Sequoia, How is it doing porn? Is it pretty much mechanical or do you get into it? Like that guy on the cover kinda creeps me out. What if the guy totally creeps you out. How do you handle that? I’ve always been curious about that.

Thanks Laroo for the interesting question, I can honestly say that I’ve never been asked that before and now I’m going to dedicate a blog post to your interesting question!

How is it doing porn? Mainstream porn is pretty mechanical, (this is from the perspective of someone who only performed in “gonzo” scenes). Of course its not with your first couple scenes because you’re just getting into it and everything is a new experience. Especially since I had never modeled before porn was exciting because for the first time I was told I looked beautiful in front of a camera, which I had never been told before. So learning the poses, the facial expressions to make, having a makeup artist work her magic on you etc etc for me was an appealing process in and of itself. The stills of a scene were my favorite to do. I feel as if stills are the perfection of a moment, whether the moment is wrapping your tongue around a stranger’s cock or the expression of ecstasy as it slides inside of you.

I didn’t get into the sex per se, but I got into the role of playing the slutty chick that was into the sex. Does that make any sense?

This is the aspect of stripping that I love, playing the role of the seductress and really luring the man in. In stripping I was never really into the guy that I was working, sure there were guys I preferred over others, but I wasn’t going to spend time with them for free.

This is related to mainstream porn because you’re seducing the camera, not the male talent. The male talent is just a prop in porn, mainstream doesn’t really allow for or encourage connections between performers and to be honest I’m not really sure if it would be a good idea if they did.

The guy on the cover looks creepy, but trust me he wasn’t. He was Cuban, his English wasn’t that good and it was his first scene as well. He asked me if I liked him and that if I told him that I had a crush on him it would make the scene go easier for him. I told him it was just a job for me and that I was looking forward to the check at the end and that was it. He had trouble performing the entire time and the scene took all day to film.

There wasn’t any guys that creeped me out, men don’t really have that effect on me anymore. If they’re trying to be creepy or leering or gross its more like annoyance than a fear based emotion that comes up.

There was one guy that I did walk out on a scene though, it was a P.O.V. scene which means the guy who is holding the camera is also the talent thereby creating the “point of view”. I didn’t have a good feeling about him and I wanted to use a condom and he kept insisting that we go bareback. I refused and packed my shit up and called my boyfriend to come pick me up. My agent had a shit fit of course because A. my boyfriend came to a scene and B. I left in the middle of said scene.

That was my last performance in mainstream porn. I got sick of feeling like such a commodity and sick of the context of the story lines in the scenes.

If anyone took notice to when you google my name a P.O.V. scene comes up which is clearly not me, this scene was filmed by the same company that I walked out on. They’re using my name for another girl. Coincidence? Nah.

In conclusion I do realize I sound a bit “goldiggerish” in this post, but my opinions here are relate to my feelings about performing in roles that aren’t necessarily me. Roles that require work to be in. Whereas the work I did in Australia I was basically being paid to be myself which is sexual and open and free and the work that I did over there reflects this beautifully. There is a part of me that believes sex work as spirituality as well, but this is for another post entirely…

Until next time…

Making “Twatinas”

Posted in Mainstream Porn with tags gonzo, Mainstream Porn, porn, Sequoia Redd, Twatinas on June 17, 2008 by sequoiaredd

“Sucko el dicko?”

“Si, senor!”

These and more fine examples of acting you can find on the epic pornography film, “Twatinas”, which really strives to break racial stereotypes and create a sensual depiction of sexuality…not.

My scene for Twatinas was shot on Friday June 19, 2007. I am not Latina and definitely not Twatina. I was paid $700. My agent, Eli Thomas drove me to the location and told me that I’d be working with “romantic Tony” who always takes his time on a scene and with whom director’s get irritated with because he’s so caring about his fellow performers. We finally got to the set, I signed and initialed a bunch of papers which basically said that “We can capture your image/sounds/video and use/display and caption them in any way we want to”.

About half hour prior to the actual filming the “director/camera guy/producer” asked me if I spoke any Spanish and told me I would be Latina today. The scene was shot in an old apartment in downtown Hollywood, Florida right next to the beach. I shot the scene with Tony Desergio, which made the shoot go fairly quick (2-3 hours), because, as he made a point of saying, he’s been in the business for fourteen years.

