Brains & Boobs: Colleen Photographs Debbie

(click to see full size)

Recently, two friends whose work I have long admired were introduced to each other for a photographic glamour session.

The first of these ladies needs no introduction from me as she is already well known in the adult community – Colleen Criss.

Colleen’s photographs and machinima have deservedly graced the pages of THE PORNSTARS blog many times; her own popular blog and flickr page are good examples of how to steadily build up a solid respected body of work over time.

All the photographs on this blog-post were created by Colleen.

Colleen is also appreciated for her technical understanding of SL photography - advanced lighting techniques, the viewer itself and post-production.

As an admin of THE PORNSTARS group, Colleen can often be seen showing patience, restraint and tolerance in group chat as she helps handle some or another delicate and/or potentially explosive situation.

For this session, Colleen was the photographer.

The second of this glamorous couple is perhaps not as well known in the Second Life adult community. Indeed, this is her first session as a glamour model even after having being in SL for nearly six years! Her name is Debbie Trilling and, although not particularly well known within the adult community she certainly is in other SL communities!

For this session, Debbie would be Colleen’s model.

Debbie Trilling

Debbie was the Creative Director for some of the biggest live shows in SL, including artistic interpretations of Pink Floyd’s ‘The Wall’ and Fritz Lang’s 1927 ‘Metropolis’, as well as producing over eighty mainstream machinima. For the last three years she was responsible for creating the climax of the ‘Burning Life’ festival in SL – the burning of ‘The Man’ itself - which occurs on the penultimate evening of the festival.

Debbie was one of the judges at last year’s THE SEXIEST adult machinima contest and it was from here that she started looking more closely at the adult art scene and appreciating the amount of creativity, talent and passion that the community possesses, and wanting to experience that for herself.

Colleen’s photos of Debbie on this page are the outcome those desires.

Colleen and Debbie are recognised as experts in their respective fields. As you can see from their pictures on this blog-post they are both also gorgeous and beautiful. They prove that having brains and talent and being sexy are not mutually exclusive!

Debbie Trilling

Both Colleen and Debbie appear in the September 2012 edition of ‘Busted’ – a SL magazine dedicated to busty ladies and prim boobs. Colleen has a full spread with photographs by Kei Frequency which also appeared on THE PORNSTARS blog; Debbie appears in the ‘Around the Community’ section. I wonder how many like me would like to see her in a full shoot! However, unsurprisingly, I understand there is a long waiting list to appear in the magazine!

I must admit that, although I have seen the vendors around, ‘Busted’ is new to me and I read it for the first time after being sent this month’s edition. The Senior Editor, Maggie Bluxome, has gained a reputation for exacting standards and high quality. The magazine reflects this; it is easily of equal quality to most other magazines on the SL circuit and I’ll be reading regularly now from on even though I am not a prim boob wearer. I found the articles interesting and informative, the photographs stunningly attractive. In the September edition we also see photographic sessions from firm favourites Jeanne Sahara and Aliecia Lionheart, as well as Colleen, Kei and Maggie.

To finish off, I embed below a video of Debbie’s only solo performance in her Second Life artistic interpretation of ‘The Wall’, the aptly named “Dirty Woman”! (EDIT: this video is blocked by EMI in UK and so I have replaced with another from 'The Wall' performance).

See her YouTube for the whole one hour performance which climaxes with the large puppets of The Judge, The Mother, The Wife and The Teacher and a massive collapse of the wall itself.

Adult Scene Director's MachinimUWA V Entry

'Fwd: Evolution' by Pixie Rain

"A Cybernetic Shaman and Cybernetic Dancer

travel through space, time and the inner dimensions in search of wisdom..."

This is a non-adult film.

However, we've always supported our adult directors here at 'The Pornstars' when entering the UWA Machinima contest. Last time around Bert Jedburgh, Pel Beaton and Scooby Mode all submitted entries and were covered here on the blog.

This time we have Pixie Rain, who is of course one of the most talented movie makers to work in the adult genre, doing what she does best with her usual class and artistic style.

'Fwd: Evolution' is a superb movie, superbly titled too as it aptly describes the journey you'll embark on when you watch this film.

