harmony-logo-square-web_resize.jpgLONDON — Zauder Film exclusively brings Harmony Films’ award winning brand of all-sex entertainment to the Balkans in an exclusive distribution deal.

The agreement places Harmony Films’ titles in Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro, Macedonia and Kosovo. The distribution deal will initially bring “Claudia,” “The Initiation of Nikki Jayne,” “The Hacienda,”"Young Harlots: The Academy” and “Tanya
Hyde: Maison Erotique” to Zauder Film’s territories.

“Zauder Film, as the largest distribution company for adult films in the territory of the former Yugoslavia, has been searching for a partner that produces movies with high production values that are visually appealing,” Zauder Film Sales Manager Mark Bedekovic said.
“We think that our deal with Harmony Films will be extremely successful and our customers will recognize the quality of Harmony Films’ productions. Titles from Great Britain were not available before this, so this will generate interest on the part of our customers as well.”

“We’re very pleased to bring Harmony Films’ titles to the consumers in the countries Zauder Film represents,” Maskell said. “They’ve impressed us with their ability to reach retailers and we’re very pleased to do business with them.

By Steve Javors
LAS VEGAS — In a city known for its decadence where stiff drinks are served, sin is on the menu and scantily clad babes saunter poolside, Adam & Eve and Zero Tolerance delivered on all fronts. The two companies teamed up to throw lavish parties over the weekend at the Palms Resort & Casino to celebrate the upcoming release of “Roller Dollz.”
The action kicked off Friday night inside the Palms’ Grand Ballroom where more than 300 invited guests mixed and mingled with the movie’s stars. The ballroom was transformed into a live-action roller derby with a mock bout between the Baker Babes and the Sin City Roller Girls. Go-go girls dancing on skates to the deejay’s fresh grooves added to the party’s freewheeling vibe. Red-lit light gobos bearing the Adam & Eve and Zero Tolerance logos added to the evening’s spectacular branding.

Outside the ballroom, model-like cocktail servers passed out shots of absinthe in test tubes to guests as they walked into the expansive ballroom that was dressed to give it an industrial feel with metal scaffolding complemented by private cabanas. Delectable desserts made the rounds as industry executives, “Roller Dollz” stars and invited Palms high rollers took in the evening’s celebratory vibe.

Last weekend’s festivities marked the second summer in a row Adam & Eve has come to the Palms to celebrate the release of a big-budget blockbuster. Last year, the company threw a lavish affair for “Eden.” Both celebratory weekends were organized by former Adam & Eve Vice President Peter Reynolds. Reynolds now owns and operates Plaid Bag Media, a content licensing firm.

Continuing the effective cross-promotion, four stars from “Roller Dollz” — Kayden Kross, Bree Olson, Courtney Cummz and Alektra Blue — were featured in two music videos for the Mother Truckers, an Austin, Texas-based roots-rock band that licensed its songs “Let’s All Go to Bed” and “Dynamite” for use in the movie. Reynolds arranged the cross promotion after seeing the band perform at the South by Southwest music conference.

The “Roller Dollz” celebration continued Saturday night as the adult and mainstream worlds collided at the Palms pool for Jimmy’s Naughty Nightie Night party. A yearly pajama party thrown for the casino’s high rollers, Jimmy’s was the perfect opportunity for invited guests to meet the stars of the movie.

Dressed in silky chocolate-colored pajamas, invitees had the full run of the Palms’ high-class pool and cabanas. A live reggae band played perfect summertime jams as a throng of civilians crowded the Adam & Eve and Zero Tolerance cabanas to meet the assembled starlets who included Kayden Kross, Sunny Lane, Roxy Deville, Alektra Blue and Courtney Cummz.

Adult-branded elements of the weekend included specially designed room keys, poker chips, blackjack tables with both Adam & Eve and Zero Tolerance logos in addition to the “Roller Dollz” teaser played on the casino’s big TV screens.

Lane, a former ice skater, told XBIZ that she particularly enjoyed working on “Roller Dollz” because she got to play the bad girl for the first time.

“This shoot was so much fun for me because I got to do everything I love — act, skate and have sex!” an exuberant Lane said. “It was great working with the rest of the cast too because they are all very talented. [Director] James Avalon is a dream and we all just had a lot of fun making the movie — and it shows. I’m having a great time celebrating with everyone tonight.”

Reynolds was particularly pleased with how the weekend turned out. He spearheaded Adam & Eve’s promotional and co-branding efforts at both events and told XBIZ that he received a congratulatory text message from Palms owners Joe and Gavin Maloof.

“The ‘Roller Dollz weekend was a home run,” Reynolds said. “Our customers had a totally unique party weekend and left with a lasting impression of Adam & Eve, Zero Tolerance and ‘Roller Dollz.’ As an added bonus, both companies benefited from serious branding with Palms guests and specially flown in high rollers from across the country.

