A review site geared toward the surfer's long-term experience (not just answering the "can I get off?" question) would be, I think, a highly valuable property.
The problem with starting a review site (which is why I myself have not done so - yet) is I haven't figured out how to drive enough traffic to it to make it viable. But i am considering it so perhaps we can talk more in Brno on the subject (and others) if you're still planning on being there. I must go to personally thank Ma Dalton for al his fine advice.  |
Why should I step into a field that even I know I have little chance of making a profit or making any difference, except being honest and telling surfers to save their money and go to the Tube sites and sort out the scenes they want for today. And steer clear of the dating sites, telling them how they work to squeeze money for the unsuspecting?
Why not hire myself out to site owners, who are still shooting, to look into their sites and discuss with them on a one to one basis how to improve, widen the appeal and set their product apart for the 10,000s of other sites?
I put this to Fabian, his response was so many here think I'm clueless. This "so many" is people whose job is to give away porn and attacking me because I attack their job. People who have never shot a scene in their life, never been in a studio, never dealt with model A and model B. So don't know the skills required to make them both bring out the best in them. People who think creating "good" porn can be done for peanuts by anyone with a good HD camera.
If my ideas can't improve sales, sack me. If they do keep me on. I could teach Dean how to improve his porn. So I think I can teach a lot of others. Yes I've seen his porn and see where it can be improved. His framing and posing skills are lacking. His structure of a video is lacking. His photography skills are good and I can't improve them. I don't know much about photography. I know how to make a model work better and how to structure a set and a video.
Few offline porn shooters had a lot of arrogance, they were always sitting down and discussing how to get the best out of a scene.
