Last Laugh Teiwaz 2: Amie’s feet locked in stocks and licked by Mandie (F/F)

[The Last Laugh]

Hello everyone! Here is a preview for Last Laugh Teiwaz 2, starring Amie and Mandie:

Amie: 18, 5’9”, size 8
Mandie: 18, 5’6”, size 7.5

“We came pretty close to missing out on Amie’s full potential as a ticklee. The conversation we had before meeting for the shoot suggested that she wasn’t ticklish on her feet. So the plan was that she would only get tickled on her upper body while Mandie would be the only foot ticklee. And sure enough, we got no results when we tested her feet with fingers and various tools. We tried tongue tickling more or less as an afterthought, if only because Mandie was totally comfortable with it. Well, the moment her tongue got in between Amie’s toes we were delighted to discover that it worked very well. It’s like the oral tickling unlocked her potential. As the shoot progressed we observed that Amie gradually became receptive to other methods (namely fingers), and not just on the toes. But licking and sucking Amie’s toes remained Mandie’s main technique.

So anyway, in this second scene it’s Amie who’s locked in the stocks. Mandie peels off Amie’s colorful striped socks and puts her eager tongue to work. A short while later Amie’s big toes are tied back to make it easier for Mandie to stick her tongue in Amie’s worst spots without getting kicked in the face or getting a toe shoved up her nose. Fingers are also used from time to time. As was done to her in the first scene, Mandie plays mind games with Amie, trying to make her say things she normally wouldn’t. She manages fairly easily to make her say that she loves being tickled, but she fails to make her beg for more (“I can’t! I can’t!”, whimpers Amie). Of course, Mandie doesn’t need Amie’s cue to prolong her torture. Besides, as bad as it is for Amie, when asked how it was at the end of the scene she answers, somewhat out of breath: “That was fun. Oh man, it was awesome!” Mandie agrees, saying that she also had a lot of fun and that they should do this more often. Amie adds that she loves the little toe cuffs that were used to pull back her big toes. They really are very useful and effective.”

[The Last Laugh]

If I may reply to my own post I'd like to talk about a couple of issues.

First, as some of you may know, I used to have a DeviantArt account. It wasn't much, basically just a collection of sample pictures from all of my videos. They can all be found on my personal website, but I figured some people might find it convenient to get them all from a DeviantArt gallery. Not to mention that I posted somewhat larger versions of the more recent pictures.

Anyway, I decided to close my account. One of the main reasons is that DeviantArt recently banned me for spamming, without any warning. They didn't explain it at first, but after I asked them for more feedback I found out that the problem was mainly the fact that I included links to my Clips4Sale.com store, which they don't allow. Apparently they get a lot of complaints about that site, and they're not too fond of people using DA to advertise their products in general. Fair enough. I do wish they would have contacted me about this before banning me, though.

Anyway, after I wrote them they did offer to unban me if I agreed to remove the links. That wouldn't have been a problem, but I have to admit that I was a bit put off by the experience, and my DeviantArt account was never all that useful anyway, so I decided to get rid of it altogether. I'm afraid that people who added some of my pictures to their Favorites will notice that they're gone now. Very sorry about that. Still, I am grateful to all those who supported me by "favoriting" my pictures, subscribing to my account and/or posting comments.

On a different topic, some of you may have read some of my posts in which I mentioned that I may not be producing and releasing new videos for that much longer. Or maybe we talked about it through private conversations. Well, it is true that after 10 years of doing this, the end is getting closer. I don't know how many more shoots I'm going to do, or how much longer I'll keep my store open after I've released all of my material. But I don't expect it will be much more than two more years, if even that. It's hard to tell. I do, however, still have enough material in reserve for at least a dozen more series. So even if I stopped doing shoots right now I'd still be able to release new stuff for quite a while.

Anyway, there are many reasons why I intend to close shop in a not-too-distant future. Like I said, I've been doing this for the last 10 years, and I'm kinda looking forward to moving on to something else and freeing more time for my hobbies. Besides, I'm 39 now, and it's getting to the point where I'm starting to feel a little weird doing fetish shoots with models that are often half my age. Also, the market has evolved a lot over the last few years, becoming much more competitive, and The Last Laugh isn't doing as well as it used to. I mean, I've always been a minor producer, but I used to have more commercial success nonetheless. Now most of my recent series barely cover their production costs, if even that. Quite frankly, if it weren't for my substantial back catalog, The Last Laugh would have stopped being viable a long time ago. Even with sales of older material I'm getting closer to a point where producing new material won't be worth the effort anymore.

That being said, what I really wanted to talk about is another reason why I don't think I'll be doing this for that much longer, something that has been bugging my more than usual in recent times. It's about model recruitment. It's never been easy for me to find and hire interested and qualified models. It goes without saying that being restrained and tickled on camera and having one's footage sold to a fetish clientele isn't for everyone. And models aren't always very reliable. Not to mention that when models do show up for a shoot they're not always ticklish enough. So recruiting models is often a tedious, frustrating process.

