Welcome to AP Spotlight. Every month, we’ll pick an AP Creator of the Month and interview them, and they send us a little video intro with some quick tips for other AP Creators.
For September, our AP Creator of the Month is CelesteLuna. Let’s meet her…
How’d you get started making adult content?
I got started making adult content because I was ready for more freedom. I was working a serving job that I hated and woke up one day and decided I wanted more out of my hard work and time. I had a friend who made content and she kind of showed me how it was done. I fell in love immediately.?
How long have you been making content?
I have been making content since May 2018. I made some videos with a friend in late April, but didn’t take the full plunge and quit my vanilla job until the start of May!
What inspires your content?
What inspires my content the most is learning. I love learning about fetishes (especially odd fetishes), new editing techniques, cameras and lighting equipment. Every day I learn something new when making content and it drives me to keep doing it.
What’s your favorite content you’ve ever made?
My favorite videos that I’ve made are my Marilyn videos. They aren’t very fetish related like most of my other videos (yet!), but I am very proud of how they turned out. Happy Birthday Mr. Prez is the best video I think I’ve ever made!
How do you promote your brand, and what’s the most successful method(s) for you?
The way I promote my content is through Twitter, Snapchat and Instagram. Twitter is the easiest to promote myself, but I love using Instagram and Snapchat for PG and more SFW previews of myself. I love doing the AP Snapchat Takeovers to get to know a lot of members and show everyone what I have to offer.
What’s your trick to balancing your daily life?
I wish I had a trick to balancing my daily life! LOL It’s definitely something I’m constantly working on. Making sure I have hobbies outside of sex work has really helped. I also force myself to take a some time off every day, even if it’s just a few hours like dinner time or during a hot bath.
If you could give a new creator advice, what would it be?
My advice to any new creator is to stay true to yourself. Don’t be afraid to push yourself, but always remember your boundaries are important. Also, invest in yourself!! Put some money back into your equipment, costumes, organization, etc. In the long run it will help!
If you make customs – what’s the weirdest request and did you do it?
I love making custom videos! That’s how I learned that I liked a lot of fetishes I would have never tried before! I also really like knowing I’m getting someone off, so making a custom video just for them really gets me into it! I wouldn’t say this is a weird request, but different: I have a gentleman who loves to watch me faint! I’ve gotten really into these customs, making every single fall look authentic and not forced. I actually really look forward to when he orders a new one!
How do you film? Any special lighting equipment/camera? Feel free to share some of your tips.
Currently, I still use a Logitech c920, 2 umbrella lights and a ring light. It’s a pretty basic set up. My camera has really done me well over the last year (especially after I learned how to play with the settings), but it’s time for an upgrade. 3 point lighting is something every content creator needs to learn! My lights aren’t perfect, but using the 3 point method I can create great looking content. My tips for filming is to keep your space interesting without being overwhelming. Change it up every now and then when you get bored but KEEP IT CLEAN!
What do you like about using AP as a platform?
AP as a platform is super fun and innovative. They have the best payout out of any other site I’ve used, which shows me they value my hard work! Uploading videos is so easy on AP too! I love doing the monthly Snapchat Takeovers too! It’s just another way AP stands out to me as really caring about the creators.
Has your brand evolved since you started? If so, how?
My brand has changed and evolved a lot since I started. I went from being unsure and all over the place, to really finding my niche with fetish content. I love creating interesting and different videos that not everyone makes! I won’t shy away from some taboo or odd kinks. Now I have fun making my content instead of overthinking things.
?What are you watching on Netflix right now?
I’ve been on a classic movie kick lately! Cabaret, Cat On A Hot Tin Roof, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, A Clockwork Orange. But I also love to throw on Parks and Rec when I’m cooking and I loooove stand up comedy!
What’s a meme to describe yourself?
The meme that best describes me is the TikTok of the woman taking a sip of kombucha and she’s very unsure of if she likes it or not! But she ends on yes Hahaha
You have a variety of videos including solos, fetish, outdoor nudity, naked yoga, ASMR, etc. Do you have a favorite to film? Do you like to explore all aspects of clip making?
My favorite kinds of content to make are pee and burping/eating videos! I didn’t even know I liked pee play until I got a custom to just watch me pee in my bathtub at the beginning of my career! It opened Pandora’s box! I also looooove to eat and I burp all the time! Those videos are always so fun for me to make. I really do love all aspects of making content. I am venturing into making content with other models so we can create real magic!
You?re a burlesque performer! Do you like to incorporate this into your videos?
Honestly, I don’t think I’ve incorporated much of Burlesque into my content but I have definitely incorporated my content into my Burlesque! I used to be a classic performer, but since starting sex work and content making full time, my acts have become more fetish oriented. I have a Ball Busting act and a new Hucow act that makes the people here in Texas really look twice! I’ve also gotten a lot more confident on stage since making content! I’ve always had an element of tease to me which you can see in my burlesque and content.
How did you come up with your stage name?
I am a spacey babe. I love the Moon (I even have a huge Moon tattoo on my forearm). I wanted my name to reflect myself and the energy that is very important to me. A Celestial Moon.
