Role: Pornographer

With the spread of the coronavirus, countries around the world have gone into lockdown, and businesses everywhere have had to change their working environments. Most have utilised remote working and implemented social distancing to adapt to the pandemic, and many have now returned to some form of normality.

Social distancing and porn, however, do not go hand in hand. With the changes brought about by coronavirus, productions and film sets have closed, leading to lots of performers turning to sites like OnlyFans to subsidise their income. 

So, will this move away from larger-scale productions become a fundamental shift in porn? Or, in an industry already used to regular and rigorous testing, will it perhaps lead the way in the return to normality in the workplace?

In this interview, I talk to pornographer Holly Randall about porn on lockdown. We discuss how the pandemic has reshaped the industry, testing and precautions and sexual assault & racism in porn.
