    Found her! There seemed to be a couple other girls who were mixed races. I thought it was a really good documentary

    This doc probably has the setup that it does because it literally focuses on a group of girls that are the top of their game on sites like MFC. For instance one of the girls (the mime), has the top post on reddit's gonewild section and frequently gets interviewed by people like HuffPost. She is in her own right an internet celebrity and I have watched many a cam show of hers, she cares about her custies and it really does show. I have seldom seen her struggle for tips etc.

    I think that this doc should have maybe mentioned that aspect though, that they were only focusing on the girls that have "made it" because it would give another layer of legitimacy to the content. As someone who is "average" at the moment, I would definitely love to see a doc that is made about the everyday camgirl, it would definitely make for more interesting viewing. It would also deter the flood of newbies that tend to unsettle things for the rest of us, if they all knew about those horrible $5 days, $40 weeks and so on that are all part of the camming process.

    Yet another camgirls documentary lol
    I saw the documentary yesterday and in my humble opinion was rather bad one . It kinda pictured us as some white trash living in some dirty houses with filthy mirrors and laptops eeeekk , smoking some weed or drinking to be able to cam , exposing themselves naked in public , having an unshaved gamer boyfriend and bragging on making 500 a night ( if so ... couldn't some of those dollars be spent on a cleaning lady lol ??!!?? ) and custies are some freaking angels looking for friends lol . Ok, some stories seemed real but still....

    Kinda weirded out the one girl is letting her toddler be shown in one of the previews, even if its not during a cam show. Eh maybe its just me. Don't think we need yet another documentary. Pretty much all my thoughts on it.

    Because camming isn't something that we should be ashamed of. Society tells us that sex work is shameful and puts a stigma on the women who do it.

    That is true, but at the same time if there wasn't the stigma to it then it wouldn't be as lucrative.

    I have an interview coming up with them within the week. With the next documentary crew they are making a Canadian version of camming. they say they mostly want it from the male performer perspective but are having a hard time finding men who cam.

    I am all nervous about it. What points do you want me to bring up so they can be at least brought up in conversation I have with them.

    When documentaries gather their information on the subject they have to go through a whole bunch of stages before we see the final product so I get they can not show all sides of one topic plus depending on who is publishing their documentary they probably want to have their say in what goes on air.

    I think a few of us should get together and make a raw amateur version of camming and what it's really like on both ends of the spectrum.
    @Minnie, would you mind bringing up the ups and downs of camming, including percentages and slow vs. fast money?

    I'll go ahead and pay my lil $5 even though I really don't want to see it all that bad.

    (or maybe i'm just cheap?)
    This is pretty standard rate for a movie that just came out

    I think that they chose the models that they did, and also MFC as the main site is because they wanted to focus more on camgirls as entertainers and not just sex objects. It helps to reduce the stigma associated with cam girls also. I'll be honest here, a documentary about camscores under 1000 would be fucking depressing. I rarely ever browse that far down but when I do it's always a guarantee that i'll see some really depressing and occasionally pretty nasty stuff.

    Well, what I meant wasn't an entire doc on ladies with a low camscore lol, but they could have shown the juxtaposition.

    Now that I've seen the actual documentary for myself I'm surprised to say that I actually enjoyed it. I too have been sick of all these probing, experimental documents about what we do for work. As if we're some new species that needs to be exploited. I noticed they used women of all shapes and sizes backgrounds and they were able to tell their stories. I did see a few bbs from SM so at least it wasn't based completely on MFC, though I did feel it was MFC dominated.

    I noticed that some of them did bring up income which was a good thing. Oftentimes we hear about how many amazing weeks these doc girls have and no one ever talks about a slow night. I heard at least two bbs on this doc saying that they experienced low days. I felt that was very refreshing. Though I certainly feel more could've been said, I feel totally justified in the fact that someone said SOMETHING about the ups and downs of camming.

    I really enjoyed the more mature cammodel. She really made me smile and honey, she was doing her thang. She made me realize that life has its own way of showing you that yes, it takes away, but it also gives back. She lost her husband, (I'm even guessing a HUGE part of her income let alone companion and friend) and through camming she was able to get that back and more. She now has her financial needs met (or the opportunity to do so) companionship, and love. Not meant to feel sorry for, but to feel empowered.

    I will agree that the documentary gave out an air of fucks given but maybe I'm just too cold as a person. It's hard to tell whether these models were being 100% in their documentary or if it was all for show. I feel like as a model I put on a face and am never actually myself on cam. That it's all a hustle for me. Then I have sites like MFC where the girls seem to really connect with the guys. I'm not sure if that's genuine or not. Or perhaps it all is genuine but I'm too hardened as a person.
