About 10 days ago my HD camera developed a fault, intermittent at first and then constant. I lost recordings from two shoots. I have just acquired a replacement camera (used) and employed it yesterday to film a nice set with Jasmine. Alas, the previous owner had left some pre-set audio settings engaged and in my haste, I did not reset the camera to its factory settings to clear these. As a result, everything recorded with Jasmine has no soundtrack.

This, coupled with the lowest sales since January 2007 (mainly owing to lack of updates and only a small percentage of my library being available in the B2B Fetish Store), has led to a devastating month so far. The camera has now been adjusted and works fine, but it's too late for Jasmine's content. I suppose if there is a question in all this, it's to find out if anyone is interested in having her movies with no sound?

Depends on what the movies are about.

And who's next?

I am a BIG Jasmine fan. I buy every minute of her that you shoot. No sound ... no problem !!

1) Jasmine stands in front of a toilet in the garage (not plumbed in) and squirms in serious desperation. She tells a tale of getting stuck in traffic on her way to work (something I will get her to repeat in the future). She takes off her dress and pees through her panties - fast flow - she was desperate!

2) Jasmine (denim mini-skirt, shoulderless top, socks and sneakers) is surprised by an intruder (female) when she arrives home and is forced to stand outside while dying to pee. The dialogue exchange was a lot of fun and I mourne its loss, but Jasmine's wiggling is all there, plus she pees fairly dramatically at the end.

3) Jasmine has just got off the bus (her car is in for repair) and hobbles all the way down the drive while on the phone to her boyfriend. Sounds in the woods prevent her going in there, so she holds on until she reaches the house. She discovers she has left her keys on the bus and has to squat on the lawn to pee (panties down).

4) It's very early in the morning and Jasmine arrives home in a party dress, dying to pee. The bathroom is occupied so she sits and waits for five minutes. She is bursting and persuades her house mate to let her in. She dashes in and uses the toilet while the housemate (unseen) is in the shower. The shower was running, making things even harder for Jasmine.

Oh wow! What a set to lose ! Was it really on mute!? Like actually fully muted?? Who records things on mute lol!?

Maybe you need to check a short segment of a movie after each take for a while to make sure it doesn't happen again - or can you not do that on these newer cameras? (I understand this wasn't exactly your doing in that it was a preset setting, but just to make sure this camera doesn't play up / stop working too)

I'm really gutted that these came out with no sound, the descriptions are really good. I'm sure I'd be tempted into buying one or two of them even without sound, is it safe to presume that they wouldn't be full price? - at least on the b2b store, I understand c4s is lame lol.

Is there any harm in releasing them on the b2b store? Like does it cost you a lot, either in editing time - though I'm sure we would be understanding that this type of set doesn't need to be top quality on editing or to upload it to the store?

I'm still shocked by...mute!? Really!? Lol....[insert biggest facepalm meme]

What a disaster Dave! Why do the nicest people get the worst luck?

Well, Dave, a hundred years ago all movies were silent. If you could publish Jasmine's clips in black and white, with a little simulated flicker and some jerky motion, with or without subtitles, but with a little dramatic piano music dubbed in, you might have a winner. Just a hundred years late. Seriously, publish them anyway. Sorry about the "technical difficulty" with the new camera.

There was a movie some years back where Jynx was tied up, desperate to pee and talked directly to the viewer about her situation.

What you could do is film a similar movie in future with Jasmine, but she could also recount other desperate experiences and how this is just the latest in her run of bad luck. This is where you could use the silent footage you have, with Jasmine narrating the tale of each movie.

It's not ideal since you'd be selling a days footage as one movie, and it's a fair bit of editing. But it would salvage 4 good movies and give you some return.

Wow, Dave! That was a most generous offer from Jasmine.

I believe it is a testament to the excellent working relationship you must have with some, dare I say most, of your models. Well done on both your parts. Honesty and forthrightness always pay off.

Dave, in the "tale of getting stuck in traffic on her way to work", did she make it??;)

That is awesome, what an awesome girl! Any chance we can get a similar movie with the unplumbed toilet where she actually uses it even though it isn't hooked up? Either she doesn't realize until it won't flush or she knows but as a last resort she decides it is better to use it then to go on the floor? Something like that. Just a suggestion, but major fan of Jasmine here.
