DAMN JFK, you da man son! HOW do you do it?
It's harder to shoot porn today than it was back in the old days.

The mention of equipment got me to thinking about using film.
Before digital I shot almost everything using Kodachrome 64 and I remember when Fuji came out with Velvia 50. Photographers seemed to really like the new Velvia but the few magazines ( non adult ) that I worked with still insisted on Kodachrome.
I was wondering what you used back in the day and if it was always your choice or whether the magazines had some sort of requirement that you had to adhere to.
It would also be intersting to hear how much film you used for one shoot. Did you set a limit on how much film you would use to stay within a budget or just shoot until you got the desired results?
I was at a car show last weekend and got to talking to someone about film vs digital and I told them that back in the day I would come to an event like this with two rolls of 36 exposures and have to make each one a keeper. Now that it's digital I took over 1200 that day and got 350 keepers at no extra cost.

The magazines were drum scanning transparencies and they were set for Kodachrome or Ektachrome. Velvia had to be filtered in many cases.
The amount of film I used depended on the girl. If she was good and teen we used 10 rolls per scene. Then split the sets into plastic pages, one set for UK, one for US, one for Seventeen usually in their T -Shirl for most and then a set for EU or AU. Japan took second rights sets we resorted when the US or UK mag returned a set. It was a small but lucrative market, but didn't need to get in first.
And that was the secret. If you were able to deliver a brand new good girl first to a magazine your had a guaranteed sale. Had shooters moan at me because Eva and I had shot a girl to death and they couldn't sell what they had shot.
On a Readers Wives, Amateur or Mature lady we shot less. Sometime 3 rolls sometimes 6.
On a BG or GG we would shoot up to 15 rolls.
A roll of Kodachrome was $15, by the time we bought it and paged it up. Developing was in the price.
Digital slashed the film bill by a stroke. The cost of the camera was soon made up with the saving in film. Plus all we did was burn discs for duplicate sets. LOLComment

Where did you get your film processed?
Here in the US I used to take my film ( bikini/glamour not HC ) to a local small camera store and they would send it off to Rochester NY for processing. Everything was cool until one day I walked in and the counter guy had all my slides out on a light box looking at them with a loupe.

Kodachrome came with an envelope that you just filled out a return address on, put a stamp on and posted. Of course with larger shoots it all went in one parcel with the envelopes, with your address on. Ektachrome was taken to a processor who was good and discreet. When I came here to Czech I was amazed how relaxed they were about porn. Different world to the UK.Good stuff

Would be nice to get a contract to shoot solo girls scenes for $3,000
But I'm getting too old to be chasing around shooting porn. 60 is a good age to retire from that.
However I have a wealth of knowledge in porn production and a job as a content manager would be nice. I could give loads of shooters the benefit of my experience.Comment

The shoot is booked, model ready, camera ready, location ready, I'm ready. All is great.

If you can email me a master psd, I will put it on the T-shirt I wear for the shoot. So you it will be in the documentary Reggie is shooting. And if you do something for your site on the back. I won't put it on, as it's a gay site and I don't want to give trolls more ammunition.

There are none.
Next week I will be looking for the right model, location and planning the shoot. Fabian understood that as a person who has been out of the game for 2.5 years it was something we couldn't do right over night.
3 years ago it would of taken me a day to organise and depending on the model's availability little time to shoot and deliver. Today it takes longer and my friend who was going to help me has gone quiet. No worries, we will do it on our own and give you time to get here.
For those screaming for me to post the script. Understand a confidentiality agreement. I signed a contract and I stick to it.He already has an old wrinkly ballsac....Why are YOU dragging it even further to the ground? Hop off Paul's nuts.
If THAT got to you, then adios Grandpa....Wont stop me from ripping your scene to shreds if it's garbage...I'll go cry tears of rejection now.Last edited by BVF; 04-16-2011, 05:16 AM.Comment

I can't for the life of me understand wtf reggie durango's angle is.......
Shooting a "documentary" that admitedly most of us would look at for entertainment/cringe/comedy value but I certainly wouldn't pay to watch it, and I doubt many would.
So why is Reggie doing this? How is he going to recoup his flight to Prague, and yak or goat to Markham's home not to mention all the other costs?
Expensive way to make a friend.Comment

Do you think he has markets to sell to that make yours look like a Ma & Pa operation.I can't for the life of me understand wtf reggie durango's angle is.......

Novel thought, money in porn off the Internet, it'll never take off. Let's face it if you can't give it away for free who is ever going to pay for it?
Your post says a lot about you and some others in the online porn business.Comment

Seriously Markham, who wants to pay to watch a video with Reggie's annoying monotone voice narrating your Benny Hill face leering and drooling over some poor little czech model?Do you think he has markets to sell to that make yours look like a Ma & Pa operation.

You didn't answer the question. WHO will pay for Reggie shooting you? The only people I can think of are Manwin who want to at least get some comedy value watching where their $3k went.
Educate me oh know it all.......Who?Comment
