Okay, I'm a little scared.

Why do so many "glamour" shots seem to be out of focus? Makes me a little crazy.







Great. Now I'm crazy and scared.

There ain't a camera in the world that would make me look glamourous. I would need so much plaster to fill in the cracks, and try and picture this 80 lb skinny woman in a negligee. Mine would be the most ridiculous looking you ever saw. I know my limitations.

In Hollywood, it was a practice once upon a time to put Vaseline on the camera lens to soften the image (older women). Now, cameras can do it for them. If you ever see something on your TV that is a little soft, it's not your TV. Look at the age of the people and then know they applied the technique.

It's suppose to make wrinkles and imperfections smoother.

WHAT. the. hell.

You really can't judge a book by its cover.

80 lbs? Somebody give that woman a cheeseburger!

I don't think that would be enough "softening" for a picture of me-might have to soak the camera in lard!

Then don't watch the last couple seasons of Murder, She Wrote. They couldn't keep a camera focused on Angela Lansbury to save somebody's life.

Perfect example.

Billy Wilder filmed Gary Cooper through cheesecloth draped over the camera when he shot Love In the Afternoon opposite Audrey Hepburn. His character was definitely an older man in comparison to Hepburn's gamine, but the age differential and Cooper's time baking in the sun added extra years to him that Wilder didn't want. The cheesecloth softened Cooper just enough for viewers to believe that Hepburn would be attracted to him.
