done and I hope you will all take 5 minutes out of your lives:) Play it in Fullscreen and HD 1080 (wooots:) and enjoy it!
A special thank you to Sundaram Chauhan, who inspired me to turn my poem into this video I will share with you today..Likes and comments are very welcome on YouTube too..If you did enjoy it.
You will all be seeing me soon back on your blogs..I am with lots of free time again:)
Woot! All from a dream, that’s so cool. It really feels dreamlike with the colors and overlays. And in HD!:) Looks wonderful, and a great message. Pleased to have contributed a few scripts to move people around!

Absolutely stunning. I remember reading this poem, and it is amazing. The visual experience is mind blowing. The details you create, items on the street, text on the screen in the park, and the dancing, oh, the dancing, how lovely is the dancing. The colors are so vibrant they jump off the screen and right into our hearts, where this experience will live forevermore. Bravo, dear Karima. This is exquisite. 🙏🌿🌼❤️🍃🤗

Wow Jeff…thank you for this amazing comment! I love how you allowed yourself total immersion in my video. This what was I was hoping, that the viewer would slide into the dream state I tried to create from scratch:) Yes, you are right, there are a lot of details to make and leave ready , before one can film. We have some amazing dances now in Second Life…They are screen capture animations, like they use in video games, and they are a joy to do!! It is just starting with an idea, a poem, and then watching it slowly come into in the virtual..It is truly my greatest pleasure…We always say, little machinima makers, like myself, really create for just the love of creating, but if others love it too…well that is the frosting on the cake!! You have been so wonderfully supportive of my (and with Nat) videos…

Well what can you say, you brought the music and the magic started. I love the way you just floated up when you woke up, how wonderful that would be wouldn’t it, to float out of our beds in the morning. I loved the dancing and the colors changing everywhere. The trees were so fun to watch dancing, “Like they will likely be in heaven as we know they will be clapping,” and the unicorn in on all the fun. It was so lovely how the men were dancing and moving their arms and all the beautiful flowers and the tall greens with the lavish white stems. You were having so much fun dancing and moving freely. I love how you stood up to the Hindi men and told them what you were doing even though they questioned your behavior because you were a Muslim woman dancing in day light. Naveen made his debut, he has the greatest voice doesn’t he? I like the way people were praying, meditating and playing with the hula hoops. What a great idea that was. Soon everyone in the park was joining in and even the Hindi and Muslims were having fun together and giving thanks. What a beautiful video and everything was so beautiful, especially the colors always changing and the movement of the flags and trees made a little bit of wind. Just gorgeous Karima. Thank you for working so hard to make something so amazing come to life. By the way it was nice to see your beautiful face smiling. Sending my appreciation of your art and my love. A big thanks to everyone who participated and for Naveen sharing his lovely voice. What a very catchy tune you wrote and sang too Karima. You too have such a lovely voice. xoxoxoxoxo

WOW!! Joni.. I feel you were invisibly in my video./enjoying every minute..Such an amazing comment and description of what you saw..Yes in the end the Muslim and Hindi man put their differences aside and remembered their inner and more tolerant inner child. Thank you dearest for this lovely and generous commentary on my film..If only everyone was like you Joni..haha but that is too much to wish for..still you always leave me feeling..that all my time invested in a project….was more than worth it..HUGSS.. Just a note the men who came from prayers to talk to her..were Muslim..they were shaming her for dancing with 2 Hindi men..but it all was so innocent..instead of defending herself she agreed she was dancing with them..But… didn’t they look pretty all together.. none of the three had malice or bad intentions.. It was totally innocent and she answered as such:) I am so glad you enjoyed my music too❤️

You are so welcome Karima. I am always awestruck by your movies and your poetry. Your song that you made for the film and your voice and words were captivating. It is almost hard to believe that the men that came up were in fact Muslim men and that they were dancing or trying to shame the Hindi men. I thought that scene was particularly beautiful. Yes they did look very lovely, all together and I love the way you ended it is well. I also really enjoy Naveen and his poetry and was so glad he participated. Lots of blessings and much love to you my dear friend. ❤️🤗🦋🌹

My immersion in your productions always takes me a few views over days to fully capture the emotions your work invokes. Literally, this last viewing (my 6th or more, lol) is where I got caught up in the visuals behind the credits and saw how at the end, the Accuser was dancing with the Hindu man – talk about barriers broken! Having read the poem first, then seeing it, it felt as if I had seen it wondrously and perfectly materialize. Fantastic reveal of how your passion burns, fueling your creativity at breakneck speeds as if you can’t wait to ‘birth the baby’ (lol). I love how you instinctively capture ALL the most relevant focus points and weave the story so seamlessly, yet leave us – the viewers – with several perspectives to dwell on. Standing Ovation, my darling Sissy-Poo… you rocked this production in every nook and cranny, and are well into the coming of your own ((hugs)). I loved being part of it and to bear witness to your infinite creativity (as well as a certain individual’s ((ahem)) soon-to-be-legendary bun reveal ((howlsssssssss))

Aww thank you Sissy for finding your way to my video post!! but more importantly, thank you for always being there for me…ready to jump in my movie and this time..along with your son! I know its a lot of time to see yourself in a few sconds of film…but for me..those few seconds are critical and are what add flavor and warmth to the machinima. Yes I was super obsessed to finish this one..really I went full speed ahead..hehe but I will blame it on that whip-wielding muse of mine:):) Love you sissy..loved having with me again and you looked so darn cute too slidin and hula-ing hehe.. Thank you for being my Sissy Poo for sooo many years and even more adventures now we can add “The Menubar incident” to the list lol:):) ❤️🤗🙏
