Dan do you think movies and still photographs are the same thing? Or that linking a study about still photos is somehow relevant to movies?

| Dan Senior Member 2056 Posts 6/07 |  Posted - Apr 18 2008 : 1:02AMI've just come accross a scientific study which found that men looking at porn pictures usually focus on the women's faces first and foremost. While women looking at porn pictures usually focus on the sexual acts the studs are performing. I think this study has some important implications for the way porn movies should be made. I know from my own experience of watching porn movies that I really do want to see the lady's face while she is having sex with a guy or two. And I do feel frustrated when the camera shows a lot of close-ups that focus on the sexual acts and not on the lady's face. Too many porn films neglect showing the lady's face during the sexual acts. And perhaps this is one of the reasons why they end up getting poor ratings from reviewers and poor sales among porn fans. Of course, I wouldn't want to watch a porn film that shows only the lady's face and leaves you wondering just what kind of sex is she having and who exactly is porking her? I want to see both, the sex act and the lady's face at the same time and preferably within the same shot. And the scientific study I've mentioned above says that this is not just my personal taste in porn, but this is what most men watching porn want to see. Edited by - Dan on Apr 18 2008 [Link] |

| Dan Senior Member 2056 Posts 6/07 | Posted - Apr 18 2008 : 1:17AM It's the content of the pictures and not whether they are moving or not that's important. [Link] |

| conquistador Deactivated User Hellhamster. 2947 Posts 10/03 | Posted - Apr 18 2008 : 3:27AM You don't understand how this science stuff works, eh? To say that the content of the pictures was the only important part and it wouldn't have mattered if the test subjects had been shown movies you would have to recreate the conditions of the study and instead of using stills use movies. It's pretty clear you have no clue what you are talking about. Leave the science to scientists please. Your assumptions do not constitute research. [Link] |

It depends on how many people are there, what positions they are in, and where they are doing it (ie. couch, bed, floor, standing). Personally, I prefer shots that kind of show both, and with an occasional close-up. [Link] |

| Dan Senior Member 2056 Posts 6/07 | Posted - Apr 18 2008 : 1:20PM All the girl needs to do is look behind her over her shoulder either at the camera, or at her ass-man, or in the direction of her gaping asshole. And of course the camera-man must back up a little to show both the lady's gaping asshole and the expressions on her face. It's the expressions on the lady's face which communicate how she feels about the sex she is having that make her face so interesting and desirable for men to watch. And that's why it's so important to show the lady's face during the heat of the sex action on her and not at some other time. Porn fans like me want to see how the lady feels when a guy is banging the crap out of her ass. And they want to see the strain and the effort on her face, when she tries to gape her asshole wide open in order to entice the big man's cock back inside her ass. And of course porn fans want to see the expression on this lady's face, when the guy plunges back inside in response to her open invitation. Now that I think of it. Facial expressions do show feelings and emotions a lot more and a lot better than groans, moans, yells, whoops, and hollers do. Although vocalizations can add to the heat too. Perhaps what needs to be done to express the lady's enthusiasm is to combine her vocalizations with her facial expression and show both. The moaning and hollering lady needs to make emotional faces at the camera in tune with her vocalizations. And the camera shot needs to show both, her distorted facial expressions and the reason why she is making those faces, which is the penetrative sex-action on her. It's no use to show the lady's face before her fuck or after, which is what many porn films show. It's during her fuck that men want to see the lady make faces at the camera and show how she feels about it. Edited by - Dan on 4/18/2008 1:22:10 PM [Link] |
| Dan Senior Member 2056 Posts 6/07 | Posted - Apr 18 2008 : 1:32PM I'm sure female vocalizations also play a role in arousing men who look at porn. But the vocalization factor should be the subject of another scientific study. And it doesn't belong in the study I've mentioned. When you try to study simultaneously two factors that interact with each other. Then you end up with a confusing mess that doesn't tell you much about which factor is important and in what way.

| Dan Senior Member 2056 Posts 6/07 | Posted - Apr 18 2008 : 2:04PM But negative emotions or a mixture of both positive and negative emotions are very interesting to watch too. That's why mainstream action films with all the verbal and physical violence and gore are so popular among fans. Many porn fans want to see big studs take the sexy lady to her sexual limits. That's why there is so much emphasis on bigger than average cocks, huge dildoes, anal gang-bangs, DAP's, DP's, a2m's, and DPP's. And if taking the lady to her limits is the name of the sexual game. Then it makes no sense to hide the lady's reactions and not show the faces she makes during her fuck. Porn fans who want to see the sexy lady get the maximum fuck will be most pleased to watch this lady's facial expressions that show how she reaches her sexual limits. That's exactly what they want to see. And showing the distorted faces the lady makes together with her maximum fuck is the best way to show how the studs take this lady to her sexual limits.

| Dan Senior Member 2056 Posts 6/07 | Posted - Apr 18 2008 : 2:29PM You need to show both equally and simultaneously, the fuck and the lady's facial and vocal reactions to it in order to have a good porn film. Edited by - Dan on 4/18/2008 2:46:22 PM [Link] |

| Dan Senior Member 2056 Posts 6/07 | Posted - Apr 19 2008 : 3:59PM It's a hit and miss kind of situation. There is no easy way to look for and choose films that show both, the sex and the lady's facial reactions to it. The cover doesn't give you any information about it. And film reviewers seldom mention this kind of thing too. [Link] |

| GentleAman Member 19 Posts 12/05 | Posted - Apr 19 2008 : 5:45PM I would like to see more of close up of pussy w/o dick. any recommendation? good solo or lesbian? My taste seems to change toward the beautiful face and body and good look at her private parts after years of watching porn. [Link] |

| tom_servo Member I'm huge! 128 Posts 3/08 | Posted - Apr 19 2008 : 8:10PM And I want to see the girl's expressions during the sex (hopefully enjoying it but to be honest anything real instead of seeming faked gets me off). The voice is key too. Echoing what Loraine says just check out Beautifulagony.com. It's porn without being pornographic, but very compelling from a porn point of view, some stroker material there. But I want to see some of the girl's goodies too, the action involved, hear what the girl is saying/moaning - not just see the face - if I am going to whack off to it. As far as closeups go although I like seeing her pussy closeup I don't need it there hogging screen time for the majority of the time, or see so much of the action shown from gynecological closeup angles, I would rather see more of her whole body during sex with many closeups of her face sprinkled in showing her reaction to the action. Everybody has their own thing though. [Link] |
