Back in the 60's I got involved with a really good camera jockey that did porn on the side. (Oh, Yes I do know I titled the thread "Pron") My job was the audio and lighting. He used two cameras back then, 16mm (color), with sound. Unlike today with digital cameras using film was expensive. No room for retake after retake. 'J' was demanding and did several 'run throughs of a scene before he committed to film. (Let me add here that 'J' did a lot of film work for commercials, many of which you may have seen.)

It was a slice of life and here's what I learned;

Getting women to 'act' in those films was amazingly easy. Male 'actors' were at a premium. Why that is is still a mystery to me to this day. (Or maybe not.)

Sex is not a spectator sport. There's only so many ways you can insert Tab A in Slot B. Even gay porn is stuck with those limitations.

Porn, like all else, tries to out do what came before. It hit its nadir, or sewer as it were, in the 80's with the 'snuff' films.

A fellow member and I were speaking of the up coming eclipse. We agreed, "You've seen one, you've seen them all."
