It's harder to shoot porn today than it was back in the old days.

It's harder because producers never needed access to all the things you now need as essential. the prices for content have dropped to the point where if a producer isn't working up to 3 times a week he's losing money. I could shoot one day a week and make good money.Actually no, I'm not agreeing with you.
Paul Markham's original post says it's harder to shoot porn now. In your post located here you complain about super high-end production requirements as the only way to produce content.
I would argue that today it is easier than ever. Nudity and Porn is alot more acceptable than it was only a few years ago. The cost of good hardware has dropped like crazy. You can shoot high resolution photos and videos for a tenth of the cost as it was in 2008. You have all kinds of powerful editing tools at your fingertips now. Even better, you have instant distribution, instant access to marketing, instant ability to charge your customers for the content.Comment

Hi Paul...It's harder because producers never needed access to all the things you now need as essential. the prices for content have dropped to the point where if a producer isn't working up to 3 times a week he's losing money. I could shoot one day a week and make good money.
You're right, but let's clarify. I am talking about the ability to SHOOT porn, as was a part of your OP.
NotInMyBackYard:
Question for you. I understand that you are retiring, but why is your grand kid "taking over"? Won't he just shoot his own content, style and niche? And wouldn't you want him do what he wants to anyway?
And yes sir, Whiskey soon.Comment

We tried but most now are just a facebook page. They take 20% but do not do any work,they represent models they have never met and thus could not be relied upon..in the good old days if we needed 12 models for the shoot they even called casting session and there was a choice.... Now hopefully some tattooed whore with plastic boobs and excessive pirecings shows up....we do have some great models from the past and are using them, but as they get older,married with children or just go work in a bank the pool is getting smaller.
...and to boot we only do soft and glamour lesbian....Not much glamour here now days
We now be looking further to the East. It is waste of time in the Czech republic.

Sorry, but if I understood correctly, you talked about how things got bad.
I said that no, didn't become bad, people didn't stop jerking and look for boobs and pussy on the Internet. And they didn't stop paying for it. Now only the format of delivery and monetization of content for adults has changed.
What I didn't understand, please explain?Comment

Maybe the tactics need to totally change. In the age of selfies I imagine most cuter models are satisfied with their mirror images.We tried but most now are just a facebook page.

Also, many are hip to the facial recognition AI problem and the permanence of having the images all over the internet.
Have you tried an "open call"? Maybe rent a nice hotel room downtown and advertise for models that way.
Or maybe recruit camgirls?Comment

We found the thing that put them off was the fact that once it was on the free sites, every one of their friends and family could find out. It put off the new girls who didn't have time to get plastic boobs, piercing, tattoos, etc.We tried but most now are just a facebook page.

The preferred method of porn delivery is via a tube site. That affects peoples ability to shoot for a profit.Sorry, but if I understood correctly, you talked about how things got bad.

I would disagree. It's harder to shoot porn profitably. Whether you're shooting top end or amateur.
Which is very true for top end productions which cost $1,000s to produce.Comment

That is an oxymoron.... Like an actress, she gets paid, so what is this BS "her friends may find out.." If thatbis so, then she should go to work at McDonald's or for higher wages go hooking, but do not be an adult model.Comment

Nice suggestions, but a lot easier is ( or so it seems) to put them on the bus from Kiev...working on that now for our next shoot in May.
