Video Masturbation FAQ

We typically make several Video Masturbation shoots on one day, with several models on-set – typically three, but sometimes as many as five.

This enables us to shoot each model in their Solo Video Masturbation shoot, and to mix up the “pairings” for Double Video Masturbation shoots to make several video shoots on the one day. This maximises earnings for each model and for the Shoot Producer – and we get a bunch of shoots made for abbywinters.com! That’s a three-way-win (the best kind!) 🥇🥇🥇

These days are usually scheduled so you will have a genuine orgasm three times in one day (in three separate shoots, one Solo and two Doubles), with at least a one-hour gap between each.

If you think you will not be able to manage that, let us know and we can schedule a less-demanding day, no problem.

We reckon human sexuality is amazing 🦚 and fascinating! 🧐

So no worries, whatever you do is fine with us – we’re not here to judge!

However, some things are not right to show in a shoot, so this may not be possible to shoot with you. For example, anything involving self-harm is out, and anything that’s dangerous like using a noose or similar choking tool is not possible.

Anything else, we can probably work with! We’ll ask you about this more in the Video Masturbation questionnaire.

Kind of…

We don’t know how you masturbate (yet, haha 🙃), so we cannot really say… We can say we have made videos of a few thousand young women masturbating of the last 20+ years and while we’re surprised by a new approach sometimes, it’s very rare that we say “You can’t do that!”.

Buuut, there are a few basic requirements;

• You have to get mostly nude
  • So, if you normally masturbate fully clothed, that might be an issue (but let us know, we can discuss that!)
  • You’ll start with some clothes on, undressing is part of this type of shoot. You can have a lot of input into the clothes you start out wearing.
• You have to be facing the camera and light, so customers can see what’s going on
  • So, if you can only masturbate in the dark or with your back to cameras… that’s a problem.
  • We’ll often discuss with you a “pose” for the orgasm part of the video – it’s not super-strict, but we might say, “It’s best if your head is at this end of the bed for this part of the shoot”, or something like that. We’re always flexible with this, and it should be a dialogue between you and the Shoot Producer.
• You have to have a real orgasm
  • No faking. More info.
• You cannot use a vibrator
  • More info on why that is, and some options
• Violent, dangerous or inappropriate stuff is not allowed
  • eg, using a noose, shooting heroin, poo-play. More info.

Apart from that, we don’t have other requirements really. The purpose of these shoots is to see how you usually masturbate.

 

Welllll… masturbation aids 🍆 are fine to use, and the more varied and unusual the better (so long as they are things you actually use)! For example, we had a model who could only masturbate with a certain brand of shampoo bottle 🧴. Some people use handy household objects (like a hairbrush handle), and of course the classic dildo or similar object are fine as well.

But there’s one biiiig exception… you can’t use a vibrator! 🤬

We know the deal: you have your fave vibe ♒, it’s been with you through thick and thin and always comes through for you. We have tried shooting with these over the years and have found there’s a few problems with vibrators for us…

First, the buzzing sound is a problem: we use super-sensitive microphones 🎙️ so we can hear 👂 your breathing and, er, other sounds 💦. A buzzing vibrator spoils that.

Second, vibrator orgasms are usually quick and subtle to watch (even though they feel pretty damn good! 🤤). That’s quite convenient to schedule in to your busy day, but we’re making a product for our customers here, and we need a bit more… manual manipulation, you know? 👋

But consider that just because you normally have orgasms with a vibrator, does not mean that’s necessarily the only way. There’s no question that if you usually use a vibe, you can become desensitised to other stimulation, but it’s seldom permanent.

The typical way of changing this dependency is to get yourself “to the brink” with a vibrator, then finish the job with your fingers. As time goes by (perhaps weeks or months), each time you masturbate, stop using the vibrator earlier in the process, then continue and finish with your hands. Over time, you’ll become less-dependent on the vibrator and be ready to make a Video Masturbation shoot with us (and have some useful skills #alwayslearning).

Here’s a great article with more background and tips.

If you’re only able to have an orgasm with a vibrator, we cannot offer you a Video Masturbation shoot. You can use your vibrator in your next Solo shoot, however – be sure to bring it along and let your Shoot Producer know.

