Negotiable Agreement?
 
Well I don't know the standard rates for me to do just a solo for a popular gay site.

I've never been on a gay site at all, I just do straight B/G scenes and modeling shoots.

Well here is his business proposition .

"You do look great in pictures. The one pic that makes me even want to
discuss hiring you is the headshot of you smiling. The others look hot,
but staged. No offense; there's definitely a place for that. The smiling
pic simply looks more human. I don't want our viewers to just get off by
watching you, I want them to fall in love. That's the real way to get
repeat business and viral sales.

To answer your questions about compensation, we're using a 21st century
approach for that as well. The advance on royalties will be very small ~ I
won't dress it up ~ just $50 per scene at the end of the shoot. Your
royalty itself, however, amounts to an equal share split with all other
models (per-product, per-scene) of 25% of the net revenue (past billing
cost) of all sales. Each scene will be available for individual online
purchase, or as part of a compilation download or DVD.

In other words, say you're in two scenes, on solo and one with another guy,
both of which make it onto a compilation with two other duo scenes. The
individual scenes net, for ease of math say, $4 per download, and the
compilation nets $10.80 per dvd sale or download, each past credit card
processing cost. So, one month the solo is downloaded 40 times (25% of $4
= $1, times 10 is $40), the duo is downloaded 100 times ($1 split with the
other model is $0.50, times 30 is $50), and the compilation is downloaded
or shipped as dvd 70 times (you're in two scenes, out of 9 total
model/scenes at 25%, equals $0.60 per download to you, times 50 is $42.)
So, your royalty for that month totals $132. The sales lifespan of any
given scene may be several years. [Obviously, these examples are for math
purposes only and should not be construed as a promise of sales. Aren't we
glad we have attorneys who tell us how to speak? lol]

You can track your sales at any time through your own login, and royalties
will be dispersed monthly. (You can verify we're not skimming by having a
friend make a purchase and then looking for his first name and purchase
date and time in your sales log.) This also encourages models to promote
their videos through their own websites, appearances, social networks, and
so forth. All told, you can eventually earn much more for your work than
through the traditional wham-bam-thank-you-sir business model. We all
benefit.

So, if this longwinded reply intrigues you and doesn't scare you off, I
look forward to hearing from you and perhaps working with you!"


I kind of forget their sites name but here is the domain for their model app form -spoogio.com .

I'm just asking you experienced people how much higher I should make the take home pay and if to change the percentages?

So the site is a VOD business model ? Sorry I don't want to look at gay porn right now, don't feel like it.

Sounds like low hanging fruit to keep you locked in and broke, therefore you keep coming back for more scenes that is...

I don't have alot of experience in this arena.. so this is completely an outside opinion :)
