Danny already has some Valentine's Day, St Patrick's Day, Christmas, et cetera shoots done. Gosh, I wonder how July's big firecracker will fit...

Cue the theme music here.

Hi Danny,

Your latest journal video is most welcome, thanks! But your intention to take 5yo nephew Carter to Disneyland obliges me to warn you not to accept any invitation to stay after the park closes. Some of the staff can get pretty damn rowdy!!! Just trust me on this one, okay?

Hell yeah! I <3 cartoon porn...especially Disney cartoon porn. Probably one of my weirder fetishes.

No wonder then that you are so into Sailor Moon, considering what she does on "underground" tribute Web sites! How about snipping out a section of orgasmic squealing from the audio track of a suitable Hentai Anime and using it as your cell phone ring tone?

And I forget... Did you remember to sing Some Day My Prince Will Come in your recent naughty Snow White video? And did he? How many times?

As I am ignorant of Ghiscari, I must admit that I did not know what Mhysa meant. Thus I asked Missandei, who said it simply denotes "mother." (Apparently, canines and felines are not into using possessives.)

For those of you who want to get into, or catch up with, Game of Thrones, check out the often hilarious Funny or Die miniseries, Gay of Thrones, in which the swishiest Hollywood hair stylist you will ever meet recaps the episodes of the third and fourth seasons!

Where are my drag queens? ...errm, I mean dragons?

WTF? Young lady, words have CONSEQUENCES! You "aksed" for this! ;-P

Montana is renowned for its mining and its many big buttes. So what could be more natural than for some "shawtie" dwarves to get crunk, make a bootie/butte call and then go mining Hannah Montana's "tunnel of love"?

Yo-yo-yo! That's just what the Ying-Yang Twins (YYT) want to make them tiny-D mofo's do! They hail ol' Miley with Hi hoe, hi hoe! as she arrives, dons her Snow Whitebread drag, and then starts twerkin' away. Listen up dawg, as the YYT serenade her in the club with its "very romantic" song, Whistle While You Twerk here.

Shee-it, that Cyrus B dancin' gonna wreck mah balls. And they don' need no room, and no instructor to skeet! Damn straight!

Next up: Disney's Hannah Montana performs Whistle While You Twerk

Hey Dani,

Those in the know about FTV are not surprised that many of its frauleins are into what a Volkswagen ad campaign in the 90s made famous in America, Fahrvergnuegen ("driving pleasure"). It is natural that having spent many early years in Germany, you also often find life behind the wheel to be a special experience!

Those who didn't see your video log episode here explaining your love of the road can instead listen to a brief relevant audio extract by unzipping and playing the mp3 file here.

Guess what? It turns out you are hardly the only girl to, in your own words, "get such a kick" out of driving over speed bumps to music. Since you have now come of age (and are even buying your own health insurance) we are allowed to have my friends Garfunkel and Oates explain it to you with their original song, Go Kart Racing, here, (almost correctly) captioned by a fan so that you can sing along!

Garfunkel (r.) and Oates (l.) singing Go Kart Racing

P.S. Now I know why partner-free masturbation is often called an autoerotic experience.

P.P.S. Did you ever see how your (former?) FTV colleague Violet drives a stick-shift vehicle? It's something one will never forget...

Well, I'm not surprised after hearing the conversation you had about the Disney theme parks with your girlfriends Caroline and Max, posted here.

You know, Mickey's wandering eye eventually led Minnie to retaliate, as we all learned during their ugly and highly public divorce proceedings. Who can ever forget how it began?

Judge: Mr. Mouse, your petition states that you are seeking a divorce from your wife, Minnie, on the grounds that she has lost her sanity.

Mickey: No, your honor, there's been a mistake. What I actually told my attorney was that I'm sure she's f_ucking Goofy.

Oh no! You've got the DOUBLE whammy!

Hey Dani,

The other day I caught up with your vlogs through D460. I was especially amused by D456, titled Being super silly, wherein you used digital camera software which let you play with dynamic FX ("special effects") in creative ways. It's something NEW and I think your long-time fans will get a KICK out of it - even if they no longer check out every one of your vlog postings.

