This topic reminds me of a wetlook scene from the 70's show Fantasy Island. The ex Playboy centerfold Barbi Benton plays an actress wannabe who is set up in a shoot where she gets into a fight with another woman. They struggle and fall off a small dock into a pond. The director shouts "cut" and proclaims that he didn't like the shoot and want to try again. The girls go back to the dressing room to dry their clothes and hair. The next take produces the same unsatisfied reaction from the director who says something like 'dry them off and we'll try again'. This cycle goes on for 4 or 5 or maybe 6 retakes, it was great! Not only did the girls get dunked over and over again, but they had to get completely dry and made up again before the next take.

He must, besides you, Leon and some more, have the best job in the world. It is one thing I have been thinking of, when it comes to both Hollywood produtions, and your own. I understand that when you shoot a movie, the filmmakers allways shoot several shots of each scene, until they are satisfied. I really, really hope that is also the fact when it comes to the wetlook scenes.

Do you have any idea how many shoots they normally takes of a scene? Can we think the next time we see a beautiful wetlook scene, that not only did the actress get wet that time, but probably several times more. Have your friend talked anything about this?

future wetlook in movies

Just had an update from my buddy Mike Valentine who shoots underwater scenes in Hollywood movies & numerous music videos.

http://www.valentinefilms.com/mainpage1024.htm

Mike is a wet clothing fan too, so whenever he is allowed to direct music videos himself he almost always has the girls clothed in the water.

Anyway...he gave us an alert for 2 movies to watch out for. Earlier this year he was shooting Demi Moore on location in Wales...in several wet scenes for her upcoming movie HALF LIGHT...look for that to be released later this year.

And the latest news is that he says is has just been shooting Sharon Stone last week in the water tank at Pinewood Studios...they are currently doing a sequel to BASIC INSTINCT...and in the sequel Sharon gets trapped in her car underwater...look for that movie to be released in earlu 2006.

More info here..

My personal favorite is still the COME UNDONE music video he did with Duran Duran.
