| For Every Victim - Blessed3126
One of my older films, created when I was just starting to get the hang of machinima. I felt really inspired to create this video, and it was something that I simply could not shake. This video is dedicated to anyone who has ever known of someone or has ever been verbally, emotionally, or physically abused.

| Kissing - The Edison Company
Public kissing was greatly frowned upon during the uptight Victorian era, when this scene was produced in Thomas Edison's new glass-topped studio in New York City. As a result, the movie was banned in most areas (which of course, only made it more popular). Sadly, the two lovers have come down through history as unknowns, but their behavior is most familiar. In their day, this popular sport was called "sparkin'" if it took place inside (usually in the parlor), or "spoonin'" if committed outdoors...
