What be your ideas to make Digital better here are mine.
1.New stars
They lost Bibi Jones and Jenna Haze retired as well i am not sure if they got a younger star who could breakout and join the Riley,Jesse,Kayden 3some in terms of top stars.I have no idea if they are other women at other companies they could sign.But the one woman they should get is
Esperanza Gomez.I know i go on about her a lot but this woman be perfect and overnight she become one of the top stars in porn.She has the acting ablity her scenes are breathtaking.And she is bloody gorgeous
I add Raylene as the MILF i love to see in Digital as well.
2.GG Scenes
One thing that annoys me is DP has the sexiest crew of woman but sadly we don't see any gg scenes apart from the big orgys which are great. but needs to be more gg scenes when was the last time Jesse Jane done a gg scene with one woman i can't think of it.Also they miss a beat when they did Mothers and daughters there should of been MILFS with daughters scenes instead of mums being with guys they should of been getting on with there best friends daughters too.
Any thoughts on my ideas and what you guys ideas as well.

DP was acquired by Manwin earlier this year. Manwin is the infamous owner of several tubes sites and Brazzers. They are probably acquiring porn companies to
supply content for their tubes sites legally. Perhaps scared of what recently
happened with Megaupload earlier this year.
http://business.avn.com/articles/video/Manwin-Acquires-Digital-Playground-460743.html
And they let go of some people over there. May possibly get rid of some contract
stars.
http://business.avn.com/articles/video/UPDATED-Manwin-Makes-Changes-at-Digital-Playground-468224.html
Personally I would push some of their used up stars like Jesse Jane to do IR
scenes or cut them loose and bring in some new ones. I don't watch a lot of their stuff because its basically the same ole girls fucking the same ole guys.

^That may be Manwin's plan but if it is then it's not a smart one. Tube sites generate profit but it's in a weird convoluted way rather than a direct one. If I visit a tube site to watch a video then I'm probably accessing illegal content that was stolen from a site/dvd or it's content that belong to the tube site's owner. regardless of the origin of the video. I didn't pay for the video so no one is getting money from me. Manwin bought DP for 6 million dollars which gives them access to all their library but it also makes them responsible for all their expenses. These are expenses above the 6 millions they have already paid. DP is still a dvd only company so having their content on tube sites and torrent sites hurts them a lot more than a comapny that is mostly all internet based because DP loses more money by not selling their dvd's.
I'd also like to add that you can't push a contract star to do anything that isn't in her contract so good luck with getting any of them to do more than what they signed for.
Good luck in trying to push them out. Their lawyers would just love to see that happen.

I think there are two essential parts for making good porn.
One part is the women. The women need to be sexy and attractive. And you need a good number of women too, so that you don't end up watching the same women again and again.
And the second part is the stud. The stud must be hard enough and fast enough with his dick to take full advantage of the pretty lady and really debauch her in every way. Because when the stud doesn't push the limits of his pretty lady, then she ends up acting and pretending that she likes her sex with him. Which looks bad to the viewer. It's up to the stud to make sure that his lady is getting fucked so hard that she doesn't need to act and pretend with him. He is the one who makes his lady's reactions real and genuine.
If the stud isn't good, then the lady inevitably ends up acting and pretending with him. She has no choice but to act and pretend in such a situation. Because if she doesn't act and pretend, then the scene would totally fall apart and not work at all.

-More G/G scenes, a lot more G/G scenes. When you have girls like Kayden, Stoya and Jesse Jane why not let them enjoy each other once in a while?
-A lot less focus on the guys. I can't remember the last time I saw a DP movie without it having an endless amount of focus on and close ups of the guys.
-Find someone who actually knows you can zoom out with a camera.

Good question. Pirates 3 would put them back on the map.
They seem to be content to just release their weekly high-value features and to improve those, I would simply toss in more group sex, more dirty talk, and less zooming in on the sex.
Focus on the guys? I see that in trailers but it doesn't follow in the movies.

Definitely Pirates 3 and a few other big budget features would get them back on track. A gang bang series for their contract girls would also go down well.

I very rarely find myself watching DP stuff because most of their releases have this disgusting gray - brown tone in their movies just like their covers show. Movie quality in my eyes is very very bad (I'm not talking about Pirates, I'm mostly talking about the recently released ones) Even Wicked Pictures got better quality on now !
I prefer to watch Nacho Vidal's fuck from Jules Jordan, not from DP because of the quality like i've said. They should change this imo.

Maybe one of you guys can explain exactly how making Pirates 3 would put DP any more on the map then they already are? It's not like we don't know who they are or what they do. Now I don't know if you meant making a movie that will be a huge money maker but if that's the case then I hope they don't. The reason why I say that is that if the budget for Pirates II was 8 million dollars then how exactly could they make a profit on a sequel even if they only use half the budget they used for Pirates II? How can you hope to recuperate that kind of money when studios are having trouble breaking even on a movie that cost less than 15,000$?

