HD quality
I'd go with "broadcast quality." Something may be hi-def, but still be of poor quality.Bondage that is actually effective
Bondage that APPEARS effective. It can appear effective, without actually being so. Gags that are actually effective
Again, gags that APPEAR effective. Cleave gags appear effective on TV and in the movies, mostly through the efforts of the actor, but the reality, is that they can be pushed out with the tongue.Little to no acting on the submissive's part
No. To make the scene credible, the actor has to move and "mmmppfff" in his gag. He/she can't just lay there like a lump.A nice, casual, fun atmosphere
Well, that would depend on what the bondage is all about. If it's a couple of people having fun, fine. but a "casual, fun atmosphere" does not seem to lend itself well to a scene where the "victim" has been captured or kidnapped.A VERY attractive girl/guy (I'm sorry if that's superficial, but I have urges, so sue me)
The term "attractive" is a bit "iffy." I think I would prefer the term "photogenic." Yeah, that's a bit "nit-picky," but who wants an ugly victim?
Leggings/form-fitting clothes
Again, it depends on the situation. Clothing appropriate to the venue would be better. If you are filming a western-themed "adventure," you don't want your actor wearing a soccer uniform, or vice versa.HOGTIES
Infrequent on TV or in the movies; more common with home videos. I can think of dozens of scenes from movies and TV, where I thought it would have been 1000% better if the 'victim' had been hog tied.The original post was not clear about whether he was thinking about home videos, or movies/TV. You have to remember, that some of us are old and senile, and need things explained clearly.
