Production & Post-production Feedback

mirdumar Both this scenes was shoot by me. From October 2021 Alex got new Director of Photography., because I moved out from production. Post-production is the same for both scenes. I don't really like updated CC on Giana's scene but in original version it's looks good for me.

bacula8630 maybe it's because mastering was done by different people. Most likely I did it for Sexual Alchemy. Spanish Lullaby and The Angel Trials was done by our guru who did stiching for most of the scenes. My preset was a bit different from scale part, so maybe here is a reason why it's getting distorted a bit.

Thanks for the info Evan.

It’s interesting that different editors used different presets. I would have thought once you guys found settings that worked the best. You would share that preset across the editing team. So you would get the most consistent product scene to scene. Regardless of who worked on it.

As far as the barrel distortion goes, it seems only crazy people like myself think it’s an issue. I get a little OCD sometimes. So forgive me harping on about it.

You guys do good work. And the scenes are excellent.

Hunky-Dory Sorry, i probably didn't say it very clearly, but 220 FOV in Pigasus is just a personal setting for me that i use for SLR Fisheye / MX200 scenes as it seems to suit my brain and eyes and is very much a 'Personal preference' and probably not for everyone and advise for users to try different settings to suit them as 200 FOV also looks good.

Thanks for the clarification. I tried the Pigasus app last night as well. Looks about the same as DeoVR in terms of distortion.

It seems that most people don’t really notice or care about the distortion. So I’m just gonna let it go.

Appreciate the help though.

bacula8630 you aint crazy.. its bugging me too

bacula8630

Lol Unfortunately, we seem to be in the minority.

It’s by no means a deal breaker though. Just thought the staff should know.

Will65 No, definitely not. It's damn good.

Evan_Redstar There is no time codes. It's the whole scene. And it's not just this scene. It's most of the new ones.
If I move my head around from left to right. The images in the left and right lens seem to be a little off. You can see the image roll like it's warped. I don't know how to describe it. The old 6k videos from 2 years ago were perfect. If you moved your head around the image was clear and looked static. It looked like a solid picture like it should look. Now the image looks like it is aways correcting itself. It like the edges are warped but the middle is not, so when you move your head you can see the image going from warped to not warped. I hope this all makes since.
I know nothing about editing but IMO you should use the presets from 2 years ago

vrpicasso Great post! If directors consistently featured all three of the "good" positions on your screenshots, there'd be something for everyone. Intimate shots with a good view of the face, a fuller body view that lets us simultaneously see the face, the body and penetration and finally, a position that emphasised the legs for those who appreciate legs.

Will65 lean-back cowgirl gives us the best view without moving the headset, so I'm a fan, although I do like a mixture of CG positions so long as they're all shot well.

Will65

vrpicasso I can appreciate that some people may like the view, but it is an immersion breaker to lean back and get penetrated like some weird exorcist crab creature. Every time I post against that position in comments it is the most liked comment in the thread. I wouldn't mind a bit of it, but when it is the only cowgirl (e.g. LethalHardcoreVR), it sucks. And it's unnatural. No normal people ever fuck that way. Like ever. I'm sure someone will post that they've banged 2374624976 girls that way in real life just to be contrary, but they're lying.

Mutiny

Will65 It definitely happens IRL, but it's a lot rarer than porn would have you believe.

Will65

Mutiny Even so, it is itimacy breaking. I want you to lean towards me, not contort yourself backwards farther away. Lean back "for the better view" is more suited to 3D porn than to VR porn, imho. Again, I'm sure that one of the folks who stalks my comments like buzzards will insist I am wrong, but there is a big difference between garden variety porn shot in 3D and Virtual Reality porn. I am of the strong opinion that some angles, situations, and techniques are not consistent with VR porn, and lean-back cowgirl (especially when overused) is one of them.

rerun119

Will65 Totally agree.

There seem to be to schools of thought for vr porn. One is the people who want to be able to see all the penetration. The second group of people want it to look as real as possible, meaning not the weird legs open as wide as possible like 2d porn so you can see on the action.

I'm in the second camp. I want it to seem as real as possible. Meaning lean in when riding like a normal girl does holding on to your shoulders.

Something like this?

This rarely happens and if it does it last seconds.

Let a model get into that position when she cumming, she could be doing cg with sum sitting up straight hip grinding, she starts saying I'm about cum, I'm cumming and leans in like that and just keeps cumming while she grinding hips, her face close to dudes neck sucking on him. The visual you'll see is her ass cheeks grinding and twerking.

Would work 👍

The audio is out of sync in the latest SLR JAV Original starring Melody Marks.

Not sure when the problem begins, but towards the end of the scene the audio is pretty out of sync.

vrpicasso GOOD - We have good visibility of face, tits and penetration, and ample light everywhere. Pelvis back, pussy forward

Jillian did an awesome seated cg in
Your Adorable Neighbor

Vrsumo2017

I like the kisses and up close nipple sucking to be pointed into the cam not below the cam where mouth would be 👍

I checked out the latest Riley Starr scene last night. It’s great to see a new Riley scene!

Unfortunately, image quality wasn’t the best. Not sure who edited the scene, but the image quality is a little over done IMO.

Color is a little over saturated. A little too much contrast. Looks like sharpening was applied in post. Skin textures look waxy and unnatural.

I don’t know if these characteristics were baked in during capture, or a product of an overly enthusiastic color grade. But the resulting image doesn’t look very natural.

If I had to take a guess, this editor might be the same person that edited Nash Magazine: Blake Angel. As they share many of the same characteristics. That’s just a guess though.

As far as the scene itself. Riley is great! Bring her back early and often!

Watching with Quest Pro

Thank you for reading

bacula8630 In the Riley Star video, my impression was that the image got quite blurry already at a distance that is usually not a problem. If you look at the T-Shirt of the male performer in laying position, the texture of the fabric looks only detailed in the area between neck and chest and thus farther away skin texture will look blurry/waxy.

And I thought it was even worse in the Breaking the 4th wall video in which there was no realistic skin texture at all at any distance, not even in the highest quality version of the video.

At around the same time, I happened to watch two videos from the VRHush/FuckpassVR/VRAllure group and was just blown away by the clarity of the skin texture at close range in both of them. Almost better than reality! I don't think they manage to reach this level of quality all the time, but these two were absolutely amazing.

So my conclusion would be that SLR should definitely look into the image quality issues of some recent videos, I think this is rather a step back and there is definitely a lot of room for improvement.