The same way they make money paying big bucks for "celebrity sex tapes" and what not; people buy them in enough quantity to turn a profit.
That said, I don't see a "Pirates III" shaking things up, fans clamoring for it or making enough money for anybody for them to bother with it.

Pirates I cost $1 million to produce if you believe the hype.
Both Pirates I and II were released before the recession kicked in around 2008.
Spending that kind of money again for Pirates III during a down economy probably
would not be a smart idea. Especially when you consider the average porn release
probably cost about $20,000 to produce.

I think those days are over. No studio today will make a profit if they pay 4 millions to make a movie or buy a sex tape or if they turn a profit then it will take them years before they see it.

I don't know if DIGITAL PLAYGROUND needs improving. Aren't they one of the top porn companies in the porn biz? They have a place in porn and a sizable audience that apparently likes what they do. I'm not really a features kinda guy but of the studios that do features I prefer theirs. They don't do the wilder porn stuff but that's not the type of porn they want to or need to make. They usually have a very strong group of core performers. They always bring in great girls to co-star in their movies. The technical aspects of their movies seem pretty high. For the type of movies they do I think they do a pretty good job of making movies.
I think the only time they were making a mistake is when they were doing all those slo-mo artsy fartsy elevator music movies. I think it's okay to do one of those every now and then but they were making too many. For awhile there it seems like every Jesse Jane movie was like that. And I'm still pissed that they ruined that Janine IR movie doing in that way. I'm very happy they don't do those anymore.
That said...I don't really think I'm really part of the audience DP makes movies for. I'm a fan of Jesse Jane and sometimes some of the other girls who star or co-star in their movies but I'm not really a big fan of features. Though I must say that DP features are easier to get through because they keep them simple and keep them moving. Their plots set things up for the next sex scene and don't go on too long. I wish they'd use more/different male talent sometimes but it's not that big a deal.
Jesse Jane and Riley Steel seem to be their two main girls while others seem to come through stay awhile and move on. Most of the time their core stable of girls is pretty good. I don't think their main girls will do IR or anal so it's kind of a waste of time hoping for it. Not saying it wouldn't be nice but I don't think those things are important to DP. A black contract girl would probably be nice but I don't see that happening either.
I buy about 4 DP movies a year. It's always based on who's in them (I'm the same with Gonzo too). They're mostly okay. I know what to expect and that's about what I get.

Get rid of all their bleach-blonde, fake-titted stars... so I guess just keep Stoya and add some new natural talent.

^+1000 on fire the director who doesen't know there is a zoom out on the camera. He doesen't know how to shoot period. I like the DP girls, Jesse Jane makes me hard just by smiling and showing that delicious pussy of hers. But when her scenes have more close ups of her freakin' stomach than anything else it's just hard to get into the action, and this woman can fuck. Same with Stoya. I love Stoya and a good friend knows this and got me a copy of her new movie. I tried to watch it but it was just shot so badly. I watched it one time on fast forward through most of the movie and it's collected dust every since.
This is something else I've noticed about DP.When it comes to their male talent they love them some Manuel and Eric Everhard. I don't mind either guy but c'mon,mix it up people! Brazzers does the same thing, it's the Johnny Sins show over there now.
So, fire the director and hire someone who really knows how to shoot porn and mix up the male talent some,bring in some fresh faces who will change it up for the ladies.
I'm sorry if this came off as kind of a rant but I have a serious hard on for several of the DP girls and it's frustrating that I can't watch them do their thing because you can't actually see them doing their thing in any of their dvds.

Not to ruin your rant, but if you don't like any of their DVDs, which are by various directors, maybe the issue is that you don't like the type of porn that they shoot. If that is the case, instead of demanding they change their entire model to suit you and in the process probably loosing the fans they do have, you should probably look to other studios that shoot the type of porn that you do like.

Now that Fabian from Manwin owns DP they should use him as talent. I would pay to see him get it up the ass with Kayden's strap-on (preferably without lube) after all the illegal tube-site crap his company has done. Sort of like Manwin has done to every other studio in the country.

^You do realise the name of this thread is "How to improve Digital Playground" right? I simply stated what I felt they needed to do to be better. Do I think they'll listen? No. I don't buy their dvds because of the reasons I listed above so I'm not their target audience.
Also all you have to do is look here:
http://www.cduniverse.com/sresult.asp?HT_SEARCH=LABEL&HT_SEARCH_INFO=Digital+Playground&page=1&ShowSort=1&style=ice&SortOrder=Street
to see that Robby is the only director they have right now. I don't like the way he operates a camera, the girls are hot and the sex filmed could've been hot in the dvd I was given but it was shot like crap. So when asked how to improve the company in this thread I gave my opinion. Then went and watched a Sammie Spades scene for Brazzers where I could see the sex that was filmed.

Mix in more intimate gonzo type movies. I'm thinking like "tori black is pretty filthy" style where you get a movie about Jesse or Riley or Kayden where you actually get to hear them talk about the things they like the performers they like working with and then we get to see them with those performers.

