Can I take screenshots?

For our model’s privacy, no images or videos from the site can leave the site without the model’s strict consent.

Always read the session details to find out the expectations from that session. Absolutely no imagery from the video library or any virtual drawing session can be shown off-site. Only the work you create can be shared from your time with Silhouette & Shadow! Failure to comply with these expectations will result in removal from the community.

Who moderates the session?

The models are in charge of their sessions. They Dj, moderate, time poses, move cameras and chat with members. It’s a lot of stuff to do, so please listen to updates and follow directions while you are in session. Writing suggestions in the Zoom chat feature is a great way to communicate with the model about any updates.

We’re all here to make some art, so here are some codes of conduct to help it run smoothly.

1. Keep your camera on during breaks and while the model is talking.
