Are videos helpful when hiring escorts?

Just looking at his G-rated pictures on rentmen, I'd pass him by, but yeah, after seeing the video I think he'd be delightful! Too bad he won't be taking new customers after July .

 

Correction - he'll be taking new clients, but cutting back on advertising.

This is sort of an aside but seems related. I've been thinking about making an "intro video." What would you say makes a good intro video? What would you want to hear or see or know? How long would you expect it to be?

I love your quick videos on twitter.... I have a few questions about that "perv: t-shirt...

Only the ones where the escort speaks and smiles.

I think any piece of information/evidence is useful in order to make the hiring decision.

Any piece of information/evidence can be faked or misleading.

The Rentmen interview videos were very helpful in making decisions. There was a sense of the personality and attitude in them. The many videos of the escort jerking off in the shower or with the TV playing in the background-- not so much.

I think like most I generally will read the reviews an escort might have (particularly when that comes back). But also, as mentioned, many of the pics on Rent.men show stills from produced vids some of the guys have made. Once I know the vids, I will try to track down either scenes or clips. I know that most of the vids have been directed so you might not get the actual movement or even speech patterns, however in most cases you get a sense of the body. Sometimes the guys have changed a bit from the vid (bulked up/slimmed down/put on some weight) in most cases you will get a good body idea.

I love being able to see a short, not-explicit video with the gent saying something (ideally something beyond the info/text available in their listing) that gives me a sense of their vibe/attitude.
