Directors Weigh In On the State of Porn Today

You see their names in the credits and on the covers of your favorite movies, but to a certain extent, directors always remain enigmatic behind-the-scenes figures. XBIZ shed some light on these adult-film auteurs in a recent feature piece, giving porn directors a chance to chime in with their views on the porn industry today. Here are some excerpts of what they had to say.

Ivan (director for Anabolic, Evolution Erotica and more) on how porn has changed since he started out:

When I first got into the porn industry, the companies dictated what came out, so the viewer was force-fed what the companies chose to shoot. It was like the wild, wild west. Who can shoot the weirdest, grossest scenes? Then Internet companies mAE it a bit cleaner and (ushered in) a friendly style of porn.

Courtney Trouble (GLBT director) on how she makes her content unique:

I try to make every scene I shoot and perform in special enough to be worth the dollars. That’s why making queer porn and trans-positive porn has been super successful for me — I make it special and people are paying for it.

Kevin Moore (director for Evil Angel, Reality Junkies and more) on choosing subject matter:

I do [believe] what makes certain producers successful is they’re making movies from the heart, if you will.

Courtney Trouble on the impact of social media:

Social media has been a huge pro for my business, and I think the companies that continue to connect with fans and performers online create a larger sense of inclusion and involvement. The customers love my on-set stories and behind-the-scenes filmmaking bits.

Will Ryder (director of Not the Wizard of Oz XXX and more) on technology and piracy:

Technology always moves forward and brings us better accessibility, picture quality, and ease of use, but it really has no bearing on the current state of the porn production business. No bells or whistles can compete with free, and it’s about time that the content thieves — and, yes, I called them thieves because that’s what they are — get brought to the table, either willingly or kicking and screaming, and out pay out a proper royalty to the copyright owners upon whom they infringe.
