In response to the government requests that peole shelter in place due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all-male Pride Studios has announced that is has beun a program of collaboration with homebound performers to self-produce videos for release on the company's membership site.
The move highlights an emerging trend where studios are working closely with performers to create new content for members during the production freeze.
Last week saw the release of the first homemade scene for the site Men Over 30 featuring isolated couple Julian Torres and Alex Tikas. “Furry Beefy Fuckers” is one of many upcoming homemade scenes where self-isolating performers take control of the camera in solo or hardcore partner content.
“I am thrilled to be working with our models during this challenging time. Utilizing various technologies, I have been able to reach out to many of our models and direct them from afar in creating amateur homemade solo and duo content (for those isolated with partners),” said Gio Caruso, Pride Studios Producing Director.
“Being isolated at home isn’t fun for anyone, but the response from models has been tremendous. They are having fun creating homemade content and in turn making some much needed income. I am thrilled that we are able to provide a way for our talented models to be productive during this time. It’s a win for them, our loyal members, affiliate partners and our dedicated production team.”
The addition of performer-produced videos is only one of the several new content initiatives by Pride Studios. It will also be offering scenes from other industry sites free for members and creating themed and model-focused compilation videos. These new initiatives will support the collection of original content already produced prior to the industry shutdown to keep members engaged and uplifted during this time.
Performers and others who wish to participate and share their voice may follow @PrideStudios on Twitter.