Some wonderful imagery and some thoughtful content mean I enjoyed watching several times for very different reasons. You should listen, watch and absorb the movie in order to get the full effect and the Director's message.

Also on later viewings you can, as I described to Pixie yesterday when we spoke "take a magic carpet ride" and just let the scenes and images flow past you. I think probably John Lennon put it best "Switch off your mind, relax and float down stream".

The film does indeed take you on a journey and it feels like a literal one as Pixie's editing and filming techniques really take you on a flight through the movie's entire length - always going forward, always evolving.

Look out for the Cybernetic Shamen, who can be seen throughout, white rabbit like!

We wish Pixie all the best for the UWA Awards.

Machinima of this stature from artists involved in the adult scene can only help gain respect for some of the wonderfully produced adult content which gets released by others too. Much of which fully deserves praise by a wider machinima loving audience.

MachinimUWA V: Update

"To describe externals, you become a scientist.

To describe experience, you become an artist."

- Timothy Leary PhD (1920 - 1996)

Tim Deschanel is a Very Happy Man.

Tim is also a prolific photographer who has seemingly attended most all of the significant artistic events, installations and performances in Second Life since October 2007. His flickr consists of over 20,000 individually crafted photographs which document the creativity, individuality and ingenuity of the SL experience.

Dido Haas by Tim Deschanel

I was thrilled to see Tim had taken these pic's of me in my Rabbit Girl Porn Star persona while we were attending the opening of Dido Haas and Nitro Fireguard's new art gallery which exhibits their own work and, until the end of this month, the work of artist Dannyboyo.

Ordinarily I'd blog Dannyboyo's work in its own right, probably also cross-posting over at The Pornstars blog too for greater exposure. However, time pressures have prevented me from doing so, as I'll explain a little later.

Dannyboyo's work comprises of manipulating pornographic images to leave only abstract exaggerated shape and colour. Dannyboyo says, "the ... pieces retain the erotic quality of the original photo, but softened to a dreamlike, painterly state. For me, it brings new meaning." Well worth checking out.

Nitro Fireguard by Tim Deschnel

The reason I haven't blogged Dannyboyo's exhibition more fully is that I am up to my eyeballs working on my UWA "Seeking Wisdom" machinima entry, and have been for a few weeks now.

Sleep is suffering!

But, the film will be ready for the deadline!

It will be released publically on You Tube (and my blog here) sometime on Sunday 1st July.  However, on the evening of Saturday 30th June, Nasty Puddlegum is holding a small "premiere" over at his gaff for a few invited friends.

We'll screen the film and then applause, shout "WOW" and "AWESOME!", play "Woot!" and "Hooo!" gestures and otherwise congratulate each other in that over-sentimental, grossly emotional and vaguely embarrassing way that is a hallmark of Second Life social gatherings. It goes without saying that anyone refusing to participate in this traditional Second Life behaviour will be summarily ejected and banned.

If offered, don't eat the digestive biscuits.

'Rapture' Movie Review By Serenity Juneberry

‘Rapture’

By Pixie Rain

It almost seems unfair to review this movie after my initial two viewings and then again for my screen shots for this piece.

Because there is so much going on, so much to appreciate admire and enjoy on so many levels. I feel you cannot fully take in the whole experience unless you view it many times.

It's a tribute to Pixie that she has earned the right to have a new release anticipated and looked forward to so much. I have been checking her blog and waiting for this, waiting eagerly, then doing a final big "Oooooh! Yes!" when I spotted it at Kittyshack today.

The video ranges from cinematic trailer-like and very cool at it's opening thanks to some ‘Blade Runner’ like camera flights through a quite stunning glowing futuristic cityscape (look for locations in the credits)  and the very fitting, stirring voice-acting selections.

Through to a cool music video and on to some of Pixie's most graphic sexual content so far. All balanced with her usual artistic flare and vision. This has it all, enough to keep anybody transfixed for the duration and then hitting the play button again and again.

It's technically amazing. I absolutely loved the projector screen scenes.

Pixie has the prowess to pull off the technical side due to hard work, study, planning and just plain effort and will to bring us perfection.

