Update: that's cliffnotes https://forum.sexlikereal.com/d/3575-tomorrow-there-is-a-landmark-originals-production-call/18

What's the most important things would you bring there?

We are looking to have 5 US production teams shooting around 4-5 videos starting from March.

All I tell producers - do you best to come up with new cool stuff. You can count on us in everything tech, post production and feedback, the rest is up for you.

We are always happy to explore new ideas and concepts 🔥

Quick overview:

  • one team will be mostly shooting passthroughs. These will be greatly improved with March update completely removing green background and artifacts. Making it like a regular black box scene. Totally next gen passthorough like Quest 2 v Quest Pro.
  • @Mutiny will be looking into production
  • figuring out new logic for castings.

    Three words is what I would bring and that is variety, variety and variety!

    More variety of storylines.

    More variety of female performers (not all slender teen looking models, not all lesser known newbies, let’s have some more established stars too).

    More varied levels of hardcore scenes (some vanilla and intimate. some rougher, some anal etc.)

    More variety of male performers (John Strong, for example, seems to be in a lot of scenes unless I am mistaken and, based on what I’ve seen of him, he appears to be very short which doesn’t work great for some positions, especially with taller girls).

    Focus on the art of making the scenes look great, getting girls into great positions, good lighting and clear views of penetration instead of efficiency (i.e. let’s see how many positions we can tick off without moving the camera around).

    Just a few thoughts.

      petermc Totally agreed on that.

      That's why we get into separate team each with unique styles, locations and access to talent pools.

      We are going to stop using the same locations all over again.

        Don't use a warehouse.

        Get beautiful houses, places, make it look like a real place.

        Most important to me is make a story that is a scenario that I could happen to find myself in. I don't have a stepmom or stepdaughter but you can make it believable that it could happen to someone somewhere (since everybody seems to want to bang their step family for some reason). You wouldn't end up banging your stepdaughter because she doesn't want you to tell her mom something.

          rerun119 that's what I would do if i would be a director 👍
          No idea why it's so hard to get it right. Trying to get things going with multiple teams

          Variety, variety, variety. If you've got 5 teams producing videos full time that's a ton of great content. Have one of them focus on the niche genres that don't get many high quality releases but people are always asking for. Transgirls, Mature, BBW, etc.

          Stories and characters, please. Solicit ideas/scripts from users if you don't have any ideas. I have a ton and I'm sure plenty of others here do as well.

          I can see any number of body parts go into any orifice for free with one Google search. I get my money's worth with context, immersion, etc. Wankz used to be the kings of stuff like this but they've gotten a lot more generic in recent times. Look back at their Zombie Slayers series, or the multi-part saga with Casey Calvert. They did two Elena Koshka scenes that were vastly different but scratched that same itch, one where you are on a blind date and another where she's your girlfriend. The former actually had you sit through a full 20 minutes or so of the date before any of the action and the latter was one of the only GFE scenes where I felt like there was an actual relationship.

          Build some tension. Make the viewer wait for it a little. Stuff like this is why cosplay scenes are so attractive. We have the familiarity with the characters built into our heads that are supposed to enhance the scene. I don't need an hour long epic but having a hot chick just walk up to me and hop on my dick is boring. I can also get that anywhere.

          Agree, I just brought up the same scene 5 minutes ago on another thread about the blind date. That scene was amazing because of the story that build up.
          I also like multi scene story lines. That way you really get immersion with the story. Again SLR did it once then never again. Those 3 videos all are super high up on the all time list for the whole SLR site. Why don't they do it again cause they always talk about the numbers around here.

          There's been sporadic calls for more close up shooting. An extreme closeup series would be welcome as a popular niche by many. I mean, put our faces right in the action.

            so much this. im so tired of the tatted up silicone breast clones that seem to have taken over most videos..where are the natural looking girl next door teens?

            This is just not true, SLROriginals, sort by "new", there are 32 videos on the first page, more than 25 are naturals, most are teens.

            I would say opposite is true, there is lack of women older than 35, even older than 30 is rare.

            I do wish that "mature" didn't automatically mean giant fake tits and botox every time. I'd love to see some older women but it seems like there's an industry mandate that once you hit 35 it's time to start looking like a balloon animal. None of the older women I've ever fantasized about in real life have ever looked like that. The industry needs more India Summers.

              The immediate outcome of the call - it's much better to make one great video taking all the Oscars and millions, than 10 videos no one would care about.

              On top of that:

              • Shooting BGGA by default. A is for Anal. Where possible
              • we want to come up with trending now scenes and performers metric within actual time. It's like over the past week or something.
              • scene's heatmap histogram shown in the app and on the web.
              • no same location within 1 month, including decorated warehouses
              • new casting director starting tomorrow. Hopefully @justsomedude101 will join the effort
              • Cool VFX like DickRunner scenes
              • improved binaurals sound
              • 10K rig is coming in April
              • moving passthrough, EU scenes and others into separate channels.
