LOS ANGELES — VRBangers.com is reporting success with the unique head rig it developed to help performers transition from 2D to VR porn roles.
While fans are becoming accustomed to the VR porn user experience, one important obstacle in the production process has been the way models interact with the camera itself. Rather than an unobtrusive camera set off to the side of a studio as performers get intimate with each other, in a VR scene a camera is literally the center of attention and the models must be able to extend the intimacy of the scene toward an inanimate object as a proxy for their attraction to any human costar.
According to VR Bangers’ Daniel Abramovich, when the firm began producing VR content there were no out of the box solutions, so “thinking outside the box quickly became part of our company DNA.”
“Anyone can slap a dozen GoPro cameras to a stick and pretend they are a content producer,” Abramovich explains, “but when you start to see the distant emotionless content that low-tech choice creates, it’s easy to see that it’s insufficient and your audience will definitely let you know that quickly,”
Abramovich says that rather than pumping out faux-VR content with low-quality gear that performers have to work around, VRBangers chose to innovate by creating the first VR head rig.
“It’s an anatomically correct physical head fully equipped with binaural microphones in its ears, proprietary hardware embedded in its skull and a custom camera configuration of its eyes,” Abramovich reveals. “Yes it sees and hears much the same way a costar normally would, but perhaps even more importantly it looks a lot more something you’d want to have sex with than any GoPro on a stick ever will.”
The technology is designed to boost intimacy in a native VR environment.
“It’s not about filming with a camera that looks like a head,” Abramovich concludes, “it’s about having the chance to be the head thanks to the creative work of our crew, the evolving VR technologies we are helping to create, and many of the most beautiful women on Earth.”
