I wouldn't bother. Porn in it's early 2000s iteration is dead. It's all about "creators now".
Equipment is cheap. Most porn hitting the internet these days is shot on a new iPhone, and using 1 or 2 light rings for lighting that cost $20 for basic models. If you want to go all out, can still get stellar 4k DSLRs for under $2000.
The best gay porn producer I ever met was actually a female. She wasn't that interested in the guys, and instead focused on the visual and technical side of things. Who knew?
Recruitment of boys? Go produce in Taiwan. It's legal to do so there. A complex boy did a video for PrivateBoyMovie before it went offline, maybe 2002? He was paid 8000 baht, or so he said. Still works in Jomtien Complex.
As for selling online? Not rocket science.
Start with 3rd party services that require no start-up cost.

Done. You are the new Peire Fitch!
Young attractive twinks are using this method to scale to $10k a month pretty quickly, using tiktok, instagram and other social platforms to widen their brand audience.
And just to be VERY CLEAR. Don't do this in Thailand - The prisons look nasty as fuck when they catch you.
