Holly are you just doing stills or are you planning videos?

If you do videos -- interviews with the talent please! Watching a scene is so much more rewarding if you know about the woman's sexual predilections, who much she loves/hates her work etc. Reality porn is great -- and you respectfully lubing a pussy or two would be a fantastic bonus as well.

And yes, I do think you should create a brand by appearing in your own work to introduce each scene, etc. If you have any doubt that people want to see you -- Pierre Woodman has made a career out of inserting himself into his own porn -- conducting interviews, reality porn with him directing the talent in bad English/Hungarian/Russian and Woodman is a short, balding, fat guy!

Think of how successful you would be if you, an intelligent, beautiful woman, did the same thing...
