00:00So tell us about, I want to hear about the bottom floor first.
00:03Okay.
00:04Because I know that that's something that you guys are really excited about.
00:07We are.
00:07Very, very excited about.
00:08So bottom floor came as a passion project.
00:12The last year of AVN before COVID, we ended up at a dark leather party type of environment.
00:20And I had gathered the troops because I was like, hey, friends, I'm going to go get fisted in the middle of this party.
00:25And I want you to all be there and watch and have a good time.
00:28For friendship.
00:29For friendship.
00:29Yeah.
00:30Friendship fisting party.
00:31Yeah, exactly.
00:32And we did it.
00:33And it was great.
00:34It was super fun.
00:34It was so much fun.
00:35Everybody just said, you know, like, said no pressure anything scenario.
00:38Nobody had to do anything.
00:39There was one main sex act, but because, you know, everyone had their hands in Michael Pye, so to speak.
00:45But then, like, Robbie and Siri just started going at it, you know, like in the corner.
00:51And then, like, some other people.
00:52And it was like, oh, we're, like, having a spontaneous sex party right here.
00:55It was, like, safe, curated, performer-only space.
00:58But at a, like, dance venue.
01:01Dark wave.
01:02Gosh.
01:02So, it felt like we were there for the dance party.
01:06Right.
01:06This was incidental.
01:08You know, it brought me back to all the times of, like, going to Torture Garden or going to, like, a Faustian society thing.
01:14Or going to-
01:15Black unicorn.
01:15Yeah, going to these parties that are, like, very queer and very fetish-oriented.
01:21But, like, they're also selling alcohol, so you can't really have sex legally in a way that is conducive to what we wanted to do, which is film everything.
01:30Mm-hmm.
01:31And we, you know, we, after years and years of trying to, like, come up with how to do it and the plannings, we came up with the bottom floor.
01:41We got an opportunity through adult time to do a director showcase.
01:44And they were like, what do you want to do?
01:45Could you do something for one of the existing brands?
01:47Like, Ricky Greenwood did a very involved Pure Taboo episode starring Tommy Pistol with some prosthetics and stuff.
01:54They're like, what do you want to do?
01:54And we're like, well, it's not a current brand, but it's this.
02:00And we kind of pitched the bottom floor, which is a pansexual, inclusive sex party.
02:06Really, it's not quite a POV, but the main character is engaging with the audience.
02:10So the experience the audience is having is, like, a front row seat to what it's like to go to an underground, performer-only, pansexual, kinky sex party with, in this case, the pilot episode with Siri Doll.
02:25And so she's constantly referring back to the camera and being like, okay, let's do this together.
02:29I've always wanted to do this.
02:30I'm really nervous, but you're going to be with me, right?
02:32And so that experience of going with someone, which is an experience we've gotten to share many times, we wanted to bring that to a larger audience.
02:40And, like, folks in the middle of the country that may never get an opportunity to go to something like this.
02:45We wanted to give them an opportunity to feel that feeling because it's a great feeling.
02:49Does the POV person, do they also engage in the sex act?
02:54They're just watching.
02:55They're just watching.
02:55So it really is like a voyeuristic.
02:56I am the POV.
02:57Right.
02:58And so there's no sex involved, but there's definite youth, like, Siri's looking right into the camera.
03:04So, like, looking right at your eyes and talking to you like you're their partner that went to the party with them.
03:09And so you get this, like, sense of security and enjoyment of watching Siri, what's going on also.
03:13And going back to non-monogamous, it's, like, a great way to take a look at non-monogamy for the first time of, like, seeing your partner that's having such a great time.
03:21And then at the end, it's like, no, let's go home now.
03:23I'm ready to go home with you.
03:25It's like, oh, that's cool.
03:26Right.
03:26I love that.
03:27It's so fun.
03:28And, yeah, we just – it's so wonderful to create a space.
03:31Because, like, so many of us, you know, we're show-offs.
03:34We're exhibitionists and voyeurs.
03:36So to give our community a space to really show off exactly how they want to, but also be in a no-pressure situation.
03:43It's just, like, you don't have to do this, like, hardcore BDSM thing.
03:46But I'm going to come over, and if you're doing something, we would love to capture it on camera.
03:50And seeing that spark come up, like, we had beautiful Zariah Ora and Nikki Zeal, who are a real-life T4T partner, just going at it.
03:59Like, I was getting, like, thwacked in the balls so hard.
04:03And Nikki was, like, the only person on the fuck machine just getting railed.
04:07And just, you know, seeing people – I've never seen either of them do that on set.
04:11You know, I've had them both on set plenty of times.
04:14And it's just, like, cool to see people kind of bring out their hidden talents or, you know, when given the opportunity to play in a safe environment, like, people will give you the world.
04:24And it's so beautiful that we've got to capture it.
04:26It's a party you can't pay your way into.
04:28No.
04:28Right?
04:29Nobody is paying to be there.
04:30And so you don't have the same pressure as a performer of, like, I have to show off for this person that paid money.
04:35There isn't somebody that's there that doesn't know how to look at you without requiring your attention, right?
04:40And so they can be there and just watch, and they're not hoping you turn around and look at them and give them that attention.
04:45Right, right, right.
04:46It's really a true voyeuristic setting that is safe with people that know how the rules work.
04:52And so you don't have to have this, like, extra layer of armor on you as a performer in a civilian setting live sex show type of thing.
04:59So, like, we get to create the space for our performer friends to be their authentic selves and have sex the way they really want.
05:06It's such a fun, beautiful experience.
05:07And it was really fun to create a kink space that, like, aesthetically and sort of functionally and within – it was rooted in something sort of that divests from that heteronormative space.
