About Promo Pics (Porn)

Why do some episodes' promo pics, show more than what are in the actual videos?

For example, in the Monsters of Cock episode Coral Stone (hottest video on the internet, imho) I've see, what I believe, is the full-length video, but half of the pics at this site http://www.bangbrosnet.com/stone/analgood.html, I never saw a scene like that. Anyone have any ideas?

When a site is being filmed, pictures are also being taken. The video goes to the editing room where portions are cut for one reason or another. They just didn't bother to remove the pictures that were taken during the portion of the video that was removed during the edit.

Stills are usually not taken when the video is being shot. First they shoot most of the video then they "reinact" the scene for stills and last they do the cumshot. This is why sometimes the lightning is completely different for the cumshot compared to the rest of the scene, it was shot maybe an hour later.

Stills are very often taken during filming. You think most of the sites have the budget to film then reenact what they just filmed for pictures? If you watch the videos from sites like Bang Bros, half the time the still photographer is in the scene.

Same way with mainstream movies, too. They'll take tons of stills while shooting, to help create promo shots.

I was mostly thinking about gonzo movies, many directors do it the way i said (some directors, for example Erik Everhard don´t do any stills at all of the scene(at least he didn´t a couple of years ago, i haven´t seen any of his recent movies)). And what do you mean "don´t have the budget", it only takes a couple of minutes to stop shooting video, take some stills and then shoot the cumshot. How much money do they lose that way? Five bucks? I know that there are some directors that shoot stills during the video and i must say that it is the most annoying thing in porn when you can here a camera clicking in the background, and sometimes you even hear the photographer telling the performers to stop because he wants to take a picture.
