Adult Film/Finding models

Question
How do adult film directors that are starting out, find models?

Answer
Hi Chad

Many will attempt to advertise on sites such as craigslist.com, xpeeps.com or backpage.com however; they rarely see any positive results as the quality of talent available through such sites is often very undesirable. Most of he girls who advertise or answer ads on such sites, do so on a whim and often back out at the last minute or never bother to return your messages at all.

Most reputable producers will use an Adult Talent Agency. Agency girls are simply more reliable, dedicated to their work and know exactly what is expected of them when they arrive at a shoot. They show up with all the required paperwork in hand ready to start filming. You just can't go wrong using an Agency.

People who are just starting out with production also need to remember 2 things:

1:    Their films MUST be in compliance with USC Title 18 Section 2257 and CFR Title 28 Part 75. Failure to do so will result in Federal charges and serious jail time.

2:  California is the ONLY place in the United States where a person can legally be hired to have sex for the purpose of producing an Adult Film, and then only after obtaining the required permit. Production in any other (and yes this does include Florida) state can lead to charges related to prostitution and/or pandering.
