Jay...I've shot a lot of porn and been around a lot of porn.

And I promote X-Art stuff.
So I see their work. It's nice. Boring, but nice.

What on Earth causes those scenes to be so expensive? The location? WTF?
It isn't like they are a mainstream movie telling a story on some exotic location. Most of the scenes are either indoors or by a pool. Just like all porn.

They could be shot at any nice home in L.A. or Vegas... or anywhere.

So why are the costs to shoot that so high? I don't get it.
Are they spending days at a time to shoot those nice little vids? I'm not seeing a whole lot of acting or dialogue in the promo materials.

Just cheesy music and the camera set to make a lot of bokeh in the background for that "soft" look.

Am I missing something? I'm not seeing anything that should cost any more than a normal shoot.
Matter of fact, a group sex scene would cost a lot more than what I'm seeing on their site.

Don't get me wrong. It looks pretty. But just looking at it...I think it could be shot for a lot less than a "normal" porn scene. Unless they are flying everybody in private jets to exclusive 5 star hotels and eating caviar.

Call me crazy, but I don't get it.
