New Sensations President Scott Taylor says, “2010 was an extremely special year. Thank you to AVN for all the nominations, which recognize the hard work of everyone at New Sensations and Digital Sin in creating some of our most memorable movies ever.”
Sam Hain, Lee Roy Myers and Will Ryder all received Best Director—Feature nominations for their various titles with New Sensations and Digital Sin.
Hain, the director of The Sex Files 2 says, “I am really proud of what we were able to accomplish with The Sex Files 2, and it is a great honor to have that recognized by AVN. Much like the movie’s predecessor, we set out to produce an adult film with the look and feel of Hollywood, but all the hot sex our industry has the freedom to reveal. Each of the performers and crew poured themselves into their roles, and the result is fantastic. Congratulations to the entire Sex Files team for all our nominations.”
The Romance Series’ unique perspective towards filming sex scenes led to its 11 AVN nominations. Passion is promoted over acrobatics, with an emphasis on realistic positions. The camera angles are artistic, equally substantiating the beauty of the bodies, as the act of sex itself. Additionally, the script lends to well-developed characters, who viewers are able to identify with. An investment in the characters automatically makes the sex scenes more accessible and more intense. Awakening to Love is up for Best Feature, while the series is nominated for Best New Series.
If 2010 was the year of the 3D adult movie, then New Sensations led the way. Its distribution of Funky Monkey Movies further established the studio as an early adopter of innovative technology. MILF Memoirs 3D, Octopussy 3D: A XXX Parody and Porn Star Fantasies 3D are each nominated for Best 3D Release.
In addition, Digital Sin was the most awarded interactive adult studio, with My Plaything receiving Best Interactive DVD nominations for its Audrey Bitoni, Lexi Belle and Gianna volumes.
