FEMALE MODELS WANTED

for erotic shoots

ALL-FEMALE filming crew (except for the director)

Safe, Respectful, Caring, Fun environment

Make about $5,000 in 5-6 days, or about $1,000 per day. ($160/hr to $200+ /hr, plus bonus)

First-timers welcome!

Most of our past models came back for more...

Why? Lots of money, no more office jobs, fascinating learning about their eroticism...

(Modeling not for you? Make money simply by referring! $100+ per referral. Details here )

 

First of all, thank you for your interest. If you're new at this, we'd like to applaud your bravery for considering it!

We hope that the following Q&A will answer most of your questions and allay some of your concerns. It is especially geared towards people who have never modeled erotically before; most of our past 70+ models were first-timers! Why so many first-timers? Because we make it easy for them!

Q&A:

Who am I dealing with?

If you were expecting cigar-puffing, sleazy guys -- you won’t find that here. You'll find quintessential "San Francisco Bay Area types," with leftist politics, progressive values and (sex-positive) feminist sensibilities. We're VERY COMFORTABLE with sexuality -- and it shows!

Except for the director, the entire filming crew are women.

Meet some of us! (Not included in the list below are the girls who handle the makeup and hair styling at the beginning of each shoot, as well some of the video editors.)

André, who moved to California from his native Europe, has been a massage therapist for several years, and also has a background in art and videography. He started this project over 6 years ago. His current roles are primarily as film director, project manager, sometime actor, and casting agent. He has long had a liberated attitude about sex (as you know, they're more easygoing about that in Europe than in the US...), as well as an interest in the exploration of eroticism and sexuality in many of its forms.

André's favorite quotes about him:

    "You're less shady than most other productions I've looked into."
    "I was pleased to find that you weren't a slimy old man."
    "André is the least shady person I have known."

Ashley, after working at a local grocery store for much too long, was ready for some excitement and to go after her true desires. While looking for a personal assisting job online, she came across our ads and knew right away she would be the perfect woman for the job...
Always appearing to be the innocent girl on the outside, the time had come to let go and do something out of the “norm”. Since 6/08 she has found herself working the job she never thought she would, and much enjoys and looks forward to going to work!
Ashley helps around the studio keeping things in order and making sure films go “smoothly”... She finds her new line of work refreshing and can't help but mention it has added a few new moves to her groove.

Alyssa answered this very ad in the late 2005, and soon got into several films. By coincidence, she ended covered up in chocolate in two of them...
A real-life nymphomaniac, she quickly made herself at home in many ways, and at various times got involved in the video editing and camerawork. Currently, she's part of the talent-scout team.

Sadie, a cinematographer and editor, also plays bass and sings in a band. She states that "working with Andre and his girls has opened up a whole new world of sensuality and eroticism for me. I've discovered sensations I never knew existed! Every film is a great adventure and a fantastic escape from reality. I always look forward to what I might learn in the next film..."
She works as our primary videocamera operator, associate cinematographer and one of our video editors.

Christina had always enjoyed watching erotic films, and felt they helped her discover hidden fantasies and desires that she could never actually do in real life. One day, she took the plunge and answered this very ad.
Very quickly, she overcame her insecurities and fears -- and got into a film just days later!
Soon afterwards, she decided to be even more involved: it became clear that she had a talent in camera work, and she received training in it. Besides starring in 2 more films, she later became our main camcorder operator for a year. Nowadays, she mostly helps out with our huge backlog of phone calls to make. [A more detailed version of her story appears in a box in a later section]

Plus some formerly involved people:

Isabella has been a close friend of André for several years, and they've done many art projects together.
She managed to get college credit for the camerawork she did last year for these films! Now that she has graduated from college, she's in the filming crew, and is also involved in the editing.
An accomplished bellydancer -- and something of a sex maniac from a young age -- she's endowed with a soft personality that tends to both relax and seduce people...

Zoe Trouble is a "Jill of all trades." She has a background in fashion as well as welding; so, there's no problem she can't solve...
Watch out though -- her cheery disposition and exuberant amount of energy are highly contagious!!
Zoe has always been fascinated by the world of fetish and bondage; so, she's no stranger to this eccentric lifestyle.
No doubt about it, upon meeting her your mood will be brightened and any shyness will melt away ;)
She endeavors to be a "magical fairy" who helps everything go more smoothly, whether on the shoots or behind-the-scenes.

Susan joined this project pretty much at its beginning. Her background in Psychology and Sociology, plus a strong interested in sexuality, led her to become a professional dominatrix, which she did for several years.
Also interested in visual arts and cinematography, she has done photography as a hobby, and has worked in a number of TV film productions. She designs web sites professionally.
For several years, she was involved with the filming crew, the video editing and other post-production work.

