Once in awhile the brain tends to kickout from adult video, and some new, unexplored territory is definitely in order to refurbish the old cerebral cortex. That's when companies such as Leda Productions, who manufacture sexy custom naked girl videos, prove to be a welcome respite.

With a custom video, you're the director. You pick the girl for the scene and you create the scene (within the boundaries of reasonable taste, of course). Generally, a custom video company works thusly: You provide a description of a vignette, detailing action, costume and dialog. You will in turn, be quoted a price, and if the company really knows what it's doing, and has a reputation in the field, will provide you with a selection of models to choose from. In just about all cases you'll be required to remit a 50% deposit up front and the balance when the video is completed. Price depends on how elaborate you want to get with your sex fantasies.

Now here is where the trust element enters the picture. And that's why I'm trying to help you take the guesswork out of this exercise and avoid some real intestinal grief. After all, would you just blindly send money to a company you never heard of, not knowing what product to expect, if you could expect any? There are some flimflammers out there, you know.

In that respect, my experience with Leda Productions has been a very pleasant surprise. The girls that do videos for them are very attractive and obviously know what they're doing on camera. To some models, seduce is another word for the two of diamonds, not so these girls who know just what it takes to melt a vidcam lens. Incidentally, Leda will also quote on hardcore scenes. But, the costs, obviously run much more.

I'm not going to get too detailed about the videos they provided me. Suffice to say, one of their models, Sally, does a terrific job interview vignette and an on-the-button rendition of a bobby soxer babysitter.

If all of this sounds remotely interesting, write to Leda at the address below and tell them AVN sent you.
