Personally, I'm self taught, started out editing music videos on public access. They have to allocate time slots in their edit suites, if you can call them that, for the public for non commercial projects to be aired on public access T.V.. My friend, Chip Ram, and I were doing a social protest video called, Third World America, about how America is becoming a third world country and we were almost finished with the video when Chip accidentally erased a 5 second piece of the sound right in the middle of the piece. I fuckin freaked! How are we going to fix it! Chip calmly explained to me that there was a thing called time code, and proceeded to put the sound precisely where it was to begin with. Well the light bulb over my head went off like a 20k. I knew at that very moment what I was going to do with the rest of my life. I worked and shot and lit on projects for basically free for about a year and a half or two until I became proficient enough to get gigs at places like Neotec while doing editing on the side. This came to that and here I am. Only took me 35 years to figure out what I wanted to do in life, pretty pathetic but at least I know now. That's my story and there are thousands of others with various twists and turns to get on this road. The main thing is to be dedicated to learning the craft, because it is a craft not a profession, and bust your nuts for little money or none at all to get started. Desire is the motivating factor here.
To get more specific to you inquiry there are many special courses that apply to different programs and formats depending on your preference. I just took three courses at UCLA extension Final Cut 101, Final Cut Advanced and After Effects. Most colleges have film or video or broadcast classes that can offer a beginner theory, the where's, when and whys that are all important to this medium and there are increasingly more outside courses being offered from Moviola, Dr Raw Stock and various others. These are very informative and are good networking situations too.
As long as we're totally off topic -Oh, I think he noticed, Renee. Those commercials actually targeted women, and Duracell sales dropped off dramatically.
Warm and fuzzy, my ass - that Bunny was a stroke of freakin genius.
I think you answered your own question,"ugly women".
Sorry, Dumbblonde, I worked on the mad scientist lair where the mad scientist was going to kill the Energizer bunny with a laser ray cannon, when he gets him in his sights he fires and because he didn't use the right batteries the laser failed and the effort was thwarted. I got to work with Frank Ozz, of the Muppets fame, and the director of photography was Alan Davia who helmed among others The Color Purple, E.T.. There were three spots for this particular campaign One was the mad scientist and in the stage next door they had the Empire State building where King Kong climbs it and another one I can't recall. We did the blinking lights and technical looking equipment around the mad scientists targeting screen.

Cal, you're the second man on this board who said he isn't certain if I'm a man or a woman. Renee is a woman's name; it's 'Rene' that is a man's name. I am very much female, I would think that people would know that just from the tone of my posts.
Though, I have to admit, I originally thought that Shameless was a Russian call girl, because he is always talking about Slavic women being a national treasure, etc.
cal, can you verify if mandingo, lex/ jake steed are gonna be in the gb?? what about vince voyour and mark davies and mickey g??? I HOPE SHE LICKS ASS IN THIS ONE.. have em lined up in a long line. will there also be ass cream pies?? hey dude.. why the heck dident jasmin st. clair ever work anabolic?? i'd like to also see jasmin st. clair in anabolic movies.
Ya know. I'm sure Lex and Vince hold much love in their hearts for the Anabolic G.B.'s. A little bird told me they were the first to come forward and volunteer to anchor the entire show. I'm really not privy to the where's when's and whys around here. I'm sure Adriana came up with a list that will make her performance a genuine treat for her. I can actually remember a time when all Vince cared about was, when is the next G.B.? I can't wait! Please hook one up so I can anchor to my hearts desire. yes Vince really loved doing the G.B.'s so I'm sure he'll be there for this one. Not!
is vince even able to work on an ababolic gb , since he's with red light? or was, or is??? right?? but that dion from red light is gonna be in it. i've never seen a red light gb. whats the difference between red light and anabolic gbs?? production values?? lighting??? maybe you know of a site that has clips??
Vince calls his own shots. He's positioned himself in the perfect situation. He's his own entity, he can shoot, work or do pretty much anything he wants. I have the utmost respect for Vince as a director, producer, balls to the walls take no prisoners, muttha fugger. Vince taught me a lot of things he was never aware of, just because of the no bullshit, kind of guy, he is. I think we have a better chance of being hit by a planet destroying asteroid than Vince in one of our G.B.'s. Vince was one of the best inside interference runners that's ever participated in the G.B. forum.
I can't give an opinion on Red Lights G.B., in a side by side, because I haven't seen theirs. That may seem neglectful on my part,,,, I'd rather make my contribution to our product without any outside interference cluttering my focus. If you watch other peoples stuff before you shoot yours it could, directly of indirectly, sway and color certain decisions, Conscience or sub conscience, I prefer to be a clean slate when I go into a uncontrolled train wreck in progress with unstructured structure. That's the most fulfilled satisfaction you could hope for the live make it work on the spure of the shit.
Cal444 Somewhere on the boardwalk sippin, stroking, typing ickin it loving the air. Ssmells like.............Home!
I seriously doubt Dion would be a performer in an Anabolic Gang Bang. That's makes absolutely no sense at all.
Where did you hear that, 'cos it sounds all wrong.
As for clips, if you go to the red light web site, which is www.redlightdistrictvideo.com, you can get an idea of what they're all about. It's been redesigned and fully updated, and is very useful -- and free, at least some of it.
It's the most user-friendly free adult studio site, in terms of free content that's available -- except for evolution erotica, which is totally amazing in terms of what it offers fans for nothing.
RLD has two Gang Bang movies. Anabolic is up to #35. I didn't care much for RLD's Gang Bang 2, and can't say I've seen an Anabolic Gang Bang that I liked since --- Christy Parks.
