| ninja1 Senior Member 2939 Posts 1/08 | Check out these YouTube vids. No need to watch the full duration, only enough to notice the camera position/angle. In the "Mina" video, skip forward to beyond the 1:00 mark. In the "Anna" video, the 1:25 - 1:35 segment is of special interest regarding how much closer she gets (compared to the "Mina" vid) to the camera without cutting off the bottom of the subject. Can someone tell me how these videos are made? I'm guessing the camera is really low, almost on the floor. But is that the only "trick"? Is there some special lens being used? Is it aimed at an upward angle or is it level? Thanks for the help! [Link] |

Both the lens and the display/viewfinder need to be facing the same direction if they're going to be able to keep themselves in the field of view. Most compact video camcorders have screens that swivel so you can orient it so the girls can see themselves. You can try having them look in a mirror to view the viewfinder, but it's very difficult. A more complicated way is connect the camcorder to a second monitor like a TV or computer that can be watched while the camera films the scene. Some POV producer/performers use this method. I suggest borrowing a video camera from a friend and experiment. However, there are good reasons why production companies have directors and camera operators......good luck. |
| ninja1 Senior Member 2939 Posts 1/08 | I'm only dealing with girls who already have some pre-made videos for sale, so, with luck, that should weed out the totally unequipped/incompetent ones.Right, but the shame of it is the production companies and their cookie-cutter factory porn procedures lack imagination and generally can't get it right (in my opinion). So the next thing to try is custom and niche productions; maybe I'll have better luck with them. |
