Thief: New Animation

November 19, 2012

Its strange how what I do is both incredibly freeing as well as confining. Freeing in the sense that I can take otherwise unrelated photos and, with a bit of Photoshop and a bit of writing, transform them into erotic mind control art. Feeling like I could take just about any decent photo (within reason) and turn it into an expression of my EMC fetish is the part that’s so freeing.

The bit that’s constricting is that, lately, I have ideas that I don’t have material to bring to life. I am limited by what I can find to turn into pictures and animations. Sometimes the inspiration goes places that I don’t know how to capitalize on. As empowering as the former scenario is, the latter is equally frustrating.

However, tonight’s new animation is, happily, an example of just how satisfying it can be when the idea is born from the material. I’ll prattle on all about it in a moment. For now, indulge yourself with my latest creation and find out some of the more erotic perils faced by a high-society burglar in Thief.

Guided Therapy: New Animation

November 9, 2012

Welcome back dear reader! I hope you’ll excuse the lack of updates over the past month, but October was an especially busy month in vanilla-life. As fun as that’s been, I’ve been anxious lately and eager to post something new. While work on the new video-manip continues, I decided to take a break this evening and whip up some new material.

In Guided Therapy, a wife in marriage counseling is surprised at how effective her young therapist’s treatment is. Check out the animation, then read on for my director’s commentary.

Playboy Took My Job

October 11, 2012

Now, if you’re a South Park fan, you’re probably already saying “They tikk ur jerb!” If you’re not a South Park fan, that joke goes a little something like this.

Now that we’ve got that out of the way…

So this past week I came across a few photos from a Playboy shoot of a model named Sydney Barlette wearing a set of VR goggles and looking…well looking like she was being programmed with some sort of sexiness. I grabbed the images in question, thinking it would make for a quick manipping session. Lets face it, if I don’t have to add the brainwashing goggles myself, there’s not much left to do other than write.

So, having saved the images, I was closing the browser tab and my eyes just happened to glance over a bit of the text description informing me that I should join Playboy Plus to view the full res images…

…along with the video.

I literally, not figuratively, did a double take and scrambled to reopen the page I’d just closed. Some photog at Playboy put a woman in a brainwashing contraption (c’mon, no one’s buying this as a vr-themed shoot), took some pictures, and then shot video of it. I had to see it. I could not stand the idea of such a video existing and not seeing it.

Meet My Hypnotic Mistress

October 2, 2012

Okay, I baited you with that title. Its a cheap ruse, I can admit it. But I promise you that if you walk through the curtain the result will be much closer to a man-eating-chicken, rather than a man…eating chicken.

So, just to be clear, I have not fallen under the irresistible spell of an online hypno domme. Rather, I want you to meet someone who has been a powerful presence in many of my manips and has been, exclusively, a figment of my imagination…until now.

This girl Has a Serious Brainwashing Fetish

September 24, 2012

I don’t think many of us in the EMC community would argue that our fetish is, by and large, one confined to the realm of fantasy. Yes, hypnosis is real, yes hypnosis works for some people. But actual hypnosis and the fetish-flavor we tend to peddle in are rarely the same thing. No mystical hypno-orbs; no mind-controlling serpents; no flashlight-shaped devices that turn people into slaves. Many of the trapping of our fetish can only exist in the imagination.

Many, but not all.

Just Something I’m Thinking About Tinkering With

September 14, 2012

Greetings friends. I haven’t had much time to post recently on account of not wanting to pull myself away from work on the new video manip that is in-progress at the moment. I don’t want to tease too much, too soon, so I’ll refrain from saying more; other than I’m very pleased with how it’s turning out.

For tonight though, I was just browsing through a large dump-folder of potential manip material and clearing out some unneeded pic sets when I came across a small series I’d forgotten I had. The lovely brunette in the above pic is Sophie Howard, who did a delicious photo series for Bizarre magazine a few years ago that focused on hypnosis as a sexual fetish. thrall has one of the images in the sidebar of her blog that you can check out if the idea of a topless Ms Howard wielding a pocket watch appeals to you at all (and if it doesn’t you must surely be lost on this site).

The reason I saved this image originally and that I’m studying it a little tonight, is the unique combination of Sophie’s pose, the glass window she’s pressed up against, and her reflection in said glass. When I saw this pic, I immediately landed on the idea of

You Must Be thrall

September 4, 2012

After a couple months of pondering and a few weeks of actually planning, I’m sitting in the lobby of my hotel, watching the door that thrall is going to walk through in a few minutes. I’m nervous. Though my ‘real’ personality peaks through here and there, Callidus is a more reserved version of who I am. thrall has been friends with Callidus, online, for years but now we’re talking about *** and *** being friends, live and in-person; and that’s got me a little worried.

I’ve tried to prepare her for this in the emails we’ve been sending back and forth in the weeks leading up to today; letting more and more of the mask fall away so that she’s not taken aback by how… un-reserved I tend to be as me. But still, I’m worried that she and I won’t get along as well as she and Callidus do.

I look up and she’s walking across the lobby towards me with this big grin on her face and I start chuckling uncontrollably

Ivy Says

September 2, 2012

I’m sitting here in the hotel room, waiting on my sweetie to drag herself out of bed (she’s not a morning person). In a little over an hour we’re going to meet thrall and spend the day with her. But first, I thought I might share some more comic-mind-control hotness, which I teased you with a little last time.

About ten years ago, in the Batman monthly comic, DC ran what is, to date, probably my favorite Batman story arc: Hush. Written by the famed Jeph Loeb and with artwork by the legendary Jim Lee, Hush was sold, at the time, as exactly what it would become: a blockbuster. Hush featured some of the best villains from Batman’s acclaimed rogues gallery as well as some of his greatest allies. It also has, for my money, the definitive Batman-Catwoman romance arc.

And speaking of Catwoman…

Meeting thrall…In the Really, Real World

August 24, 2012

Last time, I told you I’d elaborate on my summer travel plans. What I didn’t tell you was why.

thrall and I have been friends for years now. If I remember correctly, she emailed me, at the suggestion of Tabico, sometime in 2005 to promote her just-opened blog and we’ve been crafting epic email chains ever since. Although we hadn’t spoken in a little while, earlier this year we re-connected and started talking summer movies, writing, Joseph Gorden Levitt (and whether he’d end up wearing a Batsuit), and plenty more; we really do have a lot in common.

Rumors of My Death, etc etc

August 21, 2012

Well poop its been something like four months hasn’t it? How have YOU been dear reader? I’m keeping well, busy with vanilla life and trying to do a little traveling this summer (more on that later). But I have been neglecting things here, which I aim to begin rectifying…nowish.

So a quick update on things. Firstly, I am currently in-progress on a couple of projects that I’m eager to share with you all. One is a squick-a-licious manip series that’s been quite a few years in the making and secondly… Well, secondly is a new video manip. Of all the things I’ve done, Orientation has far and away gotten the biggest response over the years and I still get regular mail from people saying they enjoy it and asking when I’m going to do another video.

To which I can now answer: soonish. Quite soonish.

I won’t say more now, but I’ll have a more formal tease soon and drop a few more details 🙂

For now though, I’d like to share some more erotic-mind-control-in-comics hotness that I’ve been enjoying recently. Last time, I told you about the excellent series The Sixth Gun, today I thought we’d visit more familiar territory for comic and non-comic geek alike: Batman.