I'd say my favorite Anabolic GBs are #14, with Vanessa Chase and Rebecca Lord; the boxing ring one with Sabrina Johnson and Nikki Brantz; and the one with the Australian girl in the auto garage (pulled from the shelves because of Harley-Davidson's visible name in one of the scenes, or something like that).
I think my interest can be revived if the right talent is booked. Taylor Rain is such a talent. So is Ariana Jollee. I'd still like to see RLD's Gang Bang #1 because it stars Jessie J who I could never get enough of.
Overall, my fave GB-style scenes have been best captured by Rocco and/or Christoph Clark in their Euro productions. They seem to get all the sophisticated camera moves down, have ravishing girls, pretty good-lookng guys, and extreme nastiness. The worst thing about most gang bang movies is that they end up looking like a gay video with all the cocks and male asses on parade, and some postage stamp-sized view of a double-stuffed starlet's firmly plugged pleasure sockets mostly obscured by all the stud puppets milling about in a desperate effort to remain erect while contemplating the imminent plausibility of accidental/incidental butthole surfing atop their male colleagues while they maneuver for proper double ass or pussy penetration angles.
Not that there's anything wrong with that!
But, yeah, that -- that's what turns me off about gang bang movies. That, and the inevitability of Dave Hardman.
I gotta lay off the vodka! But thanks for the endorsement, Bob.
Also, I don't intend that statement as homophobic. I actually enjoy watching good-looking male talent going about their business. But not when the ratio is so skewed that you don't get to see the girl, or where it becomes an assembly line of preset positions. Then, if it was, in fact, a gay video, well, that would probably make it a lot more interesting!
All I can say is if you want to see two distinctly different styles of G.B.'s I'd recommend the G.B., featuring Shyla for the man eating qualities of Shyla with a two camera approach. Then I'd recommend Tournaunt, (tournament of sex), a one camera approach shot by Mike John. The difference is night and day. I'm not going say one is superior to the other just different, judge for yourself.
Com-on you've got to give Shyla her due that girl put on a spectactular show. There are few if any girls in the industry or for that matter out of the industry that can throw a G.B. scene to rival that one. I'm sure Ariana is going to set the next bar by which all G.B.'s will judged in the future.
oh yea, i forgot to mention that gbg 34. loved it!!!!! i liked it when she held 15 loads at once in her mouth!!! hey, can women get pregnant from swallowing cum threw their mouth?? i hope arian does that in gbg 35.. if she does, lemme know cal.
Did you notice the beautiful,retch and recover,she did in the middle of the pop sequence? I thought she was going to loose the entire glob of super goo she had accumulated after about 8 loads. EEEEEEuuuuuuu!!!! What a champ. The other thing I loved about that one was the fact she still was 100% natural.
I'm sure Christopher and Ariana have many suprises in store for us. The shoot is coming up soon and we're looking for a November release, good chance for simultanious.
i suppose i should be the first one to say that today was the lucky day...
I ended up with 23 boys and i have to say they all did a fantastic job, no wood problems at all !!!! That in itself is practically historic.
Anyway, this was an absolute dream come true for me, and I had way too much fun for one day.
We did it all... lots of hard pounding fucking, sucking, licking and sticking... lots of double stuff, some serious cum swallowing and a few cream pies thrown in for good measure.... we went absolutely NUTS !!!!!
I must say that this was the best birthday present EVER !!
Woo Hoo!!! I am so glad it went well for you Ariana and book me down for the first copy!!!! And a big happy 21st Bday to my favorite girl working today!!!
I know it's a little early to ask, but when will it come out on DVD? Will it be out by the end of the year? (I have no idea how long it takes to get from shooting to release, sorry.)
Way to go girl! and way to go Cal and the Anabolic team for making this happen. Can't wait for the dvd to come out.
Cal, can you please make it happen that there are lots and lots of dvd extras (interviews before and after if any, bloopers, photo gallery, etc.) and I'll make sure to frame this dvd and hang it on my wall! lol
Been a GB fan of Anabolic since #1.

was Ariannas birthday the 6th? If so I'm a day older...
HI there, I just wanted to say that it's soo refreshing having Ariana post on here and I love reading her comments. She has the greatest approach towards movies and oopinions. I haven't actually seen her in action yet (movies are a little hard to come by where I live) but have seen a few clips and I'm stunned by her performance, looks and actualy enjoyment of the work she's doing.. I know there are a few girls out there that actually do enjoy what they're doing but it's still great to see someone enjoy themselves this much.. not to mention her actually listening to her fans and prooducing scenes that they want to see her in..
Anyway... I just wanted to say... well done Ariana, you have a new fan here just from reading your posts.. Hope to see you in action one day.
Wraith "One day hopful owner of Sodomy sandwich and BG #35."
Well when you have 21 male, as opposed to 1 set of female feet it just becomes a matter of ecstatics. Ramsey, I totally understand the lure of the sexy female foot and I'm with you. I put in every sexy foot shot I get. I can't materialize them out of thin air though. I've mentioned this to all our directors, that's all I can do. Hopefully they'll understand too.
Ramsey, I hear you on the foot topic... Ariana has a set of the sexiest feet in the business and the more we see them the happier I'll be :-) I'm so glad that we're finally being listened to and having our little wishes included. I'm soo looking forward to this title and seeing Arianas sexy little feet even more now.. Oh... that's not to take anything away from Selenas foot job in Sodomy Sandwiches as I'm drooling for that too..
I still have to watch that movie, I already bought it but haven't seen it yet. I can't wait for a release date for this movie though. Ariana is the real deal.
Damn you've seen this already? *HUGE SULK* I doubt we'll see it here for ages yet :( We're always way behind here.. :-( Not fair at all... *Goes back to waiting patiently and searching more any pics of Adrianas feet*
