I wanna post something even though I think nothing is gonna come of it and nothing is gonna change, nor do I have any idea what to do, so this is for no other reason then for posterity:
The overall health of the mainstream porn industry is at an all time low. We are at red alert and I know a bunch of producers that have either been let go from the companies they shoot for or massively scaled back in their workload. Companies are shooting less and only shooting a select group of talent, and for the organized industry we have it’s not sustainable.
The thing is that it becomes a compounding problem. If there’s no work for the producer/directors, theres locations not being booked, PAs and crew not being paid, talent not shooting so they have to leave the major studio hubs, then agents not able to pay their bills so no new talent coming in.
The same thing happened to the mainstream Hollywood film industry and it’s been well documented.
Like I said at the start; I don’t have any answers for what to do. I just want to publicly sound the alarm so maybe people smarter then me can think of something to do. Because the way things are going, it’s not looking good for 2027
