I’m not talking about straight porn, but erotic movie parts, like basic instinct: in the unrated cut we actually get to see Michael Douglas’ penis as he ‘penetrates’ Jeanne Tripplehorn.
The whole scene seems very realistic, including the kissing and the domination.
How can you control yourselves?
More passion !
Lightning’s crap, we’re redoing it for the 8th time
Oh wait guys stop, mic’s unplugged
Easy answer next time you are intimate with your partner choreograph the whole session and have your boss watch and see if you get aroused.
Just make sure a HR rep is there too
Let her bring some lube, you never know 🫣
kinky
Okay you just described my last dungeon event.
Giggity.
You KNOW I will!
What looks realistic on screen is carefully pieced together from countless shots. An erotic moment feels much less hot if it’s the 29th time you’ve performed the exact same moment, and there’s a dozen guys standing around holding microphone booms and complaining about the lighting not being right, and some dude keeps sending for more fake sweat to reapply to your forehead.
Now I’m just imagining Stanley Kubrick getting his start in porn.
“Cut!!! The lighting is wrong. Who is handling the lighting??? It’s all wrong! It doesn’t invite me into the scene! Look at this lighting! Would YOU become entranced into a sexual encounter??? We’re making art here people! We’re making cinema! We’re making magic! Remember, Anal Sluts 9 will be the pornographic masterpiece that will be heralded among future generations! That’s what’s at stake here. That’s why we’ve all gathered here today. So if I say the lighting is off, then I EXPECT SOMEONE TO FIX THE GOD DAMN LIGHTING!!! LETS GET IT RIGHT PEOPLE!!! Aaaaand go again. Take 537…ACTION!”
- who says they don’t?
- its probably not quite as erotic when there is an entire crew pointing lights, cameras and microphones at you, and a director giving you instructions
While you’re wearing essentially a balloon or a strip of carpet and nothing else
being on a set is one of the least erotic situation to be in. it is work. in contrary, i’d ask how in the world people can perform in pr0n.
Viagra probably. For men at least. For women it’s probably more about ignoring the presence of the camera.
Could be a few things:
- one is clever cuts. Film one scene and film a scene at a different time. The time you see the actor looking at something erotic, you position the camera on them but they are looking at something that is not erotic so they don’t get aroused. But you give the illusion that the character is looking at it to the audience.
- masturbation. If you masturbate before the scene, then you are less likely to get visibly aroused.
- get an actor who isn’t aroused by that. If filming a scene with a man trying to seduce another man and he fails, then get a straight guy who won’t be aroused by the gay seduction.
- too many times filming. Many scenes you see on TV and movies have been filmed multiple times. Rare is it for them to do one cut and be done, even if it was perfect and got everything the director was hoping to see. After doing that scene a few times, the natural feelings get lost on you. It’s why a lot of funny scenes that make the audience burst out laughing uncontrollably can be filmed without the cast and crew doing that to ruin the scene. You’ve done it so much that you are now so tired and bothered, you don’t feel the natural urge to laugh or be aroused. Some directors will use this to their advantage in, what some may consider to be unethical, to agitate their actors into feeling emotions for a scene or so they don’t feel emotions for a scene.
- some actors just have the natural ability to hold back some natural emotions. It’s what makes them so good at their job.
Most people have basic impulse control. Your last question makes me slightly concerned that maybe you don’t.
I’m smelling a conservative, religious upbringing here 😂
Sir, this is a no stupid questions. People of all ages can ask here.
They probably haven’t had sex yet
