PARIS—Leading European adult movie producer Marc Dorcel has announced a new initiative that presents web users with an exciting chance to co-produce the company’s next adult movie.
Through its new website, www.mydorcel.com, the company provides all web users of legal age the unique opportunity to have a real stake in its next adult production. The event, which users can participate in through a “crowd-funding” system, will run mid-June in France. The final product will be officially released in October 2010 on DVD and exclusively on VOD in September 2010.
The idea is simple, if unique. Web users can buy one or several shares of the next adult movie production for a price of 20 euros per share. The more shares the web user buys, the more benefits s/he will enjoy.
With the purchase of one 20 euro share, the company says, web users will be able to access the behind-the-scenes site for the movie, exclusive info and content, and promotional games that enable them to win a day on the set or a photo session with the actresses. In addition, they will have exclusive access to the movie preview.
With the purchase of two shares, co-producing web users’ names will be listed in the movie credits, and from the third share they will cash in on the movie’s revenues. In addition, co-producers will receive a DVD signed by the actresses and will be able to spend one day on set, and meet the movie team, the director and Marc Dorcel. They will even have a photo session with the actresses. Purchase of the highest shareholding available, valued at 10,000 euros, will allow the lucky co-producer to have his own scene shot.
“For the first time ever and to the contrary of participatory sites aiming at a finished product,” the company says, “co-producing web users will follow all the stages of the creative process of the movie and will be involved in the project from beginning to end for casting, set, script, photographs, visual aspects and title selection.”
The company adds that Marc Dorcel movies are distributed in more than 56 countries and are known to be among the best adult movies worldwide, which they say should bring a very good return on investment to shareholders.
