More than an Expo-Why?

Samara Pennell, from Proposers says:

“Proposers are a group for photography, pose and animation lovers.  We wanted to open the New Year with a different event rather than our famous Hunt. Sitting on the couch and watching the snow falling, and the Holidays fast approaching, I thought it was the right time to have fun again and HELP for a GOOD CAUSE. I have had the great honor and opportunity to get in touch with the ASA (Autism Society of America). Autism is a great deal nowadays, that appears in early childhood, usually before age 3. All autism disorders affect a child’s ability to communicate and interact with others. December 2009, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued their ADDM autism prevalence report. The report concluded that the prevalence of autism had risen to 1 in every 110 births in the United States and almost 1 in 70 boys.”

Our Mission

We came out with the idea to have an EXPO where part of the sales will be donated directly to the ASA.

Donation Kiosks will be placed on the sim too. Documents and/or proof of RL Donation will be shared with the Proposers Group after the end of the event.

*REQUIRED DONATION

Finding Macbeth

I’ve been to the Macbeth sim/installation a few times and always meant to do some photos there.  The other day, I finally did.  I had been trying on clothes while sorting my inventory (never-ending) and this dress from Kastle Rock Couture (yes, still unpacking.  Don’t judge me) that I got in the Twisted Hunt was stunning and I wanted to do photos in it, but where?  I remembered the Macbeth sim and tp’d over to check it out.  I ended up taking over 70 shots (about 40 useable ones) there at different angles and poses because that place is just so cool.

The words in the photos are not a backdrop or Photoshopped, they are from certain sections of the sim.  There’s some kind of cool particle emitter that spews out words from the play.  I kept playing with the camera to as different words appeared on my screen and some went quite well with the poses.

All the poses I used were from Del May.  They seemed to fit the insane feel (remember, Macbeth is about a real nutjob) of the place.  It seemed my avatar was being driven mad, even her eyes went wacky in some of the shots and I left them because they fit the crazy look I wanted. The windlight setting I used was Abracadabra.
