Afterglow

To create a safe and respectful environment, afterglow has a code of conduct for the entire film team. There also is an extra person on set, an intimacy coach, who makes sure that performers feel comfortable and that no personal boundaries are crossed.

Afterglow pays at or above industry standard rates for performers.

(STI prevention / testing; access to safer sex supplies)

Afterglow ensures all performers are tested within 14 days prior to the shoot and allows performers to decide their preferences with regards to safer sex.

… regarding practices, upload, shooting partners:

For each afterglow production, pre- and post-production interviews are conducted with the performers. In the intake interviews, the afterglow team goes through the script and discusses what acts will be performed as well as the performers’ boundaries. On the day of the shoot, these boundaries are discussed again to see if anything has changed. In the interviews after the shoot performers can give their feedback. Stopping the shoot is possible at any time by using a safe word.

On afterglow you can see many familiar faces of the indie porn scene. The performers range from straight to queer and very diverse people and bodies are on display, though almost no older people.

We are curious to see whether afterglow will also become more diverse as the media library grows. The latest Sex with Disability eduporn sounds promising!

There are no problematic categories at afterglow. The movies have tags, these in turn are sorted into the following categories. For example, the categories include “Act” where you can then find tags like “Nipple Play”, “Handjob” or “Gangbang”.

Unfortunately, there is no overview of the performers on the page, and they are not tagged under the videos either.

In the “backstage” section, you get behind-the-scenes insights into the afterglow productions and also get to know the performers a little better through interviews.

At afterglow the wording stands out in a positive way . It is explicit, but not vulgar, rather descriptive. This applies also for the descriptions of the videos. You can really tell that afterglow is all about sexual empowerment and learning.

Afterglow is ad-free.

The site is easy to use and has a nice design, the videos also play through without buffering or other hiccups. Unfortunately you can’t search for individual performers and there is no search function at all.

Most of the films are purchased, you can see which production company has made them. However you only see the name of the studio.
