Mr San Diego Eagle 2010

11 February 2010 22:22

FlagMr San Diego Eagle 201030,000 ft – This past weekend I was down in San Diego, California to serve as the head judge for the Mr San Diego Eagle contest. As you can gather from the title, this is neither a big regional event nor a huge audience draw. Rather, it is a local bar title that draws a dedicated mix of individuals from the local community. Nevertheless, I came away from the experience with some very strong impressions regarding what community means and just how powerful an impact effective leadership can have on a community. David, the new Mr San Diego Eagle, and his first runner-up, Stephen (pictured above on my right and left, respectively) are both excellent representatives of a vibrant community, and here’s why I think so… Read the rest of this entry »

Anatomy of a Scene: Impact Play

5 February 2010 10:58

InstigatorsAnatomy of a Scene: Impact PlaySan Diego, CA – Of all the scenes we do, it is our impact play that seems to freak people out the most. Impact play is a common yet misunderstood part of the Leather-S/M scene. Whether delivered with bare hands (our personal favorite) or through a variety of implements designed or perverted to do wicked and nasty things – impact play can create strong physical, emotional and mental connections.

Released: ROUGH. Abuse of Power

31 January 2010 23:41

DirectorReleased: ROUGH. Abuse of PowerSan Francisco, CA – This past Tuesday Titan Media released the fourth video in the Rough line of fetish/Sm features I’m co-directing with Paul Wilde. Abuse of Power is a solid feature with three sex-filled vignettes that explore three different examples of how some of us play with the exchange of power. Tristan Jaxx and I ambush and overpower Ridge Kane in the first. Erik Glock has his power taken from him at gun-point as he’s raped by Tyler Saint in the second. And Ruff Zindao surrenders to the business end of my six-foot bullwhip in a truly incredible free-standing display of self discipline and personal power in the final single-tail scene. From our darkest fantasies of abduction and rape, through brute force, gun play and pain, to the point of ecstasy and release, Abuse of Power delivers a unique glimpse into the way men play together on the edge.

Now, for a more personal take on Abuse of Power, a look at the trailer courtesy of TitanMen.com, an excerpt from the Scene Breakdown for ROUGH. Abuse of Power and more… Read the rest of this entry »

Sex Advice with an Edge (Part 1)

18 November 2009 12:54

FocusSex Advice with an Edge (Part 1)Seattle, WA – Yesterday I sat down with Dr Dick for a podcast interview as part of his Sex Advice with an Edge series. You’ll recall my boy Chris Yosef did an interview with the Doc a few months ago and I was called out to add my take on this thing of ours. In this first part of our interview we discuss: the need for a body double, or at least a cock double; the Pacific Northwest as a hotbed of perversion; my on-screen persona being the same as my off-screen persona; how I got my start in the ‘art film’ industry; workshops Derek da Silva and I present together; my mentors; my collaboration with Titan Media and the new Rough line; the challenges, opportunities and future of porn; the bareback phenomenon; and my essay A More Nuanced Position. As the summary of the podcast from Dr Dick states… Read the rest of this entry »

Associate Applicants’ Weekend 2009

17 November 2009 20:08

ReflectiveAssociate Applicants' Weekend 2009Seattle, WA – Landing in Seattle was like a return to reality. Often when I fly out to attend Chicago Hellfire Club (CHC) events, especially those with my boy Derek Da Silva, I feel as though I’ve escaped… escaped from the harsh realities of the day-to-day; escaped from the ever present judgment of those who don’t understand; escaped from every type of relationship except the type of relationship in which you would expect love and respect; escaped… I put my boy Derek in his place. We had an awesome three-way with Douggerz, his partner of more than a decade. I shared time with my brother Odie and Cousin Rob. I had a photo shoot to document my current physical state. I was pampered more than one would expect. And I ran some much over-due scenes. To give you I glimpse into all of these things… Read the rest of this entry »

Folsom & the Aftermath

15 October 2009 23:14

PersonalFolsom & the AftermathSeattle, WA – Folsom was a challenge this year. It was a full working week, plus. Between flying in on Monday and then out again the following Monday, we shot three scenes for the Rough line, attended several Folsom related parties, had brunch with Brian Mills, who heads Titan’s production department, and dinner with the studio executives, performed at Magnitude, appeared at the Titan booth at the Folsom Street Fair and conducted a series of meetings relating to the Rough line. In the middle of all of this, Folsom Maneuvers was released, and, as I mentioned in my previous entry, my local boy here in Seattle was rushed to the hospital with a serious infection. While at times it may have felt a little overwhelming, I was in good company the entire time. Our Titan crew for Folsom included (pictured from left to right): Will Parker, JR Matthews, Chris Yosef, myself, Derek da Silva and Francois Sagat. Read the rest of this entry »

Released: Folsom Maneuvers

29 September 2009 21:26

CagedReleased: Folsom ManeuversSeattle, WA – This past weekend, in conjunction with Folsom Street Fair events, Titan Media released Folsom Maneuvers. Folsom Maneuvers is the seventh in the studio’s co-branded Folsom line of features following Folsom Filth, Folsom Leather, Fear, Folsom Prison, Folsom Undercover, and Folsom Flesh. It is also the fifth consecutive Folsom project that I’ve had the honor of being cast in as a performer. In Folsom Maneuvers‘ opening scene I’m paired with Adam Knox, who first appeared on screen in ROUGH: Shock Treatment which I co-directed with Paul Wilde. The chemistry between Knox and me had been growing since we first met here in Seattle, and my only regret regarding his performance in ROUGH: Shock Treatment was that I wasn’t fucking his sweet ass in that project, so I was eager to bring our connection to the screen. The weather couldn’t have been better at Titan ranch when we shot the scene which helped heighten the aggressive yet playful action. The scene is best described as dirty and wet.

Now, for a look behind the scenes of Folsom Maneuvers courtesy of TitanMen.com, an excerpt from the Scene Breakdown for Folsom Maneuvers and more… Read the rest of this entry »

Prep for Folsom Street Fair 2009

24 September 2009 21:53

PersonalPrep for Folsom Street Fair 2009San Francisco, CA – As if there isn’t enough going on in my life… I’m in San Fran shooting Rough.5 and preparing for a weekend full of events associated with Folsom Street Fair. I sometimes wonder how it all came to this craziness. This Folsom weekend represents my second anniversary in the adult industry if you count from the date of my first release. Two years in and I’m in the middle of directing my fifth project for the new Rough line of fetish/Sm features for Titan Media. I have sixteen titles released and three in the can to be released over the next few months, not to mention the three Rough projects in the works. Two years ago at this time I saw my image on a Titan banner, larger than life, and watched as the big screen monitor played out a scene in which my boy Derek, in full inverted suspension, got ravaged by Tober Brandt and myself in the official Folsom release, Fear. Last year I was NakedSword’s Dream Team Player for September with Folsom Prison highlighted in the Bar Area Reporter. This year, Folsom Maneuvers (my fifth consecutive Folsom release with Titan including Fear, Folsom Prison, Folsom Undercover and Folsom Flesh) debuts on the heels of Rough.3: Bound and Beaten. This year I’m slated for thre Folsom Maneuvers release party at the Powerhouse Friday night followed by an appearance at Chi Chi LaRue’s Pop Goes the Zipper; a family brunch, rehearsals, an Exclusives’ dinner with studio executives and a performance at Magnitude on Saturday; and the Folsom Street Fair on Sunday. But in actuality the only place I want to be is by my boy Timmy’s side. Read the rest of this entry »
