Edits are used to remove out-takes, time shift, remove usable but not desired content, and when there's a break in the action for whatever reason. A scene may get edited several times for different outputs/markets. The DVD cut may be shorter than a web-cut. One isn't better than the other, just different.
I believe in "better". I find that most porn editors systematically cut the stuff I would like to see, thereby making the scene worse. Maybe they all attended the same editing school or online class or something.
Anal leaks edited out and baby wipes requested lol,i seen one scene involving Whitney Stevens i think it was and as she is getting pounded some leaks are visible the next shot went to a facial close up of her then "by magic" when the action returned to anal pounding the leaks were all gone and she had been cleaned up.
It's just semantics, but as Rod mentioned an "edit" is something done with the shot footage in the editing room. You seem to be asking what happens between takes - when the camera isn't rolling. Yes. The performers "recharge" between scenes. They often hop in the shower, drink some water, have some food, make phone calls, Tweet their status. It's rare (though not unheard of) for the male performers to do more than two scenes in a day. Many can only do one. The women can do several - it's not unheard of for a woman to do three to five in a day.
^ true but I don't think they shoot more than one scene simultaneously the questions seem to me what happens in between a "stop" and an "action" in the middle of a scene ,such when a performer can't get a wood hard enough or when can't cum for too much time or when the girl can't receive an anal In Antonio Adamo Rome II for Daring there's a behind the scene during a stop it's interesting you can see a female performer drinking maintaining her position on the bed , the male performer fully erect in front of a girl for make up or a girl asking for instruction being impaled on a performer it was interesting
I've occasionally had female performers ask for a break, but more typically it's the guy because of wood problems. I've had females start their period in the middle of a scene and we had to stop to deal with that, and sometimes one or the other will get tired and ask for a break, or someone asks to go pee, but more often than not, the girl is waiting for the guy to get it up. If it stays up all the time, the scene is over fairly quickly and their isn't much between cut and action to be missed.
I guess I didn't understand his question. Didn't realize he was asking about male performers not getting it up or female performers not being able to do anal causing the production to pause or take a break. I kinda thought he was asking about performers recharging between scenes. But I can see I misread it. I've never been on a set where any performer is shooting more than one scene simultaneously so I think you're right. But I have worked with male performers who can do two scenes in a day. And female performers often do two (or even three) in a day.
Mine were examples of some reasons that might interrupt a filming , something happening during the cut and yes many other things , can't put a full list because I'm lazy
I saw a clip on the bonus features of a dvd where they showed when a girl asked them to stop. It was during a gagging scene. She was on her back with her head hanging over the side of a couch getting her throat pounded. And the spit was going into her nose, so she couldn't breath. They stopped so she could sit up and wipe some of the slobber away, then it was back to business. Might have been Jersey Jaxin (sp?) in one of the Throat Gaggers movies.
I'm not that into it either. I bought the dvd because I was in a small porn shop and it was one of the few they had that (judging by the box) had alot of facials and swallowing, which IS what I'm into. Kind of off topic here though...
