SAN FRANCISCO, CA — Last year NakedSword walked away as one of the big winners of the night in Chicago at The Grabbys (known as the Oscars of gay adult awards) winning Best Megasite, Best VOD Site, Best Screenplay and Best Actor. This year NakedSword and NakedSword Originals (the studio arm of the mega VOD/Membership site) are celebrating another year of major Grabby award nominations across multiple categories including Best Movie, Best Director, Best Video Company Site, and Best Original Content as well as many more totaling 19 nominations across NakedSword's adult network of original content, film performances, and adult blogs.
NakedSword's two year old studio arm, NakedSword Originals (with direction by multiple award-winning director mr. Pam and executive produced by NakedSword President Tim Valenti) is now a full-fledged adult studio creating compelling original features in the business. This year, multiple NakedSword Original features are nominated including Golden Gate 5: The Cover Up, DreamTeam, Into The Wilde and the studio’s smash release of 2013, FratHouse Cream, which took home a total of eight nominations, making it one of the most nominated movies of the year.
NakedSword President and Founder Valenti says of the nominations, "I want to say a big thank you to Mark, Stacy and the entire Grabby committee for recognizing the hard work we put into our original productions and state-of-the-art VOD membership site. NakedSword is 16 years old and we've never been more diversified as a company and more confident about our creative output than we are today in 2014!"
Director and head of production for NakedSword Originals mr. Pam says of the nominations, "I couldn't be happier that we have multiple movies nominated. Last year was a great year for our original productions. With our unique style of filmmaking and standout performances, coupled with the out-of-the-box marketing of our series, NakedSword Originals isn't your typical adult studio and we wouldn't have it any other way. I can't wait to see everyone in Chicago to celebrate the best in gay adult film!"
NakedSword will be on hand at the Grabbys ceremony taking place Memorial Day weekend in Chicago. See below for a full list of NakedSword's 19 Grabby nominations.
