I am a sex blogger and I personally have watched a couple of documentaries in the UK about webcam girls, one on BBC THREE and one on Channel 5. Both of which were quite light hearted and didn't really show any true character from these girls. Cam Girlz however has really touched me and differed itself from the rest.
Unlike the others, this documentary featured girls from all kinds of background, as well as their appearances, you would see the usual slim pretty girls, but it also gave a voice from the big and beautiful girls, and even mature ladies. It just goes to show that there isn't just one type of girls the guys want to see, each and every variety of girls has an audience for. You can be the best looking girl in the world but if your personality doesn't shine through then no one will want to watch you on cam.
I adored the truth from this documentary it portrayed, that is being a cam girl is not a taboo as the society might deemed as. The girls are totally being themselves online and that is the true pleasure for the viewers. Often when you think that it is the viewers that are in control of a webcam sex show, but it is actually always the girls that are in control, always.
In the space of just over an hour the film featured a total of 38 girls, often going back and forth from one to another explaining how they got into camming and how it has affected their lives comparing to pre-cam. All of the cam girls suggested that it was something they loved to do, not having to work for someone and being creative on camera to please people all over the world.
While the documentary managed to focus the attention on the cam girls, it also shed a light on the guys who pay to watch these girls, and it's not some dark grim life one might expect, these are happy-go-lucky guys who just enjoy the women's company online, instead of having to be a lonely weirdo who hangs around in bars. This really fascinated me when comparing to the other documentaries where you only saw one side of the camera.
I felt that the entire film wanted to show the viewers expressing sexually online in front of a camera is completely normal and should not be frowned upon in this day and age. The cam girls industry can only now grow with the technology, wherever that might take it to, hologram girls? Who knows.
Credit must go to Sean Dunne for directing this film, which he has done a superb job of. Every camera angle was at the right place, with the perfect lighting and sound. It was one of those films that you didn't want it to end so soon.
