how much do AV gers earn

[jasnth]

how much do AV gers earn per video?
or per photoshoot?

it is like 1million yen or more?

[eaglearcher]

Im more interested in how much the male actor in AV earn and where can I sign up.

[tsunami7]

I'd do it for free just to get some of the hot chicks that do AV.

[eMKa]

I would even pay if I could join girls threesome in some AV video;)

[sniperz]

lol.... get a pay of 1million - 5 million yen to consider one video XD!

[kevinsucks]

It is known that female porn "actresses" earn WAY more money than male ones. (for obvious reasons) ;)

[motionbreak]

Seems to me like the male stars that are getting lucky with the JAV actresses are the ones who are actually paying the female stars. I mean... think about it, if they wanted to hire someone with a really huge member to do the job, they would. Say if you had the money, hell you would want to be in the AV too! It's all about the $ folks! This explains the generic image of male stars in AV videos lol.

[cire8888]

Interesting topic
I always wonder what are the actress pay :) but 1 million yen is a bit too much right?
If it is true the with 5 av movie the actress can be millionaire...

But to be actor...I would do it wilingly

[Aza0]

Come on a million Yen is only around 8,000 US. But thats still alot for a porn flick.

[aHChOnG]

lol..i interested in how much the male actor earns & where to sign up too.

[A LaZy PaNdA]

A million yen is worth like 9k isn't it? >_>

Considering American pornstars get about 500-1000 per film, 9000 is alot.

[slavik]

Ron Jeremy said in an interview that male porn stars make 200-400 a scene. Ron Jeremy makes 400USD per scene.

[Zolt]

Dunno about AV stars, but amateur things usually give out a kind of sign-up sheet with a list of fetishes where the girl can choose what she is willing to make, and see how much she will get for it. Goes from 3000 yen for taking the top off to 20.000 for group sex, plus extras for BJ, SM kinks, etc... A friend showed me a recruitment sheet it was funny as hell.

All in all a girl could get 100.000 or a bit more for a full shoot with various fetishes at a reasonable level of kink. There's a bonus if the perf was good.

Still, the pay rate is only one step above prostitution. Many girls do it to buy those crazy vuitton bags or go on a shopping spree in Hawai, or even to put up a saving plan. Of course, for real actresses that have been spotted by an agent and go pro, the pay is probably at least one order of magnitude above this, but not so crazy either. They need to make a LOT of movies before they retire. Ran Asakawa did over 300 movies in her career, most of them in the last 3 years.

And don't forget, many of the girls ended up working as a prostitute after they retired from the AV business.

[stigermorgan]

maybe according to the type of scene if somethings hardcore maybe they will get more payment.many of them still related to prostitution my japanese friends said so but if u wanna taste their service the money u need to spent is no little.

many highschool also sell themselves u will see a lot in japan cuz trens setter is expensive so they must get as much money they could get what an irony

[Parable]

AV girls get paid upwards of approx 200,000 yen a movie meaning about $1750 a movie. Thats for single girl in the entire movie (don't quote me on that pay rate because i'm not sure how "official" the site i got it from was). According to japanese news sources, Schoolgirl Panty-shot movies pay girls about 10,000-20,000 yen per scene making it about $87-174 a scene for the girls, most of which are normal women not av stars.

[FIrewall]

i'm new here... this is an interesting topic, nice to discuss about...

[Aldair]

It's the norm. Don't get discouraged though, this is pretty moderate compared to some of the threads here. Scary stuff. :D

[elcidro]

I read some times ago from some taiwanese forum, for famous AV like sora ai get pay 15000(taiwan unit duno wat u call, taiwan dollar?) per tape, exclude other bonuses. Which is not really much.

[gugujiao]

Then do the AV actresses get royalties out of the number of discs sold?

[Choosebrews]

Hmm... interesting subject... Im gunna have to research this...

[jasnth]

i would think by the time they really retired from AV business, they would have enough money to spend for the rest of their life
or open a shop/salon or something

consider if they retired, they would be around 30+ age no?

considering tokyo standard of living is highest in asia,aka one taxi trip could mount to 50USD or more, the real AV actress should be paid more
no?

You are thinking American pornstars.

Japanese AV idols have 3 to 4 years of career AT MOST in the porn business, then they have to move on. Because every year ther're at least 50 newfaces to compete with them.

