[quote="cats"][quote="angel_uk"] I've never actually done video, but have done a sequence of stills with a webcam. It was strange looking back at them, and realizing I wasn't quite where I thought I was in the shot. (mostly I'd squirmed out of shot 8-()[/quote]

I don't know if this applies to a webcam but if you have a video camera try connecting to a television so you can see if you are in view. Assuming you're not blindfolded of course.[/quote]

I was 8-)

Oooo!~  It is appealing to watch yourself *at least once* - when in the right frame of mind!  I think GaggedUtopia expressed it best - Your (yut-ful brain * what is a "Yut"  ) Does help set up the scenario - And yes that's probably most my SB mummy wraps - I leave my eyes uncovered - to view the sneaky way the tightened cocoon has made me look more mega-bod!!!   But ALLLL-SO!!!  *Thanks to Gagged Utopia's plastic wrap-in-the-door technique, I enjoy seeing  as I turn around - the material seems to wind me up in the mirror, like being fed from a mechanical source...and since the mirror is a limited view - it gets me revved - to think of it as being miles and miles of it - without end,,,,the same thing happens when I'm being sealed up in giant sheets!!!  The whiteness continues to spool... my mummybound body turns on the bed as my mouth is gagged as well in the huge roll of linen smoothing and squeezing me into a straight column - I make a final turn and glare into the reflection with eyes that seem to have been enchanted in a mummification spell - Then fantasies exchange...I may try a video session soon  I had done one a LOOOOooooNnnnGG time ago with a cute honey!  But that's the fish story here!  Almost forgot to erase it when her dad had to borrow the camera back!

I know this is a very old thread but I'm new to the Forum and felt the need to add a response. I absolutely LOVE watching myself in bondage. It's a major part of the game for me and has been since childhood. With mirrors I get to be both top and bottom. Because I'm so enthralled with watching myself squirm, I've been good to myself with plenty of exercise and good eating habits. I don't want to watch a pudgy out-of shape captive.

Recently I purchased a Nikon digital SLR camera. It takes great photos and videos so now I can make my own porn. Highly recommended for any other self-voyeurs.

OMG! Every since I discovered large mirrors as a teenager I love watching myself struggle in tight bondage. That was 30+ years ago. And since I bought a small movie camera a few years ago I have filmed myself dozens of times and when the mood strikes I watch myself in replay. When I do I often think how I could improve my videos. I have had early films destroyed in hard drive crashes. So now I always make backups. Plus the longer it takes to make a film, usually 2 to 6 hours without climax, the bigger and stronger my orgasm explodes.

Wow, 2 - 6 hours to make a video sounds intense (but fun). Most of mine are around an hour. I've tried to get fancy a few times, moving the camera to allow different views of the same pose, then editing when finished. Lots to learn but homemade porn is a kick and I have fun even when it doesn't work out. I haven't saved many of my productions so far. Once I make it and watch it a few times I lose interest and am ready to start another.

The camera is only an occasional prop because it changes the tone of the session, making it all about getting the best shot, getting the light right, making sure everything looks as good as possible. For most sessions I just wanna get myself tied up and drift in sub space, and that's when I like using mirrors.

As a musician I've found the filmed adventures are like making a recording while the mirrors are like a live performance.

I like to tape gag myself and look at it in the mirror. I like the visual along with the feeling of the tape on my mouth.

I've set up a camera that is connected to a television so that I could watch myself. My Pantyhose Adventures (that's what I call my bondage escapades) usually last far too long to actually record. Other times when I want more in the way of sensory depravation, I use a nylon hood or put a stocking over my head so I can't see any way.

Never thought about filming myself before but after reading this thread I thought I'd give it a shot, and it was great downside was I really need to lose the gut I've developed!

Yep, nothing shows off those physical flaws like a naked video. Looking good for the camera or mirrors is what keeps me doing my workouts.

I started recording myself after reading this thread a while ago. It's a huge turn on!

I love watching myself doing the prep work, and then struggling (or not because I know it's pointless to try :twisted: ). It even gives me ideas for improving future sessions.

It's not always pretty though. Especially when using a gag (there's drool everywhere!) or blindfold (you move out of the frame without realising it).

Here's a tip: get a cheap AC adapter for your camcorder/DSLR. Couple it with a large memory card and you can keep recording for hours!

want to make it interesting.put you camera on a tripod outside looking in your window and record it like a second person might.
then when you look at it you can imagine it is a dvd someone sent to you saying,"i saw what you did last night"

That's an idea. But what if someone steals your camera+tripod? You wouldn't be able to do anything about it :o

I used to find this creepy but the more i do it (and the healthier I look unsurprisingly) the more I enjoy it.

Currently fairly thin, and happy with my body so the whole thought of being able to watch myself kind of turns me on.

Used to not like getting naked either, which probably fueled a love for clothing bondage. <3

That said. I have a tail I lock on me every once in a while and I just love tugging at it in the mirror while it's on a timer to be unlocked! <3

It'd feel vain but when in self bondage I have this mind shift to where my body is an object and my mind treats it as such. Almost like you're some place else but you're stuck. Kind of relaxing. watching it in the mirror kind of makes it better.

The first time I dressed up was the first time I took a photo (Polaroid), and have been doing that ever since, must say I find it a bit weird looking at my own photo,
I have started to video my bondage and take screen shots but the quality is not that good so I have decided to post my vids on,

the first one is crap as I totally missed my head and feet, but as I review my other stuff I find actually turns me one, and to post my photos and vids is an even bigger turn on.

While I don't make videos and photos, I like seeing myself in cuffs and irons; either thanks to a mirror, or merely by looking at myself.
