I am a totally independent video producer, currently only producing
erotics. Yes it's a tough job but someone has to do it. For what I do, low
budget solutions like those Panasonic and Sony camcorders I wrote about,
are perfect. I don't deal with clients telling me how they want things.
For what I do, using real chemical film will always be too expensive and
too complicated. I think the only erotic video producer who can afford
chemical film is Andrew Blake (www.andrewblake.com) .
I never actually saw the Chemical effect of that Panasonic cam so I can't
say if it's good for my biz or not. I'll try to get a demonstration when I
have the money available to buy one. 24fps is not important for me either,
all my customers watch my products on TV or computer screen, not in any
cinemas. So 25fps PAL is good enough for me. I just like the progressive
scan, regardless of frame rate.
----If you're doing adult, you definitely want to stay away from in-camera
effects like "film-look" altogether, because it can blow an entire scene if
you put it up in post and it doesnt look right, and I know how hard it can
be to get the same talent to do the same thing twice!
Your effects that you want are most definitely in post all the way.
The progressive look will help your quality regardless of frame rate and if
youre shooting PAL you're already close enough anyway.
You wont ever hear me knock erotics....they make more money than most of the
other video businesses put together. Contrary to most people's impressions,
the adult biz is difficult work, a job like any other, and it's not as easy
or glamorous as it might look.
