Question What would you suggest to a person to do to get started in building their own adult site? IE: courses,degree. Also, if a person lives in a state other than California, how could a person try to make it legal to shoot adult content in their state?
Answer Jamie,
I would first advise picking up the guide found at www.theadultbusinessformula.com. This will answer many of your questions about how to get started.
Filming outside of California is trickier. I have posted several times about the legalities of producing adult content outside of California, so feel free to peruse my past posts. If you still have further questions about it, feel free to contact me through my website at www.adultwebsitelawyer.com.
