Why’s Instagram letting ‘some’ sexual content slide into our feeds, but others, mostly vulnerable minorities pushing their intimate aesthetics & exploration approaches through the algorhythms, get straight out vanished from the app? Hot Take: Instagram is not made for Artists. It’s made for agencies competing for attention. Playing this game is easy if you play by their rules. But what happens with intimacy artists? Are we suppossed to live with getting our accounts (a place we use as personal gallerias, our image files back ups, our fanbase growing tool, or even as life diaries) killed, and be expected to hit the reset button to be a part of these ‘hunger games-like’ platforms like theres nowhere else to go? Hell no.
We, as producers, editors & camera-ops needed options, so the best we came up with was a new Network that could allow Filmworkers (and other forms of Analogue Erotica Artists) to post, promote & sell their works. We (DGAF HQ) are a worldwide team of inter-disciplinary creatives, image artists, camera professionals & editors of different gender/race/backgounds, involved somehow in Digital culture, Sex Work, Porn/Erotica, Gender Studies and/or other kind of personal exploration journey. We came together after sharing crazy experiences with censorship, cancel culture & sex work in the Covid Realm. We needed a safe space for us, but also acknowledged how many people also needed a place for them. So we created the DGAF Network.
Our door are opened to films, documentaries, stories, editorials, party shots and any Adult Oriented content that also includes boudoir, implied, explicits, straight porn, gay porn, bi porn, you name it. If its on Film, or any kind of non-digital formats, we want to help you keep working. We’re after artists like us. Horny souls with the biggest hearts.
In the Covid Realm, prostitution and pornography are jobs that mean completely different things than what they meant back in the Old Normalcy. The fact that this generations approach to sex has so many cultural variables makes is very hard to just pin an expression to its value as an original piece, as a timeless story, or as an insult to a current moral regime. Art and Sex are just that. Moments. It just is, and the fact that in Porn (which is when and where these two may meet) it exists as a unique moment in its own time-space captivity, makes it almost a priceless material illusion. Who would’ve though that collectible porn was a cheaper, older and (therefore) a much more valuable industry than the comic book industry, and all their stories & heroes & movies & remakes & spinoffs. Ok, yes, they can have the merch market.
Nevertheless, the DGAF program was designed to provide an accesible income for all Filmworkers involved in Erotic content production with an interest in collaborating with positive, drive, consenting and willing adults on the internet, specially performers, editors & publishers, while also promoting their work in a way they can manage and grow their worldwide audiences. DGAF Partners are professionals who engage in fair business with DGAf Stars through our DGAF Form systems. DGAF Partners are responsible of conducting their Production Sessions according to the Script and/or the Agreement previously set and approved by their DGAF Stars.
We want Sexworkers, performers, actresses, dancers, models and any other body/intimacy professionals participating as DGAF Stars to be encouraged to pursue their best interests when working with DGAF Partners, because we want everyone to always feel safe about who they’re working with, and safe about the quality of the final product result from the shoot. Respecting each others professional ways of achieving a common goal is key. This is why the DGAF Partners Production Documents folder is an essential part of the DGAF Partnership Program Forms: always attach payments, vouchers, agreements and important documents to back up all real information about every content production process.
Once you fill a DGAF Partner Form, DGAF HQ will go through this information and make a decision about your participation on the DGAF Partnership Program. It is very likely we contact you personally.
Once accepted as a DGAF Partner, you get access to the DGAF Content Form & the DGAF Videoclub Release Form. Situational information and image files will be attached into these Forms, making them a reliable sources of unaltered data. A compilation of all hard evidence regarding all production aspects and intellectual property, that protect the rights of the author and its agreement concerning the distribution within the network.
Having all the back up needed & professional protocols to abide by, DGAF Partners & Stars can enjoy earning money all day, every day, day & night, even when they sleep. All thanks to the beautiful people of this world that it’s turned on by Art that for most, it just looks like Porn.
