$1500 for a days worth of shooting is not alot of money, but it really depends on what kind of content is being shot. If your shooting chromes or super high rez magazine worthy photos and the video to match its a good price.

those Max Candy prices are from his imagination not reality - he gets paid what every other shooter gets for your average exclusive solo girl set - 120-150 bucks per set. he does shoot for ATK's Premium site and that does pay more but more is expected quality wise for that work.

This obviously effects us when we are budgetting one off jobs, with non exclusive sales keep coming and the revenue has grown to replace the falling dollar. DukeSkywalker I know it's tough using these Eastern European skags, but where else can I get girls to work for a day for a beer and sandwich, then give me a BJ before they go home? |

Seriously if the client wants his house painted for $500 that's what he will get. We have a client who pays $1500 for a lesbian set and video, but that is shot by Eva or myself and his site and conversion rates are at the top of the business. I know better than most the conversions on poor, average and good content. If you convert 1-1000 on poor, expect to convert 1-500 on good. The problem is knowing what is good, getting it in a regular supply and paying for it. |

I'm starting to think is a set at $150 better off with brokers. If Ounique, Photorama, Zappu and a few more can't sell it ten times in a couple of months the set is serious shite. We are content producers, it's in our interest to see sets sold to saturation point. Trust me sets we shoot make a bit more than $150 over their life time. ![]() |

I don't think so, Tim. Charly, you and I have had this discussion a few times. Each time you have had a firm stance that you can make more by shooting non-exclusive. Why the consideration of changing that now? And for the record......I charge at least $1,500 a day when I shoot exclusive solo content and I have the payment records to back that up. At that rate I am booked solid and well in advance for at least the next 6 months. So much in fact that I have had to subcontract 2 other shooters to keep up with client demands. I'll be more than happy to show you the numbers first hand next week so you can see them in black and white then make the decision if it is worth it to you or not. |

Every other shooter gets that huh? UH.....OK. I'm not going to post my contracts or exclusive numbers here but let's just say that I disagree with you. Yes, there are companies who only wish to pay 120-150 per set.....BUT.....Not all companies. There are only 2 companies that I have considered shooting at those prices for and at this point, I have not shot a single set for either of them even though I have girls which the companies have already approved. Now, if I happen to have an opening in my schedule and I happen to have a model around who wants a little work for less pay...THEN, and only then will I consider these lower rates. It's all about timing, I guess....and so far the timing has not presented an opening for me to justify doing it. Just 3 years ago I was selling exclusive solo sets for $400 per set with 70 to 100 pics per set and my quality was nowhere near what it is today. Man, I miss the days of those prices. Now that every Tom, Dick, and Harry will shoot for less, we have all had to drop our prices. That doesn't mean that I need to drop them even lower to stay in business. |

But we have another problem. Because of extra staff we've recruited for video editing and will employ soon as content manager, I have two girls sitting in the office doing very little work. We shoot 2-3 days for ourselves and the couple of custom clients we do have, Eva and I shoot for them, and just shooting more content will not resort to more sales. The top content goes int PMCS, the lesser stuff goes into BBCS both sites get enough new content to keep sales rolling. Putting up more sets will not mean more $$$. We will also be brokering for a UK DVD distributor so sales are at the top. So shooting exclusive was an option, I can put the two girls into the studio full time, they have both had their work published in magazines so not crap shooters, and leave them to it. $1500 a day is reasonable money for an easy days solo girl shoot. Problem is some think that's a lot. Lensmans offer of $1,000 a day is a joke and anyone working for that price is a fool or not very good. Respect to him and good luck if he gets it done at that price but, the shooter could earn a lot more brokering the sets or he is a very bad shooter. So maybe I should of started a thread asking what do I get these two girls to do, but that would of invited the idiots in. |

