The Making of.... Porn Negative Space w/ Brandi Belle

Not entirely certain if I will finish or "make" the intended Porn Negative Space of this "making of..."

I may have perhaps lost interest in the task and it probably works well enough as an unhelpful glimpse at the editing preview screen of a cropped Brandi Belle clip. A disinterested fiddle with the timeline cursor seems to work well with Brandi Belle, a porn star whose performance seems to be that of brattish indifference, a version of the familiar porn role of girl-next-door with stage directions to play the part almost inhuman, emotionless, sleep walking into gag positions. [bored] [dead] [mechanical]



I can't help but think the Brandi Belle act would work better if it didn't dip into the pleased-looking smirks and the implications [or this could just be my own interpretations] of some sort of win for a female porn star, in this respect I am uncertain as to how much it is self-aware and even playful. It may be more likely that it is just a porn product, operating as such catering to whichever tendrils grow strongest out of the paypal box. Perhaps there is no market for porn with actors acting [if need be] indifference, perhaps that market is catered for with the looks bordering on unwillingness in certain porn clips where the woman is presented as doing it [solely] for the money, financially desperate... and often deliberately ambiguous as to the veracity of the scenario and desire of the woman filmed - a blurred scene open to interpretation to whichever lens of desire/fantasy/fetish the viewer happens to be holding. Perhaps there is no market for indifferent porn in which all participants are indifferent.

I have perhaps-ed too much there.

And I am annoying enough to be amused by a "making of..." without the finished product.

[Said in "because, because, because" Wizard of Oz sing-song voice] Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps, perhaps... Perhaps it's the wonderful [pause] things [pause] it [pause] doesn't.
