About christina Cicchelli Expertise if you are seeking information on how to break into the adult industry, how to use pornography to enhance your sex life, how to find pornography that turns you on, and also how to make a living as an adult performer - then I'm the lady to speak to!
Getting into the adult industry can be easy, but to survive in the industry and find the best direction for yourself in this field is essential. As a former porn actress, I understand the pitfalls and successes that the porn industry has to offer. Pornography is a business, one that is patronized by a majority of us - whether it's by downloading a piece of an adult movie or buying a book by Jenna Jameson. You, too, can become a part of this industry. But, avoiding the mistakes and scams will make it easier for you. Also, knowing the pay rate and how to successfully chart your career will help you stay focused while having fun on set.
For those not interested in getting into porn, you might want to consider how adult films can help your sex life. Maybe you're searching for the right type of smut to satisfy you and/or your lover for a night, or maybe you want to make a private movie of your own. Contact me for help and guidance.
PLEASE DON'T ASK ME ABOUT LEGALITIES, LICENSES, PERMITS, OR ABOUT WHAT YOU LEGALLY NEED TO START YOUR OWN PORN BUSINESS -- i will prove unhelpful. Sorry.

You'll also need to consider the following issues:
-What permits will you need to film, sell, and distribute your content
-What codes and rules does your website need to adhere to - a big one is the 2257 compliance that ensures your models are of age and you can verify by providing legal documents whenever requested. This is a must!
-How will you build a fair and legal model release form? How will you keep track of these documents?
You can do the research yourself but what may be easier is to have a lawyer provide you with the necessary tools that will make your business legitimate and legally operated. There are other experts on this site who may be able to recommend attorneys and provide you with extra tips.