Katia, Andre's former girlfriend, responded in 2003 to this very ad you're looking at.
Her total exhibitionism was at odds with a personality that can be painfully shy! But she found comfort in a book entitled "Exhibitionism for the Shy" (available at Good Vibrations) and took the plunge...
Quickly, she got involved in this project as a model (10 films), photo editor and photographer.
After discovering erotic modeling, she reveled in never having to get up early in the morning or having anything to do with "straight jobs" (shuddered at the thought of her last one, packing groceries, where she lasted all of 2 days!)

Ginger has a sweet tooth for candies and sex! To counterbalance spending her college tuition money at "Good Vibrations," she saves up by buying condoms wholesale in boxes of 100... Growing up, she had to put up with her father covering up her eyes whenever there was a sexual scene in a movie! Now, she makes up by writing erotica and taking classes about sexuality. Majoring in Psychology, she moonlights as a reiki practitioner and ceramic artist -- when not busy rigging up her bed for bondage. She was in our filming crew for a good many past films.

Melissa was one of the first people who joined this project when it was just starting up. She was part of the filming crew in the early videos, till she moved out of the Bay Area.

How did you get into all this?

In addition to our interest in sexuality and eroticism, we have a deep disgust for "straight" office/corporate/retail jobs — probably just like you! It gets tiresome to be over-educated and under-paid, not to mention being imprisoned behind a desk or counter all day.

As you undoubtedly know, the exorbitant cost of living in the Bay Area generally means one of : 1) go corporate, 2) go unorthodox, or 3) move out! Our feeling is that "if I can make money in unorthodox ways, without selling my soul, why not?"

André became more "radical" after losing scores of friends who left the Bay Area over the years because they couldn't make an adequate living, or because they got burned out by working constantly to just pay the evil rent.

Christina, Katia, Susan, Isabella and others got involved in this project after meeting André (aka "the instigator" or "the tempter"!)


How far along are you in your project?

After over ½ year of preparations, we shot our first videos at the start of 2002. We're delighted to say that, from the very beginning, the energy during the video sessions was very relaxed, warm and comfortable. Later, we hooked up with a company that buys the materials from us. So, now funded, we resumed production, increased the frequency of shoots, and steadily increased the pay rate for models.

In total, we've made over 100 films (a combo of all-female, male-female and male-female-female.) Each film takes about a day to shoot, and ends up as a feature about 1 to 2 hours long.

So far, over 70 girls (of median age 20 years old) have modeled for us. Several of them numerous times. Most were first-timers. And, yes, you can talk to some of them if you'd like to.




WHAT WE NEED


Who are you looking for?

Women, 18 and over, with a sex-positive(*) attitude along these lines:

(*) Sex-positive: adjective, not ashamed or hateful of sexuality. noun, someone who feels, or is trying to feel, comfortable with their sexuality or with sexuality in general, and who takes joy in exploring it.

Exhibitionistic tendencies of course help, but if you're shy -- and willing to deal with that -- it's OK with us. A desire to explore other sides of oneself is also a great motivation.

Being uninhibited about a wide range of erotic expression -- or willing to be adventurous about widening your boundaries -- would also be extremely helpful.

Reliability is a huge plus (and it will also earn you lots of good karma in life in general!)


Who are you NOT looking for?

Women whose attitude is "any involvement with the sex-entertainment industry is hideously demeaning -- but I'm desperate for money and so I'll do it." Or attitudes like: "I'll do it, though I'll be thoroughly miserable and resentful -- but I'll enjoy making everyone else miserable, too!"

If this is you, this project is ABSOLUTELY NOT for you. Please, don't try to fake it -- it'll become clear to us, and we will NOT work with you under any circumstances. You'll be wasting your time...

Does it matter if I've never done anything like this before?

No problem at all! You'll receive all the guidance and reassurance you need, in a warm, respectful and mostly female-centric environment.

If you're "testing the waters" about modeling, you can talk to past models. We can also do a non-commercial, no-expectations, little casting shoot or art shoot, to get you used to being in front of a camera (many discover for the first time that they love being there!)



What are your age requirements?

What matters is not your real age, as long as over 18, but how old you look. For marketing reasons, we're seeking women who look in their teens or 20's. Most of our past models were in their late teens or early/mid 20's. The median age was 20, and several had turned 18 just weeks before. Our sincere apology to the women of other ages, who can possess great beauty, personality, experience and wisdom.

If you've been smoking for several years, you should realistically add at least 5 years to your calendar age.

If you're a non-smoker over 30, and think you look younger, please email photos.

What about looks?

The only things we can say is "attractive, youthful and feminine." You don't need to be a "fashion model" (in the dominant cultural view of beauty, that is.) Like most women, you are probably more beautiful than you give yourself credit for… And, let's not forget that a lot of beauty resides in the personality.

Do I need to have a Barbie-doll figure?

