Questions about streaming, cameras, and more
 
Hello folks, I'm new here and I'm currently in the process of setting up an adult website with some associates ( we're all first timers in the adult business ). I have several questions that I'm hoping some of you pros and more experienced members might be able to answer.

1) I read through the Paysites that do not let members download ( showthread.php?t=922292 ) thread and came to the conclusion that I will most likely stream the content in high def and allow low quality, very noticeably watermarked versions of the content for download. Can anyone tell me about what streaming setups they have, or even better, point me toward a tutorial on how you've setup your own secure streams?

2) I'm gonna need to buy a good HD capable camcorder. After looking at some guides on what to look for in a digital camcorder I think I have a general idea of what I need ( 1/3 inch image sensor or better, 12x optical zoom or better, 1080p progressive image, 24p - 30p framerate, ability to use lighting and mic accessories, probably with an internal hard drive for recording with the ability to also use memory chips/cards ). What kind of camcorders are you guys using for filming? Are there any camcorders you'd recommend? What type of camcorders would be good for a startup company?

3) I've read on a couple different sites about how to scout for talent for adult filming. Some of the suggestions I've heard were to put out wanted ads on various websites, visit strip clubs and ask some of the dancers, and even just asking people that you think would look good on camera. Where do you guys go to scout talent? Do you bother putting ads out, and if so, what are some places that usually have people that respond?

I'm sure I'll have more questions, but I'm going to stick with those for now. :)

Anything? Do's, don'ts, a link, a name to look up? I'm serious about getting this set up.

1. A paysite CMS (content management system) should be able to handle this for you. Just ask their support team. Check out ElevatedX, aWiz, or CARMA (also makes the NATS affiliate tracker).

2. Sounds good, might want to get a HD/SD hybrid cam it might not be easy for you to edit vids in HD. You will also probably need stage lighting equipment depending on where you plan to shoot.

3. Just put ads in the local paper, put up fliers at local college, should be able to find a model willing to do porn on one of the model directories like onemodelplace.com, I don't remember the name of the site for porn actors... something like adultwork.com, try escort directories also. Make some business cards and get the front-end of your website up with a link to a "Models Needed" section. Get a model photo/video release drafted up and take pics of their IDs and of them holding their ID and notarized model release would be even better. You might legally have to get STD check for actors depending on where you are.

Hello SamuraiBarbi,

While its not my area of expertise we do have an engineering guru on staff. He stays very busy but if you would like we could schedule a conference call and go over suggestions and help with what you are looking to do.

Beyond Caro.Net being the network home to AEBN we certainly get your product out over the web and the streaming engineer currently manages streaming for national radio stations, Bubba the Love Sponges live events, live pay-perviews, and a list of other events.

So hit me up directly and lets get the two of you talking, I am positive that we can offer you some great alternatives and solutions.
