Position:Home>Theater & Acting> How do I get into the adult film industry. 22 yr old male. Very open minded.?


Question:There's not a lot of money for starting males (unless you're doing gay films). Like $50 a day.

Hit up all the producers in Reseda and Canoga Park, CA, that's the adult film capital.

Get a copy of Adult Video News and check their producer list.

I have no clue. I really wouldn't consider the adult film industry an acting profession, but to each his own.

In what capacity do you want to work--as an actor, camera operator, director, scriptwriter (he he, as if they used real writers)?

The first thing you ought to do is to get your hands on the sort of videos you want to make, find the address of the production company, and contact them.

I'm going to presume you're into acting. If so, be aware that you're entering a high-risk profession. If you do break into the career, you're likely to wind up with a sexually transmitted disease or two within the first couple of years; you will occasionally be medicated in order to (ahem) "perform" your role; you will not make very much money unless you start your own production company (which itself requires a good deal of money).

Moreover, the adult video market is changing, what with streaming internet video making it less expensive and more convenient for those who wish to indulge. Why pay a premium for the next blu-ray disk when there are amateur videos on the web with superior dialogue and more realistic action?

Having answered your question with a degree of respect for your goals, I'd counsel you to avoid the career and instead make it one of your fondest fantasies. Go into a line of work where it's not common for people to end up sick and addicted.
