Stuart Wall has been named the new general manager of Smash Pictures, replacing Lewis Adams who has joined the sales staff at Jill Kelly Productions.
Wall, a veteran adult salesman, has been in the adult industry since 1989, starting his career with VCX and working for a number of companies over the years including Elegant Angel, where he was before joining Smash Pictures a year ago to head their sales department.

Wall will still head the sales department but is involved in production as well. “I’ve already begun implementing changes that I think will help the company moving forward,” Wall told AVN.com.
The first of those changes was tweaking the company logo into a 3D design that Wall says symbolizes Smash’s movement into the future, which includes a new roster of directors including one of Michael Raven’s top editors, who will be using the professional name of “Roger Dodger.”
“I've always said it's the editor who is the key to the movie, and he's one of the best I've ever worked with,” Wall said. “He's ready to step up to directing, and I believe in his ideas.”
Jordan Heart and Zora Banx, will continue working with Smash by directing some European lines, as will veteran director Frank Thring. Domestically, Mark Anthony, Lee G., and Kira Eggers will continue to shoot their respective lines for Smash.
Work on a revamped SmashPictures.com will launch in the next few weeks, and visitors to the domain will see a temporary version of the Website until the work is complete.
“Plus, we have more things coming, such as our new sampler disks and catalogs to be debuted at the VSDA show come July in Vegas,” Wall said.
