I am new here, need advice from you

[Triple X]

Hello everyone I am new to the board, I am trying to figure out a few things about the gay market. We have shot some gay/bi sexual dvds, our bisexual ones have done really well but our gay ones haven't taken off as I thought they would. When we shoot a scene it ranges between 12 to 15 minutes long, do you think I should make my scenes longer? Also, all the actors we have used are actually bi-sexual men, we have actually never use just "gay" actors for our gay dvds, only bisexual ones. Does this make any difference or am I just crazy?

Please help!!!!!

Neither the length of the scene nor the sexuality of the models are necessarily the problem, per se. I think we need to see some sample clips.

Well, if a guy is having sex with a guy, I don't think it matters if he's bi, you can sell it as gay. If a straight guy is just jerking off, you can sell it as straight or gay or bi. If you have a girl and two guys, you can sell that as bi for the guys and straight for the girls. I think that it doesn't REALLY matter what they really are, whatever the CONTENT shows is what it should be sold as.

Hi Triple X. Welcome to GWW.

It's hard to really tell what is going on with your clips without seeing them. It's not really an issue of them being bi if they are both getting into what they are doing. Randy Blue shoots a lot of straight guys having sex and it's never an issue with our members. However, if the guys you are shooting are going at it like they are just doing it for money and not really getting into it then you'll definitely be turning people off. Or if the lighting is bad or the camera is out of focus. It's hard to tell without seeing them, but these are things off the top of my head that might turn people off.

If a straight guy is just jerking off, you can sell it as straight or gay or bi.

Whether or not the guy is gay... If the audience you're marketing to is gay, then it's gay content.

If you have a girl and two guys, you can sell that as bi for the guys and straight for the girls.

If you have two guys doing eachother, and a girl (who's really just there for show) then it's bi. But really I think it's gay content for those who don't want to completely come out of the closet.

I've had plenty a model say they're bi when they introduce themselves, and then when I put on the straight porno they're limp as a wet noodle. I'll switch it to gay porn, and they're on like a light.
