April Update!

Oh wow, I have been so busy IRL that I haven't had time to update here, so....

What's happened since my last posting?

Lots actually.

As promised Terri let out her inner barbarian and appeared in the March issue of Busted as the film character Red Sonja. It was a lot of fun and I thank Bee for doing such a wonder shoot.

I also got a chance to appear on a movie poster for Chanel's the adult theater in Whoreville, thanks to Erin for this shoot.

We are well in to the Second Edition Porn*Stars Deck, which you can find here. If you haven't seen the 1st Edition Deck, then it can be found Here.

The other major news is that over the last month I have been working hard with Racheal Rexen to write, and star in what will be her fourth film.We just finished filming yesterday and she already has it up. so here it is.....





Finally, if that wasn't enough, here to keep you going are a few of my shots that didn't make it as the final shot. Enjoy.

The Road Not Taken

There are often times that I take pictures at a location to see how they come out, or take multiple shots at a location, and most of them just never make the final cut. Here are a number of my until now unpublished shots that didn't make it into my Flickr albums for various reasons. Some of them I do really like, but they just didn't quite have the special something I wanted, or they are good enough shots but not as good as the image that was my final choice to post.

Enjoy.

Dancing up a storm at the Forced Fuck Porn Studio in Raindown

Angel Wings Swing. I loved this idea, but I could never get the hands,
the wings and the monk ghosts all perfect in the single shot.
Shot at The KingDoom of Darkness

Another KingDoom of Darkness shot. I am going to have to save up for an animation
modifier because while I loved this shot, with the leg in the swing, it was ruined.

One of my shots for Back to the Future Day. I decided that it didn't
have the right angle on the car for the final shot.

Although most people wouldn't even notice it, in this shot Terri's head is a little
too far forward, so it was rejected for the final shot.

This shot from The Sirens Gulf just didn't have the right angles for me, even though
the clown's position could be considered scarier then the final shot.

I was playing around with some of the filters in Firestorm for this shoot at Whispering Winds.
I didn't quite like the enhancement on this shot, though ironically, the final shot has
 Terri's eyes closed....Oops.

I loved this archway on Skye Falls so much I took a number of different poses in front of it, but then had to choose which of them to use. As much as I loved this pose, it didn't make it.

Also taken at Skye Falls, this was a test shot for timing and position.It clearly
shows everything the tree's shadow tends to darken in the final shot.
I really wanted to do something really out of the box for me and naughty.
I think with these shots I succeeded.

Saying goodbye to Doki was really hard. Those we only meet the once for a shoot, I had chatted with her over IMs a bit and gotten to know her a little. I wish it could have been more. This shot from Porn*Stars Beach was discarded in favour of far better and soul rendering final shot.

I created my own pose for this shoot and wanted to try and show off a little bit. I did like this side shoot that was taken on the Pleasure station 69 / U.F.O Abduction the SexXxperience Sim, but in the end when for the more direct head on shot.

Playing with Shadows and light. I wasn't quite happy with this one compared to the final shot, but it did have it's own loveliness, so I wanted to post it for you to enjoy,

Doing Duos

I have been trying to get a few more Duo pictures done recently. So far there have been the Music Box with Adele, Volleyball with Partee, Back to the Future with Racheal, and Last Shoot with Dokie. I am trying to get a few more sorted out and well hopefully post when I do. :)

I thought I'd write a little more about doing these because, other than the Music Box, each shoot had it difficulties.

Music Box

I love working with Adele, she is such a sweetheart. This shoot when with few hitches. We did it at the great Image Essentials Photo Studio. Adele came over, we did the poses, took to the shots and it was done. I think I could have done them better knowing more as I do now, but I still like these. They needed a touch of work post shot, but not much.

Volleyball

I had this one well and truly in my head before starting it, and having found the two perfect poses and the perfect setting, I was ready. Only trouble, the location, Strofades, was no scrip and no rez, and the afraid pose that Partee had was only usable as an no modify pose ball. Argggh. In the end we shot the picture on a different sim, TT - Sports, and used a screen behind us so I could shoot the original sim's background, which was then edited in behind us making it appear that we were on the original court. :)

Back to The Future

This was almost a spur of the moment shoot idea created by finding a cheap time machine DeLorean DMC-12 on the marketplace as Racheal Rexen and I chatted about what to shoot. Coupled with a poster from Back to the Future II, we had a shot. The Poses were created ourselves, Racheal using the Animare Pose & Animation System and me using the QAvimator program. Once we had the poses sorted we had to get the set up right, and I needed to add my pose to a pose ball, resulting in the weirdest reaction I have ever seen in SL, my whole upper body rotating about my torso where the ball was located. Finally changing scripts I was able to get a better and more stable ball, and we did the shoot at Mew's Place, Woohoo.

Last Shoot

I was greatly privileged to be the last person that Doki Doobie did a shoot for and with. Almost my twin in the industry, I was captivated by this woman from the first time I saw her work, and wanted to pose with her for a long time. That we managed it in her last hour in Second Life was a thrill and I loved working with her. She'll be greatly missed. Sharp eyed people might have noticed that these images weren't the first I had with Doki, when I snuck one of my favourites of her into another image recently. We started the shoot at Skye Falls, which is an absolutely stunning beach island, but after a crash, we had to finish up back at Porn*Stars Plaza Beach. After I has taken the great shot of us holding hands against the sunset I snapped a few more at different angles just to see how they went. It was looking through them afterwards that I realised that one of the more casual shots was the one I was going to use, it just had so much emotion in it, Terri reaching out to Doki in a vain attempt to get her to remain as Doki looks back at the viewer her eyes and face telling the story of her leaving .It was a great pleasure to work with her, a d she'll be sadly missed by us all.