Despite the difficulties I've been managing ok enough for many years. But for some reason I seem to be having even less success than usual these days. I barely find any candidates now, and most of those who express their interest eventually drop out, often without apparent reason. I don't know why I'm having so much trouble. This has become enough of a problem that even if it weren't for the other reasons I mentioned earlier I might put an end to my efforts just because finding models has because so much of a chore. Not quite futile, but close.

To be fair, though, I've never put that much effort into finding models. That is, I never used explored that many sources of potential models. A long time ago I mostly posted ads on campus, plus the occasional newspaper ad. Then I joined a small model-photographer club, which helped me find a few interested models. But for the last several years I've mostly used a modeling site. Not an optimal option, as it goes without saying that most models don't become members to do fetish video shoots. And sites like Craigslist yield almost no results.

It doesn't help that I'm not part of the local fetish community and have virtually no useful contacts. And I have to assume there are other methods a producer can use for finding models that I haven't considered, or would prefer to avoid for whatever reasons. I'm definitely not doing everything I could to find models. But then, I don't do this for a living, and I have a full-time job that uses up a lot of my time and energy, so going out of my way to find new models isn't a big priority for me.

Still, I do wish I had an easier time with it. I wonder if there are reasonably simple methods I could use to increase my chances of recruitment success. I mean, I do live in Montreal, a fairly large and open-minded city. There must be a lot of decent candidates out there that I could potentially work with if I only knew how to reach them, ideally without making a fool of myself in the process.

 

[Comfort Eagle]

Well that's a downer. Try contacting Tommy from Tickle Abuse and seeing how he operates? I'm not sure how New York differs from Montreal in regards to the whole "alternative" modeling scene, but if it's a big city, I'm sure he could give you some pointers on attracting a bigger group of women without coming across as a creeper wanting to molest them.

 

[Destrucity]

I can completely relate to everything that's frustrating you and I've only been at it for 11 months now. Hope you don't have to shut down though, Last Laugh was always one of the greats..

Hehe! Well, I hope I don’t seem like too much of a creep when I contact potential candidates. At least I don’t often get that kind of vibe from them. Though I’m pretty sure some of them must find the idea distasteful or think I’m hiding something more sinister. Still, I like to think that the messages I send them are informative, transparent and professional enough that most of the candidates don’t automatically dismiss me as a lunatic or a pervert. Then again, a rather large percentage of them never even bother to reply, so who knows?

In any case, I’m not sure I’m comfortable asking Tommy for help. I’m sure he’s put a lot of thought and work on building up his business from scratch, without much direct help form other producers. I wouldn’t want to impose on him to share his experience when I can’t offer anything in return.

Besides, I get the feeling that our respective situations are different enough that I couldn’t use many of the tips he could give me about recruiting models. The Last Laugh is only a small sideline for me, something that I don’t take all that seriously, whereas I’m assuming that Tickle Abuse is Tommy’s main source of income and that he dedicates a lot more of his time to it. That means we have different priorities. What works for him might not work for me. While I’m not ashamed of making tickling fetish videos, it’s not something I openly advertise to the world. When people ask me what I do for a living, I don’t answer that I make fetish videos, and I certainly don’t mention The Last Laugh in my resume. If TA is actually Tommy’s job, I expect he puts a fair deal of effort into making sure people know about it. I don’t have quite the same level of freedom. That limits me when it comes to reaching out to potential candidates.

There's also the fact that Tommy has access to a lot more resources/contacts/etc. than I do. Among other things, I’m pretty sure he can afford to pay his models a fair deal more than I can (though I may be wrong). What I pay the models isn’t bad, but I realize it’s not very impressive compared to what some other fetish producers can afford. It goes without saying that money is the main motivator for most of the models (which doesn't mean they can't also enjoy the experience), and offering higher salaries increases the chances of hiring models. Unfortunately, as I mentioned earlier, most of my more recent series barely cover their productions costs, so it’s very hard for me to justify paying the models more than I already do. I might be able to pull it off if I was always able to work with models I know were going to be very popular, both for their looks and level of ticklishness. But I’m afraid I can’t be as selective as Tommy can. Otherwise I’d barely ever do any shoots, and The Last Laugh would probably have died a long time ago for lack of new material.

I'd like to point out that I'm not in any way suggesting that Tommy has an easier time hiring models just because he pays them better. It's quite obvious that Tickle Abuse's success has a lot to do with his charm, business sense and professionalism. I'm sure he's a lot better than me at approaching people and making them as comfortable as possible with the ideas of appearing in his productions. He's got a lot more experience with it too, despite the fact that The Last Laugh is a few years older than Tickle Abuse. After all, I'm not nearly as prolific as he is. So it's not surprising that things are going so well for him.

I can completely relate to everything that's frustrating you and I've only been at it for 11 months now. Hope you don't have to shut down though, Last Laugh was always one of the greats..

