Just another male trying to find his way in!

Hi guys,

I'm sure you must be bored of people like me, another bloke wanting to 'live the dream' of becoming a male porn star, but I guess hopefully I'm a little different.

I don't expect to find this easy nor do I expect I will make a lot, if any at all money out of this, but I just fancied giving it a go and hopefully having some fun and meeting some cool people!

Anyways I don't know if anyone is interested in reading a little more about me or just want me to get to the point, but some more is coming just so you can see I'm a bit different from the 'Ima fit bloke luking 2b a pornstar gimmie a job' people,
For starters I'm a good-looking, well educated 23 year old, (I've got a degree in mathematics don't ya know!), with a good attitude and good sense of humour, I realise from having read this forum a fair few times now that it is highly unlikely that anyone is likely to offer me a job.

However, like I said I don't really expect any money to come from this and am more than willing to work for free even if it means losing some money.

I am currently based in Birmingham City Centre, just off Broad Street, and wonder if there are any agencies that may help me find some work in B'ham?

Also having read this forum I seem to remember some people saying that the male in question could be better off paying for the entire shoot just to gain a portfolio. This would be something I would be willing to have a go at in order to find further work but have no idea as to the total cost involved, so any figures with some breakdown of how it's worked out would be brilliant just so I know what I would need to organise as well as pay!


Thanks for reading all of this, if by any chance you are interested or could find something for me feel free to contact me via e-mail on jamiechuter@hotmail.com and I'll be willing to send you some pic's of me, and answer any questions you have!

Thanks, hopefully!
James

Your own hardcore portfolio "see, yes I can" shoot.

I can set this up with a studio and this is how it works:-

350 for the model, plus her travel. (?20 - ?50 depending on location)
150 for the studio (inc services of owner as stills photographer)
150 for my services as video cameraman and editor - turn shoot into showreel. Plus travel. (?30 for usual studio).

If using my usual studio, deposit of studio and model fee payable in advance, to the studio. Rest settled on the day.

This is to deal with all the timewasting idiots. Interestingly since I started this approach NO ONE has actually followed through with the deposit, which is fine by me.

Can you do it cheaper? Yes. But if you think a POV with a girl in her bedroom will get you in, forget it.

Actually doing it my way won't be sure to get you in, but it does show you are serious, which is what you need to start with.

Check out the male auditions fiasco for more info - guys had the chance for 150 and they blew it.

PS - you'll need to be willing to travel all England if you are serious.

The male auditions a fiasco???? Well ok it was but....Not really either.

We did manage it in 2007 and responded to demand in 2008 (40 blokes wanted it and 2 actually paid and did it) and the fact it didnt come off as I would have hoped told me that all these chancers wanting a free shag at the expense of someone else really said more for why the industry is the way it is.

However, there are those who are willing to give guys like JRC a fair crack of the whip at a fraction of that cost. Any man willing to put his money where his willy is deserves the time of day

Give Walpole a call on 0208-543-9090. Tell em Terry sent you.

Yes - it was the most recent one I was thinking of. Not on the organisers side (sterling work) but, well 40 "I want to do this" and only 2 actually followed through.

As to my costs, they are top end because I don't want my time wasted and the GUY gets the paperwork and owns the material.

Moral - when someone organises an effective low cost opportunity for new guys, TAKE IT.

Good luck for the 2009 auditions Terry - maybe ref my ranty one when you do, so that guys see just what good value it is.

Thanks Paul but i wont be planning anything for 2009 where auditions are concerned. Ive heard of 2 other people attempting to do it but as yet I have no idea of their results.

I will be channelling my efforts into other areas not specifically adult next year.

Hi jrc

If you want to team up and see if we can find someone who would be willing to do a folio for us both as to lower the individual cost I'd be deffo up for this, even if its only a small reduction each its a good start.

cheers bud

A peice of advice. Get yourself a stunning looking woman and 'bingo' everyone will use you - just don't limit who you both work with (meaning each other).

dave has got a point there ;)
my "partner" got inte the scandinavian part of the buisness together with me and not long after he was shooting as much as me if not even more...

and I'm pretty sure he wouldnt have got in otherwise, sure he is a good looker, but quite skinny and alternative looking... however as soon as he was in he has been very appreciated...

and to you guys looking to get in... this is a fucking awesome "job" but be prepared to work a lot... learn selfcontrol, make friends with that cock of yours as you gonna need to get it working in a lot of obcsure situations :) but at the same time, now I dont know what its like in the UK, but over here there is always a lack of guys that actually can perform...

have a great new year
