LOS ANGELES—Mick Blue says the goal behind FuckingAwesome.com is simple.
“First of all, we are shooting everything in 4K so the goal is to do the website with the highest standard possible,” Blue tells AVN. “Every scene has specific storylines and lead-ins to it.”
The reigning, three-time AVN Male Performer of the Year is the main producer/director for the ambitious new site, which has been in beta launch for a month and is open to the public with no less than 16 full-length sex scenes—all available in 4K ultra-HD for free—with more on the way.
Not only are the scenes available to stream in 4K, they also feature some of the most sought-after performers in the business.
“The scenes are very-story based and detail oriented, completely different from what I usually do, which is mainly gonzo stuff,” says Blue, who continues to be one of the busiest guys in porn between shooting his own productions, performing for other studios and creating FuckingAwesome content.
This past Sunday Blue directed and performed in a threeway scene with Anya Olsen and Sydney Cole for a future FuckingAwesome update. On Wednesday, Blue welcomed Vicki Chase and Ryan Driller for another A-list encounter.
Some of the recent FuckingAwesome updates include Valentina Nappi & Logan Long in “The Pizza Delivery”; Tiffany Watson & Sean Michaels in “The Million Dollar Deal”; and Casey Calvert & Chad White in “The Yoga Instructor.”
Janice Griffith, Natalia Starr, Jynx Maze, Melissa Moore and Riley Reid are among the other stars already appearing on FuckingAwesome.
“We try to get the top girls possible,” says Blue, who is directing about eight scenes a month for the Panama-based site with help from one of the industry's most reliable go-to videographers, Sal Genoa.
FuckingAwesome will continue with free weekly updates during its beta phase until at least July 1—after that the site will begin rolling out one new premium episodic series per month that will be available on a subscription basis.
“Like a Netflix approach,” says Fucking Awesome CMO Brad John.
One of the first series is centered on the fictitious Fucking Awesome dating app.
“For example the girls are having a girls day or a girls night hanging out together, drinking wine and they are chatting about their lives and then somehow they find out one of them is using the FuckingAwesome dating app. So they start messaging the guys,” Blue explains.
Naturally, the conversation leads to a threesome.
“We are shooting in total about 12 episodes of the Fucking Awesome dating app and every scene incorporates that theme,” Blue says.
The ownership team behind FuckingAwesome brings more than 20 years of adult industry experience to the site with a track record of success with numerous amateur niches. They worked closely with Blue on various ventures for the past five-plus years before asking him to take a leadership role with FuckingAwesome.
Though the focus of the site for now is on established American porn stars, plans call for expanding to shoot top performers in countries such as Czech Republic and Germany.
“We have this idea to do scenes around the world, with like who will be the biggest porn star of Colombia or the biggest porn star of Czech? And try to showcase what the world has to offer,” Brad John says.
Justin Lally, a seasoned porn shooter with Reality Kings and BangBros, is also directing scenes for FuckingAwesome, John notes.
Meanwhile the FuckingAwesome executive says the site is installing technology they claim is an industry first.
“We’re implementing the possibility to Chromecast the streaming files in 4K,” John says. “So you can Chromecast it in 4K and AirPlay straight from your phone or tablet in HD.”
Chromecast is a media streaming device that plugs into the HDMI port on your TV and allows you to use your mobile device and the TV to stream movies and more. It works with iPhone, iPad, Android phone and tablet and Mac and Windows laptops.
John says his team also spent numerous hours testing the site on every web browser and platform.
“That’s something that also sets us a bit apart—it’s very smooth on any device. It doesn’t matter which platform,” John says.
FuckingAwesome is also launching with a focus on social media marketing—Alix Lynx did an AMA in May—and the Blog section of the site includes several candid interviews with the stars.
“We’re definitely in the game for the long run,” Blue says. “The goal is to take the whole thing to the next level.”
