I've heard about a model called LongCat that can do videos up to 4min. Have you tried it?
Hey, there, no I had not heard of that one. I'll do some research on it, thanks for the heads up! And, you're pretty much right, for the most part, depending on the size of the video frame, from 5-8 seconds per clip is the advertised default lengths for most models, unless you have a great graphics card!. But that got me curious about average length of cuts in scenes of a JAV title vs normal content like a TV show or movie.
Did a quick Google search: "in a modern TV show, what is the average length in seconds is each cut scene?"
AI Overview: In modern TV shows, the average duration of a single visual cut (or shot) is approximately
2.5 seconds.
The "Cut" (Shot Length): Popularized by streaming platforms like Netflix, the rapid editing pace of modern shows features a new shot every
2.5 seconds to keep the audience's brain engaged and maintain story momentum.
2.5 seconds, wow! It's so normal that I never even realized that. Out of curiosity I used FFMPEG to count the number of cut scenes in my trailer to see if it was accurate. It was! Counted 32, that's how many shots I had including title cards. So now to run that against just one (sex) scene from a random full-length JAV. I'll post what I find, this is interesting to me.
EDIT: Finished already!
I used the second scene from the recent
ALDN-593 My Sister-in-law (lol) Or Rather, She's All Mine During The Day Lol Honma Yuri.
The scene is approximately 34min in length. Using the script I used on my trailer this thing brought back 24 cut scenes. In a 34min full scene that's a whopping average 1.41 minutes per cut! That's like 84 second cuts! But that goes to show...sexy women in sexual scenes are not meant to be watched in quick cuts on Netflix haha! Guess it's best I stick to creating trailers of this stuff if anything!
EDIT 2: Had a thought this morning
This morning I had the idea of trying the same thing on an IV title, surely Image Video directors have a very different cutting style than a feature director. The results were as expected (pretty much).
I tried the same process on the recent
MMR-AA377 Dream Of A Glimpse/Shimizu Renka
I analyzed the first scene which was approximately 14min long. This came back as having 42 cut scenes, which still is about an average of 20 seconds per cut scene? Is my math right?
