Civilians artists were out in Vegas and California's San Fernando Valley talking to directors, performers, agents and producers about the ins and outs of the dirty movie biz: how they do it and what it takes to make it. These insiders got down to the nitty-gritty of how they started in the porn industry, how to become a star, and how technological advancements have affected the genre.
