      I don't think they get 5K in amateur studio…

      All I "heard" from Corbin Fisher studios, if they're very high demand model, they could get 1000-3000 for one scene.

      Another, for Men studios, above 500/scene.

      And... gay porn industry usually paid much more than straight porn, that why we often heard this days "gay for pay", straight man as gay acting porn. Gay porn also more less competition than straight porn.

      Agreed. Studios are not paying their models as much as in the past,.  There is so much more competition now, and many more studios, both established an amateur to choose from.  If an actor is getting 5K a scene, he is really popular and working with an established studio.

      I've heard of guys in straight porn being paid as low as $50 per scene. Straight porn is all about the woman, the man is not important at all - only his cock is.

      That is why so many of them venture over to the gay side of the fence.

      Have you serviced your Dom today?

        Actually, there aren't as many separate studios as there were even 5 years ago.  There have been a lot of mergers and sub studios created.

        I can believe that studios like BelAmi paying big money for their "actors", especially the big name ones.

          Bel Ami is in Czeck republic salaries in eastern europe are very low compare to the west. The men are really gorgeous. They always filming in splendid villas. I wouldn't be surprised if they were doing also entertman for rich and generous donators.

            UK websites typically pay £150-£300 for a scene. Lower end of that for solo.

            I've been told extreme fetish sites like brutaltops pay "very well", but only know figures for sure for more tame stuff.

                not much at all!! Every one I've ever talked to said there is no way you could possibly do it for a living.

                  In general, amateur models are sought out and are paid no more than a couple hundred dollars, per my inside sources.  And established porn actors make no more than a thousand or two.

                  It's amazing how studios have no problems low-balling and cheating models out of any fair share of whatever is produced from the activities, but scream bloody murder if users share torrents on the material a user may purchase from them.

                    Really the attitude to pay depends on how you look at the commitment

                    Hourly rate? Damn good money

                    Rest of your life knowing anyone could suddenly say 'I've seen you getting fucked on camera!'? Very low pay.

                    The rates can be inverted though. One site offered me 30 quid an hour (but would have the second one of those), or I could be hooded (never recognised) - but the payment would be a nominal 1 pound/hour. Have to have a lot of sex to make any money doing it that way lol.

                      Sort of blows a hole in the "I did it because I needed the money." excuse some people use.

                        What Do Gay Porn Stars Earn?
                        Remarkably little. While some name brand stars can earn up to $5,000 a scene, the vast majority make about $500 to $1,000 per scene. No matter how you do the math, that doesn’t come to a whole lot of money. Let’s say you earn $500 a scene. If you’re lucky you’ll work 5 scenes a month. That’s $2,500 a month or $30,000 a year. Considering the median household income in the U.S. is $51,000, that means you’re making a little bit over half of desk-job Americans.

                        Bottom line: You can’t make much money as a performer in gay porn. The smart ones augment their porn compensation with personal websites, DVDs, appearances, merchandising and often, escorting.

                          Not particularly. Not like everyone tries to make a living off of doing porn. A lot of straight guys do it for the extra cash. Helps them out.

                                      I understand high earners average 48k a year. Aepad was making 120k when he died.

                                        We're probably part of the reason they don't get paid as much.  ;D
