Bree Mills is the head of Gamma Films and is an XBIZ & AVN Winning Writer, Producer, and Director. She is the creator of Girlsway, an award winning G/G site. She also oversees sister G/G site All Girl Massage. She also recently created the B/G site Pretty Dirty. She has done all this together with her partner in crime; award winning photographer and director Stills By Alan. Bree has always been willing to communicate with fans and greatly values feedback, which is reflected in the thriving community on Girlsway. You can find her often popping in on the official Girlsway thread in the porn pool to answer questions, despite her busy schedule. Per her suggestion, I've created this thread for anyone interested to ask Bree questions directly. She has always been very open and has tough skin, so ask away! Follow Bree at @TheBreeMills I guess I'll get the ball rolling; 1. Congrats on your wins, how were the AVN's? 2. When can we expect the first official info on the next feature? 3. Are there any upcoming Model Debuts that you are particularly excited about?
^First, you did a great job with the description, Aya! You would make a great PR person for Bree! Hi Bree! 1. Have you ever wanted to perform/have sex in front of the camera or do you want to remain behind the camera? 2. Were you a fan of any porn performers before you started working in the porn industry?
Thanks for creating this Aya and for the awesome introduction! 1. The AVNs and AEE fan expo this year were amazing. I was hoping to take home the main all-girl categories and we were successful. Missing was such a big project for us and it was really humbling to see it aptly rewarded. The expo itself was also a blast .. we had 5 Girlsway girls, including India Summer who made a rare appearance to sign for us. GOTY Jelena Jensen also dropped by for a surprise signing shift! We sold a ton of DVD titles and t-shirts ... actually the t-shirts were so popular that I think we'll open up a store on the website to sell them year round. 2. I'm beginning pre-production on the next feature now. I'm scaling back this year to focus on only two very big projects, while Alan continues to up his game with his mini-series. The only thing I'll leak for now is that it's going to be a full length feature film :) 3. I'm really excited for Aiden Ashley's debut ... in Shyla's dream pairing scene! http://www.girlsway.com/en/video//Dream-Pairings-Shyla--Aiden-Scene-01/121616
Hi matchmaker 1. I get asked this question a lot lol! No, I don't think I'll ever be a performer ... after watching everything that goes in to actually shooting good sex on camera, I would be pretty terrible at it! It's way more complicated than it seems. I think I'll stay behind the camera, except for my Hitchcock cameos. 2. I was less of a fan of specific performers and more of a fan of certain scenario types or situations. In fact, one of the main reasons I wanted to start Girlsway was because I could never find enough of the scenes I was searching for.
Hi Bree! I'm so glad that Girlsway won so many AVN awards. Just a few quick questions for now :) 1) Are you able to talk about any of the forum improvements that we got a notification about in our members inbox recently? 2) Not counting the award wins, what are you proudest of that Girlsway achieved in 2016 and why? 3) Alternatively, if you could do something over in 2016, what would it be and why? 4) This may be a better question for Alan, but I'll ask it anyway! ^^ I think we can all agree that there's a bit of a backlog on models either making their GW debuts (I know you've said Kira Noir is someone you really like, and personally Mona Wales is on my list of "I can't believe it hasn't happened yet), make their returns to the site (Ariana Marie and Jillian Janson spring to mind) along with maintaining the hot streaks of models that have frequented GW lately (Angela White, Serena Blair, Bree Daniels, etc.). With the rapid growth and success of Girlsway, has there been any talk of expanding production at all to allow for more scenes, and thus more models? 5) Similarly, in doing the casting thread each month, I've noticed a large spike in popularity in models outside of LA (Tracy Lindsay and Dido Angel being in the top 15 most requested models for 2016 if all votes are tallied up). Do we have any hope of a test-run for perhaps special shoots to accommodate this spike in member requests for these models as we've seen in the past?
Hi Bree: 1. I continue to be interested in Pretty Dirty. I haven't taken out a membership yet due to the download fee. On the ADT Pretty Dirty thread, there was discussion that the membership price will now include unlimited downloads. Please confirm that the price now includes unlimited streaming and downloading. The website join page continues to only say unlimited streaming. 2. Will the Pretty Dirty release schedule stay at one scene per week or are there plans to have more releases per week? 3. Any chance of Jacky St James branching out from Sweet Sinner and do some directing for you at Girlsway and Pretty Dirty?
Hi Bree! I'll be honest, I prefer when things are consolidated in big threads but I guess this isn't really a bad idea. I was kinda wondering lately if you were planning on releasing scenes in 4k and 60 fps at some point in the future? I guess it's not really important but I'm just the kind of person who likes to have everything at the highest possible quality. ^^ & ^ Yes please! That would be amazing! Obviously Girlsway should remain somewhat stylistically unified but it would be awesome if every once in a while a guest director would direct a mini-series. Even better if it wouldn't disturb the current schedule. Although, unless Bree has something to say about this, it's just a pipe dream.
