Thank you. Being old doesn't mean you forget everything you learnt over the years.

I looked at the camera work and i defiantly with out a doubt know who shot that scene. The moves way give it away. This director does not edit and will not listen to anybody about anything when it comes to making technical changes that will up his content quality. This particular shooter is a technical retard and will not listen to anybody, because he already knows it all. Im guessing he fears loosing his job when his technical short comings come to light.
|
Then Manwin are at fault using him. He's below par.

The stills are shot by somebody else entirely and are seriously rushed because the director is yelling at everyone to hurry up,because he wants to get out of there before 4pm. That is way evident by the inconsistency of the stills. The strobes are not recharged when the photog fires the next shot. That i know is a fact.
|
Then shows that below par people are shooting porn for Manwin.
The shooter should shoot the stills and video. This way builds up a relationship between the model and shooter on the stills set. There should be no distractions for them both to work. Don't they use a power pack on the strobes?
As for getting out by 4pm. Why? Once you start squeezing shoots into a time frame you lose quality. someone said it can be done in half a day. Yes it can be done like this in half a day. Done well takes longer.

I know the Photographer personally, but i do know the director. I know if the photographer had more time on the stills, the stills would be way, way better. 2k stills and get them done in 20 min. is not fair to the photographer and to the company paying for the scene.
|
He could still put in more poses and not make mistakes like hiding the girl doing a "pink". But without blaming them I blame Manwin for using this content. My site proves without a shadow of doubt I can out shoot both of these guys.

You were right about him using the onboard mic. He wont use a boom because he is way far from technical as they get and he will claim it will restrict his quick movement and scene flow.

Furthermore this particular director has a serious reputation for yelling at talent and stressing everyone out on set when he is in a bad mood. That seems to be everyday from what I hear. Thats what is with the uncomfortable look on the girls face. Im not going to name him, but his initials are TT. (I bet i get a scathing call later in the week because of my honesty)
|
Not the TT? Shit that guy should know far better. Ultimately Manwin are to blame for using him.

From what I understand MOFOS is more of an amateur site. Shot with little lighting(on purpose) and has more of a raw feel to it.
|
That's no whenre near Amatuer niche. Miles away.

Paul, I think that you happened to pic the worst scene shot by, IMHO, the least skilled shooter. To Brazzers defense, i think that is the look that MOFOS wants for that network. A Pro Am look and feel is the look that MOFOS is looking for.
|
I saw worse on Brazzers. Pro Am always meant, to me, pro shooter amateur model. This is pro model amateur shooter. Not great. What do members think of it?

You need to see some of the stuff that Bret Brando shoots. That is the stuff that is on the Brazzers flagship site. The sound is good, the lighting is on point, the stories are entertaining and i know that Brando is always on point.
|
Is his content flagged with his name?
Quote:
|
The shooters that care and that are on point when they shoot will have an external mic on the camera with a shock mount going into channel one and a boom arm mic that is positioned 3 feet over the set, cabled in to channel two. Why??? Shooters that are editors and editors know why.
|
Yes had this when I was shooting amateur for Astral Blue.

"Over all," i still think that Brazzers "as a whole" has the best content quality on the net. With RK at close 2nd in content quality. RK's edge is the new unseen girl factor.
|
Then that reflects badly for the rest of the industry. I have seen inside a lot of site and yes, Brazzers is in front of many online only sites. Which says something bad about the rest.

I do edit my own scenes, I see my past mistakes and i have learned from them. After reading your review and seeing that your eye is on technical point and knowing that you do understand what is expected from you, I truly feel that you will knock this scene out of the park. Shit, you might end up being the next Brazzers contract guy.
|
Editing your own work is essential to learn from mistakes. We all make them, seeing what is dumped in the editors lap teaches a person to not do it again. Goes for video and stills. The editing of this scene was sloppy at best. Is the editor a bad guy as well?
I would never of lasted producing content like this and with respect to the shooter and editor they wouldn't of lasted either. It's only online that they do. Is the customer so forgiving when he spent his money?
I doubt it.

Paul; you and I may disagree on things from time to time, but i do respect you and all of your accomplishments in adult. I will be cheering for you on this next shoot,
Good luck

Thanks, will wait for the new contract.