“From the ‘Roller Dollz’ tour bus parked in front of the hotel all weekend to the room keys, blackjack tables, casino chips, ‘Roller Dollz’ trailers playing throughout the property and signature Roller-tini cocktails, the Palms Casino Resort became all things ‘Roller Dollz.’”

Also spotted at the weekend’s soirees was Adam & Eve publicist Katy Zvolerin; executive producer Meredith Christopher; president Bob Christian and sales exec Ryan Thomas; Zero Tolerance Marketing Director Scott Stein and Dominic B; Third Degree Films chief Joey Wilson; Black Ice boss Tony Santoro; X-Play heads Jeff Mullen and Scott David; performers Heidi Mayne, Payton Leigh and Veronique Vega; Empire Distributors’ Tracy Leone and Roy Karch; Girlfriends Films head of sales Moose; It Models’ TJ DiReda; and A! Entertainment host Tony Batman.

rachelle-lareeweb.jpgThis was posted on Gene Ross www.adultfyi.com and I had to comment because I was in the thick of the beginning of this law as the Lumberyard in Des Moines Iowa opened, we made so much money there its sick to think about it now that I live in Los Angeles where the clubs are , well, tame. In an ironic twist I will be at the Big Earls club in Des Moines this weekend with feature entertainer Rachelle Laree (www.continentalagency.com). I will keep you posted if anything happens and I get arrested.

Iowa case raises question: Is stripping an art? –AP Via www.Adultfyi.com
ÂÂ

 DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa doesn’t have any all-nude strip clubs — but it does have performing arts centers where women dance naked.

However, the loophole in the state’s public indecent exposure law that allows nude dancing at “art centers” is under attack in the small community of Hamburg, a town of 1,200 just across the Missouri River from Nebraska.

The case pending before a Fremont County judge effects only one business in Hamburg, but if he agrees with the prosecutor, it could eventually threaten the legal standing of nude dancing clubs across the state.

District Judge Timothy O’Grady heard arguments in a one-day trial on July 17 and took the case under advisement.

It all began on July 21, 2007, when a 17-year-old niece of Sheriff Steven MacDonald climbed up on stage at Shotgun Geniez in Hamburg and stripped off her clothing. Owner Clarence Judy was charged with violating Iowa’s public indecent exposure law.

Judy responded that the law doesn’t apply to a “theater, concert hall, art center, museum, or similar establishments” devoted to the arts or theatrical performances.

“Dance has been considered one of the arts, as is sculpture, painting and anything else like that. What Clarence has is a club where people can come and perform,” said his lawyer, Michael Murphy.

Murphy noted that the club has a gallery selling collectible posters and other art, and it provides patrons with sketch pads.

Nonsense, said Fremont County Attorney Margaret Johnson, an underage girl danced naked at the club, and that’s illegal.

“Are you saying that minors can’t be protected? Can a group of 12-year-olds come down and go in and dance nude and it’s OK? I don’t think that’s what the Legislature had in mind when it made those additional provisions,” Johnson said.

Johnson said the intent of the law is to allow movies in a theater where there’s brief nudity or for an art gallery displaying paintings of nudes.

Murphy said Judy bans anyone under 18 from entering the five-year-old business. The problem, he said, was “a group of girls snuck in a 17-year-old.”

“While she was there, she felt like dancing so she got up and danced on the stage and then she took her clothes off. Trouble with that is she’s the sheriff’s niece,” he said.

Johnson denied that the teen’s relation to the sheriff was connected to the charges filed against Judy.

Her parents were absolutely appalled with the situation,” Johnson said.

The sheriff declined to comment. There was no comment from his niece, whose name wasn’t given.

As part of his defense during trial, Murphy cited a 1998 ruling that found nude dancing is a form of art. In that case, the owner of the Southern Comfort Free Threatre for the Performing Arts in Davenport was charged under the public indecent exposure law for allowing nude dancing. A judge found owner not guilty.

The current case deals only with Judy and Shotgun Geniez, but there could be an appeal if either side loses.

Johnson said that would take it to the Iowa Court of Appeals and perhaps the Iowa Supreme Court. That would make it a statewide case that could affect dozens of other clubs in the state.

sadie-west-1-web.jpgLooks like they have another hot hit girl on their hands, smoking hot with that sex appeal look. Started as a dancer in San Diego.

CHATSWORTH, Calif. — At 20 years old, newcomer Sadie West is living her dream and on the fast track to adult industry stardom.

West, the latest addition to New Sensations/Digital Sin’s exclusive performer roster, admits to always being interested in X-rated entertainment and considers working in it a fantasy. The brunette dipped her toes in the business by dancing in San Diego. West then when north — to the San Fernando Valley — to give video a shot.

“I love this business,” she said. “I absolutely love it and it’s been nothing but positive. I love the excitement I have when I meet a stranger and know that we’ll be naked and having sex.”

She joins the very select ranks of New Sensations/Digital Sin contract girls, which includes fan favorite Ashlynn Brooke, New Sensations and Digital Sin President Scott Taylor said.