While I'm sorry you’ve had to experience the frustrations of running a tickling video business, I must admit that I find it comforting to hear from someone who understand that it’s not always all fun and games.

I don’t know if the increasing pressures of competition and my troubles with finding new models will be what leads to me closing down The Last Laugh. It might never get to that point. But the fact is that, after all this time, I really do look forward to putting it all behind me and moving on to something else. So even if The Last Laugh remains viable I will eventually pull the plug voluntarily, probably within the next couple of years. Which doesn’t mean that I don’t appreciate your support and that of all the people who enjoy my work.

Nice clip.

 

[SYELLA]

Well I for one love your clips. Always have all threw the years. And like posted from Comfort Eagle perhaps you should consider contacting Tommy. He's a great guy. Also I may be making an assumption but do you try to recruit minorities? As in African Americans? Hispanics, Asians? Even some Mature beauties in the Montreal area.

I'd really rather not bother Tommy about this. I'm not sure how well his advice would apply to my situation, anyway. Besides, it would look a little silly to ask for tips after 10 years of doing this. You'd think I'd know how to do this by now.

Yes, I do try to hire minorities, but I don't seem to have much success with them. I mostly use Model Mayhem to recruit models, so I'm limited to the models who become members of that site. Unfortunately, I don't have much control over who accepts my shoot offers. The vast majority of them, including minorities, either decline my offers or simply don't bother to reply. There's nothing I can do about it.

Wow... that's, uh... that's a pretty intriguing image, I must say.

I understand you would rather not bother him, but time change and things along with it. So maybe one veteran to another he can show you some new tricks he has learned?

 

[skulnbone7]

I Like Amie's size 8 Feet!!!
I Love how Mandie Licks and Nibbles on her Feet and Toes!!!
Amie is Very Sexy, and Mandie is a Hottie! They are a Perfect Pair!!!
I can't say enough about how much I Love Mandie Licking between Amie's Toes!!!

Great clip, thanks for sharing.

 

[Sunday_10pm]

Agree, Amie's feet are beautiful. Are there any more clips of her??

 

[PhilipRJ_UK]

I really love this clip. The chemistry between Amie and Mandie is great, and the tickling action is just really fun! 🙂

 

[AbsolutelyTkld]

Honestly, I feel your struggle. Being one of the only producers in California, it's hard to get models and book shoots, edit and post all of the material on your own with a full time job as well. I find it pretty hard to do all of that and I have been doing it for just over a year now. I commend you on all your hard work. I am still trying to find the motivation to keep going. The west coast has it a little harder than the east coast I think. There is a huge fetish presence on the east coast and west only has more mainstream porn.

Thank you. It's good to get feedback from someone who has a similar situation to mine and understands how it is.

I must admit that I've always assumed California was a good place for finding models. Perhaps I was mistaken. Maybe L.A. is a more favorable city?

I wonder, is a highly developed fetish community that critical for finding models? I guess it depends what types of models you're looking for. The BDSM community is pretty good here in Montreal, but that doesn't seem to make much of a difference. I'm still not very successful in my search. Besides, I don't specifically aim for models with fetish lifestyles. In fact, I much prefer to work with people who have little or no experience with this sort of thing. I've been getting more girls with modeling/fetish experience since I moved to Montreal, but it's not because I target them specifically. You say there's a lot of mainstream porn activities on the West Coast. Doesn't that suggest there are a lot of fairly open-minded people over there, possibly willing to do something as comparatively tame like a tickling video shoot?

Of course, I don't live in California and so I basically have no idea how easy or hard it is to find models. I'm sure it can be challenging. It's just that I thought California was a better source of models than it apparently is. Then again, some people think that I should be able to get all the models I could possibly wish for here in Montreal, and yet...

 

[AbsolutelyTkld]

Well yes. Maybe I haven't been able to tap into that vein yet. I have tried. It's hard to get some straight answers out here. Im still not doing this full-time yet. Afraid to make that leap. Anyway, you should do whatever you feel is best. Who knows. Taking a break for a while and building contacts and such. Then re opening later could be something to think about as well. I wish you the best of luck either way. As a fan and a producer.

 

[The Last Laugh]

Im still not doing this full-time yet. Afraid to make that leap.

That's ok, doing it full-time myself never even crossed my mind.

I don't know anything about your situation, but I don't know if doing this full-time would be a good idea. I mean, a few producers do it and are successful, but it's hardly the norm. As far as I know (though I may be wrong), most producers don't make any profits, or not nearly enough to make a living from it. There's no way I could make a living from selling tickling videos, which would require that I make several times what I'm making right now. But even if I could I would never make The Last Laugh my actual job. It's just not my thing.

Taking a break for a while and building contacts and such. Then re opening later could be something to think about as well

I'm afraid I'm not into it enough to go out and build contacts. I enjoy tickling, but this is just a little sideline for me, and I don't want to invest myself too much in it. After 10 years I'm getting really tired of the whole thing, and I intend to close shop within a year or two at most. If I take a break it will be a permanent one.