Yes, a genuine orgasm is expected. We’re not interested in seeing you fake an orgasm. There’s plenty of that online already – it’s pretty dull stuff. 🥱

Us – and our customers – place a high value on honesty, and our Shoot Producers are experts in spotting fakers. It’s awkward for everyone to be called out for something like this, so let’s just be honest with each other, ok? 🤝

If you think you’d not be able to have a genuine orgasm in the context of a Video Masturbation shoot, it’s not a problem – we have several other Shoot Types we can offer you to express your sexuality. 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩

If you’re actually on a Video Masturbation shoot and you can’t make it happen, let your Shoot Producer know. Maybe we can do something to make you more comfortable, maybe we need to reschedule to another day, or maybe you decide it’s not right for you? No problem.

We’ve shot a few thousand Video Masturbation shoots over the last 21 years. You can see them all on our site on the customer-facing Video Masturbation browse page.

(If you’re an existing model, you’ll need to log in to watch the full videos; if not you can still see a short sample video of each Video Masturbation shoot)

You’ll see a wide range of styles and approaches and locations, but also notice they have a few things in common.

 

No, thankyou. 🚫

We’d need to see the real deal. We definitely don’t want to see a “porn-style” orgasm, and in fact, that kind of “acting” can cause us to cancel the shoot! 😬

We know that some people are quieter, and that’s fine with us. If you’re naturally a screamer 😱, that’s ok too (but only scream when your body can’t hold it in any longer – there’s no need to start moaning as you remove your underwear – keep it natural and let your body lead the action.).

No, that’s not ok. If you just want to pick up some easy money, this is not for you. 😕

We want to make shoots of models who are excited to be in a shoot and who are actively engaged in the process. 🤩

That’s a fair concern to have, they can be a bit… elusive!. We’re not sexual health experts, but we do know a bit, so let us share some background.

An orgasm can feel like a sensual trance and create a state of sexual ecstasy that you can feel both physically and psychologically, a heightened sexual excitement and gratification is sensed, followed by relaxation.

Probably – it’s a little different for everyone – your heart beats faster, your breathing quickens, your nipples become erect, and your genitals become engorged with blood. As arousal climbs, these sensations increase until you orgasm. It feels really good! 🥴 😵 🤯

We ask our models to describe their orgasm, here’s some responses;

• A feeling is going from up to down in my toes … after, my face is just red
• They feel like riding a wave, I get close and if I choose to ride it instead of pausing and giving it space to dissolve, it’s like pulsating waves going up my stomach, and sometimes it makes my feet numb. Also, often I get really cold afterwards.
• Bright
• I feel hot, my body moving and eyes are closed. I feel great pleasure and wanna pee.
• Noisy (when possible ofc). I have to close my eyes so that they can happen. When I’m getting close to it, I feel vibrations, energies travelling around my body. When it’s happening, I see images, textures, sounds and lights on my head. It’s such an intense heat. Then, it goes down.
• They are sooo joyful
• I really feel like it’s a wave that gets bigger and bigger and crashes on the shore.
• They are soft and I’m shaking and sometimes a bit of cream is pouring out if it was intense enough.
• Afterward I can’t feel my legs anymore for a few seconds.
• I relax completely

It’s interesting that each person is very different in how they describe it, huh? 🤔

This guide from the always excellent Scarletteen site has a lot of sensible background to exploring masturbation, so if you’re uncertain it’s a great place to start.

And remember, practice makes perfect! 🎓 🏅 (hey, maybe there should be masturbation awards? 💡)

Model fees for our shoots change occasionally. Rather than have to find every page on our site and update the fee when that happens, we just have one page with the model fees for each Shoot Type. Check it;

Payment rates

You get paid for each Video Masturbation shoot you appear in – we might be able to schedule a few in the one block of shoots

Maybe you agree, masturbation is pretty great! 👋 🐈

We want to celebrate it 🥳. To do that, we need to get into the details of how you masturbate, so we can design a shoot that shows your style in the best way. This also helps us keep the shoots we release on our website varied and interesting for our customers.

We’ve developed a set of questions to learn about your techniques and approach, so we can help you feel comfortable and relaxed: that’s the purpose of the questionnaire.

