Hey girls!! Curious about how to get into adult movies?? You've cum to the
right place!! It can ba a very fun and rewarding way to explore your sexuality
while being honest with yourself & get laid by tested pro's who know what
they're doing. It's also a great way to meet new people (actors, webmasters
and directors) while learning movie making aspects like sound, editing and
lighting. It can be a great gateway to unlimited possibilites if you use your
experience and knowledge wisely.
Here are some questions you should ask yourself B4 just jumping in:
Why do I want to do this?
What do I want to get out of this?
How long do I want to stay in it?
How you answer these will help you determine the course you take... Here's
a quickie crash course on what's up...
There's two types of films you can do, internet content and tangible videos;
when I say tangible videos I mean the "porn movies" that you rent
in the XXX video stores. Vancouver shoots mainly internet content which normally
pays less than tangible productions but is a good way to start off and get
some practice. There's usually not much acting involved in the internet shoots
(ok, there's not that much acting in tangible video shoots either unless it's
a Feature Film)
Before you contact anyone, set your limitations... are you only comfortable
with girls?? do you not like working with girls? do you do anal? is there
anything you're morally opposed to? NEVER EVER let anyone talk you
into doing anything you are not comfortable with. Make sure you understand
the all the details of the shoot & what is expected of you & who you
are working with B4 the shooting starts and be sure to negotiate the price
as well.
There are different ways you can prolong and make the most out of being a
"pornstar." You can either go super slowly... maybe only solo/fetish
at first, then moving on to girl/girl scenes, then guys but no anal, then
maybe anal after a long while... that way you're always holding something
back & leaving the directors & audience wanting more. A good example
of this is Asia Carrera ( www.asiacarrera.com
) Another way doing the total opposite of that, jumping in and going super
hardcore and Xtreme, like Bridgette Kerkove ( www.bridgettekerkove.com
) who's been very successful and has a huge fan base, BUT all the extreme
hardcore WILL wear you out & you might get burnt out faster.
If you really want the recognition of being a full fledged "pornstar"
the only place to go is Los Angeles... where almost all tangible porn titles
are shot. A good way to learn about the LA companies is going to Los Angeles
porn gossip sites like www.lukeford.com
and reading about the people, also check out www.avn.com
A good plan is also to set up profiles at www.onemodelplace.com
which will get you in contact with some local TFP (trade for print) photographers
who can give you some glamour & portfolio pics to start you off. Then
you can create adult based profiles on the forum here, www.adultstaffing.com
and www.xratedjobs.com
so people in North America can see what you have to offer.
I cannot stress that a good portfolio can get you better and more work in
all types of modeling. A good portfolio page/site should consist of
several full body shots (clothed is good, in bikini or something where they
can see your shape, headshots, your stats, location & if you are willing
to travel, what you WILL & WON'T do (your limitations). Now start
contacting companies from the "company list" on this site and talk
to them to see if they need girls!!
To do scenes involving other people you need to make sure you have a recent
copy of your AIDS test (in Vancouver it's called an Eliza test, in the USA
you need to get a AIM (Adult Medical Industry) AIDS test done, not older than
30 days) Good Luck and be safe. If you have severe allergies like I do, it'd
be a good idea to bring lube and condoms that you are familiar with. I learned
this the hard way............

Note from Zombiegirl - I did not alter this at all; it's the way
he sent it. Just a warning, #3 Do not tan everyday!!! Skin cancer is not attractive
and will certainly wreck your career.
1 |
Show up on time. Whether it is your interview or shooting day, reliability is key. |
2 |
Show up on time. |
3 |
Look your best. This is the most important rule besides #1. Remember the better you look, the better we look, the more we get paid, the more you get paid and work. I always hear girls talk about how much other girls get paid. It is true some girls get paid a ton of cash but guess what they are pros, they tan everyday, work out everyday, have there hair and nails done all the time and look like 10’s. Show up like that at my place and you will get a ton of work and more money and be able to tell other girls how much you get paid. Get it? |

Enjoy sex. There are three types of girls that walk in through the door. a. Those who love sex and showing off. I will take only A & B girls but would prefer type A. If all you care about is cash go back to school and get an education. I don’t know a single lawyer or doctor who is short on cash for rent. |

Don’t be shy everybody had their first shoot! A porno set is a lot like high school it’s a lot of fun and sometimes you’re the new kid, don’t worry one day soon that will all change. |
6 |
The director/photographer is the boss, listen to him/her. The director should explain what the shoot is about and what will happen. Listen and ask questions. |
7 |
Know what you are being paid. You and the Producer should have discussed this before. |
8 |
Bring two pieces of I.D. |
9 |
Get tested it is your responsibility. |
10 |
Realize that this not L.A., Jenna Jamison makes huge coin cause she fucked her way to the top. You have the same opportunities. Pay your dues and become the darling of Vancouver and you will have LA producers calling. In other words don’t call me back after your first shoot and ask for a 300% raise. When you are worth it you’ll know, it’ll be the same time that when you go out and everybody’s husband recognizes you and knows you by your stage name. |
11 |
Be open minded…if lube grosses you out then maybe you should do something else. |
12 |
Bring a couple changes of outfit. Remember this is adult entertainment, you are suppose to be someone’s fantasy! Bring your own lubrication if you like a certain one and specific condoms if you are allergic to the regular ones, bring me a receipt and I will pay for it. |
13 |
Know if there will be a makeup/hair person there. If there isn’t remember to put it on like it is your going out on a hot date. |
14 |
Smile your on camera…Act real and be nice to everybody on set. Remember not to talk shit about anybody. If you heard someone else talking about you, would you be impressed? |
15 |
The director/photographer is your best friend on the set. Remember that. |
16 |
Remember this is porn? Pretend it is the best sex ever, be loud and dirty. We know it isn’t but the viewer doesn’t have to either. |
17 |
If something makes you feel uncomfortable stop the shoot and talk o the director/photographer about it. That’s our job. |
18 |
Don’t worry if you are too old. I have 40 year old women who walk in to my office who look better than most 20 year olds. Remember to take good care of your appearance and body and you will never have anything to worry about. |
19 |
Be professional and you will be treated like one. |
20 |
Make my life easy. You want to have lots of work and make good cash just do what is expected and we will all be happy. |