Heavens, no! There are other body types are that are fine, too. A little roundness may be OK. Being slender is a big plus, but you don't need to look anorexic or like a Playboy model. It's more a matter of being reasonably firm and fit.

Looking for a good excuse to seriously hit the gym? A $160-200+/hr job can be a fabulous incentive to stay on that treadmill!

What if I have problems with my body-image?

That's the regrettable situation that (unnecessarily) torments most women in our society. The best remedy, for general body-image problems, is probably to make you feel comfortable and appreciated; we'll do our best in that regard. If it's some specific "angle" that makes you uneasy, we'll endeavor to minimize or avoid it. You'll be impressed by how our expert video editors manage to make people look really good!

We'd be delighted -- and not too surprised -- if the modeling experience turns out to improve your body-image. It has helped a number of our past models...

Are you looking for particular ethnicities?

We're mainly in need of Whites, Latinas, and Asians (including east Indian.)

In the case of models from other ethnicities, please email us photos. For everyone else, photos are optional (unless you feel borderline about any of the requirements.)

What about piercings, tattoos, "butch looks", etc.?

Limited piercings and relatively small, "feminine" tattoos are generally OK, but we're not looking for anyone who has a "butch", "androgynous" or in any way "masculine" look. (This is a marketing issue, not a sociopolitical or esthetic statement.) Larger or more masculine-looking tattoos may be covered with suitable makeup, though that gets more difficult if you have freckles.

What about hair length?

The longer, the better!

What if I have braces?

Generally, no problem!

What if I'm petite?

No problem -- all heights are welcome!

What if I have small breasts?

That's fine for some of the roles.

What if I have some physical disability?

It may well be fine! It'd be wonderful if this project could support some different-abled people! We should be able to accommodate people with mobility problems, and perhaps blindness. Other situations will be considered on a case-by-case basis.







COMPENSATION


What's in it for me?

You'll be paid, of course (details below.)

We also pledge to donate a portion of the net profits to charitable causes. Recent beneficiaries have included moveon.org (a progressive organization), anti-Bush causes and the ACLU.

Furthermore, this can be an opportunity for you to explore such issues as body-image, sexuality (including towards other women), fantasies, and exhibitionism, or to make sociopolitical or personal statements.

If you're the type who enjoys getting attentions or being in the center stage, you'll be in 7th heaven! Conversely, if you are shy but want "to do something about it," this could be a great opportunity... We like shy models -- they tend to be the bravest ones in the long term!

You might also enjoy checking off one more item in your "taboos-to-break" list!

If you have aspirations in acting or fashion modeling, we'll be happy to take a professional photographic or video portfolio of you at no charge (within reason.)

Likewise, we can take quality photos or video for your own personal use, done in any manner you like and at no charge (again, within reason!)

If you have an interest in photography or video productions, this project might be an opportunity for you to learn about those fields.

The erotic videos you do with us could also be edited down to the parts you like, for personal mementos or as professional portfolios.

When/How will I be paid?

On the day of the session. Upon request, by postal money order.

How much will I be paid?

That’s negotiable, and it depends on the details of the session (how long, what, etc.) and on whether you follow the pre-agreed script.

The general baseline is about $160 per hour.

However, if you look in your teens or early 20's, or have somewhat "fashion model" looks, that opens up new marketing possibilities, and we can offer up to about $200 per hour or more.

Shoots are typically 3.5 to 4.5 hours, and can be scheduled at your convenience. All times are measured from the time the cameras start rolling. Setup takes about an hour, if you arrive ready (we give out checklists), and gets compensated with an extra $20/hr.

A written agreement will spell out all fees, details and expectations in advance, so there won't be any surprises.

Please remember that we are a relatively new production. Hopefully, some day we'll be more established and able to offer even more. In the meantime, past models who kept coming back have seen their fees increase as we get bigger. Keep in mind that we can also offer other non-cash benefits, as described in the "What's in it for me?" section above.

It sounds tempting now that I'm in my teens/20's/early 30's -- but if I get used to this high-income lifestyle, what will I do when I get older?

You can retire young! For example, if you're now 18 and save $1,000 a month through erotic modeling (try doing that with a receptionist's job!) then, if you retire at 35, you'll have $204,000 in your savings account! (17 years x 12 months/year x $1,000/month )

That's if you withdraw and spend the interest (which, assuming a 5% annual rate, will be $10,200 a year at the time of your "retirement".) If you let the interest remain in your account, then you'll retire with something like $320,000 (assuming a 5% APR and monthly accumulation of interest.)

One last example. Under the same assumptions, but a $2,000/month savings and letting the interest accumulate, if you start at 18 and retire at 35, you'll have $645,000 in your savings account! Sounds too good to be true? That's the power of compound interest! Check out this Excel spreadsheet, or ask your accountant/math teacher.




What will I be supposed to do?

Different films have different requirements, and that changes all the time. Generally speaking, scenes tend to involve more intimate contact with other women than with men. They also tend to include a very wide range of erotic expression, including "top/bottom" energy. In many shoots there's no body fluid exchange. (But, if there's body fluid exchange, people get tested beforehand. We're "health nuts" and have never had any problems whatsoever.)

Before the video session, you will be given the opportunity to meet the other model(s). You can then decide whether you're comfortable working with her (or them). And, who knows, you might end up becoming friends or lovers in real life -- it has happened a number of times...

The details of the scene will be decided by negotiation. Many possibilities exist. In general, we're aiming for an interaction between the models that goes beyond "purely mechanical acts," and includes powerful, authentic energy and a wide variety of erotic expression. We have some parameters we must follow, but within those parameters we'll be happy to accommodate your own fantasies and preferences.

If you're "testing the waters" about modeling, you can talk to past models and/or watch some of the many video interviews we have of past models telling their story. We can also do a non-commercial, no-expectations, little casting shoot or art shoot, to get you used to being in front of a camera (many discover for the first time that they love being there!)


I'm quite experienced, but your web site is primarily geared to first-timers. Anything specifically for me?

Yes. If you're used to "bang-bang" productions, or "robotic sex" on "automatic pilot," you need to understand that we want a more authentic energy and better filming. I think that you'll like our system much more, but it may take some getting used to. Please, be so kind to read through this entire web site, even though you might feel that you "know the ropes."

Can we just do photos instead of videos?

Sorry, not for this project. There will be photos taken, but the project is primarily about video. We are exploring a side project only involving photography, but the amount of money in it is far smaller. Contrary to popular belief, video is actually easier than photos (you don't have to worry about "posing" -- and will quickly get absorbed in the roleplay.)

I have a girlfriend who might be interested. Could I do a scene with her?

Yes! Please, have your girlfriend(s) read this web page. However, be warned that we've come across many people over-estimating how adventurous their girlfriends are; so, before you "volunteer" your partner, please straighten things out with them.

Will I be "tossed together" with a random stranger?

Based on past experience, most people are satisfied by a simple exchange of photos; however, if you'd like, you can be given the opportunity to talk to prospective co-stars, and decide if there's mutual comfort level.






WHEN / WHERE


How many sessions, and how long will they take?

One session (usually with the option of coming back for future shoots, if desired.) Generally, it lasts about 3.5 to 5+ hours, plus optional breaks, from the time cameras start rolling. Setup time takes about 1 hour. Prior to that, there will typically be 1 or 2 short meetings (including the first one) to get acquainted and hammer out all details.

Before the session, you'll get to meet other prospective models (unless you're planning to do a scene with your own girlfriend), and decide if you're quite comfortable with them. You may also get to meet some of our staff. We sometimes hold "get-to-meet-everyone" dinners or potlucks (attendance optional.)

What day of the week do you film? What if my schedule (from other jobs, etc.) is not flexible?

Filming sessions can take place on any day of the week, so that's never a problem to work around your existing schedule.

Don't quit that "day job" yet! But you might be able to soon -- some of our past models did... Katia, for example, became able to always sleep late and spend a good part of most days in leisure or pursuing her beloved artistic endeavors. And Kitty, a veteran of 5 past films, was able to open her own art center.

Where will the video shooting take place?

In a private home, in a comfortable neighborhood in Oakland. If you need rides, Ashley or one of our other assistants can pick you up and drop you off from BART.

What if I live far away from the San Francisco area?

It may be OK. We've had models "fly in" from far away. The model's fees may be high enough to cover your trip, and in some cases we'd be willing to offer an extra contribution towards your expenses. Didn't you always want to visit San Francisco, anyway (wink)? You could do that, and return home with more money than you left with! Not to mention incredible memories and stories for your friends...

Who else will be there?

Besides André, who will be directing and often acting, and any other model(s) you'll be working with, there will be two or more other women as the production assistants, camera crews and photographer (usually including Ashley and Sadie.)

Everyone gets to meet André beforehand, and many people meet Alyssa, too. Upon request, you can also talk to, or meet, other past models, or any of the assistants.

What will it be like?

A respectful, friendly and nurturing work environment will be maintained throughout. Creating such an environment has been a key element of the "mission" we have set for ourselves from the start. We'll "bend backwards" to make you feel at ease, appreciated, beautiful, sexy and pampered!

The directing and the preliminary meetings will be handled by André ; most women find it easy and comfortable to deal with him. Sometimes present at the first meetings is Alyssa, who nowadays handles many of the phone calls. She, Ashley and the other production assistants are all very personable, warm and friendly people.

Video shoots are well catered with plenty of beverages, food and snacks -- ranging from organic fruit to decadent dessert treats. (Vegan morsels available upon request.)

[André, who directs the videos, reports the following:]
“Something that the video sessions confirmed for me is that there's a grand beauty in sexual interaction. In addition to obviously being sexy, it is a lot more. I don't know exactly what the right word is: call it majestic, spiritual, transcendental or sublime, it's a profoundly beautiful event. Quite sad, to say the least, that it's so widely considered 'private' or 'shameful'.”

Do you need any more assistants?

Our needs for paid assistants are very variable, so feel free to contact us. Our assistant roles include camera crews, photographers, session/props managers, video editors (Adobe Premiere-based, with own PC), photo editors, web designers, cooks, masseuses, bondage furniture builders, "handy people", office workers, cleaners, make-up artists. We're willing to train people in some cases.

The positions that are most likely to be available in the near future are cleaners, bondage furniture builders and "handy people" (to build mechanical gadgets.)

All positions are P/T, on call, or as independent contractors.

We're always looking for "referrals", and offer a $100+ "finder's fee" for each person you refer to us who ends up actually being in a video. Details here.

Note: if you are a prospective model and are thinking of assisting in order to see what sessions are like, please keep in mind that assisting is a specialized track for people with a sincere and strong interest in it -- though some people have done both. Most of the time we're quite set in terms of assistants, and don't need new ones. The best system for you to get a sense of what sessions are like is to talk to past models. We can also do a non-commercial, no-expectations, little casting shoot or art shoot, to get you used to being in front of a camera (many discover for the first time that they love being there!)


WORRIED ?


But I'm REALLY SHY, and acting terrorizes me!

Being shy -- even super-shy -- is perfectly OK. That's the way quite a few of our past models were...

We like shy models -- they tend to be the bravest ones in the long term!

In particular, if you are shy but want "to do something about it," this could be a great opportunity... As several past models put it, "after having done this, I can now do anything!"

Katia, for example, can be painfully shy. But she found comfort in a book entitled "Exhibitionism for the Shy" (available at "Good Vibrations") and took the plunge... Like many other people, she discovered that she's less shy in front of the camera!! She has been in 10 films so far.

Lexine was nervous at her first film: her hands were almost dripping with sweat! But she did just fine, and came back for 3 more films.

In terms of acting, some past models have been accomplished actresses, while others could do little more than giggling!

Here's our "magic trick": we match roles to real-life personality. So, people who enjoy acting do more complex roles. People who are shy and/or can't act, simply play the roles of timid characters; in other words, they can just be themselves!

And, don't forget: we are professionals who know how to make people feel at ease. That's why we get so many first-timers...

What if my mother saw the video, and I’d die of embarrassment?

Uhmm, so your mother watches erotic videos?!? Seriously, though, concerns about privacy are very important to us. For starters, it’s rather hard to recognize anyone from a video, especially after a few years -- as appearances vary over time (within weeks for some people!)

Furthermore, there are gazillions of erotic videos out there. The odds of anyone you know running across the video featuring you are probably comparable to those of being hit by a meteorite!

If you are extremely concerned about privacy, you might consider a hairstyle that you’d never normally wear, or even hair color or a wig. We're afraid that dark sunglasses are not an option, but you could certainly use colored contacts. Tattoos and moles could be disguised with suitable make-up. Temporary tattoos, or even fake moles, might be used to further protect your privacy.

A possible disguise is a wig -- it makes a world of difference! One time, an acquaintance of one of the models came by, looking for her, and didn't recognize her with a wig on!!

A few other thoughts on the subject:

Basically, you're "a small fish in a huge ocean"... Unless you actively purse big-time stardom over many years (and very few succeed in that), privacy is simply NOT a problem. Anonymity is pretty much the standard state of affairs nowadays. The market is so mega-ultra-saturated that each person is the proverbial needle in the haystack!

Many prospective models initially make plans for disguises. But, when it is time for their film, very few actually bother with a disguise. Why? Because people get quite comfortable with the whole idea surprisingly quickly... You probably won't believe this right now -- until the same happens to you! And, after their first film, many wonder "Why doesn't everyone do this? Why didn't I do it sooner?"

How do I know you're not deranged axe-murderers?

Good question! The first meeting, handled by André, will always be at well-populated public places, such as cafes or restaurants, sometimes accompanied by Isabella or another female assistant. You can talk to Isabella beforehand, if you'd like to.

You may bring friends along to the initial meeting. You will never be asked to get into dark alleys, cars or houses. If we decide we're comfortable with each other, and that this project seems right for you, then you can meet several of the other women who have modeled, or who're considering it, or who will be assisting.

If we eventually decide that you'll model, you can have friends waiting outside. There'll be the other model(s) and at least 2 other women.

Can I bring along girlfriends/boyfriends/my mother, etc., to help me feel safer?

You can certainly bring them along to our planning meetings. During the shoot, it’ll have to be negotiated on a case-by-case basis. You can, of course, have friends waiting outside.

Can I first go to someone else’s session, just to watch what it’s like?

We don’t think that the other models would appreciate spectators, but occasionally prospective models have come as a "casual" production assistant. Unlike the trained and paid filming crew, a "casual" assistant is a volunteer position, with fewer responsibilities, and meant for those who are "testing the waters" for their own modeling.

However, we discourage that. Experience has shown that the best system is for you to talk to past models. We can also do a non-commercial, no-expectations, little casting shoot or art shoot, to get you used to being in front of a camera (many discover for the first time that they love being there!)

What will my friends think of me?

Not any differently, unless you elect to tell them!

If you are super-bold and come out to all your friends, you might well find your popularity increasing! And, quite possibly, learn more about your friends...

On the other hand, if you value prudence over flamboyance, you might consider our own personal approach :

Erotic modeling can indeed be harmful to friendships -- but usually not for the reasons you're thinking. After you discover the "easy lifestyle", you'll start thinking of your non-modeling female friends as foolish masochists who, incomprehensibly, get up at 6am and rot their life away for a miserable pay!

You might start getting bored when they cry over your shoulder about how much their work sucks. You'll want to shake them and yell, "What's wrong with you and your silly inhibitions? You are young only once!"


What will happen to the video/photos?

They are sold to an East-coast company that will handle the distribution, some of it possibly in Europe. Details of the business end vary over time.

What about medical concerns?

Some scenes -- including most first shoots -- involve no direct sexual contact (in the narrow sense of the word; i.e. no body fluids exchange.) Other scenes involve only female-female sexual contact, which is inherently the safest of all environments to start with. In addition, we'll work out between you and the other model(s) a plan that everyone will feel comfortable with.

If there's body fluid exchange, everyone will have recent medical testing for HIV and other STD's.

Is this an environment full of drugs, alcohol and smoking?

No drugs are allowed on the set -- strict policy. There's no heavy drinking: nothing more than a little wine, beer or wine coolers. Smoking is strongly discouraged, and only allowed on the balcony. (We actually convinced several past models to quit smoking!)

As a matter of fact, some of us are health freaks who insist on organic produce, even when used as dildos LOL

Will I still be able to run for office later on?

All this is perfectly legal. Hey, by contrast, Clinton smoked joints (not legal) -- and still got elected president! You might not receive a warm welcome in the Republican party, though… A few years ago, in Italy, a former sex-movie star ("Cicciolina") got elected to the Parliament. In 2003, 19 y.o. Ann Kristel Fure, whose erotic photos had been published in a magazine, got elected to public office in Norway (see http://pub.tv2.no/nettavisen/english/article136579.ece ) In both cases, the controversy helped them get elected...

If you run for office, we'll vote for you -- and so will all the people in your fan's club!

Seriously, quite a few of our past models worked with kids, or plan to become teachers, go to law school, etc. By the time you're 30 and beyond, it doesn't really matter what wild and crazy things you did in your 20's. Who doesn't do wild and crazy things in their late teens and 20's?!? Even George W. Bush did! You can still become a born-again, neo-conservative evangelical Republican later on, if you must.

At any rate, when you're 40+, so what if there's a video out there with a girl in makeup who looks somewhat like a younger version of you? That's no proof at all it was you! (And, of course, your video will be "lost" among the millions of other videos out there; in 20 years, there'll probably be billions...)

Did you know?

Sylvester Stallone, star of the box-office hits "Rocky" and "Rambo" (and appearing in many other popular movies, such as Woody Allen's "Bananas") started out his film career in a sex movie...

Traci Lords, who appeared in many Hollywood movies (such as a featured role in "Cry-Baby", a musical comedy starring Johnny Depp) also started out her film career in many sex movies...
If you look her up on netflix or other movie databases, you'll find dozens of screen credits. She also collected a long list of TV credits, from a role in the ABC mini-series "Stephen King's The Tommyknockers" to a recurring role on "Melrose Place" to a featured character in "Profiler." In addition, she produced a techno-pop musical recording, "1,000 Fires," which spawned a hit with "Control," which went to No. 2 on Billboard's dance chart in 1995.

What will I do about taxes? How can I explain this income to my parents, etc.?

Taxes are no problem. Everything is legit and perfectly legal. We have an info sheet about what to do at tax time. The bottom line: it's no different from getting money from a paid gig for a theater play and the like. In a number of cases, if the total income isn't too big, it's not even necessary to file!

If your parents do your taxes, we can simply build a "facade" of fashion modeling to explain the income. (We can take some fashion photos of you at another time for "proof"!)

Can I remain completely anonymous?

By law, everyone acting in an erotic film must provide proof of age, to be kept on file by the producer. Needless to say, your identity and any other information about you will remain absolutely confidential. Only a stage name will be used.

When you first contact us, you’re of course welcome to use a fictitious name (or choose a stage name right off the bat.)

Stage names are also a great way to explore various sides of oneself...

