FSC: Industry Leaders Pledge Not to Resume Production Until 3 Conditions Are Met

Updated Tuesday, June 2, 5:45 p.m. (PDT) with additional signatories.

LOS ANGELES — A group of adult film producers and buyers have released an open letter to the industry, in association with the Free Speech Coalition (FSC), pledging not to resume production until specific conditions are met.

The full text of the open letter follows:

To the Adult Entertainment Community,

We are deeply concerned for the health and safety of every member of the adult entertainment community. The inability to produce has caused financial hardship throughout the industry, and we are as eager to return to work as you are.

However, to protect you, our community, and our industry, we, the undersigned, have agreed not to resume production until the following conditions are met:

  • Film production is legally permitted under the phased reopening guidelines in the local and national jurisdictions where the production will occur.
  • Free Speech Coalition publishes Production Health & Safety Guidelines for sets during COVID. These guidelines will cover on-set safety protocols for a variety of production scenarios, as well as guidelines for health screenings and testing.
  • My company and any companies that produce content for it have adopted an industry-standard set of safety protocols.

Only when these three elements are in place, and we are confident we have effectively minimized risk for performers and crew in our community, will we be able to resume production. We are working to these goals as quickly as possible.

We’re all in this together.

Signed,

Adult Film Producers and Buyers
