Review : Starmovie

Today, as some of you may already know, a new feature became available to Stardoll Royalty members known as "Starmovie". Basically, Starmovie is yet another useless addition to Stardoll.com where you can use props, sets, and friends and celebrities to put together a "movie" , in which you can then watch back and even publish (at a price of course, this is Stardoll after all). Here are my personal opinions about the Starmovie function...

Let's begin shall we? My objective is to make a movie where Justin Bieber and I experience an earthquake and then descend vertically. Firstly I need a set...

For a set, you can choose from any one of your interiors you have purchased. Not bad, I suppose. But I would prefer to have a choice like you do when making a Scenery.


Next, I'm going to dress Justin and I, so we look appropriate for the role.

You can only select clothes you own and that are out in your Suite to where. So if something is in your Storage, it will not appear. Again, I wish we could have an option like we do with Sceneries, where there are clothes fitted to a certain theme. Not to mention that for some reason, Stardoll removes all make up and accessories from my face (?)


Finally, I want to add a prop

Just like sets and clothes, you only have a selection from things you own

I chose a vase of flowers, because let's face it, Justin is a romantic little child. (Try and ignore the fact that he looks like a pimp, by the way)


Now let's get going. LIGHTS, CAMERA, AC- oh wait, what do I even do? Putting together the movie is (remotely) quite easy, but when it gets to actually filming it, it's kind of a blur. Not much of the tools make sense, so it's practically just guess work...

See that "Help" button? Upon clicking, this is what you see...

Well I am sorry, but I need help NOW! I don't get why they released it without a full help page, in fact, screw a help page, I need a manual for this over complicated, unnecessary crap.


CONCLUSION: Starmovie is a waste of time and effort. I would recommend you try it out, but only so you can see for yourself how complicated and difficult it is. I would probably not use this again, nor would I pay a single Stardollar to publish a movie I have made.



Have you tried Starmovie? What do you think?
If not, try it out and leave us your thoughts.

P.S: I understand there is no gossip out there, and this post isn't anything gossip-y, but I just thought I would share my thoughts on the new feature and give you all something to read.