Most of the time we can tell if a set will make the grade in PMCS so there is no need to move it over. The few that do not make the grade we move after 3 months and under 4 sales. Can't remember the last time I did that though. |

well, see if it's your "end-result goal" maybe you should put off your "learn a bit more about it all" til the end. Don't think Aaronm has the time to write a tutorial on "how a newbie could reach his end-result goal". There are lot more things for newbies to learn a bit more about than end-result paysite so may wanna try to spend your time learning those first. And once you do that in a few years read your ever so genius post again and will very well be able to see why you were annoying others here with: Quote:

You keep on saying you're so good and blah blah blah.... everyone charging less is bad.... well for you info there are some damn good photographers doing way less than you can even imaging and have damn nice models. (And those photographers still make enough money to live a decent life.) And best of all, the members seem to agree. And THAT is what is of importance, nothing else. You seem to be a greedy person if you ask me. Don't take it personal, but you keep coming back to this stuff every few months and claiming all the same every time. |

$1500 is cheap!!!!!
$1500 for 4 sets and a short video is very reasonable. Its possible to shoot 20 sets a day and video, i know i've done it, but you end up with duplicate images because either you or the model did'nt move around fast enough.
I guess what webmasters don't fully realize is what's involved in shooting models professionally. When you hire cheap models you can get ones that are new or inexperienced or not really interested in modeling but just need rent money, shooting this type of model is usually a pain in the ass and the results less than perfect. If a model is disinterested it shows in the images and in the effort she puts into the videos. Makeup artists if used can cost $200. A good reliable and energetic model from LA will cost at least $500 plus agents commission of $50 to $100 and that's just for Solo/ pink/toys. A well know model can demand and get anything from $900 to ##### for hard-core scenes and then you have to pay the guy to do the pop shot again adding anything from $200 to ##### Add in the studio costs editing ( if required ) and some basic image sharpening and color correction and that $1500.00 is sounding very cheap to me. The most important aspect of exclusive content is it can be custom shot to the webmasters requirements. The webmaster can own something no other site has. It can be guys fucking car exhausts to girls making love to a vacuum cleaner, whatever it is the webmaster is in complete control of his content, the model choice, the makeup and even the location. All this for just $1500.00 is a steal IMHO. ![]() |

The price of production has little to nothing to do with the price of the sale, it's the products value that determines the selling price. I do say we are good, because we are. As for those charging less maybe you would like to show them to me because I would love to see what you think is good. Greedy or just want to make as much money as possible from a days work? Do you stop taking money from members or sponsors when you hit a certain level? so show me the guys who can shoot good content for $1,000 a day. Shooting 8 pieces of content that would be $125 a piece, they are robbing themselves they would make more money brokering the content. |

With shooting at $1,000 a day 50% goes straight to the model and possibly agent. Then there are lots of other costs. Cameras, lights, clothing, props, studio or locations, film tapes, DVD discs, postage. All these costs have to be met for a days shoot. Cameras and lights need servicing yearly or replacing, props and clothing need replacing, studios need decorating. Yes the studio and staff are paid for so no need to add them on These are costs that are paid out on every days shoot. The only way to shoot for less is to pay the model a lot less and we can't do that here. As I said show me the guys who shoot custom for $1,000 a day. I might want to talk to them about brokering or even buying in their work to resell. |

4 short shoots including pics AND video for $1500, that's a great price - ESPECIALLY for the lighting and pretty girls paul's content usually has.
or he could do 6 shorter rushed shoots, for your basic amateur site. that seems like a good deal to me. sure, there are people who shoot it cheaper, but usually their lighting or girls leaves something to be desired... |

Good business is very possible to do in this industry. You may want to try to not alienate yourself by taking offence and then attacking when people offer advice that you don't wish to hear. I didn't insult you, I made a general comment. And look how you reacted. Yeah, I can see the people lining up to do business with you now. |

