I like the videos.

Constructively, though - one thing you can do that will really help improve their quality, even with a cheapo camera, is to make sure she's not backlit. Ideally you want most of the light coming from the sides or in front of her, with just enough light reflected behind her that you don't get big ugly shadows. Bright light coming from *behind* her makes her look darker by comparison, and also makes the camera have a harder time adjusting its light level properly, which could be what causes some of the wavering and unfocusedness you're getting. You're doing the right thing in making sure there is plenty of light, but you want it shining on the subject, not straight into the camera. If your only option for some reason is to record in front of a window, do it on a cloudy day, or late in the afternoon... some time when it's not all that bright outside. That'll give much more even lighting, which will let the camera do its thing better and let us see Janey better!

My goodness! Janey is so amazing. Thank you for the pleasure of viewing. You are so realistic, truly a mannequin.

[smitty]

Well done, Janey! More to come, I hope.

.....her hand pose when the soccer ball was removed was mint! I think having somebody that is animate in the foreground always makes a freeze look even more realistic. some very worthy footage guys!

Thanks for the previous answer. One other question. Do you have to go through a lengthy script to hypnotize Janey each time or does she have an implanted trigger that allows you to freeze her almost instantly? In other words, could you in the course of a normal conversation just freeze her in mid-sentence without her knowing that it was coming?

Goldlover, She has been hypnotized and frozen so many times that hypnosis isn't necessary anymore. She freezes on command. Sometimes this occurs during mid sentence. The question always lingers if it has become a permantent post hypnotic command or that she is just doing this to make me happy. Either way I think it's great that she does it. she even self freezes on request without a command given. She can now create her own trance and do self freezes.