Thanks Aya for putting this together and Bree for taking time for questions. First off, a shout out to all your team at girlsway for all their work. I LOVE watching gg porn but it is hard to find good dedicated sites these days. I have been a member for a few months and have to say it has been well worth signing up. My questions are mainly centred around the fan interactions and fantasy submissions on the forum of which I have really enjoyed being a part of. 1) What sort of things do you look for (or try to avoid) when selecting member fantasy submissions to include in the monthly production run? 2) How many fantasy submissions do you usually select for a given month? Is there a certain quota for each site (wy, mg, gwo) or is it more based on if you find you like a particular one it gets considered for filming? 3) If I have a fantasy submission or a pairing request post that is a month or two old does it still have a shot at coming true or do you tend to decidd whether or not to pick them up while they are still fresh on the thread? Thanks again :) Am looking forward to what is in store for gw members for 2017!
Interesting to hear that the features will be scaled back to just 2 this year. But the fact that they will be actual full-length films is even more intriguing. Can't wait to see what they look like. And getting some Foreign performers on Girlsway would be cool. That could be a vignette series itself. 1. Are there any girl pairings of the women you've worked with that you would personally love to see, or have you already done them all? 2. Are there any ladies "Graduating" soon from All Girl Massage to Girlsway? 3. With the recent restructuring of Pretty Dirty, will there be any more G/G scenes there? Is there currently enough for a Pretty Dirty G/G DVD? 4. How does the Feeldoe compare to a traditional Strap-On? 5. "The Art of Lesbian Anal" is an upcoming scene, but it doesn't say Part 1. Does this mean it's not a new vignette series? That would be too bad.
Hey, Bree. Have you or Alan tought about shooting with Deauxma? I don't know if you have seen her work, but I think she is just perfect for both mommy/squirt themes for GirlsWay. She squirts frequently during her scenes, she is a hot MILF with a stunning body and she REALLY enjoys shooting with girls. Please, think about it! I think it would worth working with such a talented woman! Edited by - Brazilion on 1/30/2017 7:42:17 PM
Hi Eva - thanks, as always, for your questions! 1) After getting feedback from members about the forum, I tallied up a list of must-have + nice-to-have improvements and submitted them to our web team. I have a meeting with them tomorrow to go over various potential solutions for a new forum template that will cater more to our needs as a group. Once I have the proper 411 and a timeline, I'll update you all! 2) I think I am the most proud of the community we have built - fans, models, and Girlsway crew alike. Everyone is so passionate and involved with the brand that it really is being carried on the shoulders of many. As the one who originally started this crazy ride, you can't believe how satisfying it is to see it mean so much to so many people ... brings tears to my eyes. 3) I've been lobbying very hard to get the forum upgraded and it has been a bit of an uphill battle, since our parent company juggles so many different projects and priorities. I wish I could have formalized / streamlined some of the amazing ideas that stemmed from the forum sooner to help ease communication. You all made amazing due ... but I wish I could have shown more support in terms of development. I have many other smaller, more micro things I would do over but this is probably the biggest. 4) I am adding one more update per week (to take us to an all-girl network with 5 weekly updates) starting in June 2017!! That should mean more models :) 5) In terms of arranging shoots in other states where these models live? Likely not, because of all the legal challenges with shooting production that happen right now. But, we've certainly reached out to models like this to see if they will ever come into LA and to try and offer them scene packages as incentives to get them in. The reality is that we shoot approx 20-24 scenes per month for GW and cast approx. 30-40 models to fulfill those scenes so we literally have too many model requests for spots ... the waiting lists get very long!
Hi Cubbie .... Yes, we removed the paid downloads in December so the price includes unlimited streaming and downloading. I'll let the web team know to correct the join page. Thanks for catching that. Right now, I have PD at one update per week while we go in and relaunch the line to be darker/edgier/more in line with my vision. We should see updates go to a couple a week soon! I'm a huge fan of Jacky and would love to collaborate with her in the future - although there are no formal plans at this point.
The migration towards offering 4K is one of my big projects in 2017 ... although you won't likely see it on the site for another 6 months at least. Creative collaborations will be an opportunity for Alan and I to work with some others to offer some different twists on our classic Girlsway formula. But I won't just be hiring guest directors on their own at this point - our creative team will remain involved with them in some capacity.
