The AVN Expo kicked off its 2026 event to enthusiastic crowds, featuring a panel discussion on content creation for performers.

Panel Discussion: 'Creators 101'

The panel, titled "Creators 101," was moderated by veteran director Glenn King and featured advice from successful performers who have made and marketed their own content. The panelists included Madeline Marlowe, Jada Kai, Mz. Kim, and Violet Doll.

According to moderator Glenn King, the purpose of the panel was to provide guidance on the content creation process, from pre-production to marketing and monetizing content. "We are going to walk through the content creation process, starting at pre-production and going all the way through to marketing and monetizing content," King said.

The panel aimed to help performers make money by creating their own content, rather than relying on traditional models of being at the mercy of producers. As King noted, "Nearly every performer in the industry today either makes content or is considering making content."
