If you want to know about porn, I used to live in Porn Valley, and know many, many things about the US sex industry. I am friends with several of the actors and actresses, and am also familiar with all adult publications and foreign x-rated media.

Because I know the business and lots of the people in it, but am not biased for or against it since I have no direct involvement in it, I am a very good person to ask about it.

If you have photos, send them to foxelipsus@yahoo.com and I will tell you what I think your chances are of making it in porn, and where I think you should go to try and get into the industry. Male and female photos are accepted.


Experience
Movies, magazines, actors, actresses, pornstars, directors; whatever it is that you are wondering about, I can help you. Please be as specific as possible. I've been involved with the industry and I know the sex side of it intimately.

Also, I am an expert here on "great sex", "oral sex", and "sex problems".....I have had many sexual experiences with women from many nations. I began at an early age, and along the way found many amazing methods for pleasuring women. I have learned from men and women all over the world, and I am familiar with all common sexual acts, problems and queries. This kind of advice could change your life, whether you are male or female.

My favourite thing in the world is performing oral. Over the years, I have perfected mindblowing techniques. Every woman and man is different, but there are things you should know that will DRIVE YOUR PARTNER CRAZY! Write to me and find out... this could change your life and rock your world...

I love hearing back from people who've had amazing experiences because of my advice. Once in awhile, I love it when gorgeous women write for advice and end up asking me for a personal "demonstration" :-) I'm completely serious.

I'm the lead singer of an up and coming rock band. As a way of saying thankyou, please have a quick listen to the music. It is similar to Coldplay, U2, Keane, Tears For Fears, Depeche Mode, New Order, and Pet Shop Boys, also George Michael. You can see my pictures and hear my music at http://www.elipsus.net or click here to check Elipsus out! ... also you can listen to songs on our Press Kit and definitely, you must add me on myspace so I can help you faster and directly if you need it. To all sexy people: when I have time, I am very much available for fun with sexy partners. I don't charge ;) haha.

I'd also like to meet some evil dominant bitchy and assertive women, 'cause I'm usually the one who's in control and with all the power. It's fun but not ALL the time. :-) I like inexperienced girls just fine, but my favourites are very promiscuous, and very oversexed women. Women who love to have sex as much as I do, and do it just for fun, like I do.

Subject: How much do male porn actors make and...

Question
How much do male porn actors make, and how are they paid? I mean when you first get interviewed, do they pay by the inch, or by how attractive you are in general or by how much prior "profesional" experience you have in the industry. Do you get paid royalties for every dvd sold or every pay per view porn site visited? The reason I'm asking is that I'm just getting my feet wet in this business and thus far I've recieved a few "low-ball" offers and one offer where I could make over $1,000.00 per scene; but I have no frame of referenc to know what I should be getting for my perfomance.  If you would rather call I can be reached at (919)805-4166

Answer
James... you can make anything from $50 to $1500 per scene. You get paid per scene, and nothing more. No royalties, no inches, nothing to do with your attractiveness.

Here are some more ideas about how to get involved.

Getting into the porn industry is very very difficult if you are a man. You must be able to get it up, keep it up, and then cum within 2 or 3 minutes of being asked. That is a given. You have to be at least 7 inches and very thick, preferably over eight. You have to be in some kind of physical shape, and you have to have stamina. You have to be willing to work with any girl in any situation, and be prepared for stop-start sex.

Sending pictures will get you nowhere. You have to actually GO to the studios and introduce yourself and then they will take naked polaroids of you and get back to you. But even then, your chances are minimal.

There is always a market for porn actors, regardless of your background and personal requirements, but at the same time you have to have (a) talent, (b) luck, and (c) you must be in a good location. New York, Miami, San Fran, London, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Prague, Budapest, Montreal, Toronto, Vegas, even Minneapolis all have decent porn-producing studios, but 95% of the top adult movies in the world today are produced in Porn Valley. That is the San Fernando Valley in NorthWest Los Angeles, California. If you don't live in or near that valley, your chances are automatically significantly smaller.

Once you're in the Valley, go to VCA Platinum, Elegant Angel, Metro or Wicked (in Chatsworth), Vivid (in Van Nuys) or Sin City (in Canoga Park). But as I said, your chances of getting hired as part of a walk-in are extremely low.

If you're looking for low-budget internet porn jobs, they are out there, and searching on yahoo and google and excite can be productive. Instead of looking for advertised jobs, look for actual sites which offer the kinds of porn you'd like to be involved in and think you have a chance of being involved in). Then, make sure the porn is made by and for the website itself, then contact the webmasters and owners of the site and try and strike up a negotiation for an appearance in a movie for them. Of course, you need to have your photographs and details online.

Now assuming you go to the Valley, or somewhere similar, the best advice is always to find a stunning girl who wants to be a pornstar, and go to a studio with her. The girl should specify that she wants to work with you and the - ouila - you have a job. They'll always hire a hot girl, and if she's only willing to work with you, you just received a free ticket into porn superstardom.

If you're looking to do gay porn, the girl is unneccessary and it will be ten times easier for you to get a job. Gay porn stars are always needed and if you're willing to do that, unless you're completely unattractive to most men, you will get work in LA.

The old/young/kinky/hardcore thing is vital, especially if you are not bringing a new female into the industry, as they call it. You have to be willing to do ANYTHING and they will often start you off on something gross. Naturally, you'll have to perform very well in your first few movies particularly, and then you'll also have to work for small amounts until you're well known.

If you're thinking of mainstream acting or what not, you almost certainly will be exposed by the paparazzi. Once you do porn, your ENTERTAINMENT career is permanently red-flagged. Just come up with an alias and make it clear that your identity is to be kept a secret. Many pornstars do that.

If you're looking to get into gay porn in particular, it's simple. Move to LA. Go to the gay porn studios (they're in the book, they're all over the place), and walk right in and audition. They'll know within five minutes if you're what they're looking for and they're ALWAYS hiring.

Agents and agencies are sometimes OK but usually not, be very careful. The best thing to do is to write to a few male porn stars and ask them how they got involved, and how to get involved, agency/agent/studio wise. They'll tell you. It will probably even be in their online bios.

If you have a girl with you, and she's hot, and she wants to do porn with you, I suggest you go to JIM SOUTH at World Modelling on Van Nuys Boulevard in Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles, California. He's in the phone book.

Anyway... bottom line is... if you like the sun, go to Los Angeles. If you don't, go to Germany, the Czech Republic or Hungary. Because you're not going to find work anywhere else unless a miracle happens.

Good luck and I hope to see you slamming your cock into Taylor Rain's ass in the near future.
