Your not that broke? Whats not to like, unless you get the (we'll call it stuff) on your face like Warhammer says.
Do it.
Do it.
yea i know, just saying....Wasn't that type of load...
Ah ha, I thought they'd automatically have his name in there. I don't think it's shameful at all, I can just understand why he may have concerns about doing it.
As you guys may recall (or not) I work as a camera man for a local news station. Thanks to the economy, however, the gig isn't paying much these days. They've cut back on my hours. So, I've been doing a lot of freelance work lately.
A few minutes ago I was e-mailed about a shoot happening this Friday. The details were vague, so I looked up the company to check if they were legit or not. It's a porn company! What the...?
So, yes, your friend Catman has officially been offered a porn gig. And, no, I'm not doing it. I'm not THAT broke.
It doesn't matter if you're just the camera guy, because there are a lot of companies that get iffy about hiring people who have pornography in their job history.
You helped her rehearse though, right?

I like how everyone assumes it's straight porn.I like how everyone assumes Catman is not going to be in a situation where the place is dingy and/or the girl is completely unattractive.
dood it's as the camera man, not the bloody star, take the job and the money. if you're really worried about it find out what sort of film it's gonna be.
hell i'm a photographer who makes most(if any) money on nature, but if i was offered a gig to shoot a playboy shoot, damn right i would take the offer
I've seem the same oneA while back, I was watching this porn blooper where the dude was just about to finish on this girl's face. The camera man was right there getting a close up from behind the girl, and he ended up getting stuff all on his face instead of the girl. That's going to end up happening to Catman.
[blackout]I hope I am not the only one who's seen that porno blooper before.[/blackout]
In Tv News Cameramen are also called photographers occasionally. I got into it by starting off doing some freelance gigs and building up contacts and a reel. Then sent it in to some stations and here I am. I still freelance on the side to keep expanding the resume.
4. For those asking how to get into the photography field...as far as working for a news station is concerned you have to apply for a job. Or do an internship in college and hope it turns into a job. That's what happened to me. As for video work, you have to start making contacts.
