Making Virtual Reality Porn - GQ Magazine vrdirector interview
What really separates a VR porn shoot from your run-of-the-mill shoot is the number of people who need to be involved to make it work. Daniel Dilallo, a director for 3X Studios, a porn production company in Los Angeles that works exclusively with Vivid, recently shot The Kim Kardashian Superstar VR Experience (a killer video that uses a Kim Kardashian lookalike to pick up where the real sex tape left off). Dilallo let me in on some of the hardships of shooting VR.
“The women can’t actually be too close to the camera,” says Dilallo. “They have to have their scenes blocked out and the actress needs to know where she can and cannot go.” Men have it worse. Generally, guys are stuck in one position with a camera going over their shoulder. “It’s difficult for the guys to even see what’s going on, which makes timing especially hard. He has to sit back, he can’t use his hands. It’s hard for the guys to last.” The camera bares resemblance to some of the clunky robots of the 1950s sci-fi era and usually hovers over the dude’s shoulder as he struggles to recall every unsexy scenario he’s ever encountered in a strained attempt to not finish. It’s a world away from your typical porno shoot.
