This is ridiculous and something I have been hearing producers complain about since precious few even knew what an "internet" was. Pay the models what you want to pay them and stop blaming others for paying more. This is still America and freedom to run your business the way you want is a sacred right of living in a capitalist society.

Here is :2 cents: so you can pay your models more.

The website I shoot for, the model is paid on a percentage basis. Was looking into getting some rather well known models for Playboy styled solo work and the prices they wanted were insane, near $1k for 3-4 sets and vids that would take no more than an hour to shoot. Then other girls I know wanting $1k for g/g and $1500 for b/g scenes....give me a fucking break.

In case these dumb whores havent noticed, we are in a recession right now. They should be more than thankful for $300 an hour while the average American makes $9 an hour doing actual WORK. But these girls scoff at anything under $600. I think its about time those of you who pay that kind of money say enough! Take $300, get naked or get the fuck out and I will find another hot college girl in need of money who will. I have a feeling the prices would start coming way down if people started doing that. There is FAR more supply than demand and it will only get worse.

This usually happens when she has a private and it pays way more than the shoot.

i agree to most of that, just one problem: my clients (usually) do not pay more per scene when a girl is really excellent. on rare occasions i can demand something extra when a girl is really expensive, but otherwise i get a fixed amount per scene no matter how much i pay to the girl. thats why we offer all girls the same money and they either work for that money or not. otherwise i would have to pay it out of my pocket - which i will not.

and we had it a lot of times that girls demanded insane amounts of money so that we had to refuse them. a few months later when they ran out of jobs they came back and worked for the standard rate

I didn't read any replies to this thread but you sound stupid. These girls don't have work lined up 40 fucking hours a week at any rate like the $9 an hour regular job shit your talking about.

Also, the average college girl wouldn't even think about doing any porn type anything unless you're talking about paying them ridiculous amounts of money. Like 10k-100k+ and then 99% of them still wouldn't do it because of moral values.

Bingo! I don?t ask for rates, I contact the girl and tell her what it pays. I?ve never been turned down for a shoot. We work out a convenient schedule and make the shoot happen.

I had one girl whose boy/girl rate was $7,000.00. Rather than turning down the shoot, she told me that she would do the scene for free if her boyfriend could be the male talent. Her rationale was that she did not want anyone to know that she worked for less than her rate. She did sign a model release showing compensation of $7,000.00.

Given the current state of the economy, rates have fallen considerably in porn valley.

filming the content is the easy part... girls are way over paid in LA.. I am yet to fuck a girl thats worth a grand.. and ive fucked tons of girls...

selling the product is harder than filming it...

if they don't want what we offer for a scene then wendys is always hiring.. they can find their own cab ride home.. I just throw em out.. the min they start with the whole.. well im worth this blah bullshit... maybe if you other producers grew some fucking balls and just told the bitch no.. what it comes down to is most of you are still doing this to get laid most of all... so you want pussy you pay for it... it's sad really cause these girls are already mentally unstable as it is so when you feed their heads that they are worth 4 figures they think they are worth 4 figures... they are not..

While I agree with you about the content being very important, it is amazing that the same girls are used in so many sites with soooo many stories... Yet the NEW girls on the scene Sell just as well and they get paid a lot less. The regular porn girls are the ones demanding that much.