05:19Like, it's not red and black and Edwardian and het doms beating white cis girls.
05:27Like, that's not the BDSM that we're interested.
05:30We're interested in BDSM that comes from the gay underground, the goth underground, the, you know, queer people making art and having sex with bravery and freedom.
05:41Like, that's the bottom floor.
05:42And I'm just so glad we got to bring it into the world.
05:44And it's getting the recognition that I think it absolutely deserves.
05:47So, is it one scene and, like, how long is it and how many, like, different – like, how did you film it?
05:53It edited down to 70 minutes.
05:5576 minutes.
05:55Total.
05:5676 minutes.
05:56Yeah.
05:57And then –
05:57We had three cameras going.
05:59And the way it works is we start the party.
06:02And then I follow the guest in as, like, a POV.
06:06And we had the other two cameras filming the party.
06:08So, I get the arrival at the party.
06:10We have the party.
06:11That's happening already.
06:12It's, like, we party for, like, three hours.
06:16Yeah, two and a half.
06:16After all's said and done, it's, like, three hours straight through.
06:19But you don't have to, like –
06:20Two breaks in the middle.
06:20Yeah, you don't have to, like, keep partying the whole time.
06:23You get to, like, step back and watch and just be in the environment.
06:26Are you not really giving people too much direction?
06:30You're just, like, here's this environment.
06:32Do what you want to do.
06:33And we're going to, like –
06:34There's one scene that's happening, right?
06:37Okay.
06:37It's a DP scene in the middle of the party.
06:40Okay.
06:40So, no matter where you go around 360 looking at the DP scene, the party is in the background.
06:46Right.
06:46Okay.
06:46And that is how we end up capturing so much, right?
06:49Yeah.
06:49Okay.
06:50It's, like, it's really just one sex scene.
06:52But there's also so much else going on that it extends it into a thing.
06:57So, like, Siri will be doing, you know, starts with blowjob, starts with a thing over here with this person at this party.
07:02And then, like, she walks away for that for a minute and you get to concentrate on, like, the things in between.
07:07Then we come back and land on Siri and it's like, oh, look, she found herself on a sofa with Penny Barber and Dabin Strong and now they're fucking over here.
07:14And so, it's, like, it's kind of like a shift in and out.
07:18We have a bunch of, like, sort of levels of performers.
07:21So, we have the main event, right?
07:22The people who are putting on the live sex show, which, again, this is, like, I've been to sex parties where it's a similar situation.
07:28You have your show and then you have the folks who are around playing and then people who are just watching.
07:32So, got our principal players doing the DP.
07:35And then we have, like, a chorus, sort of.
07:36We call them sextras.
07:38People who are booked to do, I think they were booked for oral, BDSM, just, you know, not a full rate of you have to do this, you have to do this.
07:45But some leeway as our supporting cast.
07:48And then we had supporting cast as, like, extras who were going to appear in, like, fetish wear or nudity.
07:54And then we had invited guests who were literally no obligation, just there to watch.
07:58And we had, you know, testing all above board.
08:01I did a 30-person consent talk.
08:03And it was crazy, but it was beautiful.
08:06It's like a TED talk.
08:07Yeah, totally.
08:08It was a definite, like, fugue state.
08:10I don't know how that happened.
08:11Talk about large-scale stunt.
08:13Yeah, 100%.
08:14You think a gangbang consent talk is a lot?
08:16Wait until you're doing a group consent talk.
08:18Yeah.
08:19It's cool, though.
08:20Who handled the paperwork?
08:21Pup.
08:22Pup.
08:22Modest pup.
08:23Pup.
08:23Yeah, they got nominated for an award for set decoration.
08:28Art Direction for Birth.
08:29Oh, cool.
08:29Our production manager, Modest Pup's first ex-business, any award nomination.
08:34So very proud of them.
08:35But, yeah, they held it down.
08:37They hold it down for us, always.
08:39It's funny, because as a producer, whenever I hear about, like, a big gangbang or a big, like, sexy scene, all I think is, like, paperwork.
08:45Yeah.
08:46Paperwork.
08:47Paperwork.
08:48All the tests you have to check.
08:50Uh-huh.
08:50The parking.
08:51Uh-huh.
08:52Catering.
08:53God, how many bottles of water do you have to bring?
08:55Like, those are the things that run through my head.
08:58Totally.
08:58And I think it really speaks to, like, we're, you know, it takes a lot of labor to pull off these magical, amazing things that most people just want to, like, come to and enjoy.
09:09We have been in plenty of situations where we've gotten to go and enjoy places, so it's an honor to, like, put in the work.
09:15Like, at one point, we were, you know, talking about doing the next one, and Pup was like, well, are you guys going in?
09:19And we're like, no, no, no, no.
09:20We're here to make this happen for y'all.
09:23Like, we, it's so important.
09:25It's important work, and we want it to happen, but it does take a lot.
09:29It takes a village.
09:30We know we're already in pre-production for our next one in January, and, yeah, it takes a lot, but it's worth it.
09:37Yeah, I'm very excited.
09:38One of the things that somebody had commented about it that is, I found interesting, is it's a pretty good representation of in-pox fetish, right?
09:47It's a sober event.
09:49Right.
09:49But the, like, the darkness and the disorientation you feel and the, like, overwhelming you feel is very much, like, feels like you're intoxicated at a party watching it all.
10:00It's just so much.
10:01It's like sex drunk.
10:02Right.
10:02Exactly.
10:03Exactly.
10:04It looks like it's seedy and scary, but it's actually incredibly safe and above board.
10:08Yeah, yeah.
10:08But we still capture that, like, hmm.
10:10Yeah.
