It's porn journalist/personality/Cocktails-With-the-Stars-host Jason Sechrest's first time directing. Even more momentous, he's directing his first project, Bully, for his own company, the newly formed DV8 Entertainment.
I've been invited to observe the first day's shooting: two sex scenes and some dialogue. When I arrive, Caleb Carter is on his knees choking on Bobby Williams' cock as stills photographer Violet is snapping away. After she's gotten the shots she needs, they resume the action for the video camera. After more dick-sucking, Bobby whips Caleb around and pulls his pants down.
"Get that ass ready for me," he commands. Caleb drools spit on his hand and slicks his hole with it, then fucks himself with a finger. Bobby yanks Caleb's ass open and production assistant Chris Green closes in with the hand-held "P-light" to illuminate Caleb's hole for the camera.
"That's exactly what I want," Sechrest says approvingly, "the Dirk Yates shot" (referring to the famous shots of spread-cheeked, winking butt-holes that Yates gets of 99% of his straight Marine soloists).
During a condom-and-lube break, Sechrest fills me in on the plot. Bobby plays the title character, a jock who bullies, fucks, and then threatens other male students with physical violence if they mention that they've had sex with him.
There are, additionally, two important things about this production, one is the return of supersexy Italian stud Marc Anthony who hasn't made a movie for several years. The other is the first-time bottoming of superhung Christian Owen whose debut at 18 in Junior Studio's California Gold was hailed as one of the most promising and exciting of 2000. These two have a scene together this afternoon — another reason I've come to the set today. Sechrest, who had a rather well-publicized affair with Owen five years ago, tells me that he unconsciously wrote a part for him in Bully and how weird it is to be directing Owen in stuff he's been through with him.
Meanwhile, Caleb remarks how he is allergic to a certain brand of lubricant. "I used it on my last movie and broke out — it was like I was on fire!"
"That's why we brought three kinds," Sechrest interjects.
Bobby fucks Caleb as aggressively as you'd expect his character to. Videographer Drew Warner gets a great down-shot of the penetration. "How's that, Jason?" "I wish we didn't have any shadows at all, but I guess we can't fix that." "We can't," Warner confirms. "Then it's perfect," Sechrest says.
Caleb spreads his ass for Bobby, which gives a great view of the in-and-out. Caleb tells Bobby he can pull his hair. Bobby does and gives him a good slap too as he rapidly thrusts into him. As the scene builds in energy and intensity, Caleb calls out to Bobby, "Fuck me like you fuck your girlfriend!" Sechrest loves it and shouts, "Bravo!" when the segment is over.
More stills, more anal-sex positions, and they're in the home stretch. Suddenly, the camera loses the picture. And Caleb was just about to come. "My boys were swimmin'," he says. When Warner gets the picture back, Caleb has lost his hard-on. They decide to break for nutrition and then get the cum-shots.
After everyone's rested a bit, they go for the cum. Caleb, upended onto his shoulders, squirts jizz down onto his face while Bobby thrusts into his ass. Bobby jacks off on Caleb, then it's time for close-ups and dialogue. Bobby grabs Caleb's neck and sneers, "You tell anyone about this and you're dead." "Fucking great!" Sechrest exclaims.
We wander over to the classroom set where Violet is shooting glamour stills of Anthony and Owen. Christian is very outspoken and candid. (Guess who's a Sagittarius!) When Marc poses behind the teacher's desk he pulls out his dick. Sechrest says, "I didn't remember that your cock was so big. Poor Christian Owen!" Christian, whose screen-virgin ass will soon house it, looks over and agrees.
Sechrest blocks the movement with the actors and Warner, then calls for the crew to sit in desks and impersonate students during the opening dialogue portion. Once the sex scene between Christian and Marc gets underway (at 4:30 — right on time), we get to see once again what makes Christian so great. He sucks Marc brilliantly. What a BJ! Sechrest says, "Kiss the tip — little kisses, no tongue." Christian does this and it's very hot. Sechrest shivers with excitement. Christian understands everything instinctively, Sechrest only has to give the briefest direction and Christian does it perfectly. After Marc goes down on Christian, it's time for the big moment.
When Marc's cock is lodged in Christian's ass and he starts to pump, Sechrest says, to the character Christian is playing, "Breathe a lot. Moan. It's the first time you've ever been fucked. If it hurts, let us see it."
Christian switches and sits on Marc's erection. Sechrest: "Keep that energy. Lots of moaning. Lean back, let your cock flop around. Yes!" Back to a rear-entry position and Warner on the floor shooting up, Sechrest says, "Christian, your hole is beautiful! This is everything you'd want your bottoming debut to be: good footage, big cock, good lighting."
After a third position, Marc jizzes Christian's crack and Christian J.O.'s straight down on the desk. And it's a wrap. Two more sex scenes and pages and pages of dialogue will be filmed over the next several days, then Bully goes into editing for a February or March 2006 release.
