There are two paths that a porn star can go.
One is grow in popularity and exposure. Become more marketable and desirable. Jenna Jameson is the poster girl. This is like winning the lottery.

Far more common is that the more exposed they are, they less they get paid. After a year or two, if they are not on the “star” path, then they have used up their fresh face marketability. They then have to do more extreme scenes to make the same money.

Can I talk to you for a sec about porn? 

I think I remember saying that you had watched an ‘adult’ video?
Maybe I just fantasized it.

I’m trying to understand more about how women appreciate porn.
Cause I’m feeling a calling to produce beautiful porn.
Not technically beautiful (cinemetography-wise)
But capture the beauty of lovers’ connection. (While still being raw and hardcore at times)

I want to make porn that both the guy and the girl involved will want a copy and think is hot enough to masturbate to.
I want to make porn that has a group prayer / intention on the set before a shoot.

Of course, I also feel a desire to star in them, too.

I am thinking about making a DVD as an artistic endeavor.
IT would be pornographic, but it would also have extra features of interviews and discussions about the divine transcendence of sex (as I see it).

Thanks for letting me think that through aloud.
Anyway…
I was wondering if you would like to watch a video of me having sex.

A woman visited me recently and asked if we could film it. It was just a magic weekend that embodied the ‘You can love someone for a night’ mentality.
We were 100% committed to that moment…without any future expectation.

To me, the footage captures that. But it may be only cause I was there. 

I was wondering if you would give me feedback? On the above ideas and the video.
I would have a cameraman do it, and better lighting. (not the Point of View style, I don’t think.)

Am I full of shit? And just trying to justify a porn addiction? Or is it a reasonable path to consider.

Sweet dreams!
