Do you or would you consider shooting porn?
I would have no problem shooting soft core or nudes. I believe the female form is a beautiful thing to be celebrated. It would have to be art photos or video, no nasty stuff. Being female myself, I believe I could make it artistic in lieu of trashy and that would not give me any hesitation at all. Nov 20 08 11:20 am Link No problem at all for me. Art is art especially if my wallet gets bigger in the process. My wife would have a problem with it though Nov 20 08 11:23 am Link Rita Lovely wrote: ...I would consider shooting porn.

Nov 20 08 11:27 am Link I've shots a few things that could be considered porn. I see no reason not to do it again as long as I am being paid. The only things I refuse to shoot are babies and weddings. Everything else is open season. Nov 20 08 11:30 am Link Andrew Vorobyov wrote: One's an inney and one's an outey. Nov 20 08 11:32 am Link I did a shoot with a couple ladies together for my auto mechanic. It got pretty graphic towards the end. I asked him what he wanted them for, and he only said "an online business I'm working on." I didn't want to know anymore, and made sure I didn't tag the images in any way. I even removed all info from the shots. It was interesting, and a TF shoot. I needed a new starter for my truck, and he needed the shots. I averaged making close to $1K for an hours work, if I'd taken it to a dealership to have replaced. Best TF shoot I ever did. Nov 20 08 11:38 am Link Would I shoot softcore or hardcore porn? Sure, why not? Does it go against my morals? Sorry, I had to wait until I stopped laughing. NO! Does it take away from my artistic expression? What artistic expression? My sister got the art gene. Family reasons? My parents are both dead and I could not care less what my cousins might think. Already successful in commercial or fashion? Woops. Fell off my chair while laughing there. NO! Edit: Rita Lovely, if you should ever decide to go into porn, keep me in mind as a potential photographer. Now if you had asked if I would PERFORM in porn I would really be laughing. No porn producer would want old, overweight and ugly unless said performer was fronting truckloads of money for the production. Nov 20 08 11:41 am Link Not interested... Don't want to have to clean anything off my expensive lenses if we have an overachiever on the set with a good aim and a long throw... Nov 20 08 12:19 pm Link Yes i would shoot porn Nov 20 08 02:09 pm Link Magnus Hedemark wrote: Now you are giving me an idea or two... Nov 20 08 02:11 pm Link After walking into THE lv porn factory in 2005 and shooting there was never a problem after that, but i must add for the first hour my jaw was on the floor.

I don't see anything redeeming in it artistically. Nov 20 08 02:22 pm Link Hell Yea!! Tough job but somebody gotta do it! We all gotta "eat" ya know..... hmmm that probably didnt "come" out right....... damn i think people will be missing my "point" if i keep talking like this..... shoot...... hehehe if you dont have a sens eof humor please dont quot eme and say how nasty and Immature I am I knwo all them thinsg already haha Nov 20 08 02:28 pm Link the one thing about porn that is often understated in comparison to other forms of entertainment is that it is completely honest about what it is. More so than most other forms of entertainment in America which tend to be built on foundations of pretense. When you work in production long enough all this shit just becomes a job one way or another. You can go to work on a porn set and you know exactly why you are there and what the function of the product is to serve. You go to work on some network TV show and everyone standing around is operating under some fantasy that you are making this great thing when the bottom line really boils down to the network just seeing your product as the crap they have to create to fill the time between the commercials which ultimately is their main concern. Its up to you to decide which is "dirtier". I dont mean to be defending porn or anything, my exposure to the industry has lead to a unmuddied conclusion that its an incredibly dirty and fucked up industry, however the one thing it is above all else is honest about itself and its intention and however fucked up that is to realize, its sadly lacking in many other venues of production in America today.

I can really use the cash, so I'm willing to give it a go. Whether I'll do it again after that depends on what the experience was like. I don't expect I would "enjoy" it. They want to do it in my studio too, but I think I'll insist on doing the shoot at their place. Don't really want stains in my background cloths!

Nov 20 08 03:54 pm Link I wouldn't have any problem shooting porn... especially if it were a paid shoot. Nov 20 08 03:57 pm Link SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!! Nov 20 08 03:58 pm Link Just don't need to. Nov 20 08 04:00 pm Link I guess part of the reason for my apprehension is that I'll be shooting a casual aquaintance, who I initially thought was an expert traditional and trantric masseuse but has progressed to being a full on prostitute. She also has bi-polar disorder, so she does things that are weird or piss me off, and she doesn't have the kind of figure that you'd want to photograph. The kind of pics she wants I would likely consider totally crass and filthy. If someone approached me to shoot certain kind of content for their magazine, such as photostories where the subject gradually strips off their clothing to show off their wares and play with themselves a bit, that would be a bit different. That's more soft porn and allows the possibility of some creativity and artistry. I'd still not use my 'regular' name but would shoot under an alias. Nov 20 08 04:01 pm Link Just don't need to. Will it help you in get where you want to in modeling or photography??????? Nov 20 08 04:01 pm Link geodiego wrote: Yeah I realise people have different ideas and experiences when it comes to shooting porn. My first answer was from the perspective of shooting two sex-crazy amateurs who want prints of themselves doing the wild thing, that they can share with other couples who like to share fuck pics. I see no artistic value in that kind of thing. Nov 20 08 04:05 pm Link Thought #1: 4 pages, only 4 female models responded. That means this was a good advertisement for the OP ;-) Thought #2: What's porn?

Nov 20 08 04:09 pm Link is there a list of pornstars on here already? Nov 20 08 04:10 pm Link GoldRoseMedia wrote: Big deal. Keep track of your records...and unless you are filming models doing a chainlink fence and then selling it to Florida or Utah, NOT a big deal.

I'd like to know where the OP got the idea that there's good money in shooting porn. You couldn't find a cheaper industry if you tried. :-) Nov 20 08 04:21 pm Link did the gig as a model for a bit...it wasn't about the money!!....lol Nov 20 08 04:29 pm Link SLE Photography wrote: HAHA that's awesome. Nov 20 08 04:44 pm Link Strange that so many models avoided this thread! But............... If the money was right yes!! Nov 20 08 04:51 pm Link yes i would shoot, especially if RITA LOVELY was my subject Nov 20 08 04:52 pm Link |
