LOS ANGELES—AVN Award-winning performer/director Kenzie Taylor returns behind the camera for new Next Door Studios scene “Jake in the City,” a gritty tale of two men in a dark alley starring Roman Todd and Theo Brady.
“Shooting this film for me was so unique compared to your average scene," Brady said. "I find the scene itself so artsy and aesthetically pleasing. Working with Roman, Kenzie and the rest of the team was so amazing. Everyone on set was such professionals and always made sure that we were comfortable. It felt like we were all contributing ideas in our own ways to make the scene great and different, and from the looks of it we did just that. Highly recommend.”
“When Next Door Studios asked me to direct a scene for their Raw line, I was excited. I knew that with the concept I came up with, on top of the skill set of my crew and how incredible the performers chosen were, it would be nothing short of amazing,“ offered Taylor. “Directing gay porn is probably one of my favorite things to do. It's something I thoroughly enjoy, and capturing it with a different eye than most makes for a unique experience for the viewer. The concept I came up with for Next Door Raw was raunchy, sexy, no dialogue, just a lot of montage shots leading into a random hookup. I like getting the performers amped up with all of the suspense because it then makes for one incredible authentic performance. Working alongside Roman Todd and Theo Brady was a blast. They both were happy to be there and were a pleasure to be around ... not to mention how hot their scene was. Roman and Theo are both solid performers and I was honored that they trusted my vision and allowed me to create something incredible with them. I'm looking forward to seeing what else I can bring to Next Door Studios ... because I'm just getting started!”
“It’s a real pleasure to work with Kenzie,” said Jeremy Babcock, CCO of Next Door parent company Alpha Studio Group. “I absolutely love seeing how different directors bring their own style to each production, and with her experience on both sides of the camera, she has a truly special style that she brings.”
Added Todd, “Working with Kenzie Taylor for ‘Jake in the City’ was a blast! They couldn't have picked a better scene partner either. Having Theo Brady to work with was amazing. Not only was Theo easy to work with, but he’s sexy as hell too! We all had a blast walking around the streets of L.A. finding cool places to film B-roll until finally ending up at a beautiful house to film the rest of the sex scene. I look forward to working with Kenzie Taylor and Theo Brady again soon!”
