This is a short film competition that seeks to encourage new female directors who are exploring themes of sex and sexuality in film. This year’s theme is “Female Fantasies”. Directors can submit any kind of film – erotica, animation or documentary for example – that feature female fantasies in an innovative, creative and artistic way. The Read More …

The Thought Of Her DVD – Trailer

Yesterday I happily mailed off four copies of my new film The Thought Of Her to the Feminist Porn Awards. I’ve spent the last month editing and finalising this, my first long-form erotic film. It’s an extension of the idea behind the short film of the same name – erotic images of male masturbation combined with a sexy voiceover. The tame preview, above, gives an idea of what the film Read More …

I.M. In Love Trailer

Just before Christmas I finished my latest short film I.M. In Love and hurriedly submitted it to the Cinekink film festival in New York. Then I went on holiday. I’m pleased to say that the film has been selected to screen at Cinekink during the “Coupling” Program on 10th February 2012. And since this has happened I had to get off my butt and edit together a little trailer for Read More …

The Amazing, Inspiring Berlin Porn Film Festival 2011

I’m home again, jetlagged but also bursting with inspiration and motivation after my visit to this year’s Berlin Porn Film Festival. All up I may have spent about six days travelling to and from Berlin but it was totally worth the time, effort and money just to be there and be surrounded by so many fascinating ideas and creativity. And, of course, I got to meet some wonderful people and Read More …

The Thought Of Her – Trailer

The Thought Of Her – Trailer from Louise Lush on Vimeo. A month ago I made a new short film. It’s a male-masturbation video called “The Thought Of Her” and it features the gorgeous Adam. I tried to go beyond the standard jerk off video and include something of the mental processes involved in self-pleasure. I did this via a monologue, detailing what might go through a man’s mind as Read More …

Room 33 By Erika Lust

Room 33 Erika Lust from boolab on Vimeo. Here is Room 33, a new sexy movie by Erika Lust (as written about in this post from a few days ago). It just looks luscious. And what I really admire is the way Erika can tell her story with minimal dialogue or none at all; she’s really good at getting ideas and emotions across through framing, editing and good acting. That’s Read More …

The Punishment For Screening Porn In Australia Is… A Donation?

In August last year, film director Richard Wolstoncroft decided to engage in some civil disobedience. He had wanted to screen the film LA Zombie, an explicit gay film about zombies, at the Melbourne Underground Film Festival (MUFF). The Australian censors did not grant permission for him to do so – it’s illegal to publicly screen porn in Australia. Angered by the banning of the film, Mr Wolstoncroft organised a “public Read More …

Batman XXX Review Notes

I’ve just finished writing a review of Batman XXX: A Porn Parody for For The Girls. That goes live shortly but I thought I’d quickly post some of the notes I made while writing the film, just for a laugh. —– The jokes are good but sometimes the delivery is a bit too slow. Needs quicker editing. Dale DaBone looks like he’s had very bad plastic surgery. Thankfully he’s in Read More …

Life Love Lust Preview

LIFE LOVE LUST This is the trailer for Erika Lust’s new film Life Love Lust. As you can see it looks amazing – really high production values and interesting imagery galore. I think Erika’s films are the real future of porn: good quality, interesting stories, hot sex. And I also applaud Erika’s unapologetic determination to cater to straight women. The official blurb is: LIFE: After finishing the day in the Read More …

The Star, a Canadian media site, features an article called What Women Are Starting To Want. Starting? Ahem. Anyway, it features an interview with Mimi Balfour who last year made the softcore film Man of My Dreams. The film won a Feminist Porn Award and Mimi says she now has distribution for it through the Sinclair Institute. I’m still having trouble finding it on my usual sites, will keep looking. Read More …

Jamye Waxman’s 101 Positions For Lovers

Last year my friend Jamye Waxman disappeared to Jamaica (of her own accord) in order to film a new instructional adult movie. She then amused us on Twitter with her ongoing search to delineate all 101 sex positions featured in this film. I was amazed that she managed to even find 50 positions, let alone 101. There’s only so many places your arms and legs and cock and cunt can Read More …
