I wasn't talking to you brerbear. But if you want to know why you are a self-righteous bully then transfer your post to the Off-Topic Forum and I'll explain it to you there.

Hello Gemma,

Can I say, please take peoples advice regarding Fiona Cooper aka Phil Sutcliffe.

I have worked for him 4 times and know exactly what he's like.
My 4th DVD is yet to be released and there certainly won't be another one. Lets just say that after spending a week with him to film the 4th DVD in Mallorca, i'd had enough and told him exactly what I thought!

Models can only take so much.

Just be aware of people and take care,

All genuine Photographers and Models with in the industry, stick together!

I wish you luck !wink!

I was the first one to make a comment and was going to leave it there, but if you look at the the amount of comments that have been made I think it warrants me getting on my high horse again!

If any aspiring models are reading these forums then let's hope they have the common sense to see what is right and what is WRONG!!!

I make no apologies for what I am about to say, but as far as I'm concerned "Once a C##T, always a C##t!!"

If any models are wondering why other producers are so quick to comment on rogue individuals, it is not through jealousy, but through a genuine desire to make this industry safe and enjoyable for EVERYONE!!

I will forgo this oppotunity to chastise individuals who condone certain operators. However I would advise you to think wisely before giving a personal recommendation to someone who may be new to the industry and naive in it's expectations

I'm not a producer, only yer average TOG.
Also I don't know the person we are discussing here personally so can't comment on that.

What I would though is give some very basic "safety" advice to ALL models.

Check out anyone who asks you to work for them as thoroughly as you possibly can and if you are not happy, forget the money, give them a miss.

It never ceases to amaze me how naieve some girls can be. Do models never talk to other models or photographers? Do you never research any work you're about to do? Would a girl in any other line of business go abroad with someone they don't know without a clue about them?

For goodness sake Louise, Myself and Marlowe were astounded to hear that you were going abroad with Sooty. Even Frankie was amazed when I told her. Interestingly enough Frankie has been back for more over at FC towers, and even had a better time than before.

So why did she have a better time and you didn't? (rumours about me hanging him off a bridge with a gun to his head are, er... rumours) Do you think it could have anything to do with the fact that you have recently advertised an interest in having sex on camera? I bet the offers started flooding in. But, does the fact that you'll now take penetration by a male for public viewing mean you don't give a thought for what situation you put yourself in?

After all that's been said on this subject how come there are models who don't know about this? We all work in the same industry. We all know about it, how come there are still models with years of experience who don't? Having said that, how many models do we know that totally disregard any of our safety advice, and do it anyway.

Ok, many do know, and overlook it for money. And that's why he'll go on and on, happy as you like. Because the girls let him. People (especially ones with children) always seem to have an overwhelming hatred for sex offenders. Unless they're models it would seem. As soon as Sooty waves his magic wad at them they're on the phone to the babysitter and packing an overnight bag.

As long as he has the money he has the girls. Well, 99 per cent of them at least.

Spending a week with him? -in Mallorca?? -to film an hour's dvd???

Don't they teach ladies anything in porn-school nowadays? (...banging my head against wall in exasperation)

Its the adult industry innit it

Given the nature of the employment you've got to expect you'll have plenty of risk versus reward takers,desperates who will do anything for the money
and those who place ethics above money

I'm sure if you posed a similar scenerio in another employment place many
individuals would take the cash & turn a blind eye

In the end I think your right,he who bids highest no matter the reputation will get his way

Still it don't matter to me no more as I don't buy any of it,not that I bought very much of it(thanks to forumites like JJ & Magoo)

cheers
