Room with a view

For those of us who enjoy Second Life™ photography, the Backdrop City sim is a godsend. It does what it says on the tin: it’s a sim full of backdrops . From the main landing spot you can easily teleport to the themed platforms and find the backdrop that suits your needs at that point. From time to time I like to pick one of the bedroom scenes and zhuzh it up a little bit, adding some decorating fun to my photography experience.

For this particular SL photography exercise I was looking for a backdrop I could use to take the promo images for a new shape I have been working on (details coming soon in another blog post). I found the simple yet stylish Quiet Place backdrop by M E R C H. With it’s built-in bed and cupboards, it only needed living room furniture and a few bits and bobs to make it feel lived in. Don’t you just love it when things come together easily? There’s no need for every single project to be a challenge, right? Life if already more than challenging enough as it is. You can easily add a wall to close off the open side of this backdrop and use it as a little sky box.
