• What niches do you feel are currently under served
I wouldn't consider it a niche, but what's needed today is a return to what made LP great, which is to consistently bring in young, beautiful Slavic girls.
The market is currently completely saturated with Latin and even African-American girls. In other words, if someone wants to succeed, they should do the exact opposite because there are no longer any hardcore DP/DAP scenes with Slavic girls, especially Russian ones. Before, that was the most common thing, and indeed, it was what sold the most.
• What you think is missing that bigger studios do not offer
The big studios these days offer nothing, they don't even try anymore; they just bring in the first girl they find and film the scene.
Since GONZO closed, LP/AV porn is dead.
• What kind of content you wish there was more of
What I said in the first reply.
If someone wants to succeed, they have to bring in Slavic girls, especially Russian ones, to do hardcore DP/DAP scenes.
Obviously, this won't work either if you don't have a good team of monster cocks. GONZO had an excellent team of monster cocks and also brought in gorgeous, new girls constantly, which is why he did so well.
In short, both things are essential: young, beautiful Slavic girls and a team of monster cocks.
• Which categories you think could dominate in the next few years
I find this irrelevant. I don't think it's about categories; it's about maintaining good quality over the long term, and that's achieved by consistently bringing in beautiful girls who get pounded hard by guys with the biggest dicks available.
The categories will remain the same: DP/DAP/bukkake.
• Which studios you feel are close to perfect and why
Not only is no study close to perfection, but on the contrary, they're close to total imperfection.
As I said before, if you want to succeed, do the opposite of what the studies here do. If you want to fail, copy what they do.
• Which studios you think are declining and why
This is related to the previous question, and the answer is absolutely EVERYONE.
The scenes are getting worse, the girls are getting worse, the actors are getting worse, everything is getting worse.

I think lancelot scouts very well but maybe the production could be better. In your opinion, what would be a perfect type of production something high-end like vixen or more raw, but of course filmed very professionally in 4K.

