DeoVRs revolutionary AR video feature has introduced the alpha channel, opening up new possibilities for adult content creators. This powerful tool allows creators to transform their homemade greenscreen footage into alpha passthrough videos that they can share with the growing VR/AR porn community.

Creators are already taking advantage of this feature like South East Asia-based ARsians who recently launched a studio and began sharing its passthrough videos. A small team of 3 created ARsians out of a small room with little more than a homemade greenscreen studio and an insta360 Evo camera.

With the help of DeoVR’s alpha channel, it was able to turn its content into alpha passthrough movies, ultimately leading it to partner with some of the major VR porn aggregators and share its videos with the community.

As this shows, this feature isn’t limited to big production studios. Just about anybody handy with a camera and some video editing software has the opportunity to set up a basic greenscreen studio and produce their content.

The new feature truly levels the playing field, making it easier for creators to dive into the world of passthrough porn video production.

How does the alpha channel benefit creators?

DeoVR’s alpha channel feature converts greenscreen footage into an alpha channel and removes the background in real-time.

It converts it to alpha to improve the overall quality of passthrough videos. Fine details like hair, which are often lost in traditional greenscreen techniques, remain visible in the alpha channel. This allows creators to produce more lifelike and polished footage, as subtle textures and edges around the model remain intact.

Additionally, the alpha channel feature simplifies the production process by eliminating the need for complex settings or adjustments during preview.

Creators can focus on capturing and editing content without worrying about constant tweaks to maintain the chroma key effect. This ease of use opens the door for newcomers looking to produce content who may not have experience in advanced video editing.

How to make passthrough VR porn and upload it to DeoVR?

Assuming you already have some models and a compatible camera and lens, you will need a backdrop, lighting, and video editing software.

The background can be either green or blue but must be matte to avoid unwanted reflections. Make sure it’s large enough to cover the whole area in the shot. You can buy these backdrops fairly cheaply from many online retailers.

Next, you will need lighting. The key to shooting passthrough is to use a lot of lighting for both the models and the backdrop. Insufficient lighting creates shadows making the editing process much more difficult.

Finally, you’ll need to edit your content in your video editing software. DeoVR has posted a helpful video tutorial on how to do this.

Once you’re finished, the last step is to add _ALPHA into the file name before uploading it to DeoVR, or you can tell the uploader to switch the “Has Alpha” option ON.

Done! Now, the DeoVR player will play the video with perfect passthrough.
