Viv Thomas Video

Review by Duke

Released Jun 19, '10 , Written Jun 10, '10

Intro

Viv Thomas Video is the counterpart to this photographer/producers other site Viv Thomas. As the titles clearly imply that site is more dedicated to photos while this one with 'video' in the title is more focused on his movies. In actuality though both have pretty well balanced collection and here you'll find a lot of photo galleries along with the vids. Viv is very well accomplished in the business and his content features professionally produced galleries/scenes with solo model, lesbian, and boy/girl action. Visitors can get a good feel for his style and the site set-up since much of the tour mirrors what's in the member's area. For instance the model index and photo/video browsing is the same on both sides. Spend a few minutes there and it'll give you a feel for what content he has to offer.

The Pros

Original Collection from Viv Thomas, Years of Archives.

Viv Thomas shoots his own content and this site has video scenes that date back from 2003 up through the present time. The photo galleries have dates back to 2005. Viv is both a photographer and movie producer in that he has shoots that range from solo model stripping/posing all the way to girl/girl and boy/girl hardcore. His material is erotic and sensual more than full-blown dirty hardcore.

Lots of Content; Glamour, Special, & Behind-the-Scene Shoots.

The totals here are what you would expect to see from a photographer that has Viv's experience and it's a well balanced collection in terms of total video scenes and picture galleries. Both top 1,000 which is quite impressive. Along with the expected glamour and hardcore there are sections of special shoots and behind-the-scenes material. That's the kind of stuff that original collections from photographers like this can offer that you don't get from many other sites.

Full-Scene WMV Files & Gallery Zips, Solid Content Quality.

Consistency is what jumps out at me as the main positive here. Videos have three quality levels of WMV donwloads with full-scene files and clip segments. 16:9 widescreen and 4:3 standard formats are offered with all those options. The galleries can be browsed online and are also available as zip files. Quality is solid with videos at 2000k 852x480 and pictures are around 1280x850.

Other Good Stuff:

Consistent updates with a new picture gallery added every other day and a new video added weekly. Content items are date stamped with info showing when they were added to the site.
An alphabetical model index is provided which is a useful navigation tool. Also the photo and video sections are sub-categorized by niche (lesbian, leg, hot babes, etc) and content type (girl/girl, boy/girl, behind-the-scenes, etc) respectively.
A DVD section has Viv's full length DVD movies that can be browsed chronologically, by title, or by rating.

The Cons

Could Use Higher Res Videos & Pictures or Additional Options.

Because this is a site that's a collection from a professional producer that includes glamour style scenes the expectations a bit higher than a standard paysite. The content quality is respectable however there aren't ultra high-res pictures or high-definition videos. Many of his competitors do have these levels available making this collection suffers by comparison. Also, additional video formatting options would be welcome.

No Model Info Provided, Pretty Stale Individual Model Pages.

Viv Thomas's company is based in Europe and the models featured include ladies from all over so it's disappointing that there isn't any information provided about them. Thru the model index the individual pages link to their content items but no additional biographical details are shown.

Minor Negatives:

Some of the oldest videos have only low quality files and the photo clarity/sharpness drops off a bit on older shoots as well.
The model index doesn't have sorting features like hair color, physical characteristics, type of shoots, etc.
The downloadable movie files and gallery zips do not have any file size information posted.

The other

The vast majority of shoots involve solo model or girl/girl hardcore. Boy/girl scenes are clearly in the minority and not the main focus of the collection.

Bottom Line

Viv has a quality collection of videos & photos with an emphasis on solo model & lesbian scenes.

Viv offers a large collection of videos and even though the site is focused on movies there are lots of galleries too. He's established a nice track record in terms of updates and overall it's an impressive archive of original content. For me the next step I'm looking for is for them to ratchet up the content quality to include very high-res options. That's the one area where my expectations weren't met. It would be fitting for this type of material and really add value to the site.
