Just wondering what other people think is the most important part of a wetlook scene, the "getting wet" part, or the "being in wet clothes" part?

Indeed, and it mostly matches what I've always thought, that the "going from dry to wet" bit is the most important. I've occasionally seen promos where it's not obvious that we get to see the actual wetting process - for example a girl walking down steps into a pool but the bottom of the frame cuts off above the point where her outfit is going into the water, or one shot dry and the next fully soaked with no detail in text or sample images of how the actual wetting happened, so was curious if there was a market out there for just "being wet" without worrying too much about the methods. Looks like how we're doing it at the moment, where we always take care to ensure the viewer can see the wetting in detail, does chime with what the majority of viewers want, so we'll keep going as we are.

Thanks to everyone who's voted so far.

Here's a few shots of the lovely Chastity going into our river in a denim jumpsuit as a thank you.

I think it's also about the sense of anticipation and the reaction of the model. It's nice to take it slowly. She wants to go in and she shows that she is enjoying herself, but at the same time she puts off going in, as if she might just stay dry after all. Then looks at her wet clothes as if surprised!

Poll closes tomorrow, though its pretty overwhelming so far.

bit late to the party here, but personally its from getting dry to wet , the slow walk in to lake or pool , the play with water, the colours changing, the clingy material getting wetter, the surprise face as water reaches chest,

Yep, I can see that working quite well in a shoot.


We often have three levels of surprise, if the model's in wellies then there's the reaction as those start to flood and all of a sudden she's wet to her calf, then a second reaction as the water reaches top of legs level - sensitive areas tend to really feel the change - and then again at chest level which is when the cold of the water tends to really kick in. After a few moments they are acclimatised though, and then they can go swimming if it's deep enough. But yes, seeing the change really is part of what makes it for me - I like to have the girls walk down an underwater slope towards the camera, like this one - Chastity's suit really showed the wetness and I had her walk straight towards the camera so we can see every moment as the water rises up her legs and body.
