  • Hi Guest - Did you know?
    Hot Topics is a Safe for Work (SFW) forum.

Ask the Pornographer (Mark III)

If not for a career as a Porn God, where do you think you're working life would have taken you?

I really don't know. Probably I'd be working in purchasing in Toronto, daily grind, paid my age plus 3 zeros (How does anyone survive making money like that?) and living for my two weeks of vacation a year. I'm kidding.

I don't know what I'd be doing but I'm sure I'd be working in the movie industry in some capacity.

I'm just glad I am where I am.
 
Do you do "talent scouting" on X-tube or whatever? By that I meant, watching a clip from X tube and thought "That guy is hot" and then proceeded to contact him about appearing on Jake Cruise?

I'm not a scout. I'm in marketing and production but I don't find models.

So I don't know how that's done.
 
No, I'm serious. We hire scouts and THEY don't share their trade secrets with us... info like that certainly doesn't filter back to me.

I'm baffled!

You must have heard something?
(although, I can understand if you can't share details with JUB. I used to have a job too, you know).

I picture a bearded guy with sunglasses on and a fishing hat standing next to the local half-pipe with Jake Cruise Business-cards in his pocket.
 
Were you ever shy, self-conscious, or withdrawn?

What were you like as a teenager?

What things interested you back then?
 
Were you ever shy, self-conscious, or withdrawn?

No. You know when you see little toddlers in public and people go up and say "Hi.. how you you?" and the kids just look at them blankly? I'd say "HI!! I'm GREAT! How you YOU?" and scare the shit out of them. My mom loved that.

What were you like as a teenager?

I got picked on a lot. I was a very free spirit in a town that didn't like individuals. They liked conformity and hated anything that was different. So they hated me. But I never gave in. I'd show up to school in drag just to make the squirm.


What things interested you back then?

I wanted to make movies. I wasn't planning on going into porn, exactly, but I did wan't to make dark, gritty, sexual and offensive stuff. I also wrote a script for a movie that opens with a teenager shooting up his school and then walking out of the school to death as the police outside waiting for him shoot him while he walks towards them smiling.. the movie then jumps backwards hour by hour to show why he was driven to snap and kill all the kids.
 
Our model scouts range in age from early 20s to mid 40s. Not sure if they hang out by the half pipe.

I once met a guy who'd had a few pics taken.
He said he was approached at one of the gay venues (the conversation took place in 1999, so I don't remember the details) in Amsterdam.
 
Here's a couple related questions (to each other):

A. Are you comfortable with/ enjoy being nude?

B. Do you think you would ever do a solo erotic photoshoot or video starring yourself? If yes, why, if no, why not?

C. Being around porno for work, have you found that you don't enjoy watching it anymore now that it's your career (if you ever watched it for pleasure in the first place)?
 
Jasun,

If the money in gay porn is so good to make, then why do so many gay porn stars get involved in the male escorting industry?

What is your opinion about the male escorting?

Do you think it's possible you could have more and longer behind the scenes videos posted on cocksuremen?
 
How old was the oldest gay virgin that you've met?

If you mean never had sex period... I think maybe about mid 20s. Never had sex with a guy... I've known men who came out in their 40s.

Ever TRULY seen a virgin getting fucked for the first time?

On a few shoots. Tex Gemmell didn't plan on bottoming in his first scene and Tristan Baldwin and I talked him into it. Took a while but he did like it. I've busted a few cherries in my day, too, including the guy who became my husband. I'm still the one guy who's been there.
 
A. Are you comfortable with/ enjoy being nude?

Sure. I don't tend to walk around naked except in the morning but then I'll walk about outside in my yard that I share with my neighbor. So I've walked into his house naked before.

B. Do you think you would ever do a solo erotic photoshoot or video starring yourself? If yes, why, if no, why not?

Um.. I mean... maybe. I don't like my body. I'm really short and my arms move strangely and my neck is attached in an odd way. I'm the only person who sees this but I'd not really like shooting a guy with my body so I wouldn't really want to shoot a video of myself. That said... I never say never.

C. Being around porno for work, have you found that you don't enjoy watching it anymore now that it's your career (if you ever watched it for pleasure in the first place)?

Oh, I still love watching porn and I've always been a huge fan. I still watch every Fratmen video going, I still watch all the videos my friends like Dirty Tony and Men AT Play shoot. I like Island Studs, The Guy Site, Butch Dixon...

I'm still a HUGE fan of Joe Gage, Chris Ward, Steven Scarborough, Brian Mills...

I also still love going through my old collection. Funny thing is that now that I'm friends with Dean Phoenix, I don't watch his movies anymore. Although he's one of the few that effects me like that. Most of my friends I can still watch. Andy Dill was a good friend of mine and I don't have any problem with watching his old movies. I miss Andy. He was one of the nicest guys I've ever met.

I also still have my collection of old physique books from the 50s. And my Tom of Finland.
 
If the money in gay porn is so good to make, then why do so many gay porn stars get involved in the male escorting industry?

Usually, it's the other way around... escorts will make porn movies to raise their profile and make more money escorting.

I mean, a lot fewer escort than you're lead to believe. The money is "good" but it's not really sustainable. Porn stars don't have enough regular work that they can make their sole living doing it. Most of the porn stars I work with have "real' jobs which provide their regular salaries and the porn pays for the car and the cruise and the big screen TV. Some guys, if they don't have regular jobs, will escort.. some like it. they travel a lot, they get wined and dined, they have experiences that most could never do.


What is your opinion about the male escorting?

Not something I support or oppose. I don't really care what anyone else chooses to do. It's not something I'd ever personally do, but I have a job that most people also wouldn't choose to do, and I like it a lot.

Do you think it's possible you could have more and longer behind the scenes videos posted on cocksuremen?

We released a 35-minute blooper reel a month ago because people had seen my videos on tube sites and many were almost angry that they weren't included with Cocksure Men's membership. We did that as a test. It was a hit.. we got lots of positive feedback and people are even asking for it on DVD.

We decided to make it a regular thing.. #2 comes out Tuesday. It's also about 35 minutes long and like last time it's mostly totally new and unseen stuff and it also includes one segment that's been on the tubes before (this time it's the pool party scene). some of it is hot... some is funny, some is just cool to see us making the scenes and showing how we do it.

I'll admit that it's not as easy thing to do. I edit those myself and I have to plow through HOURS of video to put them together. Editing stuff that happens by accident isn't easy... we dont' get a second take to choose from so it's gotta be just right.
 
B. Do you think you would ever do a solo erotic photoshoot or video starring yourself? If yes, why, if no, why not?

Um.. I mean... maybe. I don't like my body. I'm really short and my arms move strangely and my neck is attached in an odd way. I'm the only person who sees this but I'd not really like shooting a guy with my body so I wouldn't really want to shoot a video of myself. That said... I never say never.

You may not like your own body, but there are people wou would like to see you in action. I must admit, you have a cute face and a great personality. So why don't you give a shot? ;)

Now my (second) question: What type of models are hard to find in the business? Could you also give some names to get a better thought about it?
