NSFW, because porn:
Allison P. Davis raves about Drone Boning, above:
A commentary on civil-liberties issues and surveillance in modern society? No, says one of the filmmakers, the agenda of Drone Boning (poetry) was simpler: “The plan was to take beautiful landscapes and just put people fucking in them.”
Mission accomplished, sir. The groundbreaking video features straight, gay, and lesbian couples having sex alfresco on the beach, in the mountains, nestled in the mossy bed of a regal forest, amid the blossoming crops of an apple farm, and on the side of a highway against a vintage-looking royal-blue car. It’s like if a Google Maps camera caught you humping unawares amidst a Kinfolk photo shoot. Or perhaps the uncensored, unrated cut of Planet Earth. Simply stunning.
Jason Koebler agrees that the film “skews way more artsy and thought provoking than your average entrant into the genre”:
“We wanted to see the artistic value of this perspective,” John Carlucci, [filmmaker Brandon]LaGanke’s partner, said. “It’s an omniscient point of view, really. We did these shots in places where you couldn’t see much from the ground, but then you put a drone in the air and you can see what’s happening.”
So, even though the two used hired actors in mostly isolated places outside of San Francisco, there’s a certain amount of voyeurism that goes into actually watching the video. Carlucci calls it a “Where’s Waldo” sort of thing: You see these amazing, beautiful landscapes, and you quickly want to see where, exactly, people are getting it on.
