Babysitting Without a Net

[Helmhood]

Hi there,

Perhaps some of you might have heard already, but for those who haven't, I hope it is OK to post a message about my first independent film that I produced, entitled, "Babysitting Without a Net". For more information you can check out the film website at:

http://www.babysittingwonet.com

The film was inspired by the tales of Ann the Hapless Babysitter, written by JailBait, and posted at Indian Outlaw's forum some years ago. The story is funny, erotic, and a celebration of female beauty.

Oh, and as a fan of ENF, there are plenty of such scenes throughout the picture. I would like to invite everyone to view the trailer at the website. And I am also attaching some enf screen shots from the DVD.

I would be happy to discuss the film here at this forum, or through direct e-mail.

Thanks,

Looks good. There is not much detail about the actual DVD on your site. How long is the movie?

[Helmhood]

Hey Shan,

The DVD is 40 minutes. I consider it like a typical televsion drama (such as Law&Order, etc...) but without the commercials

Anyway, I hope you at least enjoyed the trailer clip and those frames I grabbed from the DVD!

Thanks,

Joe

Good deal. I just ordered it. Thanks!

Actually, I did have a couple questions:

- How did you find Monica Himmelheber? I think it is great that your actresses are all actually actresses. That is definitely one of the main selling points of the movie.

- How did you sell the role to her? Was it hard to convince her?

- I've always wanted to ask this one: What was it like working with an actress who had to be naked for most of the movie, i.e. what was it like for her and what was it like for you?

- Have you made any other films and will you make any more ENF films in the future? Believe me, there is a huge market for them...

Thanks, and I will be ordering soon.

Hey Fango,

Thanks for your post! We actually held auditions back in March for all three parts. As you can imagine, we saw over 50 young ladies for the parts of AMY and LOUISE, but only a dozen were brave enough to try out for the more demanding part of LAURA_ANN. Yes, Monica is truly a gem, and we were fortunate when she replied to our casting notice and read the script. It helps that she used to be an art class model. But her acting skills were just beyond our wildest dreams. I think the playfulness and light-hearted yet intelligently written screen-play is waht sold it to her.

On set, Monica was always treated professionally and with the upmost respect. There was always a robe ready for her when the camera was not rolling. Although I have to tell you, there was an absolute hush over the crew during the filming of her "dusting/cleaning" scene. She is also very down to earth and a joy to work with. Not a Diva at all, and she really had a good time with the whole thing.

This is in fact my first independent film project. My intention is to make more high-quality films that are inspired by other "Stripping Naked" stories, and thus will most certainly contain themes of ENF. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that things go well with this first effort.

Thanks,

Joe

This movie looks fantastic! I'm so glad to see someone making films for our type of audience. I hope you have a long and prolific career . Also, any chance of there ever being a download version for sale?

Looks great!!

Do you ship to Europe? Or even better is it available for downloading? I mean buying it of course.

Let me make sure I understand this correctly (because I'm thickheaded and slow on the uptake, so bear with me)...

You produced a TV-episode length straight-to-DVD movie based on concepts previously explored in amateur/semi-professional internet porn literature? Have I got this right?

If I do, I have about half a billion questions for you that unfortunately all of the readers of this board would find excruciatingly boring because they don't relate to sex, nudity, voyeurism or ENF, but I'm dying to ask. Any way I can get my questions to you?

BTW, bravo for embarking on this project. Actually making a video entry in this genre takes balls

Hey guys,

OK, lots to cover, so I'll get right to the point. I have no immediate plans to make the film available for download on the website. I am very proud of the finished look fo the film, which was a Hi-Definition conform and color correction. This will play best on a television or ultimately on a theatre screen (when we get into film festivals). Even the DVD quality if you play it on your computer will be better than a streaming download. So right now, the only distribution is on DVD.

Yes, I have shipped to Europe (so far, orders from the UK, Germany, and Sweden!) as well as Australia and Canada for that matter. There is no extra charge for Global Priority mail. All I need to know is if you can play an NTSC Region 1 DVD, or if I need to convert to a PAL format. So far, all of my overseas customers have had no problem playing the DVD.

Gorgon, I would be happy to answer your questions via e-mail. There is a contact form on the film website, but my address is: helmhood@earthlink.net

I'm not sure if I would characterize this project the way you did (no offense, and none taken here) I just think it is a little more special In other words, besides the current DVD distrubution, we are submitting to national and international film festivals. Its very Artistic and the cinematography alone is amazing. It's kind of like a throw-back to those European erotic comedies... maybe we'll be lucky enough to show at Cannes!

Thanks to everyone for your responses!

Joe
