BeautifulMag The Porn Star Interviews | Scott Hunter: Good Guy gone Bad

SCOTT HUNTER CALLS HIMSELF AN ALL ROUND NICE GUY (OR BAD). SCOTT HUNTER ALSO SAYS THAT HE NEVER THOUGHT OF HIMSELF TO BE MODEL MATERIAL. LET ALONE AN EROTIC VISION THAT SINCE SOME MONTHS NOW HAS KEPT MANY GAY MEN AWAKE AT NIGHT. SCOTT HUNTER IS THE PERSONIFICATION OF THE UGLY DUCKLING FAIRY TALE. A GOOD GUY GONE BAD. ALTHOUGH IN THIS CASE BAD IS GOOD. VERY GOOD INDEED.

Scott, you have been active in the gay adult industry for several months now. How have you experienced it so far?
Scott: I love that, ‘Active’, pretty ironic really seeing as I’m such a passive actor, anyone who knows my films will know that I’m a complete bottom guy, can’t get enough of it! To be honest there have been good points and bad points but then there are in many jobs and careers.
 
There are aspects of the industry I don’t like and I’ve found hard to deal with but to be honest, I think I’m getting there now and I have had to grow a thick skin and learn to go against my natural instincts and behaviour to adapt to working with different companies, different styles of production and the array of different personalities I’ve encountered.

So, compared to what your career plans were before, no regrets?
Scott: Well, I have to say I never woke up and decided ‘I want to be a porn star today’. It wasn’t like that at all. My career plans have always changed, I’ve never truly known what I want to do or be in life. I started off wanting to be a chef, now although I enjoy cooking, y passion lies in making deserts (I have a sweet tooth on my naughty days). Then, I decided that I would go into IT and I have been fully trained and qualified and worked in IT since leaving school. Then plan then, was that after I completed my personal trainer’s certification that I would branch out, become a personal trainer, sports therapist and swimming coach. Unfortunately, we moved, I needed to stay in IT to pay for the house, that was the end of that aspiration. Then, most recently, my job was taken away from me and I landed in modelling and the adult industries.

The plan is and remains that I will invest any profits I have into my own web and PC support business. To date though, I’ve not earned enough to allow me to do that after paying my bills, but this year, you never know!
 
So, I can’t say I have any regrets, I’ve always enjoyed what I’ve done, with the exception for working for other people, now, I suppose you could say, although I spend a lot of time working underneath someone, it’s far more enjoyable and I don’t mind being told what to do!
 
Do you besides filming also give life performances?
Scott: Funnily enough, no, I have been asked to do a live sex show which I turned down recently purely because I am still new to this and I need to build some courage and work up to events like that. I have however performed at PLAY>TIME in London as well as been ‘host’ for a couple of events elsewhere in the UK and hopefully, I will be doing some more in the near future.

Since your entertainment career kicked off you have also become a well sought after photo model. How is that working for you?
Scott: Actually, I was really surprised how that happened. I really, really enjoy modelling. I would love to do a lot more. I know that it’s a very competitive arena and I personally think there are a lot of guys who are a lot fitter, sexier and more attractive than me out there so the completion for work is immense.
 
I’ve been fortunate though, to work for a couple of amazing photographers and feature in BeautifulMag  before but would actually love to do a lot more modelling if I could get the work. I enjoy working with the photographers, they have all been amazing so far, I’ve had a great time doing the work and I’ve worked with some great models too.
 
Modelling for photos is totally different to that of film modelling and its funny how I look at pictures of myself and think ‘wow! That’s actually me!’. It would be a dream come true to be on a cover of a magazine, something that I can show to people, touch and keep for prosperity or to see myself in a mainstream magazine…who knows, we will see how things go but for now, I’m just made up that I’ve done what I’ve done so far. I never thought I would be modelling at all so it’s a fantastic confidence boost for me.
What aspect of your work do you like best and why?
Scott: The best aspect for me personally has to be the boost to my self-confidence. I have always, until I started this work, genuinely believed that I was unattractive and Mr. Average, the guy you see at a nightclub who blends into the background, that comes alone and leaves alone. I know that may sound sad, but genuinely, it was how I felt. Quite naturally and understably I think too. Only once in my life up until I started this work, did I have anyone come up to me whilst I was out in a bar or club.
 
