Every person who got into porn has a unique story. Some found their way through contacting an agency. Some found their way in through a friend or someone they were sleeping with. I crawled my way in through the late Chico “Wanker” Wang. Wanker was the old webmaster at a place called Extreme Associates. They…
Not really. Well, except for all those Minion scenes, I was always the shy guy. On and off set. I wasn’t getting laid a whole lot before entering the industry in 2003. I guess my weight held me back, and my self-esteem suffered as a result. But that’s not to say I didn’t get my…
There’s something an editor can always notice when cutting a scene: talent. I’ve mentally blocked out scenes where the female performer looks as if she’d rather be anywhere but set. A bake sale. The line at her local DMV. Anywhere. Those ladies typically don’t last long, and even the most hardcore of porn fans won’t…
Everyone in the adult industry has a story about how they got in. Mine’s a little different. I’ve been a fan of adult films since at least middle school. While other kids were talking about sports stats or what was going on in the world, I was more focused on what was happening in adult…
If you spend enough time in any field, you’ll inevitably experience the loss of those around you. Simply put, the longer you live, the more likely it is that people in your life will pass away. I began working in this industry in late 2003, and over the years, I’ve lost touch with many colleagues…
From 2004 to 2006, I appeared in roughly 225 adult film scenes. Over time, many of the performers I worked with have passed away, and I don’t remember every scene I shot during that period. However, one production that still stands out clearly in my memory is my time working with Haley Paige. At the…
The beauty above is Artemisia Love, the latest update at TheDickSuckers Like many who used Adobe products, I made the switch to Blackmagic Design. At my age (45, mentally I’m still in a pre-9/11 world), I was reluctant to learn a new editing program. Adobe Premiere Pro had been my go-to program for many, many…
Harley Love is one of those performers who make me yearn for the days of schlepping equipment all over the set. The moving of warm lights, the acquisition of enemas and douches, the ungodly amounts of bottled water, and baby wipes. It was all in parts and parcels of being a porn production assistant. And…
After 15+ years, I thought I had seen it all and done it all. Or edited it all. Or saw it all and wish I hadn’t. Today, I saw something that made my jaw drop while editing with my trusty Studio version of Davinci Resolve. We recently shot Rayvn Alexa for TheDickSuckers. Our stunt cock…
I’ve been on thousands of sets and cut almost as many scenes. There have been times, as an editor, when I’ve scratched my head and wondered how some lack common sense. Or a basic understanding of civil and criminal laws. Here’s a list of things I wish pornographers would stop doing: I’m sure there’s more,…
