3D Doll Porn, RealTouch and a New ‘Ambassador of Strange’.

So, you say it’s your birthday?

It’s Thanksgiving, and so we’re getting ready to take a couple days off to eat turkey and hopefully not much else. Before I shut down mission control here for some much needed ‘down time’, I’ll fill you in on a couple of new developments here at Maddy G.

We started work on “A Very Jenny Christmas” for December. It’s a new Doll Porn Adventure and we’ve been discussing shooting it in 3D. I had some concerns that all the ‘Reds’ in the costuming would fuck with the Anaglyphic (Red / Blue) Playback. So, I did some test shots, and it turns out not to be the case.

Pretty remarkable, I’d say. There’s actually some science to why the color scheme isn’t a problem. In the Anaglyphic Post Process, the ‘Left Eye’ video has all the Blue and Green levels removed, leaving only the Red. Then, the ‘Right Eye’ video has all the Red Levels removed, leaving the Blue and Greens, so when the two images are overlapped, all three color channels (RGB) are represented.

In this above shot of Jenny, I shot both ‘Eyes’ handheld, rather than using the 3D Camera Mount we built. I’ve been doing a ton of 3D shooting and post lately and I have a pretty good handle on the post process, so I just wanted to see if I could do it by ‘feel’.

“A Very Jenny Christmas” is a short film like “Award Show Fiasco”, so I think it might be a good project to try it on, especially because I can fit both versions on a DVD. We’ll be shooting it right after the break, so I’ll keep you posted on it goes. If it’s a pain in the ass on day one, I’ll probably abandon the 3D on this one, because we only have 4 days to shoot on this before I’ll start running into deadline crunch’s to get it out by Christmas.

In other news… This is a little early, but Maddy G Productions will be part of the re-launch of RealTouch, the virtual sex machine that was so popular, it’s been sold out for many months. The company didn’t anticipate the demand I guess, and quickly sold out of the machines and had to do another manufacturing run.

If you’re not familiar with it, you plug this baby into your computer, then plug yourself into the unit ( you know what I mean) and then watch ‘RealTouch Enabled’ movies that react precisely with the action on the scene. So, what you see – you also feel. And at a price point of around $200, it uhm… blows away any other virtual sex device on the market.

In January, RealTouch will be re-introducing the device with a new marketing campaign and new studio partners, and I’m proud to say we’ll be a part of that. Many of Maddy’s ‘Girlfriend Experience’ movies like “Naughty Bits” and “Oral Servitude” will be available “RealTouch Enabled” as well as a couple of brand new films shot specifically for it. And that’s just skimming the surface, but like I said, it’s still pretty early.

In the fury of bullshit that was going on in the last couple of weeks, with our computers being hacked, and whatnot, I don’t think I mentioned that we have a new Ambassador of Strange, Lewis Adams. Congrats to Hyland Church on his promotion.

Lastly, we have been nominated for 4 AVN Awards this year.
“Best Pro-Am Series” for “Inside Marie’s Play Place”
”Best Specialty Release” for “Lil’ Stella’s Really Short Stories”
”Best Solo Release” for “Alone at Last”
and our 2nd Nomination for “Best Original Song” this time for “What Am I Gonna Do About It” from “Inside Marie’s Play Place 4”. The song was co-written by Hyland Church actually, and performed by Harlow. Last year it was “Kiss The Girl” written by Denny Smith and Performed by Best of Seven, from the “Regarding Jenny” Soundtrack.

Enjoy your thanksgiving, and travel safe.