Personally, the first shot of you - with an arrow through your lovely head - was a source of nostalgia to me. Even before you were born, I was a computer graphics pro. One day, I got the job of creating interesting images to demo the abilities of a new, cutting-edge, high-resolution electronic display. One of the images was a set of STATIC headshots, which I decorated with animated graffiti - including one poor fellow whose head landed up pierced by an arrow! In those days, unless you had a QUARTER-MILLION DOLLARS (x2 in 2014 dollars) to buy a Quantel Paintbox (WAY beyond our budget!), you had to do what I did - write your own software to get the job done! And now, low-cost, mass-market software running on a humble PC can recognize your head, including where your eyes and mouth sit, and annotate your image on the fly. Credit the awesome progress in making digital hardware many thousands of times more cost-effective, just over your own short lifetime.

Again, I encourage you to invest in something like the $250 green-screen kit I described earlier, which would let you use a static or dynamic background (there's plenty of copyright-free imagery within the Wikimedia Commons), to make even ordinary vlog shoots more interesting. Visit the Congo jungle, a frigid arctic igloo (beware of "pokies"!), the pyramids of Egypt, a sailing ship full of horny pirates, the Eiffel Tower, a camel caravan in the sands of Arabia, the Battle of Waterloo, a Venitian canal gondola, King Kong's up-facing palm (or prick), the Houses of Parliament, a human mouth, a crater on the moon, Cerne Abbas (home to the biggest porn art in the world), a dangerous big-city slum, the back of a housefly, Disneyland - or even Disneyworld (you FINALLY get to go!) - all from the comfort of your home studio!

Hey Dani,

As I freely confessed long ago, I don't know the porn film business... So I don't know any implied business advice to you is worth very much. But the Internet makes it possible for people to discover and explore so many things previously inaccessible! Like most men, I've often been a porn consumer during my post-pubescent years. Thus it is a real temptation to pull back the curtain, so to speak, and examine the machinery which has made the production of porn operate, even if I don't have the pecuniary interest in the industry which you do.

Recently, I asked you What education did you have for your current vocation?, partly as a prologue to pointing you at some educational material. This week, I was surprised and delighted to discover how much interesting material the AVN wesbite publishes - not just rehashed press releases, as I had cynically expected, but lots of in-depth stuff as well. I hope you have been reading their news feed for a long time, but if not, I would encourage you to start doing so.

One AVN item which caugt my eye was Inaugural Camming Con Moves Dates to July 31-August 3 which alleges that it is the first trade show of its kind. I have no idea if the cost of going to this event would prove worthwhile to you, but I thought you deserved a heads up anyway, giving the professional plans you told us about. There is no little irony in having a physical convention to address the supposed needs of an industry based on virtual meetings, but the announced secondary goal of the event is to let fans and models meet IRL.

Apropos of e-space vs meatspace, a few months ago I had naively lamented By the time your generation reaches middle age and starts to control things, I'm sure we'll live in a thoroughly virtualized world where physical location won't count for much in your business.. But for now, I'm not sanguine the porn kingpins socialize via LinkedIn or cast via Skype. But the AVN article Crowdsourcing Column: Mainstream vs. Adult - How different are they, really? implies my anxieties were misplaced. It quotes Colin of TranslationsXXX so: In mainstream almost everyone wants to do business face to face or over the telephone, while in adult email, Skype and ICQ are often preferred.

Again, let me say I am delighted with your recent initial foray into CGI (Computer Generated Imagery) via webcam software. I think such stuff can only grow in importance throughout the entertainment field as the years pass - which is the premise of that EnterTech certificate at ASU I have mentioned more than once. And in any case, your web site upkeep has already kept your finger at least a little in the technology pie for some years now. So I hope you will also pay no little attention to the AVN Technology and Webmaster news feed.

Please take note of the remarkable range of world-class Free and Open-Source Software available to you for the asking. I'm NOT talking about pirated commercial software, an analog to something that plagues your industry, but something ENTIRELY DIFFERENT. For a generation now, this category of software has been designed, debugged and supported by volunteer cooperatives spanning the globe and linked via the Internet. Their motive has been a combination of unmet personal needs, ego, professional reputation building and philanthropy. They have produced remarkable tools, the equals, or sometimes, superiors of similar commercial for-profit software. Want an example? The Linux operating system, which all of Google's millions of search engine computers have always run since the day the company was founded. Google's Android, which as likely as not, runs on your smartphone or tablet, is in fact a Google derivative of Linux. It is free to all takers, as long as they don't use the name in producing products based on it.

