How to get Involved
Clearly the most direct way to get involved with video production in
this genre is to volunteer to work a few days as a member of a video crew.
Its a relatively inexpensive vacation. You have to get to the Studio on your
own ticket, but,
once there, the food and lodging are provided. And its good food also,
although you may be asked to help with the dishes.
Getting time off for a stint making video, however, is not practical for
many people, probably most.. However, there are other, less expensive and probably
much easier ways to be involved, however. Here are some:
1. Submit scene ideas. As a general rule we have to
stick to scenes with no more than two actresses, perhaps with the addition
of one role for an off-camera voice (male or female) or a minor role for a
male. Minor means something like a hand reachig in at the end to begin a
rescue.
2. Donate items for use as wardrobe or props. The most useful wardrobe items
are genre, period, or character costumes. Items with large amounts of
layered material are not so useful as they are very difficult to clean up.
3. Make and donate set decorations. We use, for example, a wide
variety of liveplants, commercially made faux plants, and home made faux plants.
4. If you cannot come in season to work as a crew member, perhaps you can
come in the off season. There are always projects that require a second
person, or perhaps you can do some outside wiring or plumbing.
5. Purchase a scene from time to time - this provides the funds we use to pay the actresses, not to mention feed them.
6. If you run a small business making and selling clothing, props, or most anything else that you would like to see used (that is, you would like your potential customers to see used) we can make arrangements to do that. Just ask.
7. If you have other services that might be useful and wish to donate them, plase get in touch. We have already been asked, multiple times, about things like photo retouching and things related to this website. As most of those offers are scams, it would be best to not waste your time.
