I got the news just a few days ago that we were in high risk, and in fact have lost our distribution. The reason being is the highly competitive niche of the Twink DVD market. I have to agree that we are not set up to battle the giants like Bel Ami® or other big brand name studios, but that has never been our intention. We started setting out with the goal to make porn we liked as a group of highly diversified pornographers. We have proved that with the Keith Manheim website, it retains, sells and competes with large number of websites out there and scores highly on many user review and webmaster written review sites.
We regret that this is happening but as always there are opportunities at every turn and we will surely not stop distribution the Keith Manheim line of DVDs. This year we are set to launch five new titles and are in negotiations with a new distributor that appreciates our artistic values more than our previous company.

I had just the biggest problem the other day when shooting ‘Shaving his Virginity’, I had set up my camera to catch the cum splashing action of the actor into the young recipients mouth but the bloody cum dripped on the other side with almost no cum visible from where my camera was set up. I guess you can’t always guess how gravity calculates in to the cum equation but in this case I misjudged the headwind by far :<
We ended up waiting, eating and feasting on some great protein rich foods and re-shot the scene with the cum dripping on the correct side of the cheek. Kind of makes one wonder, can someone make a cum splash projection formula for me?

I followed an advice from a friend of mine last year and shot my first Fetish title in the Keith Manheim video line titled ‘Virgin Spank‘. I really don’t want my blog to turn into an infomercial but since I am a pornographer and my job revolves around my films and website I thought I’d give you some insight into the making of this wonderful title.
After the initial casting we ended up with three youthful young guys that all where into experimental sex and really wanted to try out starring in a fetish Spanking movie. We had rented a dungeon, actually, I’m not sure if its a dungeon if its located on the 4th floor of an apartment building :) We stumbled up the stairs with our equipment and the models where so nice to help us carrying the stuff, it was a few hundred kilos and would have killed me and my assistant Globo if we hadn’t gotten the help. Usually the models are so lazy and busy with their looks that they don’t care what the production crew is up to, so this was a greatly appreciated exception.
When setting up was finished and we where ready to shoot we went through the story line with the cast. It wasn’t a complicated script and I wont go into the storyline, just buy the DVD or get a membership to Keith Manheim and download the movie. This day was extremely hot and with the addition of 5000W of lights it quickly became unbearable inside the dungeon. It kind of gave the movie a good look to have the guys loathed in a thin layer of sweat and was kind of sexy. Anyway, after 12 hours of shooting the film we actually managed to wrap up shooting on this title in one day, a record for us since we usually shoot one scene pr. day but these actors where just so good and did their job so fantastically that we ended up having way more material than we needed for the title at the end of the day.