I think you have to approach this in a manner that maximizes your resources - adds little things to take care of big problems - and looks honestly at what is out there and then figure out what isn't being served - and why people will flock to your thing if it indeed hits this mark.
I think it's pretty obvious, overall, but I'm going to lay it out in terms that the market can back me up on. This backs up (pretty strongly) everything Chimpy was saying, but still, it's absolutely relevant.
Here's how we're going to approach this. We're going to ask some very basic questions - and the truth will become apparent.
Alright, looking at the market that you want to enter as it exists right now, what do you see?
A bunch of sex-is-my-main-job, plastic-filled, tattoo'd-like-a-pirate, awkward-plastic-surgery, either-too-fat-or-too-thin, American-football-faced women. They're not in every scene, but they constitute a good 70 - 80% of the "filler" scenes between the girls who people might actually want to see. These are your AGO's, your DP-Divas, often some of the South American studios now (sadly), and, even though he's trying his absolute best to side-step it, it's pretty much impossible to, so Andrew as well (GIO's old digs).
It's like a who's-who these days - where, if you're really lucky - one new actually beautiful face will enter this section of the industry per year and then actually stick around for the full ladder-rung breaking. It just ... doesn't happen anymore, or it very rarely does.
Alright, looking at the market that you want to enter as it exists right now, where are people spending their money?
I saw a Slavic girl on a webcam site - like, as if a vision came down from heaven - and she earned $12,000 in three hours as a bunch of monkeys typed furiously at her, and a bunch of Indians typed right back at them. And you know what she was doing during those three hours? Swaying back and forth. That was it. No dancing. No strip-tease. No bra-strap getting loosened. Nothing. She did absolutely nothing for three hours straight and earned what a high earning professional (engineer, doctor, etc.) does in an entire month.
Why am I mentioning this? Because - because she earned $12,000 in three hours - there are countless really hot 9.5/10 and 9/10's that earn a couple hundred dollars a month. I know a girl who's smoking hot - and she's always broke - and then she goes online and says, "Oh, new content for sale!" And then gets next to nothing for it. There is a gigantic bevy of incredibly hot girls who earn nothing - but still perform - simply because they think that "they're going to make it one day." Some of these girls take dildos the size of small people up their ass as well, so ... shooting a DAP scene with the biggest and most hung guys wouldn't be a problem for them.
The thing is - how do you lure them in? Well - Dreddxxx (with Okichloeo) seems to have figured out that you extend the olive-branch of branding towards them. You release the scene on your platform - you get the money - but it's the girl's OF and sign that's on the scene during the entire duration of it - NOT your studio name. And you know what? It doesn't fucking matter - because the minute people go searching for that scene - they'll find out who shot it one way or the other. Just like people will typically find out what girl is in a scene even if it's not stated anywhere when they see a clip somewhere. Your studio will absolutely get discovered by shooting hot-girls, even if it's the girl's name instead of your own that's on the screen during the entirety of it.
Alright, looking at the "product" that exists right now, why would a girl want to go to your studio, and, at the same time, why would people want to buy your scene?
If all you're thinking of doing is being like, "Well - I'm going to have a couple of guys in the scene - and then I'm going to have the girl - and then they're going to fuck (whatever it is they do - even if they do all of it) - and then ... that's it. Just stop right here. Go home. And if you are home right now, go take a bus around the city, and then come back home again so that my telling you to go home will have the effect it should.
You have got to do something to differentiate yourself in the market as a whole. Even with all the studio closures out there - there's still way too much fucking porn out there. There are something like 3 million girls on OF - I mean - you ready to compete with 3 million people? Of course they're not a studio - but it doesn't matter - because unless you're offering something nobody else has got - then it's just a mtter of who the customer finds first. You - or one of the other thousands of people offering what they're already offering.
Same goes for the girls themselves - they might be open to the idea of doing a DP or DAP, even if they're amazingly gorgeous, provided the very essence of what it is they do will have a chance of getting a large audience out there. And then - all you need to do is do that once or twice - make a couple of really big scenes - and then the girls will be a lot more receptive to coming and shooting for you. Because you have the opportunity to make their brand more visible. At that point - you have a lot more leverage.
Starting out - you may have to just, straight up, pay a lot more out of pocket for the girl, or, what I would do, give the majority of the profits to the girl (have a contract where she gets up to XXXXX amount - and then afterwards receives a percentage of all sales). You need to do that though. The first scenes of a studio determine whether it's for real - or whether it's just a quick thing that's going to disappear quickly.
Alright, looking at the market that exists on Analvids, how often should you release a scene?
I'm not suggesting you release your content on Analvids - what I'm saying is that - releasing a ton of scenes that barely cover the costs in profits by forcing yourself to release scenes all the time is ... a risky, and also exhausting move. Realistically, you probably would only need to release a scene once every two weeks. So long as you made it special. Like have a really gorgeous girl - and then make the scene itself unique.
So many studios just release, essentially, the same scene over and over and over again, but have a different girl in it. Pretty much all of the studios do this. And it gets boring. It gets tired. There are some "universal formats" which do work great (Castingcouch-HD for example), but, for the most part, if you're putting the girls through the same routine week after week - the super hot girl's won't be as receptive to joining (because they'll just be another number in a long line of them) - and the audience will essentially peak and then never go beyond that point.
There's so much more to say about this - and I could go on about it - and ideas for it - but you need to make every scene different and special. That can be really difficult to do, but the pay-off would be unreal. Because people would never know what to expect, and nothing garners attention like mystery.
Legalporno, back in the day, could get away with just throwing a beautiful girl to a pack of rabid dogs time and again, because the beauty of the girl was top-tier enough for that to work and be affordable. But, those days are gone. So, yeah. You're going to have to get creative.
I've already gone on more than long enough here - and there's so much more to cover. I will make a quick note:
Chimpy was right - the minute you get peeing, puking, prolapse, vomit, fisting, and pretty much any circus-act exhibitionism involved - is the minute the passion disappears out of the scene - and the whole thing becomes a side-show for the mentally ill (a vast minority of the market is actually -that- mentally ill) to enjoy, and for the greater portion of the market (the 98%) to essentially avoid.
Don't do that shit. It's gross. You'll lose 99% of the attractive women who might've wanted to shoot a scene with you - and you'll lose 98% of the market that actually was interested in seeing hot people fuck - and not go to bathroom on each other.
Other than that - you gotta be realistic about what you're facing out there. Unless you approach this with an actual plan - that involves an actual unique idea - and have the steps worked out for how you're going to get the girls (that people actually want to fucking jack it hard to - like, OF girls who are fucking young, fucking gorgeous, and like fucking big cocks/dildos) alongside how best to utilize their particular look - then - it honestly isn't worth it.
If you want an example of someone who did this - Nick Whitehard with NRX. But, he had all the Russian girls. But he paid them extremely well. And they stuck around to demolish those ladder rungs. So ...
I dunno, man. If your idea is to just go out there and shoot porn, then, best of luck to you. But, like, you're entering an industry where there's 3 million different small time companies all grabbing that same limited pool of cash. If any part of your plan involves not-thinking-about-it-because-you've-got-a-good-feeling or it'll-all-work-out-somehow - then bail now.
There is so much missing from the market right now. But that isn't by accident. That isn't because somebody didn't come around and say, "Oh, hey! I know! I'm going to shoot really hardcore porn with a bunch of beautiful Russian and Slavic teens, her-durrrrr!" It's because the (very real) market forces at play right now have put -YOU- at the bottom of the barrel. These girls are out there working for themselves. Unless you have a (VERY REAL) plan on how to navigate the realities that already exist - unless you're knee-deep in beautiful girls willing to shoot porn for you right now - then you better come up with a rock-solid plan that literally invents something people absolutely want and need (which is where you'll also be going against AI in).
So, I don't want to burst your bubble or anything, but a lot of studios have closed recently. Headed by people who were in the industry for decades. Unless you come through with something great, like, all around mind-blowing fantastic - then - maybe it's a good idea to hold onto that investment.

What I'm missing is hardcore erotica. What I mean with that is combining softcore esthetics with gangbang fucking, preferably with young Slavic models. There is a scene with Sofi Smile that sort of represents what I'm after here: https://pornbox.com/application/watch-page/47550
The intro is fantastic, except for the playground bit, but the scene afterwards could have been a lot nicer. Location matters and I can't stand ugly studios without depth. NRX often had exceptional locantions which I think often gets overlooked.

Thanks for the tip, but more new girls who aren’t known.

This is what I mean by premium porn without niche elements. This scene perfectly reflects what I think would be a hit.
That scene with Sofi is one of my all-time favorites. If Sofi had done a DAP in that scene, it would probably be my number one scene of all time.
Also, Sofi was recruited from webcam sites. It must be one of the best places to recruit Slavic girls; it's absolutely teeming with beautiful Slavic girls there. You just need a lot of money to convince them to do these kinds of scenes.
