Hi Steemit! I’m Lily Campbell, and this is my #introduceyourself post! It’s going to be a quick one, I’m just sitting at a bar at XBIZ LA before a party I’m headed to starts.
So- I’m a pornographer! A virtual reality pornographer as well. I also do virtual reality development and lots of other creative things that are non-porn (like photography, videography, directing, producing, speaking, consulting, writing, creative and team direction, picking my nose, etc). I have focused primarily on the adult industry for over 13 years, but I also love being creative/working on non-sexy stuff too- but who’s to say what’s sexy? Is nerding out on crypto sexy? ;)
So a bit about me:
I focus on encouraging folks to embrace themselves and what they like. I love feeling like I’ve helped someone feel even an eensy bit better about themselves. My work in the adult industry has this at it’s core. I love helping my models feel beautiful and natural.
I also love doing empowering boudoir/dude-oir, art, and couples' photography.
I’m at XBIZ LA to speak at this event, “Ethical Porn in Practice”: https://www.xbiz.com/news/232831/mindbrowse-com-sssh-com-to-host-ethical-porn-in-practice-at-xbiz-2018
On the tech side of things- I create VR content, as well as the camera rigs that I film with! I developed rigs from scratch for YanksVR.com, which I am co-owner and Director for. We’re up for multiple AVN and XBIZ awards again this year. How cool!
Aside from that, I also have an art gallery show coming up that focuses on erotic photography and videography with the theme “Empowering Erotic Communication”. I’ll be hanging up prints for the month of January in Portland, Oregon at Sanctuary- https://pdxsanctuary.com
Ok, here’s a link to my personal website with more info about me- gotta go soon- https://lilycampbellmedia.com
Hope ya’ll are awesome. More soon. 
Maybe the VICE SMT is something for you, have you heard about it?

Dude-oir is a great term, I was having a conversation with a friend about the concept of DILF (like a MILF but a Dad) last night which led me to perusing some DILF pictures on instragram and elsewhere, and let me just say, a lot of these guys could have used your help ;) You are going to do great here! In addition to the adult/NSFW content that you have, I am sure tutorial posts on videography, rig design/construction, managing photo and video shoots, etc., would go over really well. I am super stoked you are on board! Yay!!!

Thanks Carl! I am so stoked to be here-thanks for your support! Dude-oir is really interesting to me as there is so much creative potential and room for improvement/exploration. So much opportunity for both creative silliness and pure “sexy” too, which can come in many forms. I like showing the “sexy” of each person according to their individual persona/body/how they shine(as well as fun shots that are likely cliché enough to get some chuckles if that fits the nature of the person).
Also- sweet to hear that insight into production posts interest you- that’s in my wheelhouse for sure-yay! Thank you for the great ideas!
Xoxo!

Mr @carlgnash sent me your way as i'm on the board of one the new Decentraland districts (The University). If you havent already checked that out, have a look. Decentraland is effectively a VR world that runs on the blockchain (in the same way that steemit runs on a blockchain). Means it is totally free from regulation which is something you may be interested in.

Hey Lily! We have things in common :) I mean aside from the obvious... shh, don't tell anyone, but I pick my nose too! Though I think I've done it on a fetish video before, so maybe its not a secret after all. Glad to see you here + excited for our projects!

I was perhaps one of the pioneers of adult vr, which is odd and neat. My experience is definitely VR from a “figure it out yourself” space. My experience is certainly shared with other folks who scrambled to figure it out too though!

When setting up for a particular scene, what sort of coaching or dialogue do you like to give to your performers? How scripted is your video? i.e. "We'll start with a slow undressing, then move to showing off and posing, then you'll grind on the corner of the table," etc.
Is that a thing? Or do you let the performer do whatever they want?

Unusual line of work- I bet you have some entertaining stories!
Welcome to Steemit! It's got a steep learning curve, but it's worth it in the long run if you keep putting in the time! Just know that it will take quite a while before you start getting attention and followers. The secret to success? Keep posting high quality content regularly, and make sure to search out other people's posts, read them, and give relevant comments.
Tagging is extremely important. Always make sure to use all five possible tags, and to keep them relevant. You can always just tag something "blog" or "photography" or something else really general (so long as it's still relevant) to fill the quota if you need to- most of your tags should be established ones, though one or two less used ones are fine.
Posting more than four times a day can reduce your potential rewards, as well as turning off potential users. (I aim for one post per day most of the time.) Consistency is important, though, so you should try to post often.
Always make sure to attach a photo to your posts! You should also have a finished profile: Write a description, add a profile picture and a banner- neither needs to be of you, necessarily, but you should have something- and set a website.
There are a lot of really good resources out there for minnows (new users). You should check out the following groups and services, they offer a lot of valuable resources to new users:
@thesteemengine (Check this one out first- they're an extremely supportive group.)
@qurator (These guys offer an excellent liftime upvote to accounts that post consistent quality content.)
@originalworks (Whenever you write an original post, tag this account- they'll verify it's original and upvote you.)
@steembasicincome (Another lifetime upvote option.)
@steemstem (The biggest and best STEM curation group in the game. If you're interested in writing or reading about science, check these guys out!)
@geopolis (A fairly new science curation group, this one's dedicated to the study of the Earth.)
@ocd (A curation group that seeks out undervalued new writers.)
And, again, the biggest thing is just patience. Breakout successes are incredibly rare on Steemit- you've got to find your way there through perseverance and hard work. It takes time, but you'll eventually succeed if you put in the work.
Please feel free to repost this guide on the posts of other minnows you run into!
