Okay, here is my story about “adult entertainment employment”.
So, I saw this thing online about how the adult industry is worth billions and will keep growing. Got me thinking, could I actually make some money there? I mean, who hasn’t seen those movies? Not me, of course. I decided to give it a shot and see what it was all about.
First, I tried to do some digging. Turns out, finding legit info on how to get into this industry is way harder than it looks. Most of what I found online was just fluff and didn’t tell me much. It’s like everyone’s talking about it, but nobody’s really explaining the process. I remember reading somewhere that technology has changed the industry a lot, so it is more accessible now, especially with VR and AR coming into play, but the way in is still pretty unclear.
I figured the best way was to just try and contact some of those adult studios directly. I sent out a bunch of emails, not really expecting much. It was a shot in the dark. I used some generic email template I found online and spruced it up a bit. I kept it short and sweet, not too pushy, just expressing interest and asking for guidance.
- Sent Emails: I probably sent like 50 emails to different studios.
- Waiting Game: Then came the waiting. It felt like forever.
- Got Some Replies: Surprisingly, a few actually got back to me.
Most of the replies were pretty standard, you know, “thanks for your interest” kind of stuff. But one studio was different. They sent a detailed response, explaining how they handle new talent. They talked about the importance of professionalism, safety, and a bunch of other stuff that I hadn’t even thought about. They outlined their process, which included an application form, an audition, and then some training if you make the cut.
I filled out their application, which was pretty straightforward. I think I did pretty well. Then, I went to a casting call. Man, was that nerve-wracking! There were so many people, and everyone seemed so confident. I tried to keep my cool and just be myself. I did what they asked, answered their questions, and then it was back to waiting.
The Outcome
A couple of weeks later, I got an email saying I made it to the next round! I was stoked but also super nervous. The next step was a trial shoot. It was intense, to say the least. There were cameras, lights, and a whole crew watching. I had to sign a bunch of papers, mostly legal stuff about what I was and wasn’t comfortable doing. I thought I totally bombed it. But a few days later, they offered me a gig. I started working with the studio, and it’s been a wild ride. They really emphasize consent and safety, which is cool. It’s not just about making movies; there’s a lot of behind-the-scenes stuff, like marketing and legal things. I was surprised at how organized it all is.
It’s definitely not what I expected, but it’s been an eye-opening experience. It’s a real job, with its own challenges and rewards. I won’t lie, it was a real eye-opener.
