Private Media Group announced today the signing of an international distribution deal for the videos of adult film star Tera Patrick and her production company, Teravision.
Under terms of the agreement between Private and Teravision, Inc., Private will market her films in all territories outside the United States. Vivid Entertainment Group distributes Teravision's productions in the U.S.
In addition to the distribution of new videos starring Patrick, the agreement also includes an international output deal for other Teravision productions, which will be marketed under the Private brand and accompanied by major marketing campaigns. Patrick and Teravision were represented in the negotiations by Esquire Entertainment Group.
Private spokesman Richard Sharp commented: “We are delighted to associate the Private brand worldwide with one of the industry’s best known and most talented adult actresses. Tera Patrick's work is of the highest level of quality in adult entertainment. She has a massive fan base, with Internet search scores at a similar level to mainstream names such as Cameron Diaz or Kylie Minogue. This is a further example of Private’s ability to attract top names.”
Patrick said, “I feel as though I now have the best of both worlds: U.S. industry leader Vivid has masterfully distributed and marketed my best-selling films like Reign of Tera in America; now I'm honored that my movies will be associated with Private. The Private brand is synonymous with absolutely gorgeous movies and the company sets high standards by which adult movies are measured in Europe and throughout the world. I am looking forward to the glamour associated with the Private brand and in working with the company to support our joint activities.”
Evan Seinfeld, Teravision CEO and Patrick's husband, added, “Tera wanted to work only with the best international firm, and Private’s terrific distribution network and marketing abilities gives it this stature. Private perfectly compliments our amazing success in the U.S.A., where her films are instant bestsellers. Val Tolman of Esquire Entertainment was instrumental in developing this mutually beneficial agreement. We are grateful for his involvement and for the support of so many friends and colleagues who have stood by us. For the future, look for Tera’s new movies to be highly stylised, packed with hot stars and even hotter sex, with Tera pushing the limits of anything she has ever done on film before.”
Valentino Tolman of Esquire commented, “Having worked with Tera Patrick in the past and seen her incredible growth with Teravision, it was the right time to approach Private with a proposal that would take this adult super icon to a new level. I am very proud to be a part of this union that eclipses any other distribution alliance in adult history.”
