VAN NUYS, CA -- 07/28/09 --
Despite Apple's staunch anti-porn stance with
respect to its iPhone App Store, creative adult studios like Pink Visual
(www.pinkvisual.com) continue to work around the limitations imposed by
Apple, in this case by filming an entire scene using the iPhone 3GS.
While some adult entertainment companies have resorted to 'bait and switch'
schemes to temporarily finagle their explicit content into the App Store,
Pink Visual Brand and Product Manager Kim Kysar says that her company is
dealing with Apple's restrictions by essentially rendering them moot, and
pushing the envelope in other ways.
"We figured this was the next logical step in our ongoing fascination with
the iPhone," Kysar said. "Between the effort we have put in to make
iPinkVisual.com the best-optimized iPhone porn site on the planet, the 3D
content we have shot for use with the Wazabee 3D shell, and now a scene shot
entirely on an iPhone, I think it's safe to say we are the most
'iPhone-centric' porn company around."
The new scene is being published first as a webisode on MilfSeeker.com
(www.milfseeker.com), and features popular 'cougars' Lexi Lamour and
Diamond Foxxx.
Kysar said that Pink Visual has no interest in "playing games" with the App
Store, and that promoting their iPhone-optimized content outside of the App
Store offers the company both greater flexibility and better return on its
investment.
"Don't get me wrong; we'd love to be able to distribute our content through
a 'proper' iPhone app," Kysar said. "But the rules are the rules, and
that's all entirely Apple's call. Our focus is giving our iPhone-using fans
the best viewing experience we can, not trying to influence Apple's opinion
concerning hardcore porn."
Director Matt Morningwood, who shot the new scene for Pink Visual, said
that while it was a decidedly different experience filming with the iPhone,
the primary challenges did not stem from the device itself.
"If anything, it was too easy to shoot with the iPhone," Morningwood said.
"I'm used to HD cameras, boom mics, and all sorts of other peripherals
being part of the deal. The only thing that was difficult was holding the
phone steady with two knockout blonde cougars getting naked and going at in
front of the camera."
Morningwood said that while the iPhone obviously didn't yield the same sort
of quality and clarity that one gets from a high-end HD camera, the footage
has a rawness to it that actually contributes to the overall strength of
the scene and due to its small size, allows for it to cover certain angles
and close ups a little better then a standard video camera.
"The quality is pretty good for what it is," Morningwood said. "It
definitely gives the scene a strong sense of realism. Plus, anyone with a
3GS can watch this scene and imagine they were the ones shooting it, since
they have the same technology right there in their own pocket. Talk about
putting yourself in the action!"
Kysar said that Pink Visual is considering making iPhone-shot footage a
recurring feature within their reality porn productions.
"As Matt observed, the nature of the footage definitely augments the
immediacy and realness of the scene," Kysar said. "It's an easy thing to
get carried away with, though, and we don't want to overdo it. But it's
good to know that shooting content on the iPhone is a viable option, and
something special we can add to the mix now and again."
Pink Visual, which was recently featured in the CNBC special "Porn:
Business of Pleasure" as one of the adult industry's cutting edge tech
companies, has explored a number of other channels for distribution of
hardcore content to the iPhone beyond their premium websites, including web
applications like iTouchHer.com (www.itouchher.com), and tools that
customers can use to create their own sexy iPhone wallpapers.
