LOS ANGELES—Alt Erotic's Ivan recently won the Urban X Director of the Year Award.
“This was such a surreal moment and completely unexpected. One of the greatest moments of my career, as I have never had a spotlight on me like this before,” Ivan said. “What Giana and Alexander do to make Urban X Awards happen is beyond impressive, I am so grateful for them doing these as the most inclusive award show out there. I am honored in so many ways when it comes to this. 2024 has been a surreal year of success for Alt Erotic and our models, and now it feels incredibly complete."
Director of more than 5,000 scenes and 400 movies, Russian-born Ivan is a 23-year veteran of the adult industry with numerous directorial awards and two Hall of Fame inductions. He has been a driving force at Alt Erotic for the last six years and offered a range of media opportunities for performers in a safe environment for models to build their careers, grow their brands, and flourish. During his tenure, the company has strongly supported “alt” model growth.
Alt Erotic has also taken home several industry awards over the last four years, including movie awards for its creative style and roster of alt models. It is the only adult company in the world that shoots actual tattooing scenes with sex.
At this year’s Urban X Awards, Ivan was accompanied by several Alt Erotic models making their first public appearance at an industry award show, as well as a few performers he has mentored in recent years.