Thanks so much for writing me Whirlbuddy and I'm so happy to hear that you've enjoyed your membership so far! Here are your answers: 1. I'm actually going to post a thread that addresses just this question and gives you all more direction on the "ideal" way to submit an idea. Basically, I look for something that is easy for me to read and quickly get a summary of vs. an extremely long scenario that includes a ton of specific dialogue. I like ideas on key lines or verbiage to include but when members put complete scripts it usually causes me to skip over because it can be very hard to read due to the formatting issues of the forum. Less is more when selling an idea for me. I similarly have issues with submissions that are full of grammar and spelling issues or are very difficult to read. But, I need to lead by example and give you guys a better idea on the structure I like. It's part of my plan to formalize the whole member submission process! 2. Right now, about 50% of my monthly production is sourced from member ideas! Alan and I usually ear mark about 5-6 days a month for our own series and ideas and I try to fill as many remaining slots as possible with member fantasies! 3. Not necessarily - I often go multiple pages deep when looking through member submissions!
With the mini-series in many ways taking the torch from the feature series and now releasing one per month in their entirety, I wanted to use the opportunity to evolve the feature concept into some different. I'll keep everyone posted as we move into pre-production. 1. The beauty of my position is that, usually if there are any pairings I really reallt want to see, I have the ability to get them together. But, casting includes so many variables that it often isn't just about what I want. But, I've been able to see a lot of pairing requests come to life and I am sure there will be many more in the future. I'd love to have Nina Hartley on the site in 2017 and have her paired up with Cassidy Klein, who has always wanted to work with her. When there is a real off-camera interest and connection, that's usually the type of pairing I try to get behind!! 2. None that I'm aware of now but Alan mostly manages that aspect of casting for us! I trust his instincts completely on when a girl is ready to graduate. That being said, getting Gia Paige on the site is on my list. 3. Probably not many GG for the near future on Pretty Dirty ... but I will continue to shoot them periodically. I don't think we have enough for a DVD yet. 4. It's not even comparable ... with a strapon, you can use it to bring pleasure to someone else but it is definitely an inanimate object. With a feeldoe, you feel so much yourself when you're using it that it is a way more pleasurable and intimate experience for both partners. BUT ... the feeldoe does require some skillz to keep it in! 5. The upcoming ART OF LESBIAN ANAL scene is a vignette. There was an error with the thumb and it is going to be replaced with the proper branded thumb so you guys can clearly denote that it's a vignette. We did take the conscious decision to add sub-titles to the scenes, however, to add a bit more context than just part 1, part 2, etc..
Welcome back so soon Bree. Thanks for answering my questions, this thread was a great idea. It does seem like a given that Nina Hartley should be on Girlsway. And I guess the feeldoe should be reserved for only the most skilled wielders. And not to be a nitpicker, but Shyla's dream pairing is missing the logo. Some more questions when you have the time; 1. I see that there are a few ladies on Pretty Dirty who have not yet been on Girlsway. If they do well there, can they "jump the line" so to speak and appear on Girlsway? I personally got excited and hopeful seeing that Jill Kassidy popped up over there. 2. Nice to see Chanell Heart make her long awaited return to Girlsway. Are there any other black ladies coming up on the site anytime soon? 3. How did you feel about the Girlsway booth at AVN? Would you make any improvements for next time? 4. Any plans to go to The Dinah this year? Or at least use it for a story line? 5. I was wondering, if a girl has flaked on a shoot(s) before, but the members really want to see her on the site, what takes precedence? And for those interested, Bree did a great interview recently with Fleshbot here
I asked her yesterday (via Twitter). She's currently shooting only for her website but she still can shoot for other companies if she gets an offer she can't refuse. I don't know how much she asks for it (and if it would be ok in your budget), but I truly hope this could happen because she is an amazing performer and in my opinion it would be epic for all MILF and squirt fans of Girlsway! I'm really hopeful about it. 🙏🙏🙏 Here's a printscreen! Thank you, Bree! You're awesome!
1. It's not a given but building a relationship with a model through any of our studios is a good first step! Voting for her on the member forums is another essential one. I have Jill Cassidy on my radar ;) 2. I don't think about their race when I cast performers, so I'm sure there will be. 3. We sold out of some of our t-shirts, which was awesome to see so many people wearing them at the expo! I have lots of ideas for how to improve next year! 4. I would love to but sadly I won't be available ... next year!!! 5. Every one is a case-by-case basis for us. We never say never but we also tend to not like to reward bad behavior. Thanks!
Hi Bree! Have you or would you ever date and/or have sex with any female porn performers or do you prefer to keep your business side and personal side separate?
Hi Bree, I was wondering if you have anything special planned for Valentine's Day? Girlsway specifically, Lesbian Valentines? Edited by - Aya on 2/6/2017 3:21:48 PM
Hey Bree... Do you have any plans to work with the insanely sexy Riley Nixon in the near future? I believe she needs to be in wayyyy more girl on girl stuff. Also and I'm sure that you hear this all of the time but Girlsway rocks. I'm lovin' the originality and creativity. There's nothing else like it on the interwebs.
