Abranimations®

Creating for virtual worlds since 2004

Abranimations® is our virtual-world brand. It's where Awesome Dog began: creating dances, toys, games, vehicles, gadgets and all sorts of other things for Second Life. Later we brought our dances to IMVU too.

In Second Life

Our Second Life store opened in 2004, making it one of the oldest stores still trading there. Alongside years of weird and wonderful creations, from toys and games to vehicles and gadgets, it holds one of Second Life's largest collections of motion capture dances, plus gestures and animation overriders.

The dances range from well-known favourites to themed sets made for choreography. Not everything is on the Marketplace, so visit the store in-world to see the full collection.

In IMVU

Many of our dance animations are available in IMVU too, all set to allow derived products, so creators can build them into their own items.

Same dancers, same studio

Love our dances in-world? Use them in your own projects.

Our Abranimations® dances are performed by professional dancers in our own motion capture studio. The same motion capture is available to game developers, animators and film makers as Awesome Dog Mocap, ready for Unreal Engine or any FBX pipeline.

Those packs are for your own games, films and animation. Their licence doesn't allow uploading them to Second Life, IMVU or similar virtual worlds, so for in-world dances, please use our Abranimations® stores. Why?
