What are the laws governing the filming of adult movies in NC? What should I know before I film?

The laws regarding obscenity charges etc are not even state laws usually but are set at the local level. I live in Georgia with a similar political climate and here there is no police coming to people's homes to check for porn. What I would do though to be safe is sell any such movies online because then what you sell becomes interstate commerce and is only subject to federal law through the interstate commerce clause in the US constitution.

Yes In Singapore it is Nc 16. haha. SO however sadly I am overaged and i can watch it. Ok dude if you really want to watch it either get ur parents to help you buy the tickets using a credit card or either get a older friend to buy the tickets for you who is older then you. Then you can watch it. did it before when i was younger. I used to watch m18 movies too.!

In the old days, you had to "work" for a company who would pay you a fixed price and maybe royalties (if you're lucky) for a video.  Now video and photographic equipment is so cheap that just about anyone can afford to go into this industry as a producer.  The hardest part will be finding "employees" to work with.  After that, it is also difficult to sell your products because there is so much competition.  Consider a niche market that isn't just plain-old sex and also isn't so weird as to scare customers away.  Also, many parts of the country make it illegal to produce and sell porn.  Make sure it's legal in your jurisdiction or you could lose your shirt (excuse the pun)!

It has nothing to do with law.  The fact is, the movie is private property, and so is the movie theater.  The ratings were established to help keep parents from sueing the bejeezus out of film studios....same reason movie theaters won't let you in to see the R rated movies.  \n\nNow, when it's XXX, then the law gets involved.

Porno that's pg-14?  What are you considering porno?  Dawson's Creek?  Maybe you should see an actual porno before throwing the word around.

They do allow "mature" content, requiring users to log in and attest that they're over 18 (by the mere click of a button) to view the movie, but nothing outright pornographic (nor even something like a topless female)--the mature content I've seen amounts to some lascivious dancing.\n\nAs for justification--well, they're a private company, and they get to set the rules as to what they will and won't run.

not sure of any exact laws but as long as you are not lying about something or plagiarizing you should be fine, also if you are posting adult stuff i think you have to have a pass word thing set up to make sure kids are not getting on to it

It isn't just law in North Carolina. It's law everywhere I know of.  \n\nWould you want to buy something someone else has worn? Consider how many bacteria and other nasties that humans carry just on their HANDS - then consider what might be on swimwear and undergarments... YUCK!!\n\nBuy carefully and use the store's change room and try on OVER your underwear and you will be safe.

It was filmed in New York, yes.  You used to be able to go on Sex and the City tours around NYC.  I'm not sure if they do that any more.

Clean Flicks purchases movies on tape, and then edits out all the sex, violence, and "bad" language before renting them out to customers. The rental chain is seeking a court declaration that its practices are perfectly legal - and not a violation of federal copyright law, as the directors reportedly believe.\n\nThe chain has emphasized its First Amendment rights. But the government is not a party to the case, as is generally required under the First Amendment; it is the directors, not the state, who the chain anticipates will try to stop its editing practices. Accordingly, the chain's best defense probably does not come directly from the First Amendment. Rather, it derives from the First-Amendment-inspired "fair use" exception to the copyright law, and similar exceptions to related laws under which the directors can sue.\n\nUnsurprisingly, The Directors' Guild of America believes that what Clean Flicks is doing is far from "fair use." Indeed, it has decried the suit as an effort "to legitimize the unauthorized editing and alteration of movies."\n\nWhich side is correct? Does Clean Flicks have the right to edit properly purchased movies as it sees fit, before renting them out? Or does a director have the right to ensure that a movie remains edited in the ways he or she has approved?\n\nPut another way, what Clean Flicks is doing may be anathema from an artistic point of view (I certainly believe that to be the case), but is it also illegal? I will argue that the legal question is much more difficult than it may seem at first, because Clean Flicks's practices resemble many long-accepted examples of "fair use" in important ways.\n\nThe Directors, Studios, and Actors Have Strong Legal Claims\n\nSince the DGA has not yet filed a countersuit, it is not clear exactly which claims it will bring against Clean Flicks. But it has already raised a number of possible bases for a suit, several of which appear to be strong.\n\nFirst, the DGA can argue that Clean Flicks' business amounts to an ongoing violation of copyright laws. By editing out content from certain movies before renting them out, Clean Flicks arguably exceeds its license to use the copyrighted movies it had purchased.\n\nSecond, the DGA can argue that Clean Flicks, in marketing its edited films, violates trademarks. Phrases such as the studio's name, or a certain tag line used to promote the movie on the video box, are trademarked, and Clean Flicks is arguably using them deceptively if it connects them with a movie edited to be substantially different from the one the studio made.

I think the best way would be to put an advertisement in an adult paper...like the "L.A. X-PRESS" FOR EXAMPLE. mANY WOMEN DO REALLY LOOK THROUGH THOSE PAPERS FOR MOVIE WORK...AND HOPEFULLY YOU'LL FIND YOUR 400+ LB. LADIES THIS WAY. gOOD LUCK WITH THIS...AND WOULD YOU CONSIDER CASTING ME TO BE IN THE MOVIE TOO? I loooove big women.

according to the north carrolina laws, i broke three at one time and am now married to the lady. \n\nIn N.C it's if two unmarried people check into a hotell room they are now married. It is illegal to have sex between the two beds in a motel room, and While having sex, you must stay in the missionary position and have the shades pulled.\n\nIn South carolina.\nEvery adult male must bring a rifle to church on Sunday in order to ward off Indian attacks. I never did that.\n\nIt is considered an offense to get a tattoo. OOPS!\n\nLancaster County: It is illegal to dance in public. I LIVE HERE, i'm screwed!\n\nWhen approaching a four way or blind intersection in a non-horse driven vehicle you must stop 100 ft from the intersection and discharge a firearm into the air to warn horse traffic. NEVER DID THAT EITHER. OUTA TRY IT THOUGH!

I'm sorry but this question is inappropriate. If you are curious, go rent a porno film.

I have no idea where nc is, but I would doubt if there are any stringent regulations about delivering, other tham making sure that the delivery vehicles are properly registered, insured and taxed.

I think it is illegal to send across State lines in the USA. There was a case where a person sent pornographic images to another person here in Tennessee from another state. The person was arrested there. This was not child porno but the person that sent it was a entity. A company. so for individuals it may not be the case. Sorry I can not be of any help just my thoughts only.

OK, guys.... The answer is that pornography is a business, licensed by the state and they pay taxes.... It follows the film industry guidelines making it legal..... \nProstitution is not permitted except in 16 counties in Nevada where it is a licensed business just like any other retail store.  I am not joking here.. \nIn Clark County Nevada, Las Vegas, prostitution is illegal therefore you can't get a business license and you don't pay taxes.  \nIt is economics people...... \nNow, the difference between porno and hookers.... Not much except as a general rule, the porn stars are a little better groomed and cared for.  They make the producer's very rich so they are treated much better than the hookers on the street.  \nPorn stars also get W-4 forms at the end of year to pay taxes on their earnings just like anyone else.  Hookers, no....