We’ll send you a link to the questionnaire when you’re being booked for a Video Masturbation shoot, and you’ll have plenty of time to consider your answers (only people who have a clear and present need to read your answers will be able to. That usually includes the Creative Director, Booker Model Liaison, and Shoot Producer).

So, they’re coming from a similar situation as you are. Like you will with her, she’ll share her comfort levels of different interactions in the shoot, then she’ll undress, masturbate, and have an orgasm. She might watch you, and touch you how you asked (if she’s comfortable to do so), just as you will.

The “other” model has been through the same process as you so far – they read the information on our modelfor.abbywinters.com site, applied to be a model, done an Info Session, had their first Solo shoot booked and shot, perhaps some other Solo shoots shot, been asked about appearing in a Video Masturbation shoot, and asked to check this FAQ out.

Consider that the “other” model is what you are to her! 🙃

Yes, this is fine with us. 💃

But, on the shoot before the camera starts rolling, you need to share this preference with your partner and the Shoot Producer, so they know.

Your Shoot Producer will design a shoot that suits that situation – you should always speak up if you’re not comfortable with how the shoot design is coming along. Don’t feel like you’re being difficult: we want to make a shoot where you’re comfortable. 🛏️

Here are some examples of Double Video Masturbation shoots where the models are more separate.

Note, this only applies if you’re comfortable making Double Video Masturbation shoots.

We’ll select your shoot partner for the Double shoots, and let you know who it is. If you really don’t like our choice, we can investigate another possibility.

That may mean delaying the shoot day, until we can find a suitable person who’s available.

In a Double Video Masturbation shoot, you’ll probably be sitting very close to the other model – your hips or shoulders will likely be touching.

What happens next is part of what makes these shoots interesting to our customers: You guys don’t know how much you’ll interact during the shoot, and our customers definitely don’t know – that’s exciting! 🤩

Required minimum interaction

First, we don’t require you to physically interact any more than casual touching that comes from sitting close together. Most models choose to physically interact more than that, but you don’t have to if you don’t feel comfortable (discuss it with your shoot partner before the shoot – more on that below).

The minimum interaction required on a Double Video Masturbation shoot is to;

• Talk with you shoot partner on camera throughout the shoot
• Remain aware of and and “open” to your partner once you start masturbating
• Watch what she is doing
• Be comfortable with – and responsive to – her watching you

Of course your shoot partner will also be following these guidelines. So, Double Video Masturbation shoots are a shared experience (not, two models separately masturbating while ignoring each other in the same room!).

Possible interactions

There are many possible interactions models can have in a Double Video Masturbation shoot, including;

• Incidental touching, shoulder-to-shoulder, leg-to-leg as you sit side by side
• During masturbation, hand-holding, breast rubbing, thigh-squeezing, tummy stroking
• Help each other masturbate – you touch her labia and clitoris, she touches yours, in nice ways
• A hug at the end

These are just a few examples.

Safer sex

You won’t really be “having sex” with your shoot partner in a Video Masturbation (though that depends on your definition of “sex”), but you might be doing “sexy things”. So let’s break it down. 🥁

How much you guys interact is mostly up to you guys to decide together, but we have some rules to reduce the risk of disease transmission (more info), and some rules to keep the shoot design as-planned.

These rules partly depend on your current STI testing status with us.

Regardless of STI testing status, it’s not ok to…

Our Video Masturbation shoots are different to our girl-girl shoots, and we need to keep them looking different as well. That means, we don’t want models to do things that “blur the lines” between the two Shoot Types (by keeping them separate, we ensure more work for models and Shoot Producers – and happier customers!).

In a Video Masturbation shoot, it’s never appropriate to give oral stimulation to your partner’s vulva or anus (ie, “go down on her”, “rimming”)… and it’s not ok to receive, either 😉

 

If one or both of you have not been recently tested for STI’s…

If one or both of you have not been recently tested for STI, less-sexual touching is appropriate.

Fluid swapping is not ok. Some examples of things that are not ok include;

• Touching your partner’s vagina or anus
• Licking your finger after inserting it into your shoot partner
• Licking or touching a sex toy that has been inside, or is likely to go inside your shoot partner
• Rubbing your partner’s crotch with your panties

Kissing is ok, as the risk of STI transmission from kissing is quite low (but there is still a small risk).

