Thoughts/suggestions for Blue for his Superheroine Series
Posted: Sun Aug 18, 2013 6:43 pm
Blue,
I am new to the forum and your vids but have quickly become a big fan. Always been interested in the death fetish vids as a side thing (I write stories and fanfics with darker/death themes in them). DS vids are not my main interest but I enjoy them. Have bought some vids from other producers and for some reason never came across your stuff (but I also didn't go searching every nook and cranny of the internet either). Particularly, I really liked your Supernova and Wondra vids and they, in my opinion and no offense to any other producers, are a good bit above the level of anything else in this niche.
If I may be so bold, I'd like to give you my thoughts on some things I would to see more of in future vids. I am not expecting you to take these are gospel but just friendly suggestions to keep in mind when scripting and filming. I understand that there is a big difference between what someone imagines and getting it onto film and produced. But I would imagine if I had these ideas maybe others have as well. Perhaps it is too late for you to incorporate any of these ideas into your current upcoming crop of new releases (Supernova sidekick one, and the two Darkwing/Supernova cross over vids) but I wanted to send along just the same. Hope you find them helpful.
1) Nudity: Personally, I really need nudity to enjoy these vids. While I really liked the Supernova and the Wondra vids, I was quite disappointed that there was no nudity/topless shots. The first Wondra had this and that made the vid to me. Was this a conscious choice by you to not include any nudity? I think I saw you say something about the vids were supposed to be more mainstream. is this why you toned it down? Was this a request by the actresses/models (do they ask for more money to do topless)? My issue is, if you tone down the nudity and death scenes for a wider audience then you lose the core that makes it a death fetish vid. In any event, I think most of your loyal viewers would expect and like at least some nudity. Personally, the more the better. I would like for the top to come off during the fight and then she has to fight that way and ultimately die that way. Also, acknowledgment by the model that she is now naked (in character) is a nice touch too. Like her top comes off, and she tries to cover herself but this exposes her to a punch to the face. Or she tries to cover her breasts and her hands are pulled away to further humiliate her.
2) Dialogue: Your dialogue is good compared to other vids. I think it could go further. The Xander lines were well done but more back and forth would be nice. Your actresses tend to be fairly silent (at least in Wondra and Supernova). I would assume they would appreciate any additional 'acting' they get to do so I can't see the models being a problem. Also, lines of dialogue during the fights and death scenes where the heroine and villain trade barbs or threats could really add to it. Having the heroine speak during her death scene, acknowledging her impending death, begging for mercy, offering herself to let her live, or saying things like..."I can't die like this...I'm (insert heroine name here)!" or "I'm a goddess!", or even screaming "NO!" as she is dispatched adds a lot I think.
3) Deaths: Two things on this: A) Overall, the death scenes are good IMO. But could be better and what I am referring to is the actual moment of death. Supernova had a good strangling. Wondra's strangling was good too and her neck snap was obviously shorter as a death scene. But I think you could build it up more and shoot the deaths better. Supernova sort of dropped out of frame. A pulled back/wider shot showing her go limp and quivering and then her slumping over as he releases the cord would have added a lot. For Wondra's neck snap, again, more build up and dialogue would help a lot. Have Mace hold her head and tell her that she now is going to die. Have her beg for mercy or scream NO. Then the snap, and then a full body shot of her standing rigid followed by her body going limp and to the floor would have been great.
B) Variety: Personally, I would like to see some other types in the superheroine realm. The stranglings are good. And you have added some shootings (one of the more recent Wondra ones). But also neck snaps (as I mentioned) and stabbings could be good too.
4) Fights/beating: I really like your fights. I think they are well done. I like the brutality of them. The women really take a beating (and give some too which is fine.) But the punches and knees the heroines take show the power and their reactions (staggering, head snaps, etc.) are really good as well. My suggestion is to add more once the heroine is helpless. So, between the fight and before the death, I'd like to see an additional maybe 1-2 minutes of fight where the heroine doesn't or can't put up much defense. More of a ragdoll situation where she takes more punishment before being finished off. Other viewers might disagree on this one. Some viewers might not like this idea but I wanted to add it anyway.
Those are my thoughts. Hope you find them useful/helpful. Thanks. And keep up the great work.
