"In the end of the day, I have every faith in the UK production companies and I'm sure they will find a way to break free."
Ah the first time I herd that was from Steve Peters of Rage Video back in 80 blahblah. I last saw him in the UK at Erotica 02 and he was marvelling at how much gag em & shag em was being created.
If the cream always floats to the top, why do we look to the bottom of the cup!

i agree terry....perhaps we should choose a venue away from the immediate glare of erotica.
we should try to treat this as a possibly ongoing business forum to discuss issues of health , distribution ,opportunity and all areas of mutual interest....
there are so many forces lined up against us as a business...we cant fight them alone....
i agree with me old mate zane from wankstar... we must start to speak with a common voice....the government...ofcom...the bbfc...mail order....online selling.....to name but a few...these are all agents that we deal with that are virtually invisible in other territories...but effect our business so badly...
we have to get organised!
this is not an exercise in exclusion....this is about an attempt to step forward for all of us...lets meet each other and do some beer...but lets get serious..and it starts with us....producers!

The great thing about the UK adult industry is that we are prepared to talk/discuss biz openly unlike the States. When I went to Internext twice in 2001, I was surprised at the most stupid things that US webmasters etc. kept secret for fear of someone else using or doing something with the info.
Most producers in the UK do not have the backing to produce US quality films and this is not a put down but a fact. If the meeting produces results of people starting on joint productions, I can see a major breakthrough in what the UK can really produce.
Put together the guy with the best story lines, the best cameraman and editor and I can see unrivalled products being made.

Well said Joe A, that is something that i have been thinking about for some time a joint venture in making a good British classic porn film and yes it will cost money and im prepaired to put some up if others are also prepaired to do so, other types of filmakers have to raise funds to get their projects off the ground so why shouldnt the adult industry lets hope we can lay some foundations at erotica.

It's a no lose situation, each production house puts in X investment in return for Y.
Even if everyone put in something like ?500, it only takes 20 investors to give you a ?10,000 budget which I assume would be enough to give you a good quality production.
Having everyone collaborating in this way would make things so much easier with regards to studios, equipment, crew and models. You could vote on who you think is best suited to direct, produce, film etc so you know you're getting the best in the UK scene.
It's in each production house's interest to market and distribute the product as they are looking for a large return on their initial investment.
I'd even be happy to throw a few hundred quid at something I believe will be groundbreaking, and if it doesn't succeed I'll sell my vital organs to medical science.

Well done Blu like you said i dont think there is much downside in investing in this type of venture provided its done right, and wouldnt those who invested feel really good if the film took of in a big way knowing that you was one of those who pioneered it, best start thinking of a script.

PLOT AND SCRIPT FOR NEW UK BLOCKBUSTER:
Plot:
A male musician gets abducted by a dozen glamour models and used as a slave to quench their sexual appetites.
No matter how hard he tries to refuse, he keeps getting plied with Stella Artois and forced to perform acts of sexual degradation that would make his mates in the pub squirm with discomfort and unease. He finally escapes through the upstairs bathroom window after weaving a rope from their discarded pubic hair shavings and goes home for a wank to calm down.
Script Sample:
(Musician bloke is lured into posh flat in London with the promise of a major record deal)
Musician bloke; Gosh, this is a bit of a predicament!
Glam Model 1; Shut up and get it up!
Musician bloke; I do believe I'm being molested!
Glam Model 1; Do what you're told and it'll all be over soon
Musician bloke; What do I have to do then?
Glam Model 1; Well to start with you have to fuck me....
Glam Model 2; Then me...
Glam Model 3; Then me...
Glam Model 4; Then me...
Glam Model 5; Then me...
Glam Model 6; Then me...
Glam Model 7; Then me...
Glam Model 8; Then me...
Glam Model 9; Then me...
Glam Model 10; Then me...
Glam Model 11; Then me...
Glam Model 12; Then me...
Musician bloke; Bollocks
(Cries for help are muffled by Glam Model 1 sitting on Musician blokes face)
Guaranteed best seller I feel.

I agree Terry,
I would be there, being fairly new to the industry but already knowing many of the guys already posted on this thread.
There seems to be a lot of common sense being spoken here