If you have both been recently tested for STI’s

If you have both been recently tested for STI’s and your results are all-clear, before the shoot you’ll ask your shoot partner to see their STI test results, and they’ll do the same for you. The Shoot Producer will do this with you, and go through the list of tests and results.

Body-fluid-swapping is acceptable in this circumstance – if you are both comfortable with it. Because giving and receiving oral sex is never appropriate on Video Masturbation shoots (we save that for our girl-girl shoots), that means that licking fingers inserted into your partner (or sharing a sex toy) or similar things that involve body fluid swapping are fine. 🍯

Discuss what you’re comfortable with with your shoot partner

People who discuss their sexual preferences have better sex lives, and talking about sex is pretty sexy all by itself!

So, before the cameras start rolling, chat with your partner about what you’re comfortable with. Your Shoot Producer can help begin this discussion, but it’s really got to come from you and your shoot partner.

Be honest and share what you’d like the other person to do. Be clear. Some examples;

“As I’m getting close to orgasm, I love having my boobs squeezed – how about you?”

“I really don’t like my nipples being pinched, but kissing is good. Can I touch your nipples in the shoot?”.

Just as you will ask her, your shoot partner will ask for your consent, and respect your stated boundaries. It’s certainly fine with us if you discuss your changing boundaries during the shoot (to be more, or less permissive).

What sort of interaction is good?

The best interaction is simply, things that you both enjoy. Some examples include;

• Hair brushing, braiding, or similar
• Back / neck / foot massage
• Hand holding
• Thigh humping, or similar
• Breast and nipple stimulation
• Kissing
• Fingering, assisting her masturbate
• Inserting and removing a sex toy

Remember, it’s never ok to give or receive oral sex in a Video Masturbation shoot.

Bring your ID’s

Like for all shoots we make of you, please bring your Primary and Secondary ID to Video Masturbation shoot days. More info.

Bring suitable clothes

Bring a variety of clothes, as you’ll need to be in a different outfit for each of the shoots you’re appearing in today (likely a Solo and two Double Video Masturbation shoot, unless you’ve told us otherwise or the schedule does not allow it for some other reason).

More info on the clothes that are suitable for our shoots page.

Bring appropriate props

Think about what you usually do when you masturbate, be specific: we’d like to recreate those elements within your shoot.

Bring the props you need to feel comfortable in the space and make it your own and to have a nice orgasm. For example;

• If you usually watch a video on your phone when you masturbate, bring your phone and headphones 📱 + 🎧 (we can’t have the audio of the scene you’re watching being recorded in our video)
• If you have a “pillow mist” you spray on your pillow before a masturbation session, bring the pillow mist along for the shoot
• If there’s a passage from a book you read to “get yourself in the mood”, bring the book 🔖
• If you like to rub moisturiser all over your body to relax, bring the stuff you usually use 🧴

If you usually orgasm using a big powerful mains-electricity-powered toy, but are going to be demonstrating an “old fashioned” hand orgasm on camera for this shoot, consider weaning yourself off the vibrating toy in the lead up to the shoot. See also;

Can I use my vibrator?

 

Video Masturbation shoot days can seem a little chaotic – there’s a lot of shoots happening, several models, lots of paperwork, clothes, mics, lighting, cameras, cables and props to manage, so your Shoot Producer will be quite busy making sure the technical requirements are met, while making sure everyone is comfortable and happy.

You can help a lot by keeping the space neat and clean – putting your rubbish in the bin, cleaning up after yourself after making a cup of tea, keeping your personal items in one area, packing up your stuff as soon as it’s done with; that kind of thing. Your Shoot Producer will probably appreciate a hand to carry the gear to their car or down the stairs at the end of the day, too!

It’s great if you help capture some Backstage images (both taking them, and appearing in them) with all the other models on set that day.

