Top 5
1) Fake lees; overreaction or over-actors.
If the 'lee' is not genuinely ticklish, please don't put her on the film.
2) Loose restraints.
The sell of a great tickling video is a model who is deathly ticklish and helpless against escape (i.e., toes curling, cackling laughter etc...). It takes the fun out of the video if the model appears to be able to get away which then makes the video appear fake.
3) Creepy, serial killer, fat, out-of-shape male lers.
I am sorry about this, but the last thing I want to see in my video is some overweight, hairy slob with his guts hanging from the bottom of his shirt torturing a beautiful model. We fetishist of the tickling art understand that the films are role play and the models are in on the joke. However, when you throw a fat nasty bastard into the mix, it makes the video appear 'too authentic.' Gross! If you're a 'ler' and you're a fat nasty bastard, please stay off the film. Get someone else to do the tickling.
4) Hideous, ugly feet.
This one deserves a *. Ladies, if you've got dinosaur feet that are cracked and peeling, nail polish that needs to be repainted or removed, please, don't shoot the film. Producers, you know better! There's nothing I hate more than a producer selling a video, I go checkout the sample and the lee has a camel toe longer than a barrel of a long rifle. Or her feet are f*cked up. This is unacceptable. Ladies, please, if you've got paws for feet, don't make the film. I don't care how ticklish you are. Sorry.
5) Too much talking
Please, please, please... STFU. If the video is supposed to be 11 minutes long, I don't want to hear bullsh*t for 5 minutes. Nowadays, there's an interview and then an exit interview toward the end. So in reality, you only get between 3-5 minutes of film and some of that involves taking the lee's socks and shoes off. Producers, make your dialogue short and to the point.
That is all.
