No, when we start a movie, we basically don't know anything what would happen, and which devices amd tools will be used that day. That is why I have a long list what I should have always ready in the studio when we shoot. Candles, clothspins, needles, salt.... etc... we have several whips there so that is not a problem.
So when we know the first scene after the starting iterview we know the body part and the number of strokes, and whether there is any extra. Based on this knowledge, we immediately discuss with the host and sometimes including the dominas that for the given sub what positions were used in the past. We want to avoid repetition. We try to find a good position and a good device as soon as possible so we don't waste too much time. The whip is usually chosen by the dominas. My request is that for breasts and pussy they should try to find a somehow lighter whip especially if the number of strokes is high, as these are delicate body parts more prone to damages. On the back they have free choice. Unfortunately some of the dominas have a hard time to comply with this request of mine.
in future movies would it be possible to take pictures of the whips used in the movie
Theoretically yes, but effectively I am not sure whether we make any more movies than what we already have. For a long time I am dreaming of a break. The older I am the harder I watch these lovely ladies in crying and pain... (not kidding)