When you arrive 🚆

On the morning of the shoot day when you arrive, you’ll participate in a Grooming check (same as for your Solo shoot). Before each shoot (typically three) you’ll need to complete a set of Homonoia paperwork for each of the shoots and a “Before” handwritten bio, and the wrap up stuff afterwards, again the same as for your Solo shoot (including the “After” handwritten bio, but one for each of the Video Masturbation shoots you make).

Before each shoot, you’ll work with the Shoot Producer to select clothes to wear – just the same as for a Solo shoot.

There’ll likely be a break between each shoot you make, while the Shoot Producer sets up a new scene (perhaps in a different room, perhaps for a Double shoot for someone else). In the down time, you can work on your handwritten bios, chat with the other models (quietly, if another shoot is being recorded!), or go outside for a short walk – but be sure to let your Shoot Producer know, and be back by the agreed time so the next shoot can start without delay.

Bringing a book or similar is a good idea for the downtime – or just your phone, so long as it’s muted.

But when nobody is making a Video Masturbation shoot, it’s a lot more social and fun. There’ll be some group Backstage pics too, and you’re welcome to make some Backstage selfies as well.

Because the video camera is “static” for Video Masturbation shoots (on a tripod, not moving), there’s an opportunity to capture better audio than we do for other shoots 🎤🎙️. The mics will be mounted on stands and pointing at you as close as possible (but, juuuuuust out of sight of the camera). There’ll be cables from each mic to the camera.

There’ll probably be some lights and reflectors to expose the scene correctly, and make sure you look good, and cables for the lights 🔌. There’ll probably be some “set dressing” to make sure the scene is appropriately colourful. 🎏

Overall, it will look like chaos from your perspective, but the final product will look pretty good!

Well, whatever you like! You probably deserve at least a cupcake 🧁, or maybe a beer 🍺 (gotta replenish all the energy you spent, right?).

If you already participate on our boards, our customers would love to hear about your experience. It’s ok to post images from the set that you took, so long as all the people in the images all gave their permission (including the Shoot Producer).

No worries. 🤙

When we offer you this Shoot Type, just let us know you’d prefer not to. If you change your mind, no problem, let us know, and we’ll likely be able to schedule one in.

We’ll still offer you our other Shoot Types (and you can choose to accept or decline those offers as well).

🎥 Video Masturbation shoots show the model masturbating and having a real orgasm.

They are shot for video only (that means, there are no still images shot, apart from a few “Backstage” images).

The video camera is on a tripod, and the Shoot Producer is not in the room. You start clothed, touch yourself and remove your clothes while stimulating yourself. We aim to show your masturbation routine – what you normally do when you’re alone and masturbating (perhaps with some small changes to suit our technical requirements).

The camera does not move, and the scene is captured in one shot (that is, the recording does not stop until the end of the shoot). While it depends on how long you take to “get the job done” 👷, typically these shoots take 15 to 30 minutes.

The camera is set up to show most or all of your body. You don’t move around too much – for example, you can’t start lying down then stand up, or move from the sofa to the bed (otherwise, the tripod-mounted camera would not be able to see you after you moved). But, you can sit up / lean back, open and close your legs, roll over, stretch and relax into it.

Your Shoot Producer will discuss if you should ignore the camera, or stare into it, or some variation of both.

Some Video Masturbation shoots are of one model alone (Solo), others are of two models together (Double).

We have a “quota” for each Shoot Type we produce (that means, an upper limit on the number of times a model can appear in that Shoot Type).

Video Masturbation shoots are limited to a maximum of one Solo, and two Double Video Masturbation shoots, per model.

We make “Solo” Video Masturbation shoots, as well as “Double” Video Masturbation shoots. As for all our shoots, you can choose what work you want to do with us, and if you only want to do a Solo and not a Double (or, a Double and not a Solo), that’s not a problem, just let us know.

In a Double, you’ll be on a bed, sofa, or similar with another model 👯‍♀️. You’ll chat a bit (about masturbation, mostly), undress, check eachother out, masturbate (more info), have an orgasm (at least one each, but more is always fine).

You may want to know, Can I choose who the other model is?

Your Shoot Producer will select a space in consultation with you, and talk with both of you to find a position that’s comfortable for you both and likely to be interesting for our customers. Here are some example settings we’ve shot in the past.

Of course, your next question is…

How much do I interact with the other model?
