Check out our "mainstream" movie!
 
Hey GFYers, I'm one of the producers of this film Scrapper:

Check out the Trailer:


"What's this have to do with porn?" you might be asking. Answer: not a ton, but it does feature Joanna Angel (in a non sex-worker role!), and as you can see has bondage-themed elements.

It released yesterday on VOD platforms. Please consider helping a brother out and ordering the movie on iTunes!:
Scrapper On iTunes!

I know I will be crucified by many of you for 'peddling' our wares here, but hey, in this day and age, we gotta use any means possible of getting the word out.
And I'm sure many of you will agree it's getting exponentially harder to get people to actually pay for content, whether it be adult or mainstream.

If you simply cannot afford it, don't want to order it, or just don't like me and refuse to order it, I understand!
Still, again, check out the trailer and if you enjoy please share with a friend.

Cool, but why do you have to announce that it's a "feature film drama"?

I'll rent it.

mineistaken 04-02-2014 04:28 PM

Looks nice, what was the budget?

Good luck with the movie.

But next time, save a little of the budget for marketing. Whoever photographed and assembled this promo was an amateur... really, a few minutes of expert Photoshop could've made this look 200% better.

Ever since Queer As Folk, I'll watch pretty much anything Aiden Gillen is in. Though, his American accent has never been his strongest skill.


'There is no such thing as a black pervert'....she isn't doing it right then. ;)

Thanks Bronco!
And not sure about why we billed it as a "feature film drama" to be honest.
And it's actually more of a "Dramedy" :)

Mediamix 04-03-2014 01:15 AM

I just posted the trailer with the iTunes link on my social media accounts and my girl is going to write some nice reviews about the movie for her Dutch websites. I know it's not much, but I will do everything I can to spread the word...

Good luck! :thumbsup

OneHungLo 04-03-2014 01:26 AM

Trailer looks pretty good. Will check it out this week.

seeandsee 04-03-2014 06:28 AM

Looks interesting, good luck with it

lezinterracial 04-03-2014 08:52 AM

Good idea for a movie. I like where it shows the guy testing the metal with a magnet.

MrTrollkien 04-03-2014 08:54 AM

Joanna Angel as a Milf...so sad.

aztecboi2003 04-03-2014 09:32 AM

Trailer looks good

ezgirl 04-03-2014 10:55 AM

Is producer a porn producer??
 
Wondering why this is here, trailer looks good to me. Is this producer a porn producer too? That would be most interesting.

There are pornstars in it.

candyflip 04-03-2014 11:56 AM

Looks good. As someone already asked, what was your budget? How'd you go about securing financing? Were you able to pre-sell to VOD / Netflix or anything like that?

blackmonsters 04-03-2014 06:29 PM

Well, I'll have to say this is interesting indeed.

And a black guy as a good/honest/likable character amongst all the bad white characters :thumbsup
Must be coincidence :)

JA$ON 04-03-2014 06:41 PM

"I know I will be crucified by many of you for 'peddling' our wares here"

And if you are, FUCK IT, it will be by those who have never built anything substantial, made any real $ etc etc.

Congrats on ACCOMPLISHING something, I'll order it.

ErectMedia 04-03-2014 09:08 PM

Fuck it I'll watch it this weekend and may come back and tell ya if I thought it was good or sucked ass. :thumbsup

EddyTheDog 04-03-2014 09:15 PM

If the black guy sounds like Morgan Freeman you are onto a winner...

Budget was quite low - "micro" budget film: a bit more than 50K. For financing, some of the other producers and I each put in some of our own $.
It wasn't really a "pre-sale" to VOD, more of a % we'll get (kind of like aebn, hotmovies, etc.)

Yup, been doing porn and (trying to do) mainstream for quite some time :-)

Congrats! The Trailer looks great...

MediaGuy 04-05-2014 09:22 AM

Excellent! I want a press release...

:D

ErectMedia 04-05-2014 12:32 PM

Downloaded from itunes, I'll watch it tonight probably :thumbsup

mineistaken 04-05-2014 02:39 PM

Perfect result with 50K budget.. Although did you include producers' salaries in this amount? Sounds like not really, or maybe just token salaries.

MrTrollkien 04-05-2014 02:53 PM

Great work ... indie gold! Congrats.

You couldn't come up with a title that hadn't been use before?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CU5E4E74f98
"Scrapper" won Best Documentary in Seattle (STIFF), a Spirit Award in Brooklyn (BIFF) and a Royal Reel Award in Canada (CIFF).
Driven by adrenaline and hunger, grit and greed, crystal meth and scripture, a defiant group of desert survivalists risk their lives reclaiming the lucrative scrap metal from exploded and unexploded ordnance in the kill zones of a US military bombing range in Southern California's low desert, 40 miles from the Mexican border.

More like 1000%:2 cents:

JayAllan 04-06-2014 12:20 PM

Trailer looks promising. I will watch it this week. Congrats on getting a film finished! That is a success in itself. I would love to hear how well you do with it.

PornDiscounts-V 04-06-2014 12:54 PM

Films reuse titles all of the time. Check IMDB and notice many films with the year behind the title letting you know there are more than one with that title.

I would think some one that could produce a whole movie could come up with a original name? Why confuse the marketplace?
A more creative name could result in more sales:2 cents:

No no, producers had no salaries. In fact, producers are the ones who financed the movie, so I guess that is the opposite of a salary :winkwink:
