As already stated many times this niche is a completely different world compared to the usual pornographic content. Throw your whole idea of what involves being a producer out the window.

Thank you. On another thread put up by Fiddler I explained to shooters how to make $4,000 from a day shooting this content. I've been shooting "readers wives" which is another name for Exgf content for over 30 years now. Since 1990 for the mags, each set of 20 pics makes about $500. Had a check last week from a magazine publisher and will get another one next week. It's content I still own and all 2257 compliant. Yes some of it's dated. Like everyone who produces for decades content gets dated.
Can I shoot it today? Well I'm not shooting at all, but if I were I would do this content on a casting. Along with the other content we shot.
Is it worth shooting on a casting that 10 girls attend? Yes.
Is it worth shooting as a stand alone project for a days work? No unless you're scraping for work. Or the buyers are paying proper money for the shoot and the prices I've seen quoted for it leads me to say no.
Is it worth shooting a scene at the end of a days shoot? The last price I saw offered was $150 for a set and video. I suppose if you need $150, it takes 20 minutes and don't pay out any extra for it. It's not bad. But this shows why so many scream it's not right or asking for the content.
