Not to mention any names.....
There used to be a producer who posted here. Several years back this "mystery man" decided to leave the industry and started talking publicly at various colleges and church groups about his "porn" experiences.
This man and I were friends for a number of years before and after he was "reborn". During this time, we've discussed our difference in recruiting and how that may have impacted the different model responses we've each had.
This person would say as little as possible to the model about the actual work that was being done. His attitude was...and I quote: "By the time they arrive for the shoot, they have already spent the money in their minds. They are not likely to leave when they find out that it includes masturbation on video".
To me, this is simply wrong.
Was his approach successful? One could argue that it was as he often had pretty cute college girls to work with. However, according to him, many of those girls later contacted him in tears and begged for the content to be taken down from the Interwebs. It had "ruined their life" etc...
In contrast, I've NEVER had a single model show up on my porch, call, email, or anything else where they were crying or making such claims about the negative impact working with me has caused.
I've had 3 models politely contact me and ask if their content could be taken down. Each one of them acknowledged that they are aware of the release they signed and 2 of them even offered to give compensation. 1 of them paid me back what I had paid her but the content had never been distributed. The other 2 decided to forget about it once I explained that although it could potentially be taken down from the site, the likelihood that it had been copied and redistributed was pretty high.
It's similar to the other thread I started. If you treat models with honestly and respect, you are less likely to have hassles.
