I was more thinking that the girls would produce their own C4S content with other people they know through traditional porn scene work. I think the person you are referring to is talking about shooting with people derisively called “guys with cameras” in the industry — poorly funded “producers” that don’t have any other connection to the industry and of which several have been warned about specifically by performer and sometimes legal name on this site in the past two or three months. Before the days of self-produced porn “guys with cameras” were warned about as well, C4S and the like just make it easier for them to get porn chicklets to do scenes with them (some of these people just want to fuck the girls and post to C4S type sites to justify to the cops that they are fucking for business and not just tricking them into being their hookers). A performer has to vet unknown producers no matter what medium they use but C4S makes it easier for unscrupulous people to become “producers” (go read about Khan Tusion and the directors at Anabolic/Diabolic, they are barely around nowadays but a Google search should bring plenty up for your perusal) and use that status to essentially trick unsuspecting porn chickies to fuck them and essentially creating a situation where a john tricks a porn performing chick into being their hooker for the evening (and the performer is likely paid less than she would as a escort or street prostitute as a result).

Also, this site has five main reporters filing articles for this site, they have very different views on industry issues and subjects. Even when Mike was running this site he had other reporters filing articles to be published here. A couple of reporters even had direct access where they didn’t have to go through Mike to publish on here. I think nowadays all non-owner articles are submitted to an editor for approval and publishing on this site but editorial staff (probably one person) doesn’t seem to be requiring a certain political expressed opinion to have articles published. Obviously for the site to break even financially some subject matter had to change (Mike paid for this site mainly from his own money with little advertising), I wish this wasn’t the case but I am not stupid and understand the necessity of the changes — hell, I was an accounting professor for fucks sake and was also a contract banking compliance officer for two relatively local credit unions in later years so I understand business very well. He/she is even allowing press releases to be published nowadays (I think he/she has found a happy medium between Mike’s policy of almost no press releases and publishing everything submitted), I don’t want to see this site awash in hundreds of press releases a month but picking two or three good PRs a week to publish is appropriate.

Thing is, many of these manyvids/onlyfans girls won’t shoot with guys who are on those same platforms. The person who write for this site even tell girls not to shoot for clips4sale producers.

Karma, I agree that if I am paying $20 for a single scene I want it filmed with a decent camera and not a shaky cellphone camera. The shaky cellphone camera videos I see on YouTube (not a porn site, obviously) annoy the hell out of me!

That sounds nice except many of these content videos are shit. Most are shaky cell phone videos. If the girl is going to shoot her own content she will have to invest some $$$ in a decent camera and lighting.

Lena has a point. I still think doing some scenes for traditional porn companies is necessary for you to get your name out there and probably to make the cash to buy equipment for self production but if you can come up with the money to buy good 4K commercial use camera equipment and an appropriate tripod ($2500-$4000, your phone camera won’t work for this nowadays although a consumer grade 4K video camera may work for a few months, those are about $1000 but don’t expect them to hold up to eight hours a day of use for very long), a i5 or i7 computer with the appropriate graphics card for editing (and camming, about $1000), an appropriate computer monitor ($300 or so), hiring a cameraman to shoot your scenes ($250 a day or so) pay other performers their rate ($500-$1500 per person) to fuck you for posting on Clips 4 Sale, Only Fans, Fan Centro, etc. you should do it. You also need to take into account the fees these sites charge for facilitating your scene distribution. If you can talk other performers into a “content trade” situation (a few will do that, especially for performers they are friendly with, your traditional scenes and networking at porn industry events will help this) that might also be a way to start out producing independently but you has to remember that your performer partner(s) in the scene also sell it and that reduces your revenue from it (and you still need $4000-$5500 for the appropriate equipment to even consider self-production). Obviously doing streaming “cam” scenes on an appropriate company’s website is also a way to make money (you still need the computer, monitor and camera) but your name somehow needs to be out there (that is where your traditional porn scenes come in) and you need to publicize your camming activity on Twitter or another appropriate medium to make it work. You also need an attractive looking, uncluttered space and appropriate furniture to film in — necessitating an extra bedroom or other large room set aside and furnished for camming and scene filming.
