VIVID STUDIO INSIDER FOR MARCH 20, 2009

"BOUNCE" REBOUNDS -- "Bounce," the Vivid title released on January 21st, has taken on a life of its own and a rebound is already on the way. Says director B. Skow: "The movie has very little plot and no particular message, but what it does have is the fabulous platinum haired, blue-eyed Vivid Girl Hanna Hilton with her double DD natural breasts along with other hot natural girls jumping on trampolines and having a great time. The camera loves every inch of Hanna and I knew that viewers would too. There's something so positively all-American about her, so we couldn't resist creating a 'Bounce 2' which, along with Hanna, will also feature Gianna Michaels, Sara Stone and Ami Jordan." Nicole Murillo, Vivid's co-sales director says she is getting enthusiastic reports from the field about the original Bounce. "I can't keep this title on my shelf! Hanna is gorgeous and her boobs are perfect," says Matt from D?j? Vu's Adult Emporium Las Vegas. "We love how B. Skow shoots each girl naked, jumping around with their boobs bouncing in the air before they get pounded," says Maurice from 20/20 Video in L.A.

XCRITIC PICKS "FAITHLESS" - XCritic.com reviewer Apache Warrior has given the hot new Vivid-Celeb feature "Faithless" a five-star review and made it an XCritic.com Pick. The much-publicized title directed by Paul Thomas and starring former Miss USA Kelli McCarty loved not only the content but the "gem" of the nearly half hour of "must-see behind the scenes footage" that give "a more personal insight" into Kelli and co-star Kelly Leigh. After going into a detailed resume of her career (beauty pageant winner, NBC soap star and movie actress) Apache Warrior concludes, "She is the most experienced thespian to ever enter the adult biz and that is a major plus. Her inclusion should attract droves of new adult movie viewers...There is no doubt that Kelli McCarty will have her critics, but, this influential one says that she has a winner on her hands. Under the directorial guidance by the masterful Paul Thomas, Kelli has hit the adult industry with a lightning force. The screenplay gives Ms. McCarty several opportunities to show off her very talented acting skills to amazing use. Her effortless acting range is unbeatable and convincing. She deserves several AVN nominations as well as one for Paul Thomas and the screenwriter. 2009 will be the year of Kelli McCarty. I and many of your old and new fans have faith in you Kelli."

VIVID AT SXSW IN AUSTIN - Vivid co-chairman Steven Hirsch and Vivid Girls Hanna Hilton and Meggan Mallone appeared during the week at the prestigious South by Southwest (SXSW) music/film/media conference in Austin. They participated in a panel discussion moderated by Dallas Observer editor Robert Wilonsky. Steven took the audience through the impact adult has had on acceptance of new technology by consumers - from the VCR through the DVD and more recently VOD and mobile. Writer John P. Meyer reported in Pegasus news that the conference attracted an ever-larger audience of SXSW attendees who were drawn in by images of Meggan and Hanna that flashed on a video feed in the hallway. Meyer reported that "Both Meggan and Hanna expressed their interest in obtaining mainstream film roles, which they said was one of the reasons they got into the adult film business to begin with? One audience questioner wanted to know if either of the young women felt they were treated differently when people found out what they did for a living. "Yeah, we're treated better," said Meggan - while Hanna pointed out that she encountered some nasty reactions when she started nude modeling, but not so much since she went hardcore."
