Japan was great and it is an amazing country. Jim Crawford, Allen Ma
(owners on Vengeance Entertainment) and I landed in Japan on the 12Th,
and got started with pre-production. There is a huge AV. market in Japan
(They abbreviate it, adult video.)
The models can range from 3k a day up to 30k and sometimes 50K. As
far as locations, there were great studios. The one we choose was great
and the staff really helped me out on some of the wardrobe and transportation.
And with transportation being one of the hardest aspect of shooting
in Japan. Even the people that live in Tokyo need GPS to get around
with out getting lost.
After the studios we looked at this old Japanese house. Rumor has it,
it was 160 years old house. Without a doubt it had a great vibe. It
had a great bathroom, a kind of sitting room, as well as a great traditional
Tatani Room. Perfect for filming. We locked that location down for two
days. We than chose a few more that would best suit our project and
lock them down also.
We then went over the talent and figured out what scenario we wanted
them in and then it was off to go shop for props and wardrobe. When
I saw it I didn't believe it at first, but the subways are crazy. There
are a million lines and nothing is in English. You have to find a special
board that has English and even when you do it is impossible to figure
out. You have to rely on the kindness of others to help ya out.
So we went to Akiabara, their electronic city. There is one store that
is as big as Fry's, now add 6 levels to that. AMAZING! We hung out there
and then went off to buy props. We stumbled into this one store that
had everything. Stuff to hang on the walls, small stuff for countertops,
and some cool outfits.
Next was going over to the Makeup artist, who was also a stylist and
had tons of clothes and props. When it came to picking the kimonos they
where very serious. Everything means something. The longer arm Kimonos
are for married women, and the shorter ones are for the single gals.
So when I wanted the long ones they insisted that was not right and
we should have the smaller ones. With a little translation, we helped
them to understand that that didn't matter to me, I wanted the longer
ones cuz …..a) They looked better, more flowing and …b) the colors they
had in those where better for the look of the movie.
All in all it was a good visit, if ya don't count the cat trying to
attack me. Evil pussy! Soon our equipment, crew (MIKE D WHAT UP JACKPOT?),
and Nick Manning arrived. Sergio was booked to go, Vengeance even bought
him a ticket after he agreed to go. Then last minute…….. Flaked! Costing
the Vengeance 1 plane ticket to Japan . We ended up having to hire 2
guys in Japan. They turned out to be pretty cool guys.
Now it was time to shoot. 10 shoot days total. I would say the only
problem on the trip was the language barrier. The behind the scenes
will be funny. Some thing like" David Lords' sort of gay pose off",
due to the fact I had to show them how to do it cuz telling them wasn't
working, even with a translator. They are not accustomed to shooting
a lot of PG. ( 30 mins) So things just took longer ( 1 hr and 30 mins).
The sex was different in Japan. The girls make different noises, faces,
and it was the first time for all of them take on western cocks, So
you will get to see real Asian women getting a big western cock for
the 1st time. The guys that we hired in Japan ----ed there brains out
for us and it looked great. They did a great job, Nick really stepped
up and killed it. He attacked it and pulled back when he needed to.
Really all pro. Soon Nick left and Derrick Pierce and Cheyne Collins
came in. Now Derrick had been there before, being a world champion fighter.
Like kung foo ----. He is gonna kill me for forgetting what Ti Chi Do
was, but got paid to come out and kick some ass. Both him and Cheyne
did a great job.
I was lucky to have really strong talent and great scenes. The days
off we went around Japan shooting b-roll and shopping. I was on the
hunt for boobs (not a lot of luck but found a few). The country is beautiful
and, the women are stunning. We got spun around more than few times,
just walking by them,
Waw some great sites, made some new friends, and hung out with some
old ones. The food was great (The best sushi I have ever had), the beer
and sake was great . The country was gorgeous as where the women. If
you want to see western guys with real Asian women you will love these
movies from Vengeance.
