NakedSword.com Launches Premiere Series with ?Dangerous Liaisons?
Supporting Content Helps Sell High-Profile, First-Release Titles
SAN FRANCISCO, CA ? NakedSword.com will be the first VOD site to offer Michael Lucas? Dangerous Liaisons, launching a new ?Premiere Series? of exclusive and high-profile VOD releases. The award-winning VOD site?s Premiere Series will feature newly released movies from top studios, with many limited-time VOD releases scheduled to coincide with the film?s DVD debut.
?We wanted to increase the online visibility of our top studios,? said Tim Valenti, President of NakedSword.com. ?The films we?ve chosen for the Premiere Series have extensive supporting content that allow us to promote them more aggressively than we could a standard title. We want to eventize online distribution.?
The Premiere Series emerged after a one-time promotion of five scenes from Falcon Studios? two-part fall release Cross Country proved highly successful in September. Extensive behind-the-scenes footage, exclusive interviews, cast photo galleries and other supporting content helped get the attention of VOD users at the same time as the DVD hit stores. The limited-time Cross Country scenes skyrocketed to the top of NakedSword.com?s most-watched-video list garnering critical VOD eyeballs for one of Falcon Studio?s most ambitious DVD releases.
?Other VOD providers can?t match our ability to promote movies online,? said Valenti. ?With each of these films we?ve built multi-faceted mini-sites within the NakedSword site that not only promote the particular movie, but also upcoming releases from that studio. Our ability to brand a studio ? and capture the attention of the VOD audience ? is unrivalled.?
Dangerous Liaisons will premiere on November 22, 2005 in time anticipation of the high-traffic Thanksgiving holiday. Future films in the Premiere Series include Buckshot Studio?s Beyond Perfect, Raging Stallion?s Arabesque as well as Wet Palms, NakedSword?s award-winning co-production with Jet Set.
NakedSword.com has been a leader in gay adult streaming video since 1997. Its innovative membership and pay-per-view models allow users unlimited access to its 3,500 online video library, featuring full-length titles from over 100 studios including Falcon, Titan, Rascal, COLT, Hot House, Lucas Entertainment, Raging Stallion and Jet Set.