I hope the day never comes that you still want to star in porn but cannot. But if next time (hopefully NEVER) that you "total" your car, your pretty face also becomes a permanent, irretrievable total loss, it would be good to know that you have a set of well-practiced non-trivial skills useful to a wide range of industries.

Uh! I would be highly offended if my wonderful fans DID NOT watch each and every one of my video logs. Haha...I am kidding...sort of. I'm pretty sure Anoree is the only one that watches everyone of my video logs. If someone watches at least one of them then that makes me a happy camper.

I'm pretty sure that some other fans watch every video log you post, too.
I might be the only one who watches them over and over again, though.

Danielle and Isis hear (unfounded) rumor that
an odd fan will sometimes skip a wonderful vlog
DRACARYS!!!

P.S. Most Webmasters have their servers generate logs which document which files are accessed when, allowing one to measure the popularity of various files with a script. Maybe the FTV folks can lend you a hand.

Ron, even better! A personalized Danielle calendar would be amazing, especially the kiss!

Danielle, after your last update, I saw this picture and thought of you:

[RonTheLogician]

Hey Dani,

You've told us it is now your ambition to forsake traditional "commodity" (mass sales) video for live cam shows, so I'd like to bring your attention to several information sources which I hope may prove useful in helping you.

First is an article that advocates for the wisdom of your new path which, at the least, should provide encouragement. It writes in part:

DVDs are dead, pay sites are struggling and porn is free and unlimited... Why live cams, Twitter and Skype may be the porn industry?s last hope.

Find this September 5, 2012 publication here.

The suggestion is made that if you can beat back the ample camming competition and serve the one-percenters, it's not impossible to rake in enormous profits: Maitresse Madeline, Dominatrix, Auctions One-On-One Webcam Session For $42,000 writes the article of 01/09/2014 here.

It seems that the mass-media has picked up on the erotic camming industry, because recent months have seen the broadcast of not merely one, but at least three English-language documentaries on this subject! You can thank my informal UK source for the discovery of the two from Britain.

Sadly, I can't tell an American how to purchase a copy of any of them, although perhaps your provider Cox has a means of selling you the HBO program about which I don't know. The two British programs are among those typically made available via free Internet VoD, at least for a limited time after broadcast, but only to British IP addresses via common geolocation tools.

But guess what? Just because it's hard or impossible to buy legitimate access, doesn't mean you have to forgo this very timely crop of vital business intelligence. As I write, you can find at least one copy of each program on YouTube, and goodness knows how many other places less subject to easy scrutiny. Now, onto the programs themselves.

First, this year HBO effectively resurrected the breakthrough series it launched a generation ago and retired in 2009, called REAL SEX. The new half-hour series is called SEX // NOW. The pilot episode, airing in January, consisted of three different segments on erotic camming. Find a preview of the show here and a chat with its creator, plus the pilot trailer, here. The most shocking (and unsubstantiated) text-based claim it makes is this:

There are an estimated 6 million cam models globally. (sic.)

To paraphrase Mr. Morse's quotation of Numbers 23:23, "What hath Jennicam wrought?"

The second program on this subject is from the UK's BBC 3 and called The Truth About Webcam Girls. The BBC describes it here, which includes a two-minute trailer and notes that this program about UK camming debuted to Britons in February.

The third program, also British, was broadcast by Channel Five in early April. It is called Webcam Girls - At Your Service and is profiled by Five here. It glibly claims a mere 10,000 British women do erotic camming - which would be barely a fifth of the global rate which the HBO program asserted. It also claims that earnings average 800 pounds sterling weekly. I found the handful of remarks posted on its legitimate (UK-only) playback Web page, especially by claimed camming pros, interesting.

I hope that, one way or another, you arm yourself ASAP with these information sources, which I am sure no small number of your competitors will. Even if they provide you little or no new insider wisdom, I think it's also important to keep tabs on what the public at large (including potential clients) is being told about one's industry.

Best of luck!

P.S. With all this broadcast media interest in camming, I would not be at all surprised if someone took up the suggestion I posted the other month about telling the Jennicam story to a new generation.
