justsomedude101 Sounds like it was an on-set issue with the camera

Perhaps if the crews shot a short amount of test footage and then watched that back, this sort of thing could be avoided or minimised? Camera adjustment errors should show up on the raw footage, I appreciate it isn't processed and corrected but if it's an obvious focus issue, for example, it should show up?

Imagine spending all day shooting a scene to discover that your camera settings were broken somehow and the footage is terrible. It's a waste of everyone's time if that could be avoided somehow by more careful testing and setup.

      I absolutely adore this performer, and I'm very grateful that you guys are booking her, but I wish there was at least one scene with her where the dude wasn't the handsiest male on the planet. Hairy man arms constantly interrupting good shots is a real turn off for some people (myself included)

      justsomedude101 Yeah, and of course I appreciate you are the professionals here, but when I shoot video (not porn <g>) I always do that check first. I have caught myself with bad ISO settings etc like that before.

        I've been a Penny Barber fan for a very long time, it just doesn't feel right to see her without her iconic glasses...
