22.15 At the "World's Largest Gangbang," there were a bunch of fluffers. Are fluffers normal on porn sets?
Not anymore. On a "regular" one-day wonder, you often
have more cast members than just two, so the money is
stretched past the point of allowing fluffers... plus you
have trained wood on hand, so the necessity of a fluffer
should be lessened.
Nick Long says:
If memory serves correctly, 'fluffers' were used
more in the days of 8mm loop shoots where the
camera rolled all the time to cut down on edit
problems (not high-tech stuff then) and fluffers
were used so the guys could jump in hard and get
the job done. On sets today, if you have a fluffer,
it would be the 'added attraction starlets' to the
features, it's just that now they appear in the vid
instead of working on the side and out of sight.
As with everything, there are exceptions to rules, and
the Chong gangbang was one exception. This exception
occurred because of untrained wood and the latitude of
the budget.
Nick says:
Besides. when they expected 300 individual bodies
to show up, can you imagine the boredom setting in
with 295 naked guys standing around talking to each
other while 5 each took their turn?? What a
PICTURE! :)
Again, there are still fluffers, but they appear as
the 'extra talent' used in a vid to add more people
and credits.
Tim Evanson tells me that on gay sets, things work
a little differently...
Some gay porn stars have noted in interviews
that they still find "fluffers" on the set by
using crew members. In an interview in SAVAGE
MALE, gay porn star Doug Forbes noted that he
and several of his co-stars have often leapt
off-stage and grabbed the hand of a crew
member who they find attractive. They engage
in sex with that crew member until their
erection comes back up or the cum begins
flowing. Unlike fluffers in the olden days
(who were employed or specifically invited to
the set to be fluffers), the "fluffer" today
is more likely to be just another bystander
the star finds hot.
