On Ossiana Tepfenhart's Content Creation (And Something People Saw Cumming)
So, it's time to talk turkey .
So, Exxxotica was not just a moment where I got to run amok and interview porn stars. This is the convention I go to when I want to really meditate on the future of my career. When I feel lost in life, I talk to people who are smarter than me. That’s why I talk to porn stars—well, one of many reasons.
Porn stars have some of the most difficult jobs in the content creation industry. They are also people who get me on a level most don’t. We are part of a culture that is incredibly difficult to navigate and even harder to survive.
I’ve never been shy about my admiration of adult film stars. I’ve found them to be brilliant advisors, excellent friends, and more. And so, I felt like I was at a crossroads in my career.
For years, I’ve carefully danced around being a more adult-oriented content creator.
Honestly, I do want to tap into my creative side on the more X-rated side. I want to talk about X-rated stories on podcasts and videos. I want to get back into artistic nude modeling, cosplay, and discussing kinks, sex work, and seedy stuff from a more in-depth basis.
Simply put, I have a lot of sex knowledge I don’t think I can safely discuss on most platforms. And I want to talk and interview the crazy folks I know and love about topics that….well, let’s say that I’ve already been warned before.
Unfortunately, doing so on many mainstream platforms can get my ass banned. And worse, many mainstream platforms are getting more puritanical by the day. After a very heavy discussion with a multitude of different takes, I made a decision.
I’m probably going to open an account on a more adult platform.
Why?
Because I don’t trust mainstream platforms not to ban me. Because I want to get back into modeling and give people a way to buy my swag. Because I want to actually use my full freedom of speech on topics that are close to me.
Am I a porn star? Not really.
Or maybe I am. Porn is in the eye of the beholder.
Think of it as porn for your brain. It’s obscene, but it’s intellectual. It’s going to be sex, drugs, and music. It’s going to be debauchery. But, I still want to create cerebral content that makes you go “Hmmmm….” alongside hilarious content that makes you cry-laugh.
Might I do a hardcore video or two? Maybe later, if I still don’t get hired by any company and if I actually gain enough confidence to put myself out there. As of right now, I feel a bit better than I did Friday (when my WGW accent got caught in full force) but it’ll take a while before I can muster up the courage.
So yeah. When it happens, I will post my links on Medium and Substack. That’s where I’m at.
I have so many questions! What’s a WGW accent? What’re some more adult platforms that you would feel like you wouldn’t get kicked off? How do you plan on getting hired by an adult film company?
