#3. A Clue

chanses are that if you dont even know what cam to use, you will never be able to make any pictures in a quality worth paying for. And if your first action in your "I want to shoot girls" adventure is to ask the surfers on GFY, then you should NOT waste your's, our's or the model's time

Everyone with a camera thinks they can shoot good porn, try researching it and learning before you jump into it. To do it right it cost alot of money for proper lights, cameras, etc.. Experience is the key, why do you think guys that shoot quality stuff are always booked

Buzz · 08-01-2005, 07:54 AM

start with a cheap $100 worth camera - if anybody buys your art at least at.... hmmm 10 cent per pic rate - that means success. Then you buy ... let's say Canon 350D (called "Rebel" in States) and continue shooting. Afterwards you'll be able to choose a better camera by yourself.

as for 2257 docs - mostly you need model's ID (as much government issuaed valid ID's as possible) + model release (try to google to find ready blank document)

Though mostly you'll need a head on your shoulders to use.

If you plan on amateur and single girl sites you can do good without any experience at all. Takes a few hours of practice with the camera and your ready to shoot.

If your in Sweden you don't need to follow stupid 2257 laws. Just make sure you get a signed contract from the model and to be safe make a copy of her ID.

But... if your plan is to take quality pics and resell licenses for them you will probably fail.

Women adn someone to sell the content to, but amateur content is going to be hard to sell unless you have the next aria Giovanni, in which case you'll lose her anyways toa big studio with a lot of money.

It's tough

start with photography lessons, then hire a lawyer before you do anything

maxjohan · 08-01-2005, 08:11 AM

good advice

latinasojourn · 08-01-2005, 09:11 AM

when starting to shoot you need money, models, and unique imagination.

the hardware is not the most important part.

but if i was starting today i think i would go canon rather than nikon. i think canon color is better, but i have all nikon glass.

if you shoot vids get a 3 chip camera---it will work better in low light.

you have many hardware choices, and 90% are good enough for web work.

good luck.

You have a new business idea every 2 weeks. Get a partner with enough sense to keep you under control.

AOLGuy · 08-01-2005, 10:28 AM

What you are going to need more than anything is a whole lot of patience, as well as verbal skills and finesse to deal with the huge amount of flakeyness involved with most models.

Either that, or the strongarm negotiation tactics of a mobster...or an unlimited supply of heroin/crack to get them hooked on and keep them manageable!

Give it a month or two, and you'll wish I were kidding!
