How does a porno director start making money?

Question by Rayan: How does a porno director start making money?
OK, So we’re all graduating this year and on our course at newcastle business school, we’re all pretty much entrepreneurs.

One dude called Simon basically gets up in strategy class and says he wants to start making porn, but this got me thinking.

How does someone who starts out in this industry start making money? You need money to pay the porno actors, but you need to start selling the film in order to gain capital to pay them.

Does this mean that you need capital to pay the actors before you even start making the movies?

Might be a simple one, but its certainly one that Michael Porter didn’t account for in his frameworks!
(If u dont know who michael porter is, ignore this part!)
