“Adult video company, Pink Visual, has found a way to get porn onto the iPhone despite Apple’s restrictions on sexy apps. The company also claims to have shot the first porn scene using an iPhone 3GS,” Jonny Evans reports for Distorted-Loop. “Product Manager Kim Kysar said, ‘We figured this was the next logical step in our ongoing fascination with the iPhone…I think it’s safe to say we’re the most ‘iPhone-centric’ porn company around.'”
Evans reports, “Director Matt Morningwood, who shot the new scene for Pink Visual, said ‘If anything, it was too easy to shoot with the iPhone – I’m used to HD cameras, boom mics, and all sorts of other peripherals being part of the deal. The only thing that was difficult was holding the phone steady.'”
Evans reports, “Morningwood said that while the iPhone obviously didn’t yield the same sort of quality and clarity that one gets from a high-end HD camera, the footage has a rawness to it that ‘actually contributes to the overall strength of the scene and due to its small size, allows for it to cover certain angles and close ups a little better then a standard video camera.'”
Kysar said that Pink Visual has no interest in ‘playing games’ with the App Store, and that promoting their iPhone-optimized content outside of the App Store offers the company both greater flexibility and better return on its investment,” Evans reports. “‘Don’t get me wrong; we’d love to be able to distribute our content through a ‘proper’ iPhone app,’ Kysar said. ‘But the rules are the rules, and that’s all entirely Apple’s call. Our focus is giving our iPhone-using fans the best viewing experience we can, not trying to influence Apple’s opinion concerning hardcore porn.'”
Evans reports, “Pink Visual is considering making iPhone footage a regular feature of its productions.”
