I'm talking about the typical hardcore stuff you see in "mainstream" newsstand porno magazines,the pics looked very posed and staged,it makes me wonder if they just have the guy insert his dick,take pics,then move on to the next postion,take more pics,etc.or do they just put 2 people together,and they actually do fuck for awhile.
I've seen some BTS footage of a porn movie where the couple "posed" for fucking pics after they had already done the feature for the film. In that part, the guy was constantly jacking off so he could stay hard for a variety of poses of him inserting his cock in her ass/mouth/pussy.
Just one example, but given that high-resolution photography requires great lighting, non-moving subjects, etc....I'm willing to bet most of the fuck-pics in hardcore mags are just poses. Maybe they fuck before/later for another video shoot?
I also had a porn photgrapher once tell me that male semen photographs very poorly....the real stuff is often a bit off-color as well. So they routinely used a pina-colada mixture for still photos.
In the Casting X serie you can actually see how Pierre Woodman shoots hardcore stuff for the Private magazines. Very interesting to see the behind the scenes stuff.
I always wondered about the purely "posing" photoshoots-the guy's got a raging hard on,if the chick isn't willing to satisfy him on or off camera,he might have to beat off in a corner or something,lol.
In the flick, "The Private Life of Michelle Wild", they show them filming a photoshoot, and it was pretty interesting, and hot. Michelle, and the two guys are dressed as cowboys/girls, and for the most part their just "posing". Michelle does help the guys stay hard by blowing them, and jerking them off, and later does some serious humping between shots, just for fun! It was a great photoshoot, and I wish they had put that scene into a movie!
I have a couple of videos where they combined both. They strike a pose and kinda languidly go at it, and you see the pops of the flash going off as they take photos while the cameras roll. Then stop, change position, and start up again. The stills probably ended up on a website or a magazine somewhere.
Nothing says First Class Production like watching flash pops during a scene...
I remember seeing a vid of Gauge's first scene (with Mojo, natch) in some really cheap hotel room (with the tv blaring in the background). As the vid was being shot, you could see the flash and hear the film-auto-advance go off constantly. Seems some of Ed Powers stuff was the same.