And no, not saying GFY because of a general comment about a big mistake, I said it because it appeared you were saying "you know nothing so don't even try". I don't expect anyone to spend their time educating me, but spending time telling someone they're making a big mistake without pointing out what that mistake is seems rather pointless. If the mistake you're referring to is that of a green newbie going straight to opening a paysite, I'm sure I concur. Hence my attempts to learn what I can before starting. And also why I peppered my post with the words "newbie perspective"...meaning I know full well that I'm not speaking with any authority and may well be making mistakes. |

However there are people with another business model. They are getting their "100K" hits a day and converting 1-1,000 and think the best way to inprove on that is more hits. So they spend more time, money and effort in getting more affiliates with more free gifts, banners and lures. Which works but costs money. (The figures are to illustrate a point) What some others do is look at the conversion ratio of 1-1,000 and turn that into 1-500. They then double their membership, but more importantly they double the money their affiliates earn and need to spend less $$$ on getting them. Then there are the guys that adopt method 1 and 2 and now we are talking about the giants of the industry. When someone criticises my wanting more money for my work he had best not have a link in his signature that sends me to a site that has saturated sets in the tour and low quality sets as well. This guy needs to think hard about method two, assuming he has the money to invest. Quote:
Plus today you should not even dream about starting up a paysite unless you can compete with 10% of your competition, look around at what's available in the niche and make the calculations. I would say in todays business the first thing you need is a lot of money to start a proper paysite. $20,000 is not a lot of money. |

I coulda swore I read an interview with you somewhere, assumed it was one of the Ambush ones. Maybe not, perchance you are mentioned by others in their interviews. Or maybe I read a post or two of yours when I was reading all the other interviews. Dunno. Doesn't matter, all I can say is that it stuck in my mind that you'd been around for a while, established, experienced, and were apparently known for honest dealings. Was I far off the mark? I know that you were on the list of people I thought it'd be cool to meet when I got further in and started doing the industry show thing. Just your response to my post caught me off-guard; I inferred it to be an insult...my original post was just me trying to look at things the way I currently understood them and to provide some insight to charly regarding a newbie's reaction to the prices he was asking about. And yeah, I probably replied a bit in haste with the wrong tone (based on reading a lot of GFY lately, but that's no excuse)...but it really did seem to me that you were just saying that since I didn't know anything about the biz that I should stay out of the biz. If that wasn't your intention, I apologize for my reaction. |

And yeah, I don't think $20k is a lot of money (in relation to starting a business); my original post came from the concern of not being able to get enough return on the $$ to justify buying (most of) one's content at those prices. But standard supply-and-demand comes into play....if that's what quality content costs, that's what it costs. Thanks for entertaining my queries, and I apologize for the mini-hijack that happened when I misunderstood AaronM's post. |

The problem is we are all talking about content as if it's bags of potatoes, but even those have a different pricing according to quality.
But we can supply sets like this shot by one of my assistants Or brand new girls like this. Excuse the poor image I shot it on my little digital camera and I know it's crap. And yes we can still shoot quick and simple. |

And look what just walked into the studio for a casting.
She does everything, including boy girl anal. So I'm taking orders now on her. Don't insult me by offering $150 a set. |

For solo girl... a whole day ... I think it's very acceptable ... you can shoot many sets in a single day.

But producing porn is not about numbers, there are shooters who boast they can shoot a set in 20 minutes. But will it sell, convert and retain as well as a set that was shot in 40 minutes or even an hour? If you look upon it purely as a numbers game dont be surprised if the people you sell to are not the top quality and don't be surprised if it's harder to sell to them. We are not in the vegetable business, don't think of porn as sacks of carrots. Then even those are sold by quality. There are sites who do think of it as a numbers game and some do well, but the new Adult Net is looking at a different model. As I said you can convert 1/1000 and throw more traffic or you could look at getting one of the 999 non buyers to buy instead of leaving your site. |

