Getting into content production

I'm sure you can

yeah - even without smilies - lol

okie dokie there baldie

It feels a lot better to be a nice person. You should try it.

If you have no advice to contribute - why don't you take your paranoid ass out of my thread and we'll all be happy, toots.

I've been asked this many times at seminars over the years and the common answers seem to be that each section of the country is different where girls demand more than others. While some offer 100 to 300 solo others go higher depending on region. Girls are not the problem at all as there are many ways to get them from online sites - other photographers to just going out and looking around. NOTE stay away from strippers LOL. but models are not to reliable so just don't depend on one or two.

Lighting and set design is extremely important for quality along with a good camera and knowing the models best pose. Keep in mind that for every 30 or so shots you'll be able to use just one picture... and please don't pretend to do a 3D shot like most photograhers who basically snap and run around her thinking quantity vs. quality is more important. Often I've seen 200 shots that are almost identical but merely the camera man taking many shots with a slight change in position. It's boring. What will kill the shoot is her attitude and "desire" which will come out.

Finding a place to shoot I am surprised since there are many. You don't have to do a hotel or home - finding abandoned locations or even forests/waterfalls etc. is easy. I am sure you know friends who have ideas as well. Anything can be used for a price you need creativity here but if you must rent studio time.

In short depends on how professional you want it or if you're merely trying to find a reason to find a girl and fuck her while getting it on film. If you're making money then pick the right girls with positive and who love sex not just someone who wants money. But mostly - lighting - proper camera - editing equipment/software and set design makes for great pictures/videos.

Thank you Legacy. I appreciate this response. I have the camera, I have the lenses, I don't have the lighting because I do all natural light photography - but not adult in nature. Buying something however, is a simple solution. Do you have a suggestion for someone who only shoots natural light to start out with?

Fucking the model is definitely not on my menu. My husband might get jealous.

There would be no other reason to do this other than making money.

Did I just say my husband might get jealous? BWAHAHAHA

What was I thinking.

Hey'a Bob - this reminds me...how are the abandonments around Brantford these days? Last time I was over that way I remember a helluva lot of buildings boarded up.

1. girls - onemodelplace or sexyjobs
2. $100/hr or so, min $250 probably (i never pay less than $400); give a little extra and your will get referrals from your models.
3. why not shoot at your house? if not you can rent a room, try the suites type hotels which give you some options, or you can try craigslist, be surprised how many peeps will rent out their house for $200 for an afternoon.

lets see how long you stick with doing softcore model mayhem girly pics. i think we all start out that way with our first low end SLR being the nice guy with the big camera and the nice hotel suite, then we stop caring and get burned multiple times and evolve into 3rd world whoremongers POVing chicks on our front lawn with reckless abandon

welcome to content production

dude tell me ur a writer

I can't shoot at my house because -well - I have three daughters? Most of my friends also have kids and so using their house wouldn't work either, just on principle. I have a few bachelor friends, but they live like bachelors.

I do have lots of acreage behind my house - but I know the hunters have freeking cameras in the woods too lol.

When you weed through the girls say on sexyjobs - do you have them send you nude photos so you know if you want to continue?

Hello again - well outdoor shoots you already know that reflectors and some lighting may still be required for shadows - saying that - some good reflectors held properly and a good light meter will go a long way. Just make sure that when you're shooting outdoors to pick a place that has a good backdrop that isn't taking away from the model or "background noise" either in the form of people walking or airplanes etc. if you're taking videos. Saying that if you're aiming for voyeurism where people watch that's a different story and you'll need legal doc's and releases signed by anyone who appears in the shot.

Try being creative in the set design or location. If it's in a factory etc. or waterfall etc then dress the model or scene action to match it. Try to keep handy any makeup kits for problems and especially don't let the model get bored. They want you to tell them what to do - and finally - make sure the model is up for the scene. If they show up bored, drunk or tired etc. cancel it. Double check their body for marks/scars/cuts/bruises etc. to cover up. You'll never get good shots

Hey Silent!!

actually brantford has grown a lot and the boarded up places have been redeveloped with many new condo's and college/university buildings. It really has grown and alive with action.

Loving it here and close enough to Toronto if I need more entertainment.

Next time you're by - hit me up so we can head out for dinner or drink. peace
