Hey everyone. Just wanted to say thanks to you all. I retired from making videos almost 6 years ago. I planned on leaving the videos up for a few months or maybe a year at the most. I assumed sales would stop and I would just delete them all, but here we are almost 6 years later and you guys are still buying them! Both Abs Pecs Pies and Uppercrust videos are still being bought. So thank you all for the support and sales! Thanks!
Oh and before anyone asks, no I will not be making any more videos.
Your scenes are still some of the best male wam scenes available. Even all these years later. My favourites are the two Karma vids and the commercial. It's a shame you're no longer doing them, but you've more than earned your retirement.
There are several things that make you great that other creators can take notes from:
1. Your quality of pies and slime. They are thick and cover the face and body.
2. The sheer amount of pies. Even if a pie doesn't hit perfectly there is always much more coming--the guys WILL be buried.
3. This is an important one: good camera work! Your camera is clear and the shot is clean. It shows everyone's FULL body and only does close-ups when necessary to enrich the scene. It helps a lot when a third person is available as a cameraman. Even your earlier work, which has a grainy camera typical of the time, is used better than I've seen from many other creators.
4. Another important one: you have a lot of videos and each one offers something a little different. The guys are in varying forms of dress from fully suited to completely naked. There are different scripts and scenarios to choose from. Sometimes there are no scripts. And you have so many different models to choose from! If something doesn't suit your fancy, there's always many other options to choose from. There are so many creators who do the exact same thing in every video so if you buy just one video from them you've basically bought them all.
5. Your videos are very reasonably priced. Not too cheap, not too expensive.
6. Perhaps the most important one: your guys have FUN!!! A lot of them also have great chemistry with one another. Even if the acting was a little cheesy or stiff, the videos never felt rigid, or cold, or mechanical. One of my favorite models you had was the bearded gent from the Christmas and the Angel/Devil video. He brought so much life to every scene he was in. Plus he had that wild, mischievous grin. He was great.
You were a pioneer during a time these videos were very uncommon. I remember you being basically the only decent store I could find aside from some clunky, shaky, dark Youtube videos from 2008.
But you basically did everything correct from the get-go despite being one of the first. That's why you continue to hold up so well!

Wow. Thank you so much. I really appreciate it and lot of what you mentioned was intentional. From the beginning I wanted to make sure you can see and hear everything and have it look as professional as possible. Even though I had no experience with that kind of stuff. I also loved having a variety of models. I figured it would keep it interesting for everyone and help sales. Plus, I'm not into pies, but I did enjoy hiring hot guys for the videos and yes that bearded guy was one of my favorites. He was very easy to work with and looked great with and with out clothes. By the way he is also in one of the Uppercrust videos as well.
Oh and I should not take all the credit. Most of my videos, both Uppercrust and Abs, were customs. So you a lot of what I did, and especially who I hired, was set by them. So you really have them to thank!
I just wish there was a similar producer around LA to carry on your legacy. The amount of guys available to do shoots there was huge, Thought we were onto something when Pie Zone started shooting Male content. Didn't last very long. I'm not going to pester you about shooting again. You've made it very clear you're retired and I fully respect that. Just wish it could've carried on.

Well, there are a lot out here if you pay them well. I was starting to run out of models when I stopped 5 years ago . I was putting up my ads every month for years so the pool was running dry but now I bet there are tons of guys who would do it for the right price.