Hi Bree, hope all is well. I was wondering; 1. Why do you think so many models don't take advantage of their free Girlsway accounts? 2. Any plans to expand the sections on the site to accommodate the new additions like mini-series, vignettes, dream pairings, etc.? 3. If you had your way, what woman would bring out of retirement for a scene on Girlsway?
Off topic, but Happy (early) Valentine's Day to Bree and Sara. Here's a cute article about them. And I guess it technically answers some questions; Bree x Sara
Hi Bree, had a couple more questions for the next time you pop by. 1. What was the 1st Official Girlsway Video on the site? With the whole Webyoung merger, the lines get kind of blurred. 2. What's the status on The Model Fantasies, Have any of the ladies taken you guys up on the offer yet? 3. In the DVD department, are there any plans to do ones with Dream Pairings when there are enough available? How about the best scenes of a Girl of The Month? Could the Pretty Dirty G/G scenes be put on as bonus scenes on future DVD's?
1. You could consider the first ever "Girlswayesque" scene to be WY's My Favorite Sisters because it was the first time I wrote a scenario for that website and, also, the first one to pay more attention to dialogue and storytelling. http://www.webyoung.com/en/video/My-Favorite-Sisters-Scene-01/63109 2. We are literally shooting the first OFFICIAL MODEL FANTASY scene this month :) You will see it appear with a special tag this spring. And, like any fantasy submission, I'll continue to produce good ones as they come in. 3. Yes, we plan to release the DP scenes (especially now that we've expanded them) as a sort of quasi-showcase for the girls. Should start to see those soon.
^Great to know. Hopefully once the 1st Model Fantasy drops, it'll encourage more down the line like with Real Girlfriends. Thanks for the replies! Edited by - Aya on 3/15/2017 3:32:01 PM
1. We are actually seeing a steady increase in models taking advantage of their verified model accounts, especially as we put more stake into casting decisions within our forums and with more active, engaging girls. I expect it to keep growing as our brand grows! 2. We just kicked off a mini-series section and will at least properly categories series like vignettes and dream pairings. The main challenge will be to keep the site simple and clean looking, with all of these different initiatives. 3. Siri for sure!
^Thanks Bree, I thought you missed those ones:) This may be the last year where girls underestimate the value of interacting with members on Girlsway. I see a lot of women rallying their fanbases on Twitter to get them into the Girlsway world, because they recognize how valuable being part of the family is. The flakers and the ones who think they can treat GW like a typical G/G company where you just pop in and out are going to be kicking themselves soon. I noticed the Mini-Series section and was stoked to see it there. Can't wait until it's up to date. And I agree, wouldn't want to compromise the design of the site with too much clutter, but I'm sure you guys will figure out a way to easily identify the special scenes. Oh, and I saw on the Pretty Dirty thread that you are going full-steam ahead with the new initiatives. I probably shouldn't be worried, but I can't help but ask for reassurance that Girlsway won't become significantly neglected.
Hi Bree. I was wondering, I know you said you don't like to reward bad behavior, and it's not surprising that certain ladies haven't been asked back to Girlsway. But would you ever make an exception if one of these women was chosen as a Girl of The Month's Dream Pairing?
Hi Bree! Since Sara Luvv is your girl, just wondering what it's like filming her in scenes with other girls (if you like seeing it or if you're indifferent towards it)?
Don't worry about Girlsway being neglected at all ... Alan is really stepping up and manning the ship, with support from me of course, but he is doing a fantastic job as the GW team lead this year! I am focusing more of my direct energy on PrettyDirty.com and am extremely excited for what's to come!
Hi Matchmaker! I've directed Sara in a few projects and it was always a ton of fun to work together ... she is a great actress and I really enjoy directing her. I am very focused on set and care way more about the characters and the story than the fact it's my girlfriend in the scene. So, I'm not in the corner perving out or being indifferent ... I'm there being her director.
Hi Bree, I am a big fan of Jelena Jensen, your G.O.T.Y. 2016. She is one of the ressons why I am a Girlsway.com member. What can we expect from her upcoming scenes? I heard she recently shot with Àngela White. Big pair! ishe recently announced in an interview we should expect some really hot scenes for Girlsway's in the upcoming months, including something she has never done before! Is the one with Angela one of these? Thanks and keep dòing amazing films for Girlsway.com. They are the best in the industry.
Hey Bree! I was wondering, what's Girlsway's or Gamma's official stance on people making gifs/WebMs and posting them to Reddit, Twitter and other social media sites?
Hi Bree. Was wondering if there are any girls currently in a contract that you would love to get your hands on? Also, what would you say is a rough percentage/month in terms of casting when it comes to performers. That is among member requests, trying out newbies, using proven "Girlsway Girls," and casting women that you and Alan are personally into.
