Audace Modeling School is a basic modeling program designed to teach beginning skills while it offers a fun filled atmosphere within the modeling industry. This concept of fun over profit makes Audace especially unique.
Audace, born in 2014 as a vision of the perfect modeling school, was founded by DebbieDoo Tigerfish. Debbie, a member of Second Life™ since April, 02, 2010, is an accountant in Real Life. When asked about the challenges of developing this agency, Debbie offered the following. “There are no challenges. To me it isn’t a business like you see in Real Life (RL). It has zero income and will always remain that way. It’s about making dreams come true.”
The women behind the Audace Modeling School have catapulted this agency up near the top of the Second Life™ modeling world. Audace models are bold and professional, and they learn to radiate confidence and assertiveness.
Another part of the unique aspects of Audace’s philosophy is that they pass their graduates, with pre-paid tuition, to other schools in order to further the students’ knowledge, experience, and professional standing.
When asked how she first got into modeling, Debbie, the financial guru and creative genius stated. “I couldn’t walk straight, and I thought modeling would help me do that. I kept bumping into walls and couldn’t walk upstairs…oddly enough nothing has changed!”
Her drive and energy are just one aspect of her forward thinking strategies. “I left CWS, and was bored. It’s a dream that for most models, is something they will never be able to do in RL. With mesh bodies improving and internet speeds getting better, it’s becoming much easier and more fun to get into.”
Her winning personality and sense of humor contributes to the success of this agency. As Huffington Post co-founder Arianna Huffington said in the March 22, 2017 article 12 rich, powerful people share their surprising definitions of success by Shana Lebowitz [http://www.businessinsider.com/how-successful-people-define-success-2017-3/#billionaire-richard-branson-believes-success-is-about-happiness-1] “money and power aren’t enough.”
Debbie insists that fun is the most important aspect of modeling and her work with her agency. “Have fun. Don’t do it if you think it’s a way to make money. If the fun stops then stop. Keep this in mind and you will never think about anything else.”
Another aspect that Debbie encourages is exploring the limits and pushing the boundaries of each individual. The supportive environment lead others to join in this endeavor.
Zexxxy Xaris, Sidney Abbot, and Liberty Lighthouse complete the core four of the Audace team. The Women of Audace are unique, and yet they complement each other. What makes each of them work so well together? Here’s what they have to say.
Zexxxy Xaris (known as Zee Zee) said, “Debbie has such an effervescent personality and it rubs off on us.
Sidney Abbot: “We have known each other for many years. We all met as models and developed a true friendship but the most important thing is that we respect each other and truly love one another.”
Liberty Lighthouse: “Honestly Debbie has a vision and I love her ideas.”
They each agree that the unique quality of Debbie’s open and generous nature leads the way and makes everything work well. “Well, that would be DebbieDoo Tigerfish,” said Sidney. “She was my mentor at CWS [University of Modeling & Fashion CWS] and when she opened Audace I knew I wanted to be a part of it. She is my friend, my sister and I love working with her at Audace. She is generous, loving and has a wicked sense of humor! She has always been there for me and my SL experience would never be the same without her.”
Emeric Biraud, of Model Management, a Real Life Modeling agency seems to agree with Debbie’s view in his article “More than 10 reasons why YOU should become a model” (http://www.modelmanagement.com/blog/more-than-10-reasons-why-you-should-become-a-model-on-modelmanagement-com/).
Biraud states, “People just follow the Modeling industry stereotypes, one should be a 90-60-90 model, tall, young …Wrong! The fashion world has been changing for the past years and ModelManagement.com has contributed tremendously on this! We give the chance to EVERYONE! Curvy, young, senior, short, tall… we think everyone deserves a chance, there are all kinds of modeling jobs out there waiting for you!”
There is no guarantee that success will decent upon your head, but DebbieDoo concurs. “Yes…no matter how important the famous models think they are, we are all avis living in a wonderful world. Enjoy this lovely dream, and at the same time remember this is a dream…and be kind to everyone you know.”
