Moving this thread back to its original topic, I think the takeaway point is that declaring what you want to see is not going to make it happen. The only way you're going to get what you want is to make it happen. The existing mud video producers are not interested in or willing to do most of what you're wanting to see.
Not what you wanted to hear but let me see if I can help get you started. It will be easier if you have help so I suggest using the various forums to network with others who have similar interests AND who are willing to devote time, money, or other resources to making it happen.
And I have a suggestion when it comes time to finding your models, realize that you will probably have to spend a good deal of time training them to perform in such a manner as for them to be worth even filming. That is what I did and one of the reasons I am short on male/female sex scenes, almost all of my models ultimately flunked Mudfucking 101 so I never filmed them again. All I had left to show for the effort were basically their audition videos meant only to get them used to working on camera. You're going to need to do the same thing in all likelihood and have the same problem. However, if you stick with it, you will eventually get a set of models trained who can get the job done.
Camera work is something of an art, some take to it like a duck to water, some don't. Case in point, I had a good friend who is a skilled train photographer who makes good money selling his photos run a second video camera for me at a mud filming session. Towards the end of the filming session I finally realized what it was that just didn't quite look right off on the other side of the mudpit, my friend kept turning the video camera sideways like a still camera thinking he could "frame" it better that way. His footage was worthless. So, you may be able to learn the ropes with a video camera or you may never be good at it. You may be able to get help on that from some of us on these forums who know how to wrangle a camera or direct a model but it will depend heavily on what you are wanting filmed.
And ultimately, as always, you're going to have to deal with where to get your mud to film in. There are only so many natural mud or quarry locations out there and your odds of there being one in your immediate vicinity are not good. And you cannot get or buy permission to film at most of the really good ones so you need to determine early on whether you want to have to deal with the trespassing aspect as well. Given some of the scenarios some of you are interested in, I would avoid that aspect if possible as it would complicate things if anything goes wrong.
So, I'm basically recommending you use a "backyard" mudpit initially. However, that can be a great advantage for what you're doing as by doing that you may be able to construct it in such a manner as to simplify creating the illusion you want to film. For instance, what about a mechanical lifting/lowering device that has loops for folks to hold on to with their feet or hands so that the sinking looks more realistic? Nothing ruins a sinking video like seeing the model having to artificially pull themselves under the mud, we like those arms up at the surface splattering mud everywhere instead now don't we!
Or maybe you also need to recruit a diver for your crew. That would be the safest way to pull models down. He anchors himself on the bottom and pulls them down and, most importantly, can also assist them back up to the surface. And that brings up the last thing to consider. Most of the scenarios you are envisioning beyond just sex in the mud involve additional risk beyond that incurred when just submerging in the mud. Don't even consider using anything other than clay, forget sand and corn starch, the danger is just too great. And watch out for stray water on your mudpit, keep it all at one consistency, stray water can suddenly rush into a mouth when least expected. Plan ahead for an accident and have meaningful provision for handling it at hand like someone with the specific skills to restore an airway. Make sure you have means at hand to get a submerged model(s) out of all of that heavy mud within well under a minute. And never forget that when dealing with BDSM and/or breath play activities, accidents have a tendency to be viewed as possible manslaughter. Think about that beforehand and let that guide the manner in which you provide for the safety of your models.
Sounds like a lot of work, it is! And perhaps worth keeping in mind to counterbalance the normal tendency to feel frustrated with existing producers when you can't get them to film your personal fantasy. When you're asking them to up the ante into BDSM and/or breath play, you're really asking a lot.
I share that frustration with you and can only wish there were more mud video producers out there doing everything you could pretty much imagine, but then again, that's the downside of being a mud fetishist. Norman Normal type folks have an amazing variety of what they can walk into any porn store and buy. Not so for us. And, not all that long ago, there were exactly zero mud videos for us to buy. Things are better than that now but they are still not what we would have them. And on that note, I'd like to end by saying, we need more mud video producers who produce different stuff than what is produced now, but hey, we also need the mud video producers we have as they've already got part of our needs well covered in mud...
