No just a few. It was a Mofos scene.
Not a test scene either. It was to show what we did to earn $3,000 from shooting a set. The set is of that standard and if the girl was new and the business was a few years ago it would show clearly why I wasn't shooting custom solo girl for what online offered.
I know it's not yesterday, however the challenge was, what it would take to get me back to shooting. And I replied the money we used to earn.
Today if I were fit and able to shoot, I'm not sure what I would do. Probably be a wedding photographer/videographer. I'm not fit enough, so no worries.
The scene was a one off. I tried to show how a solo girl scene, IMO, should be constructed. Not the way I see too many are done today. You can see it and ask yourself if you could do 5 of those a day for $1500 to $2500. 3 for $2,000 might be doable with the right shooters and training. These are some of the things I try to cover in my E Book.
There are many other ways to shoot the scene with 2 others on the same day, same girl and to keep it on the same type of theme. There are many ways to construct the day to get out 3 scenes that actually have character, style and a theme. Maybe I need to include this in my E Book. Maybe it's something people would like.
Whether I got the technical side right I'm not sure about. 3 years out of work had an effect on me. Which is the main reason I was doing it. The only way I could view it afterwards was on the camera viewer, couldn't for some reason capture it on my computer. It looked fine. So long as the editor has tied it together properly it will be fine.
Could you do better for $3,000? I'm sure you could do the video better. As no one will pay you $3,000 it's academic. Most are lucky and very happy to get $3,000 for a BG scene today. And that's the problem today. Some think I blame shooters, I don't. I blame sponsors who think shooters should work for less than their worth, for sponsors who don't value the product properly.
Let's wait and see.
Craig, Damian will flame it unless I produced the most sensational piece of porn ever. He doesn't get the point. We didn't have to shoot sensational porn to earn $3,000. If he got that it he couldn't troll. He says I claim to be a great shooter, I never thought that for a minute. The list of porn shooters I admire is long. I don't think I'm great, just good at what we did and made money from it.
The scene is no more and no less than what we would shoot to earn $3,000. OK the video is a bit better. We really weren't that concerned in shooting video. Selling a hardcore BG or GG scene 50 times at $50 = $2,500 and wasn't hard. Solo girl videos were around 25 sales at $35 $875. Unless the girl was ugly. Could we earn more shooting a more involved video? Who knows.
Still there was a set on top and they did much nicer thank you.
