HOLLYWOOD, Calif.—Alt Erotic’s director of production, Ivan, will be inducted into the XRCO Awards Hall of Fame, set to take place on May 25.
Spanning nearly 23 years in the adult industry and over 30 years in filmmaking and television production, Ivan has worked with top studios and talent. He applied his cinematography education and background to projects such as Texas’ Asshole Massacre for Evolution Erotica and Extreme Associates, star showcases for his co-owned Puba Pornstar Network, and current multi-award winning Ink Motel series for Alt Erotic.
Ivan has appeared on film festival stages, industry panels and has now earned his third Hall of Fame induction as a director in the adult industry. He is also a member of both the AVN and Urban X Awards Halls of Fame, has received AVN's Best Web Director award, and is the current Urban X Awards Director of the Year.
XRCO Awards Chairman Dirty Bob said, "Ivan wants to know why we inducted him into the XRCO Hall of Fame. I would like to say that it’s due to his rugged good looks. Or maybe it’s because we found that suitcase at the front door filled with hundred-dollar bills. Then again, it could’ve been all those girls he sent over to our place at three in the morning, who all had a high sex drive, a short term attention span, big boobs, and came equipped with industrial strength, glow-in-the-dark knee pads. Actually, the reason we put him in isn’t quite as fun and exciting as all that. It is simply because he does such a great job, puts a lot of care into everything he shoots, is appreciated by most viewers, and quite frankly deserves it."
In 2018 and 2019, Ivan won back-to-back XRCO Awards for Best Director.
Said Ivan, "I can’t truly express how happy and proud I am of this induction. So much hard work and sacrifice are put into what I do. It’s all about the creative outlet and helping models build something important for themselves. What a journey and what a feeling. Simply put, I can close, take a deep breath and fucking smile!"
