| fatalbert Member Diagonally parked in a parallel universe 576 Posts 5/03 | Posted - Oct 3 2009 : 12:56PM Many on these boards post that they just love partial-body closeups, BJs filmed from two inches (so you can see maybe her upper lip and one nostril), and the like -- and God knows it must be pretty universal since porn from Day One has featured this prominently. Well, lovers of the closeup are free to have that choice, but after you've seen one, you've seen them all IMO. I can't for the life of me understand how partial-body shots can compare to allowing us to see her pretty face too as the action proceeds. I swear, at least 95% of camera shots in porn have me climbing the wall in frustration at the sheer insanity of it. Okay, another bout of Pissing into the Wind over with. It sure ain't gonna change anything. But it does give OPs the chance to say "Hey, I love closeups!" [xx)] [Link] |

Give me a close-up of the initial penetration, then pull-back and show me the girl's entire body while they fuck. Close-up of some hot facial reactions -- and I don't mean the guy's  -- then back to the girl's whole body (dare I wish for a second angle).If you're a quality studio (one that own's more than one camera), you could also capture the girl's face during the initial penetration, and edit it together with the close-up of the actual penetration. Michael Ninn would know how to do this :) In a BJ scene, mix-up some shots of the girl's body, as well as face-on-cock shots. On a facial cumshot, show me the girl's entire face for crying-out-loud! And, the stud's entire cock (I'm not gay, but...). I hate -- hate -- seeing the tip of the stud's cock cumming on a part of the girl's face. And, "Editing 101"... Please stop crossfading into the cumshot already in progress, and out of the cumshot before the stud's finished ejaculating. I never want to see the shot from behind the stud's balls looking up into the BJ ever again. You've been warned  [Link] |

| fatalbert Member Diagonally parked in a parallel universe 576 Posts 5/03 | Posted - Oct 4 2009 : 1:08PM Again, not picking on you two, but most reviews go on paragraph after paragraph describing every position and sex act, but if closeups are ever even mentioned, it's usually as a positive, such as "... great closeups of insertion," etc. So, I'm not flaming any individual, but it seems that a disaffection for closeups puts me (us) in a tiny minority. They're too universal, from the Classic era forward. [Link] |

| RandomPrecision Senior Member Enjoy! 8175 Posts 3/06 | Posted - Oct 8 2009 : 11:15PM I actually do like close-ups that are interesting (provided they're broken by medium and wide shots). Like having the camera slowly move over a woman's body at a close distance. That can be really nice. But they usually just move in close, point the camera at one thing and stay there forever.

| fatalbert Member Diagonally parked in a parallel universe 576 Posts 5/03 | Posted - Oct 10 2009 : 11:49AM I am not saying that those who like closeups and pans are clueless assholes. I'm saying that, as a practical matter, there is no choice available for porn which doesn't prominently feature closeups (either the steady type you decry or alternating between genital shots and his or her face). And when they do deign to give us full-body shots, the angles are so extreme (floor shots with the camera rotated 45° out of level, e.g.) that I can't make visual sense out of it, but that's a rant for another day. I am reduced to choosing among POV BJ flicks, because they're the only genre on which I can rely to see her face and the action in the same shot most of the time. Not much choice, really. [Link] |
