List your sims here if you allow people to film Machinima on your sim.
Order A-Z by region name when adding new sims.
Note that this does not include permission to build there or to alter lighting. Just filming. This list is partly out of concern for intellectual property rights and partly about giving credit where it is due.
Any land owned by Governor Linden can be used for filming.
You can put your SL avatar name or your real name (or both or whatever) as the owner/grantor as you would like it to appear in film credits.

| + No Salvation + Dark Gothic Cathedral + Dragon Rose Isle | Seska Akami | †No Salvation† is a unique and timeless, Gothic themed, cruciform or "cross-shaped" Cathedral. The Cathedral rests high atop rocky cliffs overlooking an ancient Cemetery and ruins nestled in the midst of the "Dead Swamp" on Dragon Rose Isle.
The Cathedral is home to †No Salvation†, an enigmatic Gothic Nightclub, which has been chosen as Elysium by the Sovereign Queen of the Dragon Rose Domain. As you wander the unhallowed halls, the atmosphere is very dark yet hauntingly familiar and inviting. Soft blue rays emanate from the etched stained glass of the Cathedral windows, flames from the myriad of altar candles dance wildly across dimly lit enclaves and secret passages abound, mysteriously hidden within the deepest and darkest of shadows, to create the intimate ambiance your forsaken soul has been yearning for. Descend in to the vast abyss of deviant pleasures and satiate your most depraved appetites. Be forewarned, those who enter these sacrosanct walls will not be saved. The Cathedral, Nightclub and surrounding Estates (continuing into the Dragon Rose Bay sim) are OPEN 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Photographers and Machinimatographers are always welcome. There are many scenic overlooks, observatories and towers for a panoramic view of the Estates. Locations include Cathedral, ancient cemetery, catacombs, dark forrest, ancient ruins, fort-style combat arena with sub-dungeon and torture chambers hidden underground, underwater cave, Elven glade, Drow cave, Heaven with a model of the Ark of the Covenant, Hell. The Cathedral's in-house music stream, †No Salvation Radio†, echoes the sounds of Rock, Metal, Gothic, Industrial, EBM and Darkwave genres to all who enter. The ancient Cemetery's music stream, †No Salvation Cemetery Radio†, consumes the surrounding landscape enveloping you in a dark and enchanting symphony of Gothic melodies. There is only one †No Salvation† Established in October of 2008. Accept NO imitations! |
