I really can't make him out. He's all over the place.

http://www.cinemaerotique.com/mov_happycouple.html moves from one thing to another in a trailer leaving the viewer wondering what he's trying to do, amateur to erotic, to amateur. If one clip is fantasy then tie it together.

http://www.cinemaerotique.com/long_goodbye.html then this which makes total sense. He lets a hand get out of shot because of his positioning, but I can forgive him for that. He should stand at an angle to the couple. Also straight cuts, dissolve so the viewer knows it's memories.

Great idea, but shot amateurishly. Why does it stop suddenly?

IMO Cherry is an amateur who has good ideas but not the budget, training or experience to carry them off. Often his trailers are confusing without getting the message he wants to convey over to the viewer. He doesn't have the experience that a professional would have to have to sell his work. This last one shows he is learning.

I never ever attempted to move into this market. I knew where the money was for me and learned the hard way over the years how to get a good performance out of a girl. For the work I was doing. I did progress from a very basic level to a pretty successful magazine shooter and the Astral Blue videos sold well.

Just never had any illusions I could produce what Max does now.

And for Cherry to do what he wants to, this is the level he needs to be at. As there are already others at that level. Max isn't alone.
