Good point Terry, a few 'porn stars' have crossed the divide in the States into mainstream TV and Film. Here as far as I am aware it has never happened. Why I here you ask - well because the business here is shunned by the 'proper' film and television world as being worthless scum !
Performers in America have an ability to learn lines and act probably because they have a big film industry there and many would prefer to be doing that anyway. Here I cannot think of one girl ever who could learn lines or act to any exceptable level. Don't get me wrong, I am not blaming the girls. It's just not a natural thing for them to do. Where as in the States it seems it is.
I'm sure Mr 'Throng' will agree with me.
I know this through my own experiences as well of trying in vain to get 'normal' TV and/or Film camera work. It seems nearly 30 years working with stills or video camera's counts for diddlysquat in the mainstream ! The simple fact that I can do the job is meaningless ! The flip side of this is these know all Sky/BBC guys that come onto porn set's occasionally and try and shoot porn and make themselves look idiots every time because they don't know what they are doing. I worked with one this year and he was sacked by the producer. I've worked with 3 of these so called experts in my 30 years and not one of them has produced anything of much use. Frank will also remember one of them.
