So i recently posted a trailer on footfetish tube and some guy thinks he's speaking for the entire foot community in saying that a lil music in porn is hated. Well since i only put music in my trailers and obviously try to steer traffic to purchase full videos i didnt think it mattered...see for yourself in this clip I believe that if the music isnt corny and give you an ackward vibe then it should fly. No lyrics just something to set the feeling while you devour a pair of beautiful feet. http://www.footfetishtube.com/video/48642/jamie-game-night-footjob
please reply with your thoughts

the start of the clip its fine, but music all the way through kills the clip.

i feel ya..and i only use it for intros and outros..but in this trailer its through....subtle and low...no hip hop, rock or country..something u hear in fetish clubs..again its a trailer..cant spank it to just a preview...its just not right Posted by Rider Aldebaran (Member # 38525) on :
Doesn't matter for me, since I tend to mute most of the vids I watch, anyway.
Posted by combine_hunter (Member # 39526) on :
Yeah, I agree, it's fine in a trailer.
But as for full videos? Out!

I don't care much for music in my porn unless it's of the "Bow chicka-wow-wow" variety. Sex + funky bass line = awesome.

Also... let me ask this. What if the clip is BANGING? What if you really like it... would the music stop you from buying a good clip that may be visually on point?

I absolutely hate music in the videos I watch, bangin' or not. Even if i wrote the damn song I wouldn't want it screwing up the clip.

That guy doesn't speak for all of us. The music is fine, the clip was great.
The only time music interferes is when it's played over the voices/moaning and you can only hear music.
The way it's done in these trailers where it's passive and low is perfect and helps to accentuate the video.
Plus the chick in blue is bangin!

I don't mind porn in regular porno but am not a fan of it in feet related vids of any kind unless its a montage of pictures. I think its because we like to hear everything said and gauge the reaction of those within. Whether u are into the dom thing of jo instruction or if ur like me and like the cute sensual stuff its nice to hear the woman whose feet are being worshipped express themselves. Now there are way to many videos where the girl doesn't really know what to say or just sounds sill, in this sense a little music could be in order
Posted by Jay the Footman (Member # 42837) on :
*nods and rubs chin* thanks for letting me know. I was also curious...
Posted by baalfootish (Member # 33991) on :
Haha porn in my porno. I meant to say MUSIC in my porno. Again I don't mind music in the banger stuff. But not so much in the foot stuff. But I also think that if you have the right tunes it always can work. For instance if the sensual stuff I like has the voice at a high volume, I don't mind 'massage parlor' style music in the background. But mostly I prefer the foot stuff without music
Posted by aerodrew (Member # 2682) on :
What I really prefer is "real & believable" dialogue going on over music... But that seems rare... Actually the majority of videos have dialogue that is fake & scripted by models that have no interest in what they are doing. It's really more of choosing the lesser of three evils... Music, bad dialogue or muted.. In which I would lean towards bad dialogue.
Posted by catsman (Member # 10269) on :
I do not like it. It is distracting to me.
Posted by oneagain (Member # 35859) on :
I am more of a 'gonzo' porn type fan...Not the muppet:P...just more straight on doing it...
Music tends to cover up the moans and intimate talking.
...that being said...I can understand music is needed when the model needs to be coached in like foot porn, etc...then I understand I have to deal with it!

Most of the time productions of "clips" will add music not for mood setting but to cover up bad dialogue recording or what they believe to be background noise. It is de-factor a reason to avoid music period, as the production sound is already uneven and will add more confusion when mixed with a music track, A bad idea overall. I think this is not the case here with this video so here goes.
@Veronica V./OP:
In the video clip in question linked to above, I heard two things that may irritate the viewer.
Diegetic Sound is in stereo, a big no-no, the two girls in front and camera operator in the back, a big no-no as it adds stereo separation and positioning similar to what music is. They are sitting at a stereo stage.
Speech should be in mono and dead center in both channels, music bed in stereo, that way psychoacoustically they do not overlap.
The music bed contained a lot of bit-crushing/noise effects - pertinent to that genre, they sounded a lot like recorded production sound, causing annoyance when listening as they are with in the same frequency range. This annoyance is _subliminal_ more so then conscious. Thereby someone says, "this is bad" or "i don't like it" etc.. But all the bit crushed shakers sound just like the "s" in "so talented" then "ksshhh..." from the music - also those music effects mask all the other PFX or Production Effects, including breathing, things you'd pick up from the bed, rumble during movement, making it less realistic, unless those are put back in afterward as on a SFX tracks or Foley.
Music queues on cross-fade do not match the edit points on the first dissolve. And the cue takes longer to fade than the 15 frame dissolve on video. Typically the music x-fade should come in after the edit point if a dissolve is ahead, or if there is a x-fade it should just be a smash cut to the next scene. X-Fade should be less than 5 frames of video long in that situation.
Music is mixed above the dialog norm for dynamic range of video or motion picture, vs. CD records.
Music does not have volume fader rides when talent is speaking, nor a side-chain compressor on the audio track that reacts to the speech track causing a decrease in music volume. Hence the perceived "drowning" in sound effect and difficulty making out what is being said.
Veronica V. you're more than welcome to Google any of the following and read about it. But this is pretty much my analysis of "why" the responses was less than what was expected.
Music can be used, just needs to be used with greater care, and obviously more stereo separated than center channel speech. This way during quiet moments music can be heard, and so can speech of the actors involved.
Obviously this is hard to do on a C4S post production budget, this is why most leave music out, outright.
It also sounds like the dialogue track contained some elementary broadband noise reduction on both channels making speech sound very tinny and shiny loosing its original timbre.
Overall sounds like some work did go into the sound of this trailer, so I can empathize with the feeling you have after the response and commentary.

Music for the few seconds of an intro or outro is fine, but with few exceptions, I find music throughout clips irritating.
Posted by mmmtoes (Member # 30792) on :
I can't stand music in my porn. I think it ruins it.
Anyone familiar with Fellucia Blow (Camille Crimson)? She has some fantastic blow job videos that are always overlayed with "artsy" music.
Some of the best BJ videos I have ever seen, but I don't like them nearly as I would if the music was excluded.
Posted by feetluvr (Member # 1570) on :
Out for me. a little lead-in music is fine but then I want no music.I want to hear all the sounds.
Posted by FIASCo (Member # 1899) on :
I guess I should clarify that I'm talking about feet-related clips. I don't watch the rated R stuff.
