RE: Dionne Daniels - Chat & Discussion
I've been wanting to phone in for a while, to speak to Dionne. First she was standing up in the alleyway, then now she's standing up in the White Room. But I cannot understand what is going on with this camerawork:
The camera's often being held just a few feet off the ground, making me feel like I'm 2 feet tall and making Dionne look about 22 feet tall. It's like they're giving you a "baby's eye view" of Dionne, but that's just bizarre.
Then they're twisting the camera to 45 degrees to the left, so you have to crick your neck to carry on watching.
Most of the time the camera is being held so close to Dionne all you get to see is 1 body part at a time.
In all of this time the cameraman has never once stepped backwards and given us a decent fullbody shot of Dionne, from a normal camera angle/height.
Whatever happened to keeping things simple, why do they go for these odd camera angles, camera heights, and really really close up images of 1 single body part at a time?
Like I said, I wanted to phone Dionne tonight but there's no way with this strange hand-held camerawork. I cannot tell you how irritating it is watching camerawork like that - it is so distracting and a complete turn-off.

RE: Dionne Daniels - Chat & Discussion
I'd agree with that. I love handheld when done well, where we get up close and get better shots, but the stuff with Dionne was a bit much. I like movement and not the tripod stuff all of the time, but I also must have full body shots too. I guess I like the tripod for when the women are only turing in a 360 angle, as long as we can see all of them. However, a little handheld can be very nice, like what is used on Caty, Charlie and even Mica when she did the oil session. I want detail, but I need to breath as well.
Dionne is adorable, but her shows are quite frustrating because she never goes nude, at least she hasn't for a while. She does a lot of teasing, making you think she's about to take it off, but she doesn't! For me, if a woman has gone nude even just a few times, but stops doing it, I tend to lose interest, because there are many other women who will go nude. I think all of the women should realize that once they go naked, that the majority of viewers will expect them to do it again. I'm hoping she will for tomorrow night.
Fingers crossed