It's very easy to sit back and be stifled and never bring your visions to the screen. Pixie throws off all the chains due to this hard work and thankfully letting us see what's going on in her minds eye.

All this and one of my favourite bands "The Specials" on the sound track!

Congrats to all the cast - you are extremely privileged to be part of this.

And huge congratulations to Pixie.

'The Kiss' Movie Review by Serenity Juneberry

‘The Kiss’

By Pixie Rain

There are a lot of opinions on just what or who is great, what should be happening or how things should be on the porn scene right now.

One uniting fact is everybody loves Pixie Rain!!!

One person’s art can differ from another. We all have the right to appreciate different movies but most of us can appreciate something quite special when it's put in front of us.

In the case of Pixie, most of us find ourselves completely absorbed by the amazing and highly imaginative imagery she captures.

It's quite ironic that somebody who does not even have both feet planted firmly in traditional porn has united so many on the scene and commands so much respect. Pixie gives us erotic artistic video, sometimes very hot, sometimes subtle, but always fitting and right.

A comment or compliment from Pixie on a movie I've produced it means so much - as I'm sure it does for others. I feel that sums up the esteem which she's regarded among fellow movie makers.

This is why it's very dangerous to bracket how things should be. If you have a talent to do what could be termed "emoting through video" to make the viewer really feel what's going on in front of them, no amount of dialogue or traditional story telling can top it.

I've watched almost hypnotized at times because all the elements blend and work so well. Nothing leaps out as wrong and breaks the spell even for a moment.

Pixie not only has the artistic eye needed to deliver us these special projects, she also has a huge amount of technical expertise which ensures her work looks pristine and high quality. As well as giving her an extra dimension through visual effects to further the experience and polish of her finished productions.

Anybody feeling they have gone as far as they can go in-world with capturing video and editing it should look at directors such as Pixie and see what other levels their work could be taken to by a visual effects or a post production phase.

If you can begin to master it like Pixie, you'll find it starts to shape your in world shoots, giving you total freedom to express yourself.

Blending art and technical skills can mean nothing is impossible.

There really is no limit to what we can achieve and capture filming in a virtual world. Imagination, amazing software available to all and new viewer enhancements are there for us all to use and explore.

Thankfully, Pixie embraces all this and always brightens up my screen.

METASEX : MAKES A BIG BANG IN THE METAVERSE

A movie review of ‘MetaSex’ by Serenity Juneberry which originally appeared on ‘The Pornstars’ blog, reproduced in whole here.
Tutsy & I wish to thank Serenity for this thoughtful piece.

‘MetaSex’

by Tutsy Navarathna

 

When I heard Tutsy Navarathna was crossing over to the World of Adult Machinima, I was extremely excited. An award winning mainstream machinima producer, who excels in that genre, producing a sex movie is a mouth-watering prospect!

I believe mainstream machinima artists flourish and become simply the best because when you actually analyze the content of our adult movies we are looking at anything between 70%-99% sexual imagery. There is no shame in that, we're making porn. My point is however, if you remove up to 99% of your movie content, what do you replace it with? How do you keep your viewers interested, amazed, dazzled, and excited? That is the training ground of an artist like Tutsy - who is now bringing that art, style, skill, imagination and sheer creativity to bear on a adult movie project.

Thanks to Pixie Rain, a prominent star of this film, and Tutsy himself I was sent a advance copy of this movie in glorious 1080p HD video. I have to say it was a truly amazing experience to watch.

I think it was after viewing number 4 that I felt I could pick my jaw up and be in a position sit down and write something to outline just how special it is.

“MetaSex” is, it turns out, as a perfect title as the movie itself.

‘MetaSex’ is a journey through every facet of fetish, sexual kink, turn on and sexual activity happening right now in Second Life.

Ironically this movie is so very Second Life and yet the production lifts the content far outside our regular views of our in-world experiences.

It uses some of the most impressive post production techniques I've ever seen. When somebody with this skill set has the attitude that Second Life is a tool where the sky is the limit visually, you are going to be in for a special and amazing journey as a viewer.

As you watch ‘MetaSex’, you are bombarded with spectacular imagery, relentlessly and uniquely pieced together, taking in a whole Metaverse of sexual pastimes.