I really want to do this, but my significant other is having a fit. What can I do?

If we got $1 for every time we hear that, we'd be rich! Many women tell us, with great embarrassment, that they'll bow to their lover's will. Maybe couples' therapy would be a good idea...

If your relationship lasts "forever," our sincere congratulations on having found True Love, albeit a restrictive one; if it doesn't last (and restrictions are usually harmful to relationships), then some day you'll regain your freedom -- and you can then bill your ex for the significant loss of income! Realistically, recovering thousands of dollars of your lost income from an ex will be virtually impossible, so you might consider making them re-imburse your losses while you're still together...

Is your significant other a guy? We hear stories of young women kept in a state of poverty by freeloader boyfriends who are financial leeches and yet don't want their girlfriends to attain the financial rewards of erotic modeling. A potentially hidden issue, besides possessiveness, is the typical male insecurity about being with a woman who makes more money than he does.

Perhaps you can soften up your significant other with visions of romantic escapades to Tahiti with the money you can make from erotic modeling! (Failing that, how about a giant TV screen to watch the Super Bowl   LOL)

From past experience, significant others benefit on several counts! For starters, the romantic getaways and all the other things that the extra money makes possible (including having more free time.) Also, our models tend to learn new things from us (we dub our films "accelerated learning academy for young ladies"!) -- and several of those things typically make their way into their own personal lives, enriching the spice of their relationship ;)

We recommend that you contact us now anyway, even if for future reference. Many times we get calls from past prospective models, who had previously dropped out because of relationship problems -- happily announcing that they broke up and are free again!

Can you show me any previous work, or put me in touch with any past models?

Yes, definitely! You'll get to meet several of the wonderful women who have joined the project as models, assistants or both. However, because of the large number of applications we receive, we channel all the initial contacts through André, who's sometimes accompanied by Isabella in the initial meetings. After we have determined that there's a preliminary match between you and this project, you'll gain wide access to the other people.


A mini-interview with Claire (star of 2 past videos)

Claire is a college student who had just turned 19 when she starred in the first video we completed. It was her first time ever in an erotic production. At the end of the session, André took some "candid camera" footage of her taking a shower with Eva, the other model. It spontaneously turned into a mini-interview!

Claire: “This'll be like your documentary section. You can show this to all your potential models... [Hugs Eva] And, after, you get scrubbed by a beautiful girl! [...] That was rad -- I'm so proud of us!” [Starts singing: ] “Fairy tales can come true, it can happen to you... when you're young...”
“Ah, so now I don't have to ever be afraid of anything again because... I've pretty much done it all! [...] If you're showing this documentary portion to prospective models [...] The experience of having done something new, plus everything else, makes it worth it. So, don't chicken out!”

André: “OK -- and I'm not paying you to say this, right?!”

Claire: “No! You're not paying me to say this! You're also not paying me to shower with this beautiful girl -- it's one of the perks!” [Hugs Eva again] “Also, the vegan chocolate cake -- girls, André will take care of you!”
“Seriously though, André, if you have anybody who's thinking about modeling and they want to talk to somebody, give them my number and I'll talk to anybody.” [...]
“Oh, you know what's funny, though? It's that I feel really good right now.”

Eva: “Yeah, me too.”

Claire: “You know, I had a fear that at the end of it I might feel kind of dirty, or ashamed or something, but I don't -- I feel really good.”

André: “Didn't you say you went to Catholic school?”

Claire: “I did go to Catholic school.”

André: “So, they didn't teach you anything?! Maybe you have some message for them?”

Claire: “Tell the wonderful Catholics of [name omitted] Catholic school... today, I kissed a girl!”

André: “You only kissed her?”

Claire, laughing: “The rest will be available within the next few months, for your viewing pleasure!”

Who have you attracted to your project so far, and what are their motivations?

We are very pleased to report that we've attracted many friendly, warm, sex-positive and enthusiastic women, ranging from absolute first-timers to quite experienced. The vast majority are new to erotic video work; quite a few are new to any type of erotic work. Most are in their late teens or early 20's.

Clea, who was in two of our videos, made the following comment: "I'm excited to have an arena to be as sexy as I want to be!"

Katia, star of 10 videos, said, "How can you not feel sexy when you have people photographing, filming and paying you because they think you are?"

A performing-arts background seems to be common. Also, quite a few stories of people terminally bored at work, or who lost their job in the "dot com" bust.

A surprisingly large number of past models have been super-shy young women who like the idea of a safe, structured environment to overcome their shyness. (They tend to be especially happy, if not exuberant, after their film!)

