<TA>Photography Background Booster Stage
Look at the pictures to see what this can do for you SL photography!
Did you see that? Yeah, that just happened! This system/tool/thing creates an easy way to vastly improve the illusion that the model is INSIDE the background!
How it works:
Models stand on it. But!!! It is invisible, making them seem to be back "behind" the bottom edge of the background image. If you want to include models feet (shoes) in an image, this!!!!
THIS IS WAY, WAY EASIER THAN DOING SOME SORT OF "GREEN-SCREEN" PROCESS! Having "done it" both ways, we believe this is far, far, more efficient.
----------------------------
Backstory:
Two of our models were doing some pics and couldn't get happy with how their feet were on hardwood and their bodies were "on the beach." One of them came up with this. Then, it was scripted and coded to cover a wide range of in-world photography applications!
----------------------------
The script is Copy / No Mod / No Trans
However, the stage is Copy / Mod / No trans
This means you could put your own textures on the stage floor and using the show/hide options elect to show them or not. Just an option… You can also change size using the "Edit" options of any prim. The script will reset it to the default size.
Full Disclosure—No joking, someone at TA should have thought of this ages ago! The hours wasted trying to tweak a camera angle and the many, many compromises made (well, we just can't use that background if we want to show the feet/shoes) over the years is staggering! For TA Enterprises, this is a game-changer!
AND IT WILL BE FOR YOU, TOO!
