How to become a webcam model?

I am 23 years old, from Russia, so I apologize for the translation errors. I study for a journalist. In my free time I play video games, go to concerts. In the summer, if possible, I’ll hitchhike around the country.

Web modeling is a job where you communicate with viewers (using a webcam), fulfilling some of their requests. Webcams are often compared to pornography because in both cases a naked girl sits in the frame. I learned about the existence of this profession at the age of 18 from my boyfriend, who was much older than me. He said that there are girls who simply stream themselves and get good money for it. Later on Facebook, I saw a post saying that the webcam studio is gaining models: they promised remote work with good earnings and without a dress code. One of the main requirements was knowledge of foreign languages. I learned that in every million-plus city there are several webcam studios that do full-fledged business on streams (most of them are concentrated in St. Petersburg). Studios are ordinary three- or four-room apartments, in each of which a model sits. Typically, studios have a large base of girls who change, for example, every six hours. The studio receives a percentage of donations.
