My Wife & I would like to start our own porn studio.
(from directing, filing and editing etc)
we'll be hiring cute girls & guys to star in the movies once everything is in order.
is there any suggestion as to how we get it started?
Any info will help.
Thanks!

Oh & we're in South Africa (which really doesn't help - as SA hardly does ANYTHING)

I wish you luck. I'd like to have my own porn studio, too.
Although the chicks round where I live aren't as hot as the babes in American and Euro porn. Here, they're porky and spotty.
Anyway, it's a job, where I'd love to take my 'work' home with me.

It's not much different from starting any other type of production company. If you don't know anything about running a video production, then you'll have a lot to learn. If you can be more specific about what you want to know, people could probably help you better.

Anybody thinking about jumping into the porn business now by starting a production company is out of their minds. Best of luck but I hope you have a lot of money to burn through because you are going to go through it quickly. My advice to those with similar thoughts: Stay out.

I could not agree more. Never in a million years would I start over today, even knowing what I've learned in the last 8 years.
You'll have more fun and waste less money being a hybrid auto mechanic.

You could call your studio "Porky And Spotty Productions"

Here's my advice, for what it's worth...
The porn industry is in a downward spiral right now, from a production standpoint. The little guy has next to no chance making more than rent money (if that). The newer generations are more tech savvy and paying for porn is becoming an extinct idea. There's just way too much porn being produced and readily available for free for someone with shallow pockets to make a dent. Best advice... save your money and do forget porn.
Now, if you're thick-headed and really want to get in, my suggestion would be to start small. If you and your wife are looking to make home movies, that's a start as there's next to no cost in filming yourselves. After you've made a couple videos, test the waters by selling clips on clips4sale.com. They'll host your video and provide you with traffic. This way, you can see if you can provide a product that people enjoy and want to purchase.
If you can make it that far, I'd be glad to help you more.
Also, this post isn't meant to sound harsh... but the reality is that today's porn landscape is the worst it's ever been (at least for me and I've been doing it for over 10 years). The small guys are getting eaten up and the big guys are consolidating to weather the storm. Sadly, I don't see it getting much better.