When one of my friends told me I should send off my photos to see if I could get any modelling work when I lost my job, I thought ‘I’ve got nothing to lose but no one will want me’, can you imagine my surprise when everyone I approached said ‘yes’?! I was amazed.

Since then, I’ve kept copies of the photos I’ve done and I can’t believe it’s me, I can’t believe anyone would want to watch me in a film or look at my photos but now, thanks to Twitter, Facebook and feedback form my web site, I’ve actually learnt that perhaps I wasn’t Mr. Average after all. Don’t get me wrong, I hate guys who have over-inflated egos and I will never be like that, but I have come to accept that actually, some guys DO want to see me and watch me and that has to be the biggest thing I have gained from this whole experience.
 
How did you come to meet Mircius Aecrim?
Scott: I think Mircea approached me either through Facebook, Model Mayhem or my own website. I can’t remember exactly how that came about but the result of meeting him has been that I have a new, very genuine new friend. He approached me asking if he could take photos of me and another model, Issac Jones in two separate photoshoots while he was on a visit to the UK, to Manchester. I said yes, as it was close and he seemed genuinely interested and supportive of my efforts to improve my portfolio.

Can you describe the work that you and Mircuis did together?
Scott: Mircuis was going to use the photos for his portfolio and asked if he could also use them for a project in his education. Of course, I said yes and as it happens, he passed with flying colours due to the quality of his work. He wanted to take a series of ‘natural’ photos, simply myself, walking around, washing, changing, relaxing on the sofa and make a series of photos which weren’t posed or staged, something more natural and fly-on-the-wall like. I have been really impressed with both the quality of the outcome and the way they photos capture me just being myself.
 
Since meeting him, Mircuis and I have become good friends and stay in touch, despite the fact that he is in another country which doesn’t share our beliefs and understanding of art, the male form or male erotic art either, we have kept in touch and I sincerely hope to work with him again and to stay in touch.
What is next for Scott Hunter?
Scott: Well, that is pretty much up to the people who want to see me. I have very little say on what comes next but if you like what you see, let the companies know about me, suggest me for appearances at events etc or put my name forward for anything you think I would be suitable for.
 
I love trying new things, meeting new people and having the opportunity to go to see new places, go places I never thought I would be able to visit.
 
For the time being, I am going with the flow, seeing what happens and taking things a step at a time. The plan remains that I will use any profit to invest into my own business but I would love very much to do more modelling and to work with more great people in all aspects of the industry.
 
Watch this space!!! -BM-

Hi Guys,

Thanks for writing such a great interview for me, always a pleasure to work with you!

Scott

[Raz]

What a nice guy! ^_^

Also, sexy anyway but being unassuming about it makes him sexier....confidence is a big turnon, guys who think they are hot shit = not so much...I like when guys can be honest about the fact that they are attractive but they don't act like it puts them on another level :p

On another note, awesome photography! Beautiful is the right word!

[ScottHunterXXX]

Thanks Raz....

I know exactly what you mean. I have seen guys and thought 'wow, he's hot' then he show that he loves himself and it's an instant turn off. The idea of ever becoming like that scared the hell of me and thankfully, I have people around me to keep me in check so it will never happen.

Thanks for reading the article and posting a comment too, it means a lot to me.

Mircius is a fantastic guy and his work is amazing and if it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be here, in Beautiful Mag this month!

Scott

I am a huge fan of BeautifulMag, have always found the interviews a welcome and interesting change and the pornstar interviews probably even a little bit more interesting. To learn about these men. What drives them. What moves them. Today's article with Scott Hunter must be one if the best so far. The integrity of Scott. His modesty. And those stunning photographs. It's a complete portrait that weaves image and words seamless together. A big bravo for BeautifulMag

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder....and as a beholder, in my eyes he has the look that sets my pulse racing and is more sensual than any of the other 'handsome' models I've seen in Beautiful Mag. Scott's humility about his looks is extremely appealing and I would like to see much more of him. His appeal is like a breath of fresh air, a very welcome change from the often intimidating perfection of the stereotype male model. Good for you Scott, you've certainly got what it takes!!
