Adult producers who make amateur porn pay their models very little, as the girls themselves are entirely undiscovered talent and know almost nothing about managing their “adult business” careers. In an era while amateur and reality programming seem to have their own growing niche markets, even large production houses are starting get in on the trend of producing intentionally low-budget scenes staring unheard of performers in typically contrived situations.
You’d think that with the development of the popularity of amateur porn, pay for these unsung starlets would increase, especially as even mainstream actresses begin appearing in these contrived scenes and scenarios, often dressed up to appear in a casual setting or even captured performing random sex acts around the studio. But in fact, the popularity of this genre seems to be outpaced only by the number of girls willing to give it all up on camera for almost nothing. Don’t be fooled by those big handfuls of cash: look more closely and you’ll see the denominations are usually 10 or 20 dollar bills; and these girls rarely make more than $200 for an hour or more of sexual performing, which is less than your average call girl makes in an hour of fucking a stranger off-tape.
Compared to what mainstream porn starlets who carefully manage the progress of their careers can demand for their first boy-girl, anal, and double penetration scenes, the producers give the girls in amateur porn pay that is virtually nothing, often running the full gamut of ‘firsts’ on a girl in her first scene. This pretty much makes anything else she wants to do in the adult industry a situation where nothing is new, and she has nothing to offer in the way of an exclusive for any future productions. Which is a great play for the production studio, but exposes the whores for what they are: cheap and disposable.
