FSC Publishes Open Letter from Adult Film Producers and Buyers
The Free Speech Coalition published on its blog yesterday an open letter from “adult film producers and buyers” in which the signatories state their commitment not to produce content again until certain conditions are met.
The letter cites the following conditions as prerequisites for the reestablishment of production: “Film production is legally permitted under the phased reopening guidelines in the local and national jurisdictions where the production will occur; Free Speech Coalition (FSC) publishes Production Health & Safety Guidelines for sets during COVID. These guidelines will cover on-set safety protocols for a variety of production scenarios, as well as guidelines for health screenings and testing; My company and any companies that produce content for it have adopted an industry-standard set of safety protocols.”
“Only when these three elements are in place, and we are confident we have effectively minimized risk for performers and crew in our community, will we be able to resume production,” the letter states. “We are working to these goals as quickly as possible.”
The letter closes by stating “We’re all in this together.” As of the time of this post, the current signatories listed include Axel Braun (ABP-Axel Braun Productions), Ryan Hogan (Mindgeek) Lance Hart (PervOUT) Alison Boden (Kink.com) Steve Matthyssen (Vixen Media Group), Shine Louise Houston and Jiz Lee (Pink and White Productions Inc.), Steve Legos (Bang.com), Bree Mills and Patrick Alonso (Adult Time/Gamma) and Jack Avalanche (CherryPimps).
On the FSC blog, there is a link at the bottom of the letter enabling others to add their names and companies to the list. You can read the letter in its entirety here.