There is a thread on this board about a custom shooter and his constant fuck ups, it has dragged in another shooter. They are not unique, one of the constant themes here are the fuck ups of custom shooters.
When you screw your supplier into the ground on price you are left with a supplier working on a tight margin, limited resources and not able to invest. He is also more likely to screw up, let you down and not break his balls to put things right and keep your custom. I know what it costs to shoot porn, Eva is a trained book keeper and tells me reguarly. The cost of cameras, lights, bulbs and tubes for the lights, accessories for the equipment, getting the equipment serviced and maintained. Then computer equipment, programs, Internet connection, hosting, and building a site. Then studio or locations, transport to the location, props, furniture, vibrators and batteries do not last for ever. You do not want an exclusive set of a girl shot to saturation point on a sofa in 100 sets and underwear in more. Don't expect the model to turn up with everything, she's there because she broke. Then there is the model herself, she needs to be paid pretty well so she's happy, often you need to find her via an agent, if not you need to advertise. They don't just walk in off the street. Then there are little things like insurance, accountants and book keeping. Now if you scrimp on any of the above you end up with a product that is less likely to hit your traffic with a product they will pass over. Cut down on the quality of what you deliver your client and you raise the level of refusals, what good is content at $200 a set or video if it converts half as well as content at $400 a set or video? I have repeatedly asked for the names of the mystery suppliers who do this marvelous work at cut prices, yet to see an answer. The business is changing by the day, the bar is being lifted every time a surfer joins a site. You need to think a lot harder about what you deliver to your surferm because if you do not your competitor will. Beside the surfer the biggest reason to raise your bar is the affiliate. The newbie is not going to really send a lot of traffic and if it does not convert he will soon give up. The experienced affiliate knows what's good and what's bad. He won't even join a site with crap content. So spend on converting and retaining members and affiliates or spend $3,000 a month on a banner on GFY? This is without the trouble some are going through today trying to get content out of a supplier who is obviously working on the minimum resources. As for us, I've picked up two clients who do want us to shoot for them and at more than $1000 over models fees a day. Maybe they are thinking "If I have his stuff exclusive my competitor does not" We're not the best in the business, but pretty close to it on the teens side. |

I forgot another cost on every shoot. Tapes, Discs, packing and postage. So add another $50 to a days work. That should cover the basics.

I used to shoot a little bit for myself and a friend of mine some time ago so i'm well aware of the costs that go in there then again it's a bit different mindset there cos when you shoot for your own sites you don't think much about the behind the scenes costs cos you'd be otherwise paying many of those bills anyways (cost of business), not to mention you don't pay the same rate for every model, they can also be referred/non-referred so cost can be a bit different per shoot (again cost of business). But prob is shooting is a fulltime job by itself and so is webmastering. You gotta pick one or the other. I agree $1500 is not a bad price for a day's shoot without any background deals but the only prob is that in my very personal opinion, if I want czech content it'd be to save some money and not to pay the same amount i'd pay for u.s. shoots at the same token, other people's opinion can be different than mine ofcourse ![]() |

So a site owner has to balance quality with quantity. The bottom line with all these prices is what some will pay and some will sell for. We can get $1,000 a day plus models costs for 100% exclusive, some cannot. But the other consideration is what the content is worth, if we put a days work on the site it's worth a lot more than $1,500. But we are at capacity on the content store, 10 new sets or videos released a week. we are at capacity for magazines, 120 a year. So will do exclusive. |

I hear what you're saying Seven and we do sometimes just shoot a one off set or video for a client and charge accordingly. Often a client will want a set of a girl in his T-Shirt or a particular scene.
As for selling off other rights this might be possible, but most magazines now want non exclusive Internet rights and the level of quality needed to sell to magazines does not come form a shooter and model doing 4-5 scenes a day. Magazines pay $1,000 for a set non exclusive, they take what is right not cheap. But if I could find a market for semi exclusive that allowed us the to retain some of the rights I would be very interested. As for the cost of models and people not wanting Czech girls, the biggest problem we have is the US crews here paying girls $1,000 a day or even a scene. So it seems many do want these girls. The best girls will simply not rush out to work for less and they don't need to because many realise the cost of content is the last thing the consumer is thinking while he has his dick in his hand. ![]() |
