Greta's Expansive Journey on TaylorMadeClips - does she pop?

Hey there,

Taylor has a new clip out, by X-Spander: Greta's Expansive Journey

The description reads: 'Greta wanders through the woods following the bread crumbs her brother left as a trail for her. They lead her to a strange house where she find`s his clothes in tatters. It looks like he swelled up & expanded until he exploded...'

So given that the description mentions that her brother had previously exploded, and given that X-Spander have done popping before, does Greta either explode, or at least does she repeatedly worry about exploding during the clip? None of the text gives any indication as to what actually happens in the clip.

I did ask on Taylor's own forum, but that is a generally quiet forum so I could be waiting a long time for an answer, whereas there may be people here who have already downloaded the clip and can inform me.

She does not pop.
 
The BE is good, but it stops too soon and she's seated the entire time. I know it's a technical matter with the effect, but the seated stuff bothers me, for some reason. 
The ass expansion is more of a thigh expansion, which looks clunky to me because of the shape, which you can see in the preview. If the odd shape doesn't bother you, then you'll like it. 

I guess the clip gets a C+ from me. Off topic, but I also got Maxgrowth's "Of Bridezillas and Boobage," which I was very disappointed with- and it's $20. I'm not sure of the positive reviews I saw were for the same clip. It's 85% (not an exact percentage, by any means) talking and when there is process, it's shown in super close up on a motionless model- most of it when she's sleeping. The process and props would have looked great on an upright subject reacting to the experience. X-Spander's Greta clip at least had her reacting to her inflating bosom(in not a very convincing way, but better than just remaining motionless). I'm kind of learning to stay away from the Maxgrowth clips.

Thanks for that.

I have noticed that in Taylor's own as well as in X-Spanders (and now you say MaxGrowth's) clips, a lot of the actual inflation happens in extreme close up so all you see is something stretching that could as well be a balloon, or also sometimes at really unusual camera angles.

I'm not sure whether this is a technical restriction with the props, where you can't show the full body until it's fully inflated, or if it's simply that this is how most people actually prefer it, but I'd like to see more full body inflation at full body camera angles.

I got sick of how many times Greta says "oh my god".  It just keeps on over and over and over.

I guess some people do dig the extreme closeups, but they do nothing for me. They keep touting button popping or clothes bursting in the clips, but it's either a really closeup shot of a button popping off or the actress physically tears the clothing herself. Going back to the Wonka scene again, I think the belt pop works so well because it just happens in the middle of the scene. No close up. No big deal about it- it's just part of the inflation. I wish they would film an expansion scene that just lets these things happen(yeah, perhaps to pre-prepared clothing). 
 Another odd thing I've noticed is that I really need to see the woman's waistline during BE. When it's a chest up shot or when the model is sitting down, you lose that.

Sadly Taylormadeclips has turned into quantity over quality. She gave the people her hand, but now they are eating up her arm.

It's not just inflation there now, it's all kinds of fetishes, and you can clearly tell that the quality takes a hit.

Even her bodyinflation / suit-inflation videos doesn't do it for me anymore

I have bought a couple of the more inexpensive ones and have come out of it disappointed. The really good bits are shown in the preview, and the rest of what the character says is not really appealing. I'd like to give them another chance but its hard without any reference besides previews.

I think Taylor was always a multiple-fetish producer.

I guess you have to accept that Taylor's only knowledge of what is liked within the community comes from what people have told her is liked. I think she did giantess before anything else, and it appears that those people really like close ups of tights laddering and shoes snapping. Some of her early inflation clips had these sorts of things in assuming that inflation fans would be broadly the same as giantess fans in their tastes. They don't appear any more, but if not for technical reasons then it is possible the extreme close-ups are a hangover from this, simply because Taylor has never had any input to suggest that there are a lot of people who would prefer to see the actress in full as she blows up.

Or it could well be that those people who have given her input, really do like the close ups, and like to hear the actress say 'oh my god' over and over again, and only use the phrase 'I'm blowing up' to describe the inflation rather than those of us who really really like variety. Fetishes are a funny thing, and I'll bet there are plenty of people who have a favoured phrase to describe inflation that they really do prefer just to hear over and over.

Taylormadeclips, started out really good. But all those close up views, which only show stretching fabric is doing my head in.

Normally I would've bought a clip or two, but I stopped as the quality just seem to get worse and worse.

I think the Blueberries suits previews looked great. I'm not exactly a big Blueberry fan, but I keep watching and enjoying those images. And of course congrats to SqueakLatex who made the suits, and VmanMagic for inspiring the use of said suits.

A little off topic here, but I think Vman's project is officially in the toilet as it was announced over at InflateChan.

True, but even cancelled projects may inspire other people for new ones.

To be honest, I don't think the blueberry clips are worth buying. I did get them my self, in hope of seing some good inflation, but I was wrong. I'm also into BE and hourglass inflation. Again, I must say the quality seem to get worse and worse. X-spander seemed really promising for the first clips, but now it seems to more quantity over quality.

The truth is that Taylormadeclips are still an amatuer studio, technically speaking.  They don't have the budget or time to make the professional quality clips we all wish they were.  Also, they've been a multi-fetish site since well before they got into body inflation.  So when they book a model, they're paying her hundreds of dollars (for some models probably into the thousands) for just a few hours of shooting time.  That includes the time she's sitting there between shoots while they switch out props and costumes.  So they want to get as much shooting done as possible for as many different clips; meaning they don't have time to do costume changes, multiple props, etc., for any one particular clip.

The extreme closeups are because off the rack clothing is designed not to rip or tear easily.  The average air compressor does not put out anywhere near the pressure to tear clothing.  So the closeups are there so that someone can grab the clothing by hand off-camera and tear it apart.  I've heard tell of a trick where you saw at the threads holding buttons on to weaken them, but I don't know if it works, I mentioned it to Taylor ages ago...  *shrug*

And the acting is up to the models.  To my knowledge TMC usually doesn't go into shooting a clip with an exact script.  Again: time constraints, they don't have time for a model to memorize all her lines for one clip.  So I imagine they just give the model some pointers and key phrases and let her improvise.  That's why Holly and Mika and the other girls who can act are kinda TMC celebrities, because they're good at improvising.  Most models... obviously not so much.

Not trying to "white knight" too hard, but come on.  How many other studios are putting out body inflation content at all?  Beggars can't be choosers here.  Also, as has been pointed out:  everything TMC knows about our fetish is from what people tell them.  If you have ideas for improving their clips, keeping in mind their budget and reality, tell them.  Go to their forums and post, or PM Taylor or Bud.  They've always been really nice and open; and they want to make money, and better clips = more money.

...I meant that sarcastically.
