Helix Studios Testing Policy! Be smart, Be aware, Be informed
To balance the privacy and safety of all our valued models we have the following policy on testing prior to filming. We ask for full and honest disclosure from all models and potential models. We make every effort to sero-sort (place matching models with each other) no matter what type of filming we are doing. There are risks involved whether filming condom or bareback sex and each and every model must be 100% comfortable and understand the risks associated with any type of sexual contact. All models in a scene must be comfortable with each other, confident in understanding the status of the other models and willing to perform in that scene. We can not and do not guarantee anything, but we work with each model to address any particular issue they have.
We ask all models to be 100% honest in disclosing their status and testing needs prior to filming. We do not discriminate against any status but simply seek to provide full disclosure to all models so that everyone is comfortable with their filming. We believe that all parties are entitled to full disclosure in any type of filming including that with condoms. A negative bottom has as much need to know if the top is positive when filming with condoms as he would if the filming were bareback. The reverse is also true.
Testing: All models are tested prior to filming a condom free scene. All models are entitled to testing prior to any filming. Testing should not be the only factor in a models decision on what type of scene to be involved in. Testing will answer the question of a persons status as of the moment of testing.
Condoms: Condom usage provides an additonal level of protection but should not be looked at as a 100% solution.
Bareback: All parties to a scene must agree to eliminate the use of condoms.
Boyfriends/friends: If boyfriends or friends desire to model, are familiar with each other and agree to film we will not require that they be tested prior to filming.
100% safety: You should not be filming or having sex with anyone anytime ever. Grab your favorite magazine or dvd go to your room and jerk off.