You start to become aware how huge this project is as scenes within scenes unfold, hundreds of examples of carefully shot and created content is sent your way in a collage of video and stills blended, layered and collated together to give you almost a sense of riding through a gallery of video exhibits on a roller coaster which thoughtfully slows down long enough to let you enjoy, before moving on to the next eye-opening work of art.

One of the most powerful aspects of ‘MetaSex’ is the realisation that many of the scenario's fetishes and pastimes, even the outfits and fetish attachments, look very familiar to us all.

For many of us this is a stark contrast to "Real Life". In doing so ‘MetaSex’ can leave you contemplating the shortfall between your sexually liberated, confident, and exotic Second Life and your maybe more mundane Real Life!

If you've ever shot a movie in Second Life which required any type of post production you will have a special appreciation and admiration of this project. If you are a regular viewer then you are still going to come away knowing you seen something very special. Although, as with me, I expect it'll be about viewing number 4 or 5 before you start to just take in what you've seen.

It is a masterpiece!

I for one am honoured Tutsy has made this crossover into our genre of machinima. I hope it can inspire.

‘MetaSex’ was made by a highly skilled and experienced producer. The most special thing about it though is the imagination and the realisation of the producer of what a playground we have to film in, and what can unravel and how it can inspire you when you use it and start to think of it in such a way.

Outside the box there are works of art and some hugely enjoyable projects waiting to be made and pieced together. Not just by accomplished artists like Tutsy but by all of us, no matter where we sit on the learning curve in Machinima.

Jinx and Pixie Rule Britannia

“I like people with their own beauty”

-         David Bailey CBE (English photographer), 1999

All photographs and interview by Jinx Jiersen. This article was originally published on Emmanuelle Jameson’s ‘The Pornstars’ blog.

Jinx Jiersen: What is your favourite position and why?

Pixie Rain: Doggy position.

I like its animistic and primitive nature. Not being able to look each other "in the eye" creates a feeling of anonymity and disconnection; it is "fucking" rather than "making love".

That is a sexy feeling for me.

JJ: What is your least favourite position and why?

PR: 69’er.

Works perfectly in my imagination but in practice something always seems to go wrong, often with very messy results.

Perhaps I just need more practice.

JJ: What turns you on?

PR: Intelligent humour.

JJ: What turns you off?

PR: Mullet haircuts.

JJ: What sound do you love?

PR: I love the sound of breaking glass.

JJ: What sound do you hate?

PR: The click, whirl and bleep as an ATM cash machine retains my credit card for abusing my limit. Again.

JJ: What is your favourite curse word?

PR: "Bugger".

“Bugger" is a great word because depending on tone of voice and context it can mean either:
1) anal sex by a man with another man or a woman.
2) vaginal intercourse by either a man or woman with an animal.
3) a mild exclamation after an accident or mishap.
4) a term of endearment and affection for a loved one.

The Buggery Act of 1533 remains my favourite legislation of all-time.

JJ: What was your favourite role?

PR: Would it be too corny and predictable to say 'The Kiss' with Jinx Jiersen?

Yeah, I thought so too.

In that case, with Paddledog Oh in 'Showdown'.

JJ: What is your favourite movie?

PR: Difficult one.

Serenity Juneberry has built-up an enviable body of work.

Thorgal McGillivary's 'Dick Tasty' series is fabulously well produced.

Bert Jedburgh's movies will always make me immediately stop whatever I am doing to watch. 'Meow' was definitely one of my personal favourite films of 2011.

But, if I had to go out on a limb to name just one, it would be 'Disturbia' by Aurora Bentham.

JJ: How did you get started in the Adult Movie Industry?

PR: I started making edgy-sexual movies in Second Life in March 2010, soon after I started an account.

I had no idea at that time that SL had a thriving adult machinima community.

After three "inappropriate content" warnings from YouTube I searched for alternative places to post my films. I found NaughtyMachinima and posted them there instead.

My films were noticed by a number of popular bloggers including Emmanuelle, Serenity and Rayven - all of whom have been wonderfully supportive, along with others who have become close friends.

JJ: If heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the pearly gates?

PR: "I've extended your credit limit for Eternity.”
