STI Testing
There are many options available. Feel free to choose any option that works within your budget and healthcare access.
We typically recommend the 10-panel test, purchased through STDCheck.com with blood samples taken at a variety of local labs. It costs about $140 and, depending on location, takes 2-4 days to process.
You can also get tested with your primary care physician. Although there are many doctors who drag their feet about STI testing, it is preventive medicine, your legal right, and it is in the best interest of public health. Don’t hesitate to advocate for yourself.
Public health departments also offer some STI testing. Appointments are often booked out far in advance, but if you have the time to wait, it’s a good low-cost alternative if you’re uninsured.
If you prefer anonymous testing and fast results, you can get tested at Talent Testing Services (TTS) for approximately $350.
No, we do not accept at-home testing because it cannot be verified.
Since there is no way of verifying someone’s sexual activity, the only way we can ensure the safety of all participants is to require proof of STI testing.
No, condoms are not required. All participants have sent their STI test results in advance. If you want to use condoms, your body, your choice. If you want to receive penetration with condoms only, we fully support your boundary and will ask anyone we see violating this boundary to leave. However, because of the magnitude of what’s going on during scenes, we cannot guarantee the ability to monitor and enforce this for you.
You can send your STI results to info@vanessacliff.com as a picture, screenshot, google drive link, or video of you opening your results on your computer.
Please make sure your STI results include your name and the date of the test.
Release Forms, IDs and Your Identity
The event will be filmed and posted on this website, as well as other clip sites, tube sites and subscription sites. Basically, consider that attending means your role in adult content will be all over the internet.
The release forms say you are over the age of 18, understand how the content will be used, and are participating with fully informed, enthusiastic consent.
ID pics are required to prove you’re of legal age and are the one signing the form.
You can read the release form in full here.
Yes, wearing masks is fine. For example, you can buy black ski masks online for $7.
No. We don’t blur faces, we don’t ask the videographers to avoid specific people, and we don’t cut people out after the fact. If you show up, you will be on camera and on the internet.
One of the goals of Cliff Media is to show the world what enthusiastic consent, queer-led porn and inclusive sex-positive community could look like. So we post content all over the internet - including on Cliff Media's website and tube sites like PornHub.
Please don’t come if you aren’t 100% comfortable with that.
Event Attendance
In general, we look for people who submit STI results in advance, show up on time with ID in hand, and are positive, humble and kind.
We welcome all participants regardless of age, race, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, body size or appearance!
Some shoots are exclusive to women and queer-identifying people, for the purposes of building queer leadership in a supportive space. Most shoots are open to all, regardless of identity. All shoots are led and directed by some fuckin fabulous queer and trans people.
No, thank you. People of any body type, age, gender, and appearance are welcome. The only pictures we need to see are pictures of your STI results.
Attendees can choose to participate to whatever extent makes them comfortable. However:
There is no way to know with certainty in advance who is coming and we do not screen applicants based on physical appearance. We prioritize working with people who are reliable, positive and kind, and we hope you do, too!
Because some people submit STI results on the week of the shoot, and not everyone who says they are going to come shows up, there is no way to know with certainty in advance who or how many people will attend.
We give out the shoot location to people who have submitted their test results. If you have submitted STI results, you will receive logistics details no later than one week before the shoot.
What to Expect at the Event
