These two popular models, so rarely seen, are travelling again this spring, and both are booked with us.

Unfortunately, some shoots planned for April have been cancelled because of the Files Forever fiasco, but I'm hoping this will not be an ongoing thing. Sales on C4S have been climbing and the prospect looks less bleak than it did even a week ago. We will still be seeing a new model in April, plus the return of Carissa and Jasmine. I shall have plenty of content to publish, but double or multi-model shoots (after Carissa and the new model appear together in April) won't be happening again for a while. Double shoots are expensive and I worry at the moment that I may not recover the outlay in a reasonable time.

Cool, hopefully c4s works out well enough in the future that its alright to start some multi model shoots again .

I'll admit I haven't bought anything off c4s yet, been sorting out the best way to do it , dreamhost was a great cover for me so been sorting out a prepaid card, but they are a bit harder to come by in the UK, hopefully have it sorted now though.

Out of interest, for the future, if your worried about multi model shoots and money, could it not be possible to set up some sort of fund like in the past? It's just an idea, something like release a 'trailer' on c4s as pre-purchase or something, it's a bit iffy I know, just wonder if its worth thinking about in a few months if things don't pick up as much as would be liked for those kind of shoots again. There's lots of flaws in the initial idea I'm sure, I don't fully know how everything works, whether receipts would be enough etc, but still worth investigating? Maybe like a holding contest fund?

I have already considered using C4S to collect money for other things but I think that could bring trouble down on my head. It's unlikely that anyone would be misled by a short clip with a high price tag, but if anyone was (and let's face it, the world is hardly free of boneheads) then they would complain to the staff at C4S, with the possible outcome that they would suspend my account.

To be honest, I'm not frantically worried about the future. I think C4S will suffice if I don't use any other outlet, but I shall wait and see. I have looked at various alternatives but they all have their drawbacks. Indeed, most take nearly as much overhead as C4S, which means movies would not be any cheaper and I would have all the hassle of creating a new library, etc. For the moment, I'd rather just concentrate on producing content and managing it to its best advantage. One thing I will do is add C4S links to all the movies on my websites. This will be a long job, but has the advantage that it is a fairly permanent solution - C4S is very unlikely to close up shop.
