The Signal by Guy de Maupassant

This weekend we will be filming a short film based on the short story “The Signal” by Guy de Maupassant. Maupassant the master of the short story also has a lot of erotic themes of sex and love in his stories.

What is exciting about this is that we hope to make a film that will be original and unique. Not porn but well beyond what conventional film makers make.

Well thats the plan. I won’t trouble you with the difficulties here !

Interview

I was interviewed today for Village Voice…..

Often “porn for women” is thought of as being classy porn, while porn for men is thought of as being more base and more sleazy. Do you think there’s something in particular that women want in their porn that is different than what men want?

I don’t think that it is just woman that want different forms of erotic material, I think taste divides up on Class and Geographical lines too. I also have a personal point of view too, that is that I don’t find “porn” exciting or erotic. A large factor in porn and its audience is its history as illegal and forbidden, the forbidden fruit tasting sweeter. I think that porn is the product of religion and sexual repressions.
Now we are in an age where more and more people see sex as normal and healthy and do not get the excitement from viewing “dirty forbidden material”. So the erotic will need to change meet that new market. I find the tremble of the lip more exciting than the non stop pumping…sex for all of us is in the head and that is where we are aroused. So we need ways of creating the sexual fantasy in peoples heads, men and woman. The differences in our fantasies are reflections of the sexual and class divides of our society, as well as the different positions held by men and women. The history of woman their subordinate position, their exploitation the sexual roles played by man and women mean that woman’s fantasies are different.

The argument over whether or not porn should have a plot will continue until the end of time. Why did you decide to create story-based porn instead of filming wall-to-wall sex?

We came at erotic film making from the main stream film industry. We saw that for the first time we could script, shoot, edit and distribute films all ourselves free from producers, the TV executives, the censors. To make more porn would be harder for us as we had no experience and everybody can and is doing it. So we though that we must try and do what we know about and that is using the film language. Also it is a lot of fun to think of the most un porn film to make. The film that will get people to say “what the fuck was that? ” Like the striptease in the park with squirrels and birds flying around…
We are now planning a film based on a Guy De Maupassant short story. We hope it will have no home, it won’t be porn and it won’t be conventional cinema.

The porn you’re making for your website Cinema Erotique is very much a boutique kind of porn – stylish, carefully made. Beyond the standards for technical quality, what are your standards for the action in your content? Are there sex acts you aren’t interested in filming? If yes, which ones and why? If no, please explain what you choose to put in the films.

That’s very kind of you to say, I hope we are getting there. It has being a rough job trying to learn the new skills needed to make erotic films, they are quite different from normal film making in the way it exists on the fringe of society. The standard for action is imagination, to think of ways of creating an exciting image or moment that will arouse the viewer. I have no objection to any act but I don’t think that is what is the key, the key is the performance, A girl sucking another girls finger could be hotter than anal sex. I feel where I am failing all the time is in obtaining that or being able to create the conditions for that to happen. What actually happens in a film depends on many factors, one what the performers do, what level they work to and what makes sense in a story.

A lot of sex acts are built around the degradation of woman, double penetration gang bang etc…In themselves as a fantasy I don’t have a problem, if it was just a small fantasy for man and woman in a sea of other fantasies…

I know an actress that wanted to do a 2 men gang bang thing, I we have a story where she exhausts them, secretly locks the door, traps them, and fucks them to death…
A long days shoot.

We would have no problem in filming that. But there are problems in filming degrading scenes of woman when there is so much violence against woman. That said Hollywood has a lot more to answer for in its promotion of violence death and torture.

Directorial vision is porn is nothing if you don’t have a cast that understands what you’re trying to do. How do you cast your performers? What are some of the challenges you’ve faced in doing casting?

Directorial vision sound so grand, the reality is more like fire fighting, one model doesn’t turn up, the other will do anal but doesn’t kiss…It is very much cinema of the possible! For one shoot I had only one person turn up out of the 4 original artists. I cast the performers that I find attractive and them talk through what they are comfortable doing, what they enjoy doing (much better). The main challenges are one practical…the people turn up …and then to get them to work in a new way for us. To see their whole personalities and bodies as sexual and not just their breasts and bums. And this is what I must learn too, is to get the most out of the tension in situations and small things like to flash of the eyes, touch of the hand….And to stop the normal porn performance….To start to capture the new ways of seeing the erotic.

Girl Next Door

A lot of websites have this strange idea that the girl next door is a great selling point. Not if you knew the girl living next door to me. The girl I liked was a bus ride away. This may explain why we are so selective , only the most beautiful. After all if we spend the money on expensive cameras and lights why waste it on plain girls.
This is why I we will be filming a 1000 miles away to have a choice of these girls….

Star of Models

In pre production

Working on two films at the planning stage. One just a spur of the moment job, model looking for work, saw that she is a dancer and thought how erotic it would be to get her dancing naked to Dick Power’s sexy music…This will be a small crew just need help with the lights, sound will be easy as it will just be playback, drop the quality soundtrack in post.

The other film is one of the biggest we have tried since the SLAVE, There are 4 main parts, plus extras..plus 3 locations, lighting sound transport…Just spent the last hour looking at Models always difficult as which do people prefer a good actress or beautiful girl?

Seexy!

Answer to Reviews of Cinema Erotique

Regarding an interesting review at HQporn, we replied:

Thank you for taking your time to review our site.

You have a difficult task trying to compare very varied websites….

But sadly I feel that the system and way of thinking will never represent our website correctly to your readers…

How can you compare Pears with Bananas?

For example SimonScans does one thing over and over again…lots of girls and lots of content.

We build sets, compose music, write scripts…

Is our music not as good as SimonScans..?

Did we really do worse that “Only Blowjobs” Score 89.3 ?

The leading websites with 100 times our income, are they trying new ideas? Are they pushing the envelope? Or does MET ART just photograph girls is 3 or 4 different ways all done to a formula….yet all review sites give them top scores…

In a newspaper a small art film will get the same space as the Hollywood blockbuster but most web reviewers repeat the same 20 “top sites”…

Do you all really all like exactly the same in porn?

I find most of your porn sites really poor…they all look and do the same…in fact we want to recommend sites for our members and we are stuck…

Where are the other original erotic sites making material in a new way? Any suggestions?

As it goes you have given us a nice review but I think your site could be so much more if you challenged the “Porn mentality of doing each scene in exactly the same way,  and pushed for more originality ….

MET ART has a leading position in the erotic industry, I assume that have lots of money…You gave quality 9.8….So how good is the photography?

If is that good will it be on show in Art Galleries?, Books? Or is it a 9.8 porn value…? Where would you put a conventional art picture ?

If porn is not illegal why the special treatment….How do MET ARTs videos compare with normal TV and Movies…..they are completly lame …did you not notice?  The girl just wobbles around for a few minutes,,,

Now maybe what we do is also poor but please judge it by the same values you would a normal video….That is why we script edit and put music to the films…

Then you can also point out that our competition do not even attempt what we do….

Hope you find these comments of interest….

Best Wishes
