The same stories repeat themselves, especially when it comes to the dreamers and desperate. I’ll give you an example and then tell you the target of my disdain.
A woman came up to the virtuoso pianist and wit Leonard Bernstein and said, “I would give my life to be able to play like you and move people to such emotion.” And without missing a beat and in front of all the patrons, he damned her with, ‘That’s the difference between you and me – I DID.”
Porn is art. Perhaps one of the purest arts, because its sole purpose is to force the viewer to feel something that moves him or her – in Porn’s case to pleasure and orgasm. You can look at a painting and say, “I think it effects me,” but with Porn you know it. It either has the story with or without dialog, sexy types of look that hit your erotic buttons, and level of cinematic artistry that gets you off or it doesn’t. When one ingredient is missing, usually the viewer isn’t effected enough, especially when he or she is evolved to the level that knows good from bad.
When every single element above is lacking, it isn’t Porn, it’s Crap. A waste of time. A reverse orgasm. A turn off. A trip to negative feelings about sex, yourself, and most of all the person who created the Crap. There is a director out there creating such with non-porn on Naughty Machinima making fun of other peoples work.
Now if I point a damning finger it is not just to put someone down there in the Hell they deserve, it is to maybe get it through the thick headed creators just how much their failure to deliver top quality Porn infects and sickens the world of sex, and especially the world of SL sex.
Porn is voyeuristic playing upon imagination … SL is to the extreme to the infinite degree. Therefore it requires a tight level of skill, an awareness that it has to be done right or not attempted at all.
In the 50’s men would get so hot watching blurred 8mm film of unattractive women they could toss loads in seconds and re-live their pleasurable sins for years. Wake up. It’s 2010. Images are supposed to be sharp. Story lines need to make sense and be creative. Women and men sexy as hell. Fetishes specific and intense. This is the meat of great Porn. To some out there? They find it feasible to put up what may be seen as humorous to some, Attacking those porn stars and directors who make the effort to present good work. Being featured on naughty machinima doesn't put you ahead of your game in the "Porn Industry on SL". While you attack and critique others and start drama you're going to start Lacking the elements that give a good Porn scene its merits. The attempt will be futile as No one will care about your work. The best movie being created is the drama you're creating at the hand of being discovered.
If I were fresh on SL and saw behavior,and then looked at the porn this person presents, I would still be yawning. The fact that I have worked months to fine tune the camera work, equipment, my stories, stars, and genres puts me on top, in a position to pass judgment on what truly sucks and damages the chances of truly satisfying an impressive Porn.
You can keep turning out junk and have a place on SL with the gutter snipes of sexual voyeurism and vicarious experiences. Word will spread more (as it already has) on what you deliver. But don’t make the mistake of claiming a throne or that you rank among those who developed the skills needed to impress the hell out of viewers to the point they become part of our Porn family, world, and achievement. This is SL! Not an old Hitari sex game played out with thumb controls. Get your talent, act, and profession together. Make the sacrifices and do the work that will ensure you a place among the best. Because right now your claims are being mocked by many in the porn industry and won’t easily be shed.
Do yourself a favor, and us a favor. Grow into greatness, rather than assume you get it with just a few lame attempts to seduce and get off.
