When you talk about GIS1OO videos, a smile come to me... just put next elements together:

- Both smokingsweeties and GIS1OO are filmed in Barcelona -

I let you to bet if the camera man of GIS1OO and the camera man of SmokingSweeties is the same person, I let you bet about the mistery of who filmed those GIS1OO vids in the late 90s and why suddenly it stopped.

=======================================================

I totally aprove your analysis, and I just can tell that you are abosloutely right. The last month clips were top sellers, it was something incredible, and maybe the period when I got more feedback than ever. It is translated in the downloads. So I see that my goal as producer is to film killer stuff.

The thing is that you never know what you gonna get when you turn on the lights and the camera with a model who has been waiting for hours to smoke a cigarette. You never know!!!

I will tell you the story of a couple of our clips:

TOP SELLER #1: Ajda: smoking model interview.
----------------------------------------------
THIS CLIP HAS A PERCENTAGE OF THE WEBSITE OVERALL SALES OF 3.12%

We planned to record the video of the two sisters eating and smoking, a request that a customer send us. Masha is vegetarian and she had to go to the supermarket to buy some salad as I was setting up the equipment. Her sister Ajda was on the toilet doing the make up... and she was craving so bad for a cigarette... she asked me to share a cigarette, 'just half please...' I ran with my camera to the toilet and I let her to chain smoke two cigarettes.

To give the video a sense my videoeditor needed more stuff, the video was really simple as it was, so I asked Ajda to use the audition I made her to combine the 'toilet scene' with the audition.

A simple scene... (a stupid scene on my opinion) that means the 3.12% of the overall sales of the website!!!!! No complex scripts, no strong lights, no perfect make up..

SALES RANKING 70 OF 149: Streetlife 1 - Y0ung Belgian smoking girls.
----------------------------------------------
THIS CLIP HAS A PERCENTAGE OF THE WEBSITE OVERALL SALES OF 0.48%

After an evening walking the historic center of Barcelona with a fellow who helped me with the camera, I was really exhausted (The same feeling than when I was a GIS1OO boy!!!, I can taste a known feeling, but girls don't feel so comfortable as 10 years when girls were not relating a videocamera with the internet). On just one afternoon we recorded 5 clips, all the streelife series on smokingsweeties were recorded the same evening, but released separately.

Arriving to our studio we stop on a tipical bar to eat a hot plate and drink a fresh beer. There were those Belgian girls there, I was so exhausted that I never thought to film them, even when they were eating and smoking! We were reviewing the recorded stuff as we eat a sandwitch. Those girls were interested in our actions, as I notified by their body language (feets and knees pointing to us... etc)... so we said, why no? a last shoot.

Man!!! when I captured the full tape and I saw those belgian girls!!!! I understand why you got hooked to that video! Mee tooooo!!! I don't get mentally turned on by my own stuff... but now the producer will mention his two favourites:

Ingeborg: Dangling and smoking in the bathroom
- sales ranking 124 of 149 videos
- it means the 0.28% (in benefit) of the overall site

and SALES RANKING 70 OF 149: Streetlife 1 - Y0ung Belgian smoking girls

YES those are my favourites!!!!!!!!

It looks like many people love my videos!!! but I love the videos that nobody likes! So... how can I know what people like? Just for the sales? How can I plan it.... You'll never know what you gonna get... specially talking about your favourite scene (and mine) of the belgian girls, and also the example of Ajda Chain smoking model. Is stupid! Those two videos are random videos!

It sounds strange to me that story about the first video that you downloaded from my website... Is my favourite together with Ingeborg on the toilet.... Not top seller clips!

So... what we've learn of this?

Can you give me the tesis of why this video is good and why the 'Y0ung belgian smokers
