Hi Shap
What is your take on the "Glamcore" market? X-Art.com, Sexart.com, Babes.com, Nubilesfilms.com etc. I really like where X-Art.com has gone and having come from the J. Stephen Hicks studio I have always strived to push the envelope in quality and design. I know it?s not for everyone but I feel it could be a gold mine if done right and marketed as such. Gonzo is great for the general masses but it is supersaturated and always will be.
There are a lot of copycat sites that try to imitate x-art (whom I view as the leader in this category) but they really fall flat when it comes to the quality. I feel that we did some really great stuff with Babes.com but it was basically marketed to all the Brazzers users and never really touted as a high end product. Kind of like trying to sell Aston Martins to a bunch of Honda Civic drivers.
I see it as a niche like any other and I think as a newer segment it needs to mature. Hotter scenes that are more hardcore but with great lighting and advanced camera moves and depth of field. Personally, I see massive potential here. It is a great time to be a filmmaker with all the new tech available or coming such as higher shutter speeds and 4k cinema cameras.
This is all my take on it, but I am curious how you see it and if you believe it has a viable future in adult.
