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,…
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…
The job of male talent can be a tricky one. Can he get hard on command? Can he ejaculate when needed? Can he show up sober, ready to work, and not creep out the female talent? One would be surprised how that last part can be an overwhelming task for many in the business. Chico…
Disclaimer: Do not read if you have a weak stomach, a respectable level of self-esteem, or wish to sleep well tonight. You have been warned. It was late 2003, and the late Chico Wang got it in his mind to get me a “blowjob budget.” He wanted to see if I could book talent to…
It was late 2003, and I had just gotten into the industry. I started by paying my dues in a variety of ways: setting up lights, getting baby wipes, getting douche, getting lube, and, above all, getting Bug Light for Chico Wang. One of the many perks of working for Chico was the ability to…
“You must have gotten a ton of pussy working in porn.” Well, I kind of did. I mean, I was working in customer service prior to working behind the camera in adult video. And my interactions with women were not worth mentioning—I did,after all, lose my ‘V Card” in a massage parlor in some city…
It was late 2003, and I had been unemployed for six months. I spent the Summer of 2003 wondering where life would next lead me. And for quite some time, I had been a porn fan. A male who liked watching people fuck? Shocking, right? At the time, I was following porn gossip sites, and…
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…
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…
I vaguely recall October 10, 2007. I was helping Billy Watson with a Manojob shoot while occasionally checking the adult news/gossip sites. At that point, my former mentor, Chico “Wanker ” Wang, was avoiding Porn Valley the way I avoid vegetables at a buffet. You see, Chico was accused of domestic violence, and I was…