So basic synopsis is: camera guy finds me (i.e. working class Twatina) sitting at a local bus stop waiting for my ride to my minimum wage job and offers me cash to fuck on film, of course I can’t understand what he’s saying because “No hablas ingles, soy de Argentina”, but he grabs me by the arm and takes me back to his apartment to make a movie anyways. By this time Tony shows up, gives a thumbs up to the camera man to show approval for the piece of meat he found and we go inside. Tony sits me down on the bed and puts his moves on me, we engage in a little oral…

some fucking…

And voila (insert Spanish equivalent here) you have a porno!

I should also add that while we were waiting for Tony Desergio to show up the “camera-guy/producer/director” offered for me to blow him, just to pass time, ya know? And when I kindly declined, he gave several examples of times when he was waiting on set and how other female performers blew him.

Yeah…mainstream porn is SO professional.

My First Girl/Girl Scene; The Sex Therapist

(^back when I was bald^)

My first girl/girl scene was shot on Thursday January 11, 2007 it was for the site MilfLessons.com. I was cast as a sex therapist that was counseling a couple about their dwindling sex life. I worked with Xana Star and her husband Dax.

I was really nervous, as it was my first scene actually performing with other people (up until that point I had only done masturbation scenes) and this one was with a girl, which made me even more nervous.

My agent, Eli drove me down to the BangBros “headquarters” in South Beach. I sat in the BangBros waiting room for what seemed like an eternity where they had Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas playing (I’d soon find out that this move was on a continuous play loop in the Bang Bros. waiting room…).

Finally they took me into another room where my hair and makeup was done. I happened to see the model that was with me on my first shoot, she was scheduled for another boy/girl scene, but she had started her period. Bang Bros. offered her the sponge treatment, but she kindly declined.

The Bang Bros. dressing room was insane, numerous racks of brand new clothes, shoes and other accessories lined the walls while six or seven women of all ages stood around in various stages of undress. For each of us came a little piece of paper containing information regarding our scene and how to dress us accordingly. Of course, things always are up in the air at the Bang Bros. office and anything, anything is always subject to change either due to a whim on behalf of the “director” or the wavering limitations of the performers.

They dressed me in a burgundy corset, a tight mid length skirt and some of the most ridiculous pointy high heels I’ve ever worn. One of the dressing room ladies painted me up in probably the most makeup I have ever worn (apart from my initial porn-folio shoot). I looked in the mirror and became even more nervous, I felt like I looked like a drag queen.

I first saw Xana in the dressing room, she insisted on doing her own makeup, I had any idea how to paint my face I probably would have opted for the same. She struck me as headstrong, independent and as a woman that likes to be in control.

We shot the scene in an anonymous hotel room somewhere in downtown Miami to which we were transported in one of BangBros’ many oversized, black SUV’s.

A major construction site was in action next door, but the background noises didn’t seem to be a problem. There was only two other people with us, the “director”/videographer and the shoot manager/photographer.

Everyone sat down and ate lunch first, the “crew” set up the lights and planned the “scene”.

We started filming the scene with the stills being shot in between the takes. I fumbled through the striptease and in my lines, then came the sex. That part wasn’t as hard but I couldn’t decide whether I was supposed to really be going down on her, or just make it look like it and I couldn’t tell if she was faking it or not. I should have just been focused on the task at hand, which was performing, but my mind was all over the place.

After we went down on eachother, Xana & Dax started fucking and I got to sit in a chair and watch while playing with myself. The director told me I didn’t have to cum for real, but I decided to go for it anyways…lol

At the end of the shoot we all piled back into the SUV, I managed to trip in the ridiculous heels attempting to climb into the back of the SUV (it was bound to happen anyways) and we headed back to BB Headquarters.

The office was practically closed by the time we got there, the shoot had been an all day affair, even though the actual content was less than an hour in the making. I was paid $700 for my “work”, more than what my next scene would be: my first boy/girl.

And that was how my first girl/girl scene went down.
