Swansong less then 10 hours for the Fashion Show. Last night, I had the pleasure of watching the rehersal show with a handful of friends and designers. It was only during the show that I have seen all of the designs and I must say they are all unique and nothing like you have seen before. As you know, we wanted to close the Black Swan sim with a last fashion event which all started with Fashion Inspired series. The last is called Swansong which brings together the Earth, Fire, Air and Water elements. The designers were asked to create around those four elements which are highly emphasized in the Black Swan sim itself.

From Japanese ancient drawings of Waves, to sculpted fires, mermaids, and earthly sexy gods and goddess form the gowns this time. This is only some of course and  all together we have 30 Designers who made gorgeous hair , gowns, jewellery and skin all around these 4 elements.

I was talking to Lokum the other day about training for models, and she suggested that we should host a training.  I was a bit sceptical at first as full training takes about 2-3 hours per person, and with a big group, people wouldn't get the focus they deserve.  So I thought, hmmm, I'll give doing a tutorial a try.  Well that has lead me down the road of frustration. 

I tried many, many different video capture programs (that are freeware), such as WeGame, and I found the best to be fraps.  The only drawback with fraps is that you are only allowed to capture 30 secs of video for free.  So back to the drawing board.  I finally decided upon CamStudio, which although the quality and voice syncing aren't perfect, they served the purpose well enough for this short tutorial.
