I'm hearing more and more stories of talent booking gigs directly when their agent is telling them there's nothing available.

When the studios and talent are cutting them out of the loop, due to the over market rates they're insisting on, they'll either modify their rates or close the doors.

I agree with Tony on the modeling end, what I'm seeing from this end is similar. I would consider influx of new "adult" models to be about flat. However, we have been getting a huge uptick in models willing to do swimwear, lingerie, topless, etc for at least the last year.

I interpret that as the young girls need the money, but they're pretty savvy about knowing whatever they do is out there forever and may be seen by dad, uncle george or any future employer.

Hookers and strippers....not my thing, so I dont know for sure, but it would make sense that everyone's entertainment budget is reduced. And thus they feel it.
