The Camera Makes It Kinkier
I don’t think it’s a secret to anyone that the same kinky play often becomes twice as hot when somebody pulls out a camera. Sure, it has to be safe in context; nobody gets off on non-consensual recording or outright breaches of privacy and trust. But with that warning, a camera in the scene can facilitate an exhibitionist’s pleasure, reinforce the shame or humilation of a punishment scene, or encourage a service submissive to work twice as hard to please not only her top who is there in the moment, but the whole audience (real or imagined) behind the lens and down the wires. Even something as simple as a few moments of masturbation becomes charged with additional erotic freight if a camera is there to transform it from private pleasure into lewd display and public performance for an audience.
I don’t know how far the effect holds true on a professional soundstage when serious pornographers are shooting proper porn movies to whatever cinematic standards the production budget will allow. When everything is structured around the cameras and the lights and the microphones and there’s people standing around wearing shirts that say “CREW” across the chest, I’m guessing the kinky fun is only as hot as the performers make it. But in the gap between bedroom and porn set, there’s a whole world these days of camming and intimate performance. Indeed, there’s a good argument that cams and camgirls are where you’ll find most of the vitality in the modern production of pornographic entertainment.
A live sex cam show such as the ones you’ll find at a site like Rabbitscams.sex might have an audience of just one, or a whole chatroom full of generous and encouraging onlookers. It’s less private than two people in a bedroom, but a whole lot more intimate than a porn shoot. Since I’m neither a cams performer nor one of their regular patrons and customers, I can’t say for sure, but I do think the camera enhancement effect, when leveraged at the scale of a single performer using their own bedroom as porn production studio, is one of the reasons why so many people have become sex cam enthusiasts.
