The Drone Porn Movie Is Becoming a Drone Porn Book (NSFW)

It's like 'Where's Waldo' for adults.

​Remember "Drone Boning," the art porn  ​filmed from the sky by drones that was everywhere last fall? Well, its creators are hoping for an encore in the form of a coffee table book that they hope will become a Where's Waldo? for adults.

Part of the joy of the first video was actually finding the people having sex on screen—in many cases, they were hidden amongst the trees or looked like ants on a beach. The idea with a book, filmmakers Brandon LaGanke and John Carlucci say, would be to spot these trysts from the air.

"We thought, we had so many ideas, our shot list is so large. I've always wanted to do a shoot on a ski slope, we've also got a plan to have one where you can see a tiny boat in the middle of a full frame ocean," LaGanke told me. "We think we can extend this and make it even bigger and more epic and beautiful."

It remains to be seen whether the cat is out of the bag with this one—the original "Drone Boning" was so widely shared not just because it was porn … shot from a drone, but also because it not-so-subtly took on drone privacy issues and, to boot, it was wonderfully artistic. Whether it's going to be as poignant the second time around is an open question, but LaGanke and Carlucci plan to find out.

"We don't want to make it the same trick over and over," Carlucci said. They plan on adding some narrative elements to the book give people perusing the book at dinner parties something to talk about (think: clothing strewn about on a beach, people screwing in a backyard as a party rages next door).

They also plan on packaging the book with a second, longer video. "We're thinking maybe long footage you can play and loop, have an original track composed for it," he said. "I'm not sure what kind of party you'd go to to watch something like that, but I'm sure it exists."

Since originally posting the video back in November, it's gotten more than 7.5 million views and was screened at New York City's Porn Film Festival and at SXSW last week in Austin, where it was well received.

So far, LaGanke and Carlucci don't have funding to make the thing happen, but have gotten interest from a couple publishers. They're also thinking about Kickstarting it, if all else fails. So hey, if you want to bring drone porn to your living room, I know two dudes who could use a few bucks to get the project off the ground.

"It's in the works, we're definitely going to do it," LaGanke said.
