I know some people who do and they can't get out of it. It is a huge black mark on your resume. No one will touch you.
- Why am I drippings with goo?waterhouse
- seriously? maybe do the work but with a pseudonymhitsuji
- ghostbusters quote!hitsuji
- I have had people send me their books with porn crap in it. Emails straight to trash,morilla
- yeah i get that. i'd have a pornfolio and portfolio and keep them seperated...hitsuji
- ...although the pages in one might not be seperable :Phitsuji
- I worked at a porno company and went on to work at akqa.uberdesigner

haha... it could possibly make you immune to porn!? like porn overload. imagine working at home, every 5 minutes you'd be thinking... "i'll just knock off a quick one", only to look down and see that you've worn your penis down to a little blistered stump

One of my friend's first job was photoshop retouching for a hardcore magazine. He had to look at penises all day long.

I was offered a gig redesigning some porn sites in the uk when much younger.... very nearly went for it. double the money, thought it best to concentrate on my portfolio instead.
I'd have a crack now... geddit

ummm that's a nice grid layout you did with the taint collages and I like how you did different color overlay treatments for the bukkake scene.

I was asked if I could design one when I was 17 but had to turn it down as you can't even work on the sites until you're 18 (in the UK anyway).

I Interviewed a designer here for an entry level designer position. The only thing in his portfolio were screenshots of porn sites he'd done. Most were extremely hard core. There is definitely a certain aesthetic that succeeds in porn site design. In a few more years he'll be a master, I'm sure.
He didn't get the job.

i did too. it was horrible to look at all these pictures... ewwwwww.... you can't believe what the average male likes to climb on :(
- do average males visit ManInsideDonkey.com often?baseline_shift

yeah, I can imagine if the piece you are most proud on your portfolio is some illustration that goes around some guy's cock.
With what face do you show that to your interviewer if he is not in the porn industry?
Oh yeah, check this binder I did for donkey's master 7th, her vagina lips are embossed and see the urine drip? that is silkscreened
- the guy I interviewed came in with a "there's no way I'm getting this" attitude. Almost made me want to hire him. Then I saw the dick designs...zenmasterfoo

My first studio project out of college was designing FAB National, Canada's gay mens magazine...

my first job at a software company back in around 96-97 we were doing a bunch of porn cd-roms.... doing the design work was a hoot, and we pretty much were laughing our asses off most of the time..
i mean, what else can you do when your AD asks you for an icon for 'double penetration' or 'pearl necklaces'....
it was a fun gig...- that reads a bit funny...it wasn't my first job, just my first job at a software company...

My friend, an accomplished fashion photographer, used to assist at a porn studio in NYC. Loved it when the Long Island Italian photographer used to ask the models, "Are you ready to show some kitty?" If they thought the pose was a bit too revealing, he'd reassure them, "Don't worry, we'll do touchups the meat."
