How does on become a director of adult films?

Question

the kind of director that eventually attends the adult movie awards

Answer 1

I think you need to have a trust fund or else enough of a belief in yourself and in p**n to risk your life savings. Myself, if I was risking enough money to make a film I certainly wouldn't make p**n but then I'm not really into p**n at all.

I don't think that there's any fresh angles or ideas to be had. p**n is quite a simple idea. I'm sure people have thought 'I'll make an artistic p**n film with a great plot' but people who want artistic films and people who want p**n don't want them at the same time. Tinto Brass managed it with a small amount of success and if you like g*y p**n then that Jean Genet film is revered as a good attempt although this doesn't interest me in the least, mainly because I'm not into looking at naked men. Above all, there's little to be said because no one will hire you to be a p**n director unless you are already acclaimed. A great script for a mainstream film might attract sponsorship but first time p**n directors fund themselves.
