Ever wondered what a typical day looks like for a porn star? Well, one porn star has now revealed all... and the truth might surprise you.
Porn star Danny D works in the industry as an actor, director and producer.
His current employment is worlds away from his previous job - working on a building site - with the change in career coming after a friend saw him naked while on holiday.

Since making the switch, Danny hasn't looked back, however, he's keen to stress that there's a lot more that goes on behind the scenes when making adult films.
Revealing what a typical day looks like for a porn star, Danny revealed there's actually lot of paperwork to go through before anyone takes their clothes off.
"So generally, on a porn shoot, everyone will arrive on set, we will have all been pre-tested for STI tests and stuff like that before anyone enters set," he reveals.
"Once everyone's paperwork is signed off, we've signed in the girl, we have a full legal disclaimer and paperwork and everything that we have to run through."

Once the paperwork is signed off, there's even more prep to go through, with actors going through make-up and then rehearsing the scene.
"From there, we'll usually then run into the acting where we go through the dialogue of the script and sort of get everything out of the way up until the sex," he said.
At this point, you'd expect the actors would be ready for shooting right?
Well, it turns out the action sometimes doesn't take place until after they've had a lunch break.

"At that point, we have a break, prep for sex, where the guys and girls go and clean themselves and have some lunch, whatever they need to do before sex," Danny said.

Nothing more important than eating before a hard day's work right?
When shooting finally begins, Danny explains they first take 'sex stills' before creating the video.
"The sex stills basically are the photos of the scene, but they definitely help the performers just find the flow," he said.
"So rather than just calling action, and two people are gonna go at it, we kind of use the stills to maybe guide the direction of the scene. So we know what position is going to flow to and what positions are comfortable or uncomfortable for certain performers."
Once filming is wrapped, performers can expect to end their day with another round of paperwork before being free to go home.
Riveting stuff right?

Danny adds that creating porn is definitely not as glamorous as people might think, revealing he often has photographers 'literally six inches away from my balls'.
"Most people's perception of porn is is like a giant orgy, or just like a huge gangbang. And just everyone goes there and has sex and the camera man gets involved. And after that he has a go at it," he said.
"They couldn't be further away from the truth. A lot of people might think it is glamorous and stuff, but it doesn't always end that way."
