Most of us have either watched porn, made porn, or both. We’ve set up the old camcorder on a tripod in our bedrooms or hit ‘record’ on our MacBooks. But the end result is often far from what we expect, especially if we want to see some production quality. The disconnect between what we see and what we want to see can also sometimes be quite large. On screen, we may want to see ourselves represented: our age, size, gender, colour, ability, as well as visuals, desires and fetishes, but these things may not be readily available in the video store or online. So why not make your own?

In this workshop, Sonya Barnett will teach you how to become comfortable both in front and behind the camera, how to conceptualize your individual desires, and how to translate them to video. You will learn how to establish and set limits, how to shoot safely & respectfully, and how to deal with your performer{s}. You’ll learn how to shoot efficiently & creatively and how to take your footage through the editing stage to a final product using basic editing software. Also covered will be tips and tricks for using an iPhone as your main camera. {however, this workshop will not teach camera or software basics, but will assume you have adequate knowledge of your available equipment}.

This workshop is for those who are curious about shooting erotic content for personal use with whatever you have available. We’re not shooting pro video on big fancy cameras here – Sonya’s equipment of choice is her iPhone5, and she’s used both apps and desktop programs for her editing. This is the true definition of ‘down & dirty’! Here’s a sample of what that looks like! https://vimeo.com/59164381

After practicing what you’ve learned in this workshop, you should be more than ready to grab your phone, shoot some smutty goodness, and edit it, creating a nice little treat for your personal library. Or get it ready for the big screen and submit your piece to the 2014 Feminist Porn Awards!
