How not to take off like a hot air balloon when getting a blow job
… and other creative uses for sandbags
After I posted all those behind-the-scenes pics from my new movie Rent last night, a reader of my blog named James asked a very interesting and funny question:

But the reality is that those weights are sandbags. When we’re shooting still photography, we often use one particular pose that makes our abs really pop: We sit on the very front edge of a chair, extend our legs in front of us in a “V”, then lean back and exhale… all while trying to look natural and keep our hard-on (hence the need for frequent fluffing sessions):
It’s one hell of an abdominal workout… but let me tell you, it feels great when it’s over…
… and I gotta say the resulting photos look pretty sweet, don’t ya think?
Hope that answers your question, James!

I asked a question that earned an entire blog post. I’m strangely honored by that.
Hope you don’t mind! I just love talking about the “tricks of the trade” behind-the-scenes stuff, and this seemed like a great opportunity to do so. Thanks for asking such a good question! 🙂
Not at all. In fact, I like the behind-the-scenes stuff, too, so I might be tempted to ask more questions now (you’ve been warned.)
And why do I get the feeling “take off like a hot air balloon” is going to become part of your vocabulary now? 😉
If the inspiration strikes, please feel free to ask! The worst I can do is refuse to answer… but that’s not likely to happen. 😉 (By the way, I have no idea why I started referring to you as “Steve” halfway through the blog post. Brain fart I guess. All fixed now!)
I saw that; I just assumed “I like that idea, Steve!” was some movie quite I didn’t get. You know, like “Everybody’s dead, Dave” or “Dammit, Jim, I’m a pornstar, not a Doctor!”
Hi Jesse glad you posted these pictures so stunning
Nice photos like to be good friends
I knew that there are quite a few ‘tricks of the trade’ when it comes to making porn, Jesse, but this is definitely a NEW one! I’m so glad James asked, because if he hadn’t, I was going to. I know the old saying about how even if you enjoy eating sausage, you probably don’t want to know how it’s made. Most people could care less about the process of shooting videos, just as long as the sex and the guys are hot. But for those of us who ARE interested in discovering “how the sausage is made”, thank you for these kinds of posts! I hope you’ll do more…
I’m not going to ruin the magic entirely, but I do admit that I like to throw out cool little “bet you never knew” tidbits once in a while. 😉
No worries, sir. Having dealt with porn rentals for a good part of my adult life in the video store where I worked, reading up on the histories and bios of both straight AND gay performers, and then seeing the work of Ronnie Larson, if ‘knowing how the sausage is made’ was an issue for me, I would’ve run away screaming YEARS ago! LOL! As long as you guys do what you do as well as you do it, nothing you could tell me about it would be a turn-off. Now I need to know Keith and Jasun’s yoga secrets, because the positions they put themselves in sometimes to shoot you guys are UN. REAL.

lovely picsssssssssssss
Interesting !
Cannt wait to see the scene … In jealous of the blowjob …. And you get paid for this ??
What a life !!!
I know, right! It’s almost like having a paid vacation at a beautiful home in Palm Springs and you get to have sex with really hot men as a bonus! Which is not to say that shooting a film isn’t hard work — it is — but it’s also a lot of fun. 🙂
You can watch my scene with Bruce Beckham at http://jack.mn/rent-scene2, by the way. 😉
