Shooting tons of Eurobabes for the shelves?

Sounds like the ultimate anti-porn-crisis programm:
:)
Just read somewhere that the financial crisis will make lead to more girls interested in porn again, will make them more willing and demanding less money for their on-set performances. Sounds fair so far, the more as in Piter the going anal rate went down 20% with most agents in the first quarter of 2009. :) :idea:

The text went that who produces porn and still has a bit of money to spend, would thus shoot lots of content for cheep as long as the crisis lasts and than release it once the crisis is over. They`d produce mostly for the shelf, and just patiently wait until consumers will be in a better mood again. :idea:

Sounds good, but has anybody already heard of such any porn director already working with this busines model? :?:
(Maybe Rocco? He always shot a lot for the shelf...but not for this reason. :? :lol: )

Cool down, ubertop!
The sense was not to shelf all material shot.
Also if some director shoots a girl you never heard of and never seen and than releases it in lets say 2011 whats the problem?
Its all about producing while it is cheap and selling it while the price rises to maximize profits - which will than invested in new porn productions I hope of course! :idea:

Isn't this the way it has always worked :)???
Only a few sites/producers offer fresh content all the time and are constantly after new models, the rest just offers pre-shot content.

Of course!
But the crisis could bring out another quality of pre-shooting and storing away for some time. The time frame would simply be much longer, at the same time the producers would try to shoot a lot at the same time for as little money as possible. I immagine that the average rate easily comes down a third if someone offers a girl 3-5 scenes in a row - the more as the escort biz is down too. Also, to get a booking at all, girls will go further than they did in times of ecconomic rise.

I'll comment later...but it is true that I foresee some newbies more this year and not for softcore.
I think that some niche will find more actresses disposed for....
But there are some concerns...

I guess its pee, g/g anal and maybe anal creampies in a first step.
But will 90% of it land on the shelf till 2011?

I just don't see companies saving stuff when they need to keep their release rythm on point.

About the crisis and the rates going down i don't beleive it that much.
There's always an average rate that u don't go below if not that means u're really pressuring the agancy to drop prices but it seems weird.

We're about to shoot 20 scenes per month and for sure it won't be on our shelves.
Let's see if we get a discount with that rythm!

i DOUBT IT!

If the companies shoot good scenes with great girls (and there are so many), and have good distribution, there is no crisis at all.
No need to keep films on shelves.

Thanks a lot for this Prague insight, ogpaps! :)
I am still not sure some agencies dont actually get pressured (not by you of course). I mean Prague, too, used to have really exorbitant price hikes in the peak of US-directors shooting a few years ago. Some agencies seem not to have adjusted their rates much since. But verybody wants to sell and survive.
Just me, doubting there are really no price-cuts...