Motivations, besides money, have included:
"Explore my sexuality", "Explore a fantasy", "Celebrate my sexual freedom", "Exhibitionism", "Curiosity", "Work on my body-image", "Make a sociopolitical statement", "An opportunity to meet other women", "Act out a 'persona' different from me", "Bask in the spotlight", "Have fun", "Get even with those who tried to repress my sexuality", "Try to stop life from getting too ordinary", "Enjoy breaking taboos", "Therapeutic for a repressed sex life", and "Tick off the right-wing conservatives!"

Sexual orientations range all over the spectrum, but the most common self-descriptions have been "bisexual", "pansexual", or "omnisexual". Other noteworthy responses:
"hypersexual", "a little of everything", "sexual", "hetero by experience, bi by interest", "50/50 100% bisexual", "I like what I like when I like it!", "polysexual", "heterosexual in experience, bi in fantasy, and hopefully reality!", "metasexual", "selective", "I like men and women", "attraction happens where it does", "bi and equally picky about both genders", "am I gay? straight? I'm just slutty!", "greedy... I like everyone: girls and boys", "bisexual poly-fetishist", "all over the board", "nonconformist", "try-sexual (try anything once)", "open minded", "pro-orgasm!"

Can I get into business aspects if I want to?

We'd love to make more sophisticated art movies, too, and are looking for producers for those. Please contact us for details.

How do you hope to do a video that will stand out from the crowd?

Our system involves careful filming and lots of flamboyance and playful imaginativeness. Furthermore, we believe that erotic charge derives as much or more from people's energy as it does from the "mechanical aspects"; therefore, careful choice of models and excellent rapport with them are of paramount importance to us. Also, as much as possible we plan to match roles to models, and to include a powerful variety of erotic expression.

Last, but definitely not least, we'll try to include some of your real-life fantasies and turn-on's...

Can I elect to be involved in the creative process of designing the scenes?

Yes, absolutely!

What if I'm potentially interested, but not ready for it now?

No problem. This project is ongoing. We can make contact now, and become acquainted "for future reference." Making contact now, even if not ready, will probably be better than putting the whole idea on a bottomless "to-do-at-a-later-date" pile!

However, it's not wise to count on us "always being there". We might go out of business, or move, or develop long waiting lists for modeling. Here's a sobering tale of procrastination: someone, who used to live in New York City, put off for years visiting the Twin Towers, rationalizing their procrastinating with "they'll always be there..." Furthermore, keep in mind that opportunities and earning potential drop very quickly with age.

There's no commitment in contacting us for information, or in having a first meeting. If you're a hyper-procrastinator (and we see lots!), please just talk to us, have a first meeting -- and "get it over with." Afterwards, you can make a more informed choice -- instead of trying to decide on incomplete information if this project is for you.

Also, you could make money by producing referrals. We currently offer a $100+ "finder's fee" for each woman who ends up in one of our videos. So, for example, if you send our way 10 women who end up modeling for us, that's $1,000 for you. Details here.


I read all this. Now, what are the next steps?

Please, contact André in any way you're most comfortable with. You're welcome to use a fictitious name. But, please, make sure to read all the information on this web site before you contact us. It will greatly reduce misunderstanding and incorrect expectations. Thank you.

You can call our voice mail and leave a message there :

BEST WAY TO CONTACT US: use this form

Alternatively, you’re welcome to send us e-mail :

Note: If you don't get a response, the odds are that your email address didn't work (it has happened!) or that you didn't say your phone number clearly. Please contact us again...

No commitment is expected at this stage. If you're still uncertain or feel timid, that's perfectly OK.

Some people prefer to first ask questions by email, and we can definitely do that.

After we finally talk on the phone (you can call us if you prefer), we can make plans to meet at a safe public place, such as a café or restaurant -- and you can bring friends along.

At the end of the meeting, if it appears that your participation in this project is right for you, we'll put you in touch with past or prospective models (unless you're planning to do a scene with your own girlfriend.) You can then also talk to, or meet, some of our assistants.

Each and every first meeting so far has been quite cordial, and in many cases very enthusiastic. Some people later emailed us comments such as "I can't believe how relaxed I was!"

We'll take one small step at a time. You’ll never be required to do anything you’re not comfortable with.

Thanks again for your interest, and for taking the time to read this page. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Blessings,

            

 

Erotic Productions as Self-Empowerment?

A socio-erotic manifest

How many people, including yourself, do you know who are creative but don't get to fully express their creativity because they are engaged in a futile struggle to make ends meet? Or because they wilt away in infinitely tedious jobs that drain their life energy?

And how many people have you known who possess great passions, such as for dance, art, performing, writing or poetry, but have slim or no prospects to ever make a living from them?

Welcome to "the club" then! We have watched countless friends suffer, and seen their lives slide into a downward spiral -- until they resigned themselves to leave the Bay Area.

We need to counteract the ugly pull of the unbearably mundane reality, or we all will be sucked into its dark abyss!

Perhaps we can team up to counteract that pull by producing extraordinary erotic creations that will be financially rewarding, in a warm, caring environment?
