SuperModel AO!


Oh Zhao 2 how I love thee!! Or should I say, Oh Zhao 2 how ALL MODELS should love thee! I created a SuperModel AO system for all the SL Fashion Models and Bloggers today. 10 stands, 2 sits. The best part about this AO, is that its not only full of great poses, at an even better price, but that if you are actually working as a model, you'll save yourself the trouble of typical AO styled photography problems such as: 1) Missing the pose you needed to capture and 2) Waiting for the AO to cycle thru the poses one at a time. In this AO system, you can go to the next pose with a click from the drop down menu, or simply freeze your pose in place so you/photographer doesn't have any waiting to do. Its easily the most simple way to strut your stuff on the SL catwalks, or just thru the virtual lands itself. Enjoy!

Also, on a side note. Since I had so many people sign up to my update group during my last release ONLY to get my chaise half off and then leave, I decided to give this AO out to EVERY remaining member in my group for free. I sent them out one by one to each member also, so no signing up to just grab the item from the group notice attachment and run off. Loyalty is a wonderful thing, or so my true update members have said :)

Color Changing Photographers Chaise


I have always wanted a beautiful old romantic style chaise for photography. Both in real world and in the virtual world, and finally .. FINALLY I have it! Well, in one world anyhow XD. I begged the hell out of two friends to help me accomplish this goal, Nectere Niven who is a great builder, and Lainy Voom who altho is still learning is sooo incredibly talented with lighting and textures. In the end we have created one incredibly gorgeous photographers chaise. Its menu driven, with 38 custom poses made especially for this chaise, adjustable avatar positioning, pose memorization, and 10 different colors to choose from. Its truely beautiful, not just functional.

And to my Update members, just 'cause I <3 you the most, Thursday ( Aug 23), I will be giving you a Sooper Sekkit landmark to an undisclosed location where you will be able to get this for half price for ONE DAY ONLY.

The ::Dance Inspired:: Collection

After I made my Music Box Dancer AO, I just couldn't stop creating those poses. Dancers have such beautiful and graceful movements its just mesmerizing. So, I created a 30 pose set of ballet and rhythmic gymnast styled poses for photography, art, and modeling purposes. Feel free to take a better look at each individual pose by clicking the "View All Images" tab. Enjoy!

Hello!

Typical first post introduction coming up! Hi, I'm Surrealia. In all of SL there is only 2 Surrealia's, and they are both me *waves* I don't have separate accounts for anonymous reasons, just typical ones like when I started up my business I had too much crazy inventory on my first account so I switched to the other to keep things clean. Go ahead and giggle cause you you know that's not working so great either lol.

Anywhooo, I'm an SL animator, machinimist for the Sims 2, digital photographer, artist, typical Sagittarius and mother. I'm friendly, honest, I hate drama but like many I'm just as guilty of getting trapped in its webs. My avatar is unique, because I refuse to stand in a line with 100 other female avatars and look like the rest of them.

My goals with ANA_Mations is very simple really. It started because I was sick and tired of every female av jutting their hips and boobs, yawning and stretching, and generally looking bimbo-ish and just plain dumb. Tramp AO.. thats what I call it. A huge achievement in SL's beginnings, but, time to give the ladies in SL more variety. Something that better reflects their true personalities. I also like playtime AO's .. we all like to dress up differently from time to time and just have fun. That was the reasoning behind my Broken Doll, and Music Box Dancer AO. They aren't to be worn 24/7 everyday of your life in SL, (altho you most certainly can, I wouldn't stop you), but as a fun time AO.

I also have another motive for my work in ANA_Mations. Film. Both cinematic and photographic. I love artistic photography, and I've seen many great photo pieces from others in SL, and I want to help keep that moving along with hundreds of beautiful poses to choose from. The sky is not even a limit in SL, so the more choices one has to choose from, the more freedom the creative mind has as well. Eventually, the poses I have, will become long strings of fluid animations. They will be specifically slower and smooth for machinima directors to bring to life in their movies.

'Nuff said.
