    Amatuer Allure Quality?

    What types of camera does he use and why does his video quality seem to be almost higher than most sites in general?

    For web video, it simply has to be the highest quality video (chicks arent that bad either) I have ever seen on the net. Anyone have any ideas?

      I agree lighting is nearly everything but what is he using that mostly everyone isn't? Mad props to that dude. Probably my favorite site out of them all.

        i know exactly how he does it and did it better for Flashcash (and a whole slew of upcoming sites). Its not that complicated if you have any shooting experience.

        AA does it well though I'll give him that. He innovated for sure.

          He's using a ringlight which keeps his shadows to a minimum. It's a bit difficult to control the exposure as you see....a lot of blown out skin tones. It's a cool look though that you don't see often. Props to him for coming up with his own unique flavor!

                                From what i see lot's of brightlights, a rightlight and high shutter speed give him that crips picture quality.

                                            One doesn't need a ringflash to bring out the eyes...one just needs to learn proper lighting techniques

                                            I have 2 ringflash units but hardly ever use them. I use them more for special effects and not as a crutch. But I do see people using them on everything...which IMO kinda ruins the beauty of using it at all. Just my

                                            Not to mention....it takes a lot of practice to be able to use one properly and effectively.

                                            Good luck with your purchase and keep us posted on your adventures with it!

                                              he definitely has a look and feel to his shit of his own - very unique.

                                              i find the male talent creepy but the fresh talent finds and the unique look set AA apart from the thousand other POV 'amateur' sites.

                                              he's always shot in 16:9

                                                that's part of his shtick - there's a surreal artsy quality to his scenes - the music adds to it

                                                  If there are other video producers on here maybe we can share some info. If Thomas is on here, and in a giving mood, maybe he'd be willing to share.

                                                  I actually joined that site for the sole purpose of finding out how he shoots such high quality vids.

                                                  One thing I've noticed is his compression. The videos I produce are rendered at 1.5Mbps and generally give a video compressed at about 10MB per minute in wmv. AA's videos are rendered at almost 10Mbps yet they give a video that comes out to about 20MB per minute. There's someone else in this thread who told me this so I'm not taking credit for it but there's a compression SW called Squeeze that supposedly will allow you to render the video as AA does with very high quality but at a manageable file size.

                                                  His lighting is always perfect as well. The girls are always in perfect make-up and always have on classy outfits to start out with. Anyone else out there had girls show up in ratty-ass cut off jeans shorts and a t-shirt? :-) What a pain.

                                                  Props to AA. With all of the adult sites out there it's something when a thread like this pops up with people prasiing it.

                                                  If anyone has any specific insight that they feel would assist other videographers and myself, I ask that you please post it.

                                                  Thanks.

                                                      I have 2 ringflash units but hardly ever use them. I use them more for special effects and not as a crutch. But I do see people using them on everything...which IMO kinda ruins the beauty of using it at all. Just my

                                                      Not to mention....it takes a lot of practice to be able to use one properly and effectively.

                                                      Well, the two comments were sorta together, sorta separate.

                                                      I'm an aspiring photog. I dont want to use a ringflash specifically for eyes alone. Although on some close up shots like in amateur allure it would be nice.

                                                      The eyes comment was a general overall.. even in person i attract to eyes before most anything else, unless of course the girl has an exceptionally nice rack!

                                                      I want a little of everything to play around.

                                                      Lighting IS key!!! I'm learning. Investing in a nice set of lights right now. well, making the order tomorrow from BH.

                                                      I also want the ringflash for macro stuff ... n udies wont be my only focus. I plan on making a wedding portfolio and even scenic shit.

                                                      Don't get me wrong. I plan on shooting some nice college girls too

                                                                Dean, while I am an industry outsider, I am trying to understand in my research for my documentary, do you feel that it is more important to be unique and make less money or to copy a style that obviously is quality and makes money? While I agree that too many copycats dilutes the overall value of the given style if everyone is doing it but if one can do it and make money, why shouldn't they since it will be copied anyways? In times where sales could be considered a premium, it would make sense for those to attempt to emulate their success.

                                                                I would venture to guess that sites like Bang Boat emulated Bang Bus to some degree and probably made some good money off of it.

                                                                      Well,
                                                                      I had a friend send me this thread earlier today. I wanted to say thanks for all the kind words from most of you. I realize not everyone likes my style. I am cool with that.

                                                                      The one thing I am proud of is; I do have a style. Love it or hate it, you know when you see one of my images. I don't get on here much. I think this is my 4th post in as many years.

                                                                      I have no real secret to what I do. It's just a lot of work. I heard someone say once the difference between mediocre and great is an extra 15% in effort. So I just make an extra effort in the things I saw as most lacking in adult. 1. Good Lighting. 2. Make up 3. Wardrobe. Do these things and you will stand out.

                                                                      Whoever wants to e-mail me with a direct question, I would be happy to answer any lighting questions or other subject. My one secret if anything is... I started as a fashion photographer. Study basic posing, lighting and heaven forbid fashion.

                                                                      So now I create "fashion Porn" I hope this helps change my elusive persona on here and other boards just a little bit. Well while I am at it we here at Allurecash could always use a few more good affiliates. LOL
