Boy girl can be shot for $400. Using female models who can't find work, a mate to do the stud work and shooting it yourself. It is possible. The question over how much you sell it for has little to nothing to do with the price you sell it for.

You can shoot a scene that costs $40 and is worth $4,000, and yes I have done it, and you can shoot a scene costing $4,000 that is worth $40. Not done the last one but got close to it once.

The factor that determines the sale price is the value of the end product and not what it costs to produce. Every week I get someone trying to sell me boy girl videos for what ever price I will pay. They send me samples and bother me all the time. The last one was awful. It was not "Amateur" it was crap. Sorry if that sounds arrogant, but it's true.

I will buy all the decent boy girl movies anyone can shoot for $400. I can sell them all the time for 1,000 Euros to the DVD companies plus leave myself with Internet rights. Problem is no one who can shoot decent content will sell it for $400 or even $1,000.