XE dot com has a currency converter, which 1 mil yen = 8,594.478 USD

I always figured the girls get something like maybe a thousand or 1500 a shoot. That way, it would make sense that some girls over here who do tons of shoots arent filthy rich but still making good money.

Well by US standards our Pornstars get paid a lot... a real lot... like Jenna Jameson used to make in the upwords of 35-50k per movie depending on her # of sex scenes.

then concidering the amount of movies shes done... she has more money than I ever will.

Now, Ive been trying to research the amount JAV make and been coming up pretty short... guess they dont like it advertised XD Im going to keep looking though. :P

[Fhqwhgads]

Jenna Jameson, shes a big time one though.

Personally, if some sneaky person fount a ****ton of wages for girls from all sorts of sites and companies, I'd be interested to read it. I've got my mind on FTV girls personally, that's got a wide range of generally softer all solo stuff.

[bakakumo]

Here's a good article (http://mdn.mainichi-msn.co.jp/waiwai/archive/news/2003/09/20030914p2g00m0dm999000c.html) for you guys who're interested. Apparently, the top AV stars in Japan get around 5 mil per flick. That's about US$43,000... almost an average Joe's yearly salary in the US. The hard working ones like Aida Yua and Aoi Sora release 1 film every month! U do the math!!

[azsh06]

if Aoi Sora at my video, i rather dont get any payment at all...

[ForteAnly]

Pretty interesting I always wondered how much they got paid per flick good info. Does their price range from just movies or from that they do in the movies example: anal, oral, etc.

[jasnth]

Maria Takagi got paid 300 million !

[elcidro]

Maria Takagi got paid 300 million !

i'm sure is in yen

[gugujiao]

Maria Takagi got paid 300 million !

Any evidence on this?? Like whether that is per film, per year, over the course of her career (which may include photoshoots, magazines, interviews etc)??

[lordvr]

I wonder how much the girls got paid for doing the juuou series XD

[elcidro]

300 mil yen is not much. I adi post, like sora aoi class AV get 15k taiwan unit (duno wat u call it, i'm not from taiwan) which i read from a site long ago as they interview her. There is other bonuses base on selling how much.

[kildy]

exact amount of 1 million yen is 8600+

[parkerman]

Y'all are looking to find out how much a male actor is paid? O.k. let's look at this realistically here. People want the girls and don't care much about the guys. So their pay is probably minimal. I'll bet they get a one time shot at it too, since it matters so little who the guys are. I used to hear this nasty rumor that to get into pro porn you gotta do gay stuff first (I think that's more of a joke than anything serious), but the idea is that if you're gonna double up on a girl then you have to be comfortable touching other men too. But the real problem is being capable of doing porn. You gotta be able to get it up and keep it up at will. It's not as easy as it seems and if you watch enough JAV, then you know what I'm talking about with limp guys trying to wiggle it in there. And worse than that, you have to be bigger than what's expected to be average (which isn't a big deal in JAV, so you're better off there).

[jasnth]

somehow there was a rumor that the male actors actually paid to be on the set rather than get paid

anyway,
300mil yen = $2580000
which is still pretty good

[bash407]

i think earn mor than 1 miliion an earn to enjoy

[eaglearcher]

So.. Where can male 'actors' sign up?

[Damen Rico]

I think the male actors have to acctually be recommended, but I'm not so sure.
Maybe the female actress selects who it is?

[venusgospel]

one thing about japan that really amazed me is the number of female willing to do commercial adult videos. not only the professionals, but also ordinary school girls or even housewives or even granma! wtf.
when you search japanese AV on the net youll know what i mean, or if you happen to live in japan and been to visit dvd rental shop, go to the adult section, and see for yourself the massive amount of ladies willing to do AV.
this lead me to a guess that the pays must be pretty high. not for 300 million yen sora aoi's class i mean. the ordinary highscool girl's class. maybe they were all doing it for fun?

[nilius]

yes but imo its shocking to see ppl wanting to expose something that i consider particularly intimate to a whole bunch of horny ppl .... especially if we talk about house wives and grandmas .... O_O

[cryss]

Is it just me or that dark skin jap dude wih really short hair, kinda like almost shaved, makes an appearance in every S1 No.1 Style video?

[aquamarine]

If she is hired from the streets of shibuya, we will typically give her a hourly wage of nanna-man-en, but if she is a well known actress, it can be upwards of nijoo-man-en
