Pornography has long helped drive the adoption of new technology, from
the printing press to the videocassette. Now pornographic movie
studios are staying ahead of the curve by releasing high-definition
DVDs.

They have discovered that the technology is sometimes not so sexy. The
high-definition format is accentuating imperfections in the actors --
from a little extra cellulite on a leg to wrinkles around the eyes.

Hollywood is dealing with similar problems, but they are more
pronounced for pornographers, who rely on close-ups and who, because
of their quick adoption of the new format, are facing the issue more
immediately than mainstream entertainment companies.

Producers are taking steps to hide the imperfections. Some shots are
lit differently, while some actors simply are not shot at certain
angles, or are getting cosmetic surgery, or seeking expert grooming.

"The biggest problem is razor burn," said Stormy Daniels, an actress,
writer and director.

Ms. Daniels is also a skeptic. "I'm not 100 percent sure why anyone
would want to see their porn in HD," she said.

The technology's advocates counter that high definition, by making
things clearer and crisper, lets viewers feel as close to the action
as possible.

"It puts you in the room," said the director known as Robby D., whose
films include "Sexual Freak."

The pornographers' progress with HD may also be somewhat slowed by
Sony, one of the main backers of the Blu-ray high-definition disc
format. Sony said last week that, in keeping with a longstanding
policy, it would not mass-produce pornographic videos on behalf of the
movie makers.

The decision has forced pornographers to use the competing HD-DVD
format or, in some cases, to find companies other than Sony that can
manufacture copies of Blu-ray movies.

The movie makers assert that it is shortsighted of Sony to snub them,
given how pornography helps technologies spread.

"When you're introducing a new format, it would seem like the adult
guys can help," said Steven Hirsch, co-chief executive officer of
Vivid Entertainment Group, a big player in the industry. Mr. Hirsch
added that high definition, regardless of format, "is the future."

Despite the challenges, pornographers -- who distributed some 7,000 new
movies on DVD last year and sold discs worth $3.6 billion in the
United States -- are rapidly moving to high-definition.

One major company, Digital Playground, plans to release its first four
HD-DVD titles this month, and plans four new ones each month. In
March, Vivid plans to release "Debbie Does Dallas ... Again," its
first feature for both HD-DVD and Blu-ray.

Vivid, like Digital Playground, has been shooting with high-definition
cameras for two years to build up a catalog of high-definition movies.
Both studios have released the movies in standard definition but plan
to make the high-definition versions available as compatible disc
players and televisions become more popular.

The studios said their experience using the technology gives them an
advantage in understanding how to cope with the mixed blessing of
hypercrisp images. Their techniques include using postproduction tools
that let them digitally soften the actors' skin tone.

"It takes away the blemishes and the pits and harshness and makes it
look like they have baby skin," said the director known as Joone, who
made "Pirates," one of the industry's top-selling videos. It will be
available this month in high-definition.

Joone does not use a last name, but he does use a number of techniques
to keep his films blemish-free. They include giving out lifestyle
tips.

It must bring confusion when the director says, "Pull out!"

Good one.

Maybe HD will force the jizz biz to start setting minimum standards for females'
appearance in videos.

75% of porn "actresses" today have a face that would get them banned from
radio....
