'one of Britain's most successful adult movie directors, '
I've never heard of her.
'"I think over the past 15 years there has been a marked change in the nature of pornography being offered. We're talking about a subtext of violence, hair pulling, slapping, spitting, abusive language during sex. The very extreme gender power relationships in which the man is all powerful and the woman is submissive."'
Mr Johnson you are an ignorant cunthead.
Paul Mason, stick to business reporting.

If you google around a bit, you'll find out that she directs gay porn.
Who is Britain's most successful gay porn director? I don't know, I have no clue.

Pure XXX have produced for a wide range of companies including TVX and Playboy and many other overseas companies and yes there has been a marked change in the content we cannot deny that but I would say that it has been driven by trends of producers trying to outdo each other and models who felt the need to push themselves further to outdo their peers.
On the whole I feel this extreme porn thing is more theatrical than real. A combination of style over content in that it can be slickly edited with production values to make it look more than it actually is

I am not a director or film maker, but I saw some teaser on tv where Laura Macrow (I assume) was holding a camera - she seemed to have large earphones on - and was actually talking to the actors as she was, presumably, filming it. Now, how does her voice not reach the film sound track? Seems like it was a set up just for the cameras from the BBC?

Obviously a MOS (mute) shot Its quite a popular thing to direct actors without a soundtrack that would be added in later. Thats what professional film makers do anyway depending on your edit style
Or it couldve been staged as directed by the BBC. I had to cut the producer off at the knees that began directing me on how I would do shoots for Real Couples. I refused and told them I dont work that way. I do my own thing. Keep up.
When they say they shoot reality shows it really isnt that real when its scripted and do retakes
Laura and her team are pro's
