I have a friend that did editing for a small adult film company. He used to tell me stories that he heard about female talent coming on the set and smelling less than savory (if you catch my drift). He also heard things about accidents during anal sex and even injuries during anal sex. Has anyone else ever heard of any of the aforementioned instances? I'm sure that there had to be some bugged out stuff happening on sets. I know MR. MARCUS in a magazine interview a few years back complained about dealing with women on sets that he might not normally find attractive and having to deal with bodily smells that turn him off and still keeping wood. Jerry Butler in his book "RAW TALENT" told about "a ball of clay" rolling out of Sahara's ass during an anal scene. That's SICK!!!!
While I'm not a big LA producer or anything, I've shot my fair share of scenes and definitely have some stories to tell. The most recent is a girl showed up for a shoot with mosquito bites covering her entire body... and I mean covering. I flipped her $50 for coming and sent her on her way. On top of that, when she walked in the door she brought along two dudes who she said "just met on the way here." The whole incident was surreal.
[From a 12/28/98 post to RAME: "A scandinavian magazine recently had an interview with Rocco Sifferedi. "Here are some of the things he said: "-While filming a shot with _____, she was so stoned that she almost bit his dick off. He had to be taken to the hospital at once._____ ran off into the streets without any clothes on, and had to be taken in by the police."]

I would have to agree with you there. Although, you have to remember that there are several types of women in this business. On one hand, you have the professional women who've decided to make this a career and in doing so, they take their jobs more seriously.
Then, you have the degenerate fucking whores who just do this to pay the rent, get their next fix or whatever have you. The girl that showed up at my door was most likely the latter. It was obvious she wasn't taking this whole thing seriously because no true professional would have conducted themself that way.
Skeeter Kerkove posted a story on this forum a while back about Maggie Star showing up to do an anal scene for Bait #2.
She admitted to him that she'd been doing speed for five days straight and hadn't taken a dump in all that time.
So when the anal action started, blaaah. Shit everywhere. According to Skeeter, it all came out when Maggie was Reverse Cow Girl on Mark Wood.
They cleaned everything up and continued with the scene. Maggie even did Ass to Mouth! And apparently there was enough usable footage to make her the box cover girl!
There are a lot of very gross stories but they will only be told when you are sitting at Jerry's Deli in Woodland Hills with a bunch of porno folks weekends at 3 o' clock in the morning after everybody had tons of food and at least one drink... You are not in the club if your story isn't at least as disturbing as the one that the person before you told.
I understand that from what has been said on this board. That's why that incident would seem to be less surreal and more unprofessional. Also a reason why I never attempted to pick up a camera and make porn. I have friends who would be great with tossing people off set, but dealing with the hissy fit afterwards and trying to get anything done seems problematic.
Every director has seen it, smelled it, and gagged on it. But what's the point of airing this sort of dirty laundry. After all, the body (both male and female) has stuff that's unsavory at times.
As a shooter, I've been shit on, pissed on, 'aromatized' on, came on, dick slapped, etc. It's the nature of the job. It's a hazard of the job. You get used to it after a while.
One time, I was minding my own business shooting a doggy anal position. I think the guy knew there was something brewing in the girl's butthole. He pulls a 'matador', I twist instinctively to the 'matador' position (that is a side maneuver away from outgoing shrapnel), and out flies a corn nugget out of the girl's asshole that hits the wall at nearly bullet speed laced with a fart of course.
I'm with you there. I hate confrontations and try to remain calm during any situation. There have been a few times where things got a little hairy, but luckily I got through them. Trust me though, there were times I wanted to throw the talent head first through a window.
The porn set horror stories I have don't have anything to do with the bodily functions of the talent. It's much more upsetting for me when people get hurt or nearly hurt.
The worst one for me was when the enormous lighting rig fell right onto the glass table that 5 performers had just been sitting around minutes before doing a dialogue scene. Everyone was completely freaked out. People would have been maimed or killed if that had fallen while they were sitting there.
Followed closely by director and camera man taking a tumble down a steep hillside - that one resulted in a broken arm.
Jimmy D says his knees never recovered from the fall he took while shooting Agency Blue.
How 'bout the stuff they chose to leave in the picture... like when they shoot outdoors and there are all kind of bugs and mosquitoes flying about... I watched a flick once where the fly pose itself in the girl's ass, I'm pretty sure it was Gauge in "Unnatural Sex 5"... totally gross me out...
I absolutely HATE IT when there is an outdoor scene and you see gnats and flies zooming around the woman's asshole or pussy. It's DISGUSTING!!!! Probably why outdoor scenes have never been a favorite of mine. lol
The most common problem on my sets is models showing up on their periods.
2 weeks ago I went through 3 packs of wet wipes because there was so much blood all over the place. I ended up having to just wipe off the guy's dick in order to keep the scene flowing.
Took us 3 hours just to get 2 minutes of usable footage. :(

Gross. You could have had her use a curler to plug herself up.

Hahah now imagine the smell of the room..poor Mark Wood, I bet he just wants to forget that experience. Probably laughs about it now but was not amused I bet when it happened. But that is funny shit..no pun intended..also disgusting.
As far as starlets showing up on their periods and/or using sponges....I know that you have to complete your film, deadlines, etc. etc. but if I'm a director I'm not shooting the scene. I mean really, the average woman knows when their time of the month is.....they can't schedule their career around that one week? Now I also know that if they're on birth control that can sometimes throw things off. But I'm sorry, I'm not putting my raw dick up in a woman while the "red flag" is flying. It's nasty...not to mention the smell. Wowzers.....lol
I did a “behind the scenes” humor story once for Genesis and I think I heard everything in the book. We had to edit a ton of it out.
So when I interview a porn performer now I always ask the funniest or strangest thing that they have ever seen on set. It is a fucking riot to hear some of these stories.
One to come to mind was this girl had just eaten Taco Bell on the way to the shoot and then they had donuts at the set so she ate some of those. Then she was doing a brutal blow job and everything she ate came up. She threw up EVERYWHERE. So the director gets supper pissed and starts yelling at her, calling her names etc. She gets pissed and doesn’t finish the scene and when the director stormed off the set he slipped in the vomit and fell flat on his ass.
no, it was from Cassandra Leigh's ass. But it was hilarious when Butler used the term 'clay'.
Joey Silvera, in ?some 1984 movie, complained after giving Joanna Storm some very darkly photographed anal that he had a little 'shit on his dick' after he pulled out of her. I dont know if this was part of the script or just run-on footage that nobody deleted in the editing process.
Exactly one of the reasons I stopped going there after hitting the clubs/perties...there are just some things I don't want to know about the behind the scenes of porn. Ruins the fantasy!
In a now-defunct skateboard magazine (titled Big Brother, which was strangely enough bought by Larry Flynt—but that's another story) the interviewer asked director Gregory Dark about some crazy on-set stories.
He proceeded to tell a story about directing the film White Bun Busters, and during the anal scenes a couple girls just started shitting everywhere, while proclaiming, "I just don't know what's come over me." Dark replied, "I'll tell you what came over you, a couple gallons of shit." He said the girls didn't even leave the set; they just squatted and started shitting, with no shame.
Dark said he just walked off set, and took a monitor and walkie-talkie with him so he could still give directions to the cameraman, who was left on set to deal with the shit and the smell. Dark said the cameraman was freaking out screaming, "These bitches are shitting everywhere."
