Cool What education did you have for your current vocation?

Hey Dani,

I'm curious what education you had for your current vocation. Was FTV Rob helpful in this regard, or were you an auto-didact, considering that you are a voracious bookworm?

As my previous post stated, I really think that the general availability of more formal training of, and advice to, porn players is called for, given how large and mature the industry is. But somehow, this isn't something I see conventional theatre programs embracing soon, notwithstanding the existence of porn scholarship, such as at ASU. Sigh. Perhaps with more formal training, you coud have obviated the conflict you recently told us about concerning your talent agent and a former contract firm.

Have you ever seen the video-based program known as Porn 101 and Porn 102, produced by Sharon Mitchell's now-defunct Adult Industry Medical Health Care Foundation (AIMHCF)? The demise of AIMHCF - not to mention the database breach which tragically spilled the real personal identity of so many porn players - is much to be regretted.

I recently learned that about a year ago, Julie Meadows, a retired award-winning veteran of 239 adult films, partly reviewed these two titles, in two lengthy posts of her blog, here and here. With AIMHCF gone, it's great that their distribution has survived its destruction, as part of a 4-DVD how-to product released in 2008 and titled Breaking Into Porn. (Your sometime co-star Tommy Gunn is among those who took part in the overall project.) Amazon sells the package here and another firm leases streaming access online here. If you ever watch Porn 101 and Porn 102, your review of them would make for an interesting vlog epsiode!
