Do Your Research 

Perhaps the second most fun part of making your own porno, is getting to do the research. This means watching your fill of any number of different erotic films, whether they’re the reliable porn you’re used to, or something even other streamer porn girls. 

 

So, this can range from scouring your favorite online porn sites, or watching your favorite cam girl or streamer porn sites. Where you get your inspiration is up to you, but just make sure you’ve got a clear idea of the sex you’ll be wanting to have. Otherwise, you’ll end up creating another grainy, shakily made, amateur video. Which does indeed have their place in the compendium of DIY porn, but absolutely shouldn’t be the only thing you’ve got in your portfolio. 

Gather Your Equipment

Equipment doesn’t have to be fancy. What you use to film can be a cell phone or even an old digital video recorder. The beauty of where our technology currently exists is that it is super accessible to just about anyone, on any kind of budget— so really your filming device isn’t actually what you’ll need to focus on. Instead, it’s all the fringe bells and whistles that will really make your home movie pop. 

Lighting is huge in a streamer porn session. You’re definitely going to want to spend a decent amount of time working out how to create a lux landscape of perfectly lit rooms. On the internet, there exists a veritable playground of specialty made equipment to get that perfect degree of luminescent light, that isn’t so bright it looks like you’re planning on parking a 747. You’ll need just enough that you can enjoy what’s happening on screen and still acquire that sultry, candlelit, vibe that helps hide any of your less favorable physical attributes. As a bonus, the internet is also filled with a truly shocking amount of DIY lighting hacks that can give you that perfect glow on the cheap. 

You do not even need to consider editing, that’s the beauty of streamer porn, its live. So, more than any of the technical equipment, you’ll also want to consider any props, lube, sex toys, and prophylactics that will aide you in your quest. 

Prepare the Set 

This can be really easy, or super involved. That is entirely up to you. Just make sure that wherever you’re planning on filming is in fact legal. 

For your first video, it’s probably best to start off somewhere familiar and private, like your home. After you get comfortable with what’s actually involved, and how long it takes to put something together, feel free to graduate towards crazier spots to get your epic love fest on stream. But it’s always nice to start simple and just work your way up to the big time. Sets and equipment alike will likely develop alongside your lust for making at-home streamer porn flicks, so don’t be afraid to gradually add to your repertoire as you find out what works for you, and what definitely doesn’t.