“A contract girl for our company is rare, but having two contract girls at the same time is extraordinary,” he added. “There has to be something about a girl that makes me want to bring her on board. In the case of Sadie, she brings a sincere sensuality to each of her scenes and she has a real, girl-next-door feeling to her. The fans will see this for themselves in her debut title, ‘Fresh Outta High School 12.’”

“It’s not like I was shooting for a contract, but it happened,” West said. “It just all fell together and I’m extremely excited about it.”

As New Sensations/Digital Sin’s latest contract girl, West plans to take advantage of her newfound fame and looks forward to appearing in the company’s big budget features.

“I also want to take up riding Harleys,” she shared. “My family rides so it’s a family thing with us. I’d also like to open a tattoo parlor, a biker bar and go traveling. I like to experience new cultures. You learn something new from everyone and new situations.”

yappo.jpgLas Vegas, NV - Yappo.com has re-branded and re-designed their Gay VOD product, changing the appearance of the site and dropping the “Gay” title from the moniker.

“Gay Yappo and Straight Yappo are one entity. They share one database and as such, we thought that specifying the difference in the name was an irrelevant and antiquated approach.” according to Liam Colins, Product Manager for Yappo.com.ÂÂ

The name change comes with a new look for the site. “We went with a very masculine feel. The goal was to offer some differentiation and contrast, while staying within the Yappo brand appearance.”

“This is the first of many new advances, both technological and functional, that we are planning in the next couple of months.” Liam continued. “We want Yappo to be the new face of Video on Demand, and are working closely with studios, webmasters and our various partners to establish a new standard.”

Yappo.com is among the fastest growing VOD programs today and currently offers more than 48,000 titles from 1,000 studios.

pirates2fc.jpg“Pirates II” is Loaded with Bonus Features

July 29, 2008 — VAN NUYS, Calif. — Digital Playground announces the Tuesday, July 29 shipping of the “Pirates II: Stagnetti’s Revenge” poster and reveals the anticipated number of discs and its contents. The stunning, 27×40 inch poster presents the “Pirates II: Stagnetti’s Revenge” cover art, which caused a global sensation last week. “Pirates II: Stagnetti’s Revenge” will be released in a 4 disc DVD set and a 2 disc dual-layer Blu-ray(TM) set, rich with highly produced special features and of course, the high budget, sexy feature film. With Jesse Jane® at the helm and a cast including contract stars Katsuni, Shay Jordan(TM), Stoya(TM), Gabriella Fox(TM), and Riley Steele(TM), “Pirates II: Stagnetti’s Revenge” and Digital Playground set out on a course to make history.

“Pirates II: Stagnetti’s Revenge” contains over 8 hours of the most stunning adult content ever released. In addition to the highly erotic film, “Pirates II: Stagnetti’s Revenge” includes star commentary, extended sex scenes, a bonus sex scene, a Behind-the-Scenes “Making of ‘Pirates II’”, Behind-the-Scenes Slide Show, Special Featurettes, Riley Steele’s first day on the set, Interviews, Confessionals, Bloopers, Making of the FX, Casting Calls, Deleted Scenes, the AVN 2006 Awards recap of Pirates, the 2005 “Pirates” premiere party, and plenty of trailers from hit Digital Playground films. Both the DVD and Blu-ray formats are presented in a 16×9 widescreen format with Digital 5.1 Surround Sound, no regional coding, and a chapter index. Of course, the high quality formatting and wide array of special features are standard for industry trendsetter, Digital Playground.

Joone, the internationally acclaimed writer and director of “Pirates II: Stagnetti’s Revenge”, wanted to include fans as much as possible in the production. Joone says, “The discs are packed with special features that perfectly complement our film. On the set, everyone knew that we were part of something special–something historical. The cast and crew poured their souls into this film, and now fans will have a chance to see it all.”

On the set, High Definition cameras were always present to capture the cast’s excitement, anxiety, and pride. Always willing to give the camera some love, Jesse Jane comments, “After a long day of acting, fighting, or sex–and sometimes all three–the recorded confessionals turned out to be a great way to decompress. The cameras allowed us time to sit back and think about what went down. Sometimes I was like, ‘Holy crap! I didn’t know I could bend like that!’”

Riley Steele, Digital Playground’s newest contract star, had two sets of HD cameras on her at all times. “My first scene ever was in ‘Pirates II’,” exclaims Riley. “I love the special featurette on my first day! It’s the best possible way to remember everything that went down that day from start to finish. Of course, I don’t need any help remembering that steamy threesome I was in. I think about that every night before going to bed.”

‘Pirates II’ stars Digital Playground’s beautiful contract girls Jesse Jane®, Shay Jordan?, Katsuni, Stoya?, Riley Steele (TM) and Gabriella Fox?. The film costars the international talents of BellaDonna, Sasha Grey, Jenna Haze, Brianna Love, Abbey Brooks, Shawna Lenee, Rhylee Richards, Brea Lynn, Shyla Stylez, and Veronica Rayne.
