"Hire people without coming off as weird"
Love you, too
I would ask yourself why you're doing the shoot. Shooting fetish porn probably feels weird in your mind, but in reality, it's just a business transaction. You provide the ideas and the cast executes on them. I would view it as filling a hole in the market instead of filling a hole in your spank bank.
Specifically, I would recommend:
-Act in a respectful and professional manner. You're not asking someone to fuck you. You're not asking someone to be in a relationship with you. Instead, you're paying someone to film a fetish porn video for you to sell, which is a much lower bar.
-Come with a plan in hand. Having a plan is key for projecting an image of confidence and will help set you up for success.
-Rent a small studio to do your shoot in. Having a secondary facility is more professional and much less weird than filming at your residence. This may not be possible depending on your financial situation.
-Be ready to handle safety, cleanup, accidents, and temperature to ensure a safe and comfortable work environment.
-Setting expectations for the shoot ahead of time. Being ready to explain how the shoot will go and what is expected of your cast will help them to best realize your vision and will give them confidence that you know what you're doing.
-Encourage cast members to bring a friend. Paying a woman to visit you alone, in a secluded place, is inherently unsettling. You should encourage her to bring someone along. This will both help to put her at ease and to reinforce the idea of a professional work environment.
-Remember that most people who aren't into the fetish won't view it as an inherently sexual activity. You will absolutely want to inform them of your intentions to sell the video as fetish porn, but you should also frame it as an enjoyable and different experience.
-Cover your ass by forming a written contract that ensures that the rights to the proceeds from the video and the rights to sell it are all yours. I have 0 experience here, but I'm sure some of the producers on this site could help you figure out where to start.
Now, I will warn you that I am not a producer. This advice is based off of my own experience working in a large company, and based on advice that I have seen producers give over the years. I think the key is to be nice and be respectful of the people you're working with, their time, and their well-being.

Also,don't bring Regis as your wingman.
Oh Janet! You look so funny!!!
One thing i've found that helps is emphasizing that it'll actually be a lot of fun - very fun shoot; many models have so much fun, they can't believe we're actually paying them to do it! - ever want to be in a food fight? Here's your chance to experience what it would be like! - Admit it, you've always wondered what it would be like to get hit with a pie...here's your chance to find out!
Then at the shoot, keep things as lighthearted as possible. Constantly put yourself in the actor/model's shoes in terms of what they're experiencing and keep them comfortable.

I'm always amazed by how chilled and relaxed the girls of Mostwam / Moomins are about the whole thing, they literally all seem to carry on like it's most most normal thing in the world, and I believe they're mostly just regular girls next door, not models, (certainly not fetish models).
What's the secret Leon?

To be honest, any "outside" models I've worked/sessioned with have been really enthusiastic about the whole idea. For a lot of people, the idea of getting pied or gunged is pretty much "silly fun" from when they used to watch Saturday morning TV, and they'd have been asked to do a lot weirder!
Go with the whole idea of "fake it til you make it" - act confident and like you have experience doing messy shoots/sessions and they'll be absolutely fine with you.

This is very good advice.
You really don't need to feel weird about it. If you are hiring a model who is comfortable with fetish content then they aren't going to care that it's "weird". If you are looking to hire a total amateur to not have to pay the rates of an experienced model then it likely will be a bit awkward. As long as you are communicating clearly about what you are shooting (trying to hide the fact that it's a fetish makes it creepy) and act like you would in any professional setting then it should go fine.
Hi
People beg me to come to my shoots. I always have more than enough help. Just say on this forum you are going to shoot and you will get volunteers

Be upfront. Be as detailed as possible without being over-specific. (Do those two cancel each other out?)
What I mean by that is you'll want to give them a good idea of what they are getting in to, without bogging them down with details. Ask yourself what you might want to know before going in blind, and give them that information. Make sure there are no surprises.
