“So just like my Italian ancestor Columbus, I built myself a crew, we boarded the ship and started this adventure in full speed. I believe it is a great addition to our roster of sites.”
According to Romero, the concept of Futanari.xxx is achieved “by ‘transplanting’ the male genitalia to the actress and making it look real.”
He began developing the site two years ago before launching in May.
“The first ‘prototype’ was released a year-and-a-half ago on Hentaied as a test to
see how the audience reacted to it,” Romero adds.
“Having a great idea is one thing, execution is another. That’s where all the
complications and challenges lie. I had to figure out all the technical aspects, find the right team. It took a lot of trial and error to finally arrive at a point where I could keep it running properly. I enjoy the process, as much as the result, if not more.”
Romero says Futanari is in partnership with the Prague, Czech Republic-based Mark Zicha, who is the director and shoots most of the scenes there.
“He is doing a fantastic job so far and I appreciate our collaboration,” Romero adds.
The process for creating a Futanari scene is complicated. It takes 12 to 14 hours to make an 8-to-10 minute video.
“It’s definitely very challenging technically speaking, especially all the shots where there’s ‘transplant’ going on,” Romero explains. “So we need to shoot the actress and the actor separately then take part of her body and part of his and combine them in post production to make them look like one unified person.
“Already there are a lot of issues and difficulties in putting a male and female body together, as visually they’re quite different. Then adding on top the fact that there’s always action going on, so their expression and body movement should look synchronized and harmonious. And that is really hard to achieve as they are shot separately most of the time.
“Plus, the clone scenes where we have a copy of the character interacting with each other, that just brings the complex score to the next level, as all the issues that were mentioned before are multiplied.”
However as long as the scene is shot correctly the editing takes about a day, he says.
“In general it’s much harder to shoot than to edit,” Romero points out. “One of the most difficult parts in editing is to match the skin tones of the male and female body, as usually they’re pretty different.”
Among the top performers who already have appeared on Futanari are Jia Lissa, Talia Mint, Lottie Magne, Rae Lil Black, Marie Berger, Lovita Fate, Valentina Nappi, Sasha Rose, Stacy Cruz and Cherry Kiss.
“Luckily, I have a very good reputation in the industry and a good relationship with all the performers I work with,” Romero says. “They already know me and my work from Hentaied, so there’s a lot of trust established between us.”
“When invited, they all responded with excitement to be part of a new project led by me, and most of them are happy to explore new things that they’ve never tried
