    How to shoot better porn today.

    As a follow up to my epic thread "It's harder to shoot porn today than it was back in the old days." I thought it would be good to share some of the things I've picked up over the years.

    All can be done for low costs and adapted to most niches.

    No help here on cameras to buy, lighting info will be basic and editing basic as well.

    It will include advice on creating a product that can market itself. Marketing goes so far beyond where to post and sheep herding surfers to a site it's hardly included in the marketing tuition. It's like telling a telephone salesman to pick up a phone and make more phone calls.

    So that's where I will start.

        Decided to start here to give the trolls their food.

        Creating content for marketing.

        So many sites think the way to create a sample is to take it from the scene they just shot. Seen a few with samples specifically shot for marketing, not many. So here how to do it the "Markham" way.

        It needs to be adapted to the niche, so the shooter will need to think of how to adapt it. To his needs.

        Some models have loads of on screen presence, they light up on seeing a camera, get a kick from it and it shows. They need to be real, in the sense that they can't do the same old LA valley porn girl act that tends to look all the same after a while. These are the girls to use for this project.

        For this I will use the name Sandra.

        Sit down and think who Sandra is, what she's like and how she will come across. Then shape an idea for the sample. It can be her walking through a park, voice over later or a radio mike. She needs to talk. Sandra has to point out why she's worth a sign up, without direct selling. It needs to be real.

        Then BTS, in the shower, make up, etc. Then clips from the scene, or not for softer sites like Youtube. Then an exhausted girl sitting on a sofa sweating and grinning.

        The idea is to create a lure, not show the whole package. It has to be about her more than the scene. Today there are tons of characterless models on 1,000s of Tubes. This is about selling Sandra. Then pointing to where she is.

        Also if a girl can talk about sex, shoot her talking about sex. How she approaches it, what she likes best, why she likes it, how she does it, where she does it and everything else the shooter can think of. She can of course refer to a scene where she did the sex she liked.

        Shooting a hardcore sample clip is easy. This one is for my troll friend Ryan. It's very nice to see a girl giving her husband a BJ on her sample clip. but it's been done to fucking death, buried, dug up again, rehashed and cremated. I was shooting this 20 years ago.

        Get her to talk to the camera about why she loves a cock in her mouth, as she has the cock in front of her face. How she gives head with a small demo, does she like 69, does she like to share a cock with another girl, does she like it as she feels the cock swell and grow in her mouth, how she feels as she senses the guy is about to cum, can she deep throat, tips on how to give a good BJ. And what it's like for her as a man explodes in her mouth or on her face.

        This can be done for just about every singe sex act. Don't over do it, we don't want the sample satisfying the need to buy. It's a sample taste not a full dinner. It needs to leave the viewer intrigued and wanting more. Then closing him on how to get more.

        This kind of sample can be updated.

        And this scratched the surface, it could be a whole page. But you need to talk to me or figure it out for yourself.

            Brian advises roses to improve a scene, so why not a cactus?

            Sorry BM if it wasn't you, it was someone.

            And always remember a good porn scene generating a good erection depends on the cost of the sofa. Where's that troll and his brilliant ideas.

              Make sure the girl can get wet and isn't dead behind the eyes, scared or uncomfortable with the creepy old pervert filming her.

                  This is the problem. He thinks it is an "award".

                    I actually felt a little bad for him when he was standing there in his cheap suit holding the award and beaming like he just won an Oscar.

                    To work in an industry for so long and only be known as a useless troll must be devastating and is probably hitting rock bottom.

                      Imagine designing a tour with content created specifically for the tour.

                      As you can see idiot trolls need feeding.

                      So it goodbye to epitome.

                        He actually started 2 separate threads on another board to announce his 'achievement'

                          It wasn't a suit. The jacket and trousers were different materials. He couldn't even afford a suit.



                          Hey Paul, where is an example of this intro video marketing genius idea? You've made one right? Cos it's not on any of your sites.

                          I'm confused.

                          Surely you have an example?

                          LOL

                            Maybe Paul meant to use this as a marketing video for a tour



                            This is for his new site "Dirty Old Man Makes Teen Clearly Uncomfortable By Touching Her Without Her Permission".

                            See how she pretends to smile at his blunt sexual advances? See how she loves the attention the gnarly handed old perv gives her.

                            I bet she can't wait for him to talk to her about his erection, as he advices.

                            Thanks for the masterclass Paul! You're a GENIUS troll.
