I shot this in vertical format to see what I might be able to make out of it. This is just embarrassing.
Update: This is an example of the rule that, just because you recorded something, doesn’t mean you need to publish it.

The messy adventures of John Marsh |
Hello Doug…
The visuals are scrumptious! Very erotic watching you sinking slowly in the black, bulging brief. The soundtrack, however, leaves a bit to be desired. I’ve most defintely added to my Mudlover folder. Many thanks for the viewing pleasures.
Ha!! Well, I wasn’t really interested in spending any more time on it. 🙂
If I were to do it, again, I’d change the speed to 200% so it lasts only 35 seconds. I also think I screwed up a bit on the luminance adjustments on parts of it. It’s lacking in contrast in a couple places. The challenge was to get some shadow detail, and I went too far. The action cam is easy, but doesn’t give me any control over the exposure.
However, the real problem with making a good, vertical frame video is that I have precious little material to work with. I have to standardize on a format if I’m going to be able to pick the best bits and edit them together. I had to make the “tiktoc” video as a separate piece, because I couldn’t use that shot with the rest of it.
Using the best framing for the subject has obvious advantages, but this was just a failed experiment.
Thanks for the comment. I hope you didn’t miss my earlier post.
