If you’re making short-form content for clipsites or amateur platforms, 15 to 30 minutes may be ideal. For a full-length feature, you might be working with multiple scenes, different performers, and a narrative arc that requires more planning.

Even with a small cast, you’ll want to keep things visually and erotically fresh across the runtime.