^ Yeah, that would be great to see an all Jesse or whoever movie where they star in every scene. Or even a "Best Of" compilation of past and present performers done with a good interview about the scenes would be nice. They've got enough of a backlog of older scenes with some of the girls that they could do that. I'd love to see a compilation of Jesse Jane's early scenes with some commentary from her. They could also do compilations of girls who aren't at DP anymore minus the commentary. I would think compilations from DP would be big sellers.

1. Sign Brea Bennett. Team her with Kayden. Make anal and IR scenes with Brea
2. Sign Melanie and Valerie Rios(Let them do both GG and BG)
3. Sign Marlena Morgan and Tiffany Thompson(Let them do both GG and BG)
4. Sign Celeste Star- Convince her sweet ass to do BG
5. Use more "Black" performers-

It's cool to have suggestions, but maybe more realistic ones. I could be wrong but I don't think Brea Bennett, Melanie or Valerie Rios are active talent anymore.

^Home Wrecker 3 has been in the can for a bit...
I've made it known that while we are a couple company we do need to have more focus on the girls, especially in trailers. So while it might take awhile, one of the positives is that it has been heard.

Work on unique and sensational ideas which will come onto news.shooting hardcore clips what 1000's of other production studios can do is not going to sell.use technology to create movies,e.g shoot some scenes on green background screen and merge it in Sony Vegas.you can make any one small or look like monster size and can do many great things.cover growing economies where money is flowing and people have got money to spend.asia should be target.that is what Hollywood producers making double money ,they addresses localization.unique ideas with right execution,big bang publicity ,attractive posters plays important part in execution.dirty movie was one example on how it can be done.People will buy it from all over the world if idea is unique and execution us perfect.creating awareness,promotion and publicity is the key to success.do one big and control it from going onto shares,easy to control one big release from going onto shares.
Shoot with two camera angles,make one softcore version and other hardcore version.release softcore version of story based movie worldwide and sell hardcore on Internet.double the money with one shoot.
India and china are green field and growing economies.if you search google analytical results,you will see three cities of India in top 10 list searching for porn,supply has to be in the area of demand.people will not spend money easily but they can buy product like dirty movie at 60 USD price if it has something for them.in 60 usd many people can take 2-3 months membership of some website and may enjoy 100 hardcore porn clips but still they will prefer to buy one movie instead of 100 hardcore clips.
All this is business intelligence,right execution of unique ideas is what can get you money.
One big idea is bigger then big business and executing it correctly is more important.

I suppose the focus on the guys in DP movies is geared towards the female audience, but it's gotten to the point where it really is like watching the same movie over and over with Erik acting like a dumb idiot and Manuel being the level headed one lol...I do enjoy some of the sex scenes still(could use some work on the angles, too many closeups. full body shots please?).
However I did really like 'Time for change' the latest kayden kross movie.

^I agree with you but I think your suggestion is doomed because what you want requires that the available talent be able to meet those expectations. Although there are a good number of performers that have actual acting talent. The number is significantly lower than those that don't and even if there was a huge amount of good actors. You still need writers and directors to shoot those scene and I don't think they exist anymore.
If I judge what is currently being done in mainstream TV and cinema then you probably won't find them there either. That is unless you are into fake reality TV, fake talent shows, badly shot horror movies and crappy sequels. In that case you should have no problem getting people.

1) Use Stoya more
2) Get a new director that can film great scenes
3) New male talent..sick of seeing the same dudes all the time
4) Make the film clearer..someone mentioned some type of brown filter..it's annoying
5) Use Stoya more

^ It would seem it would be much easier for that poster if Stoya just left DP and worked somewhere else and let DP continue making the movies that despite the things he says somehow manages to be one of the top studios in porn.
In a somewhat related note....I've never gotten the whole Stoya thing. Is her appeal because she's supposedly so good looking or is she supposedly a great performer or both? I'm not saying she isn't any of those things but I personally don't get the appeal.

I think that Stoya has a look that is quite different from most porn girls and therefore you are going to have a bigger division between those that like her look vs those that don't. I love her alabaster white skin with her dark hair so I'm on the side of those that like her looks. Her sexual performances were quite good but I don't think that she's a significantly better performer than many other porn girls so it as always been her look that is the bigggest attraction for me.
I agree that it would be better for the above poster if Stoya left DP and went to work for other companies but I think that that boat as sailed already. I could be wrong and if I am then that would make me very happy but my gut feeling is the days of seeing Stoya in porn are over. Once her contract with DP is done then so will she.

I'm on the side of the fence that loves Stoya, and saw her first on the alt sites like GodsGirls, Deviant Nation, etc, but i really REALLY do not like DP movies in the least. I just look at her pretty pics, read her blog and stuff.
Her pale skin and look in general is amazing. It also helps she's dabbled in the fetish modeling world (for me)

I'm a huge fan of Stoya as well. She is both really pretty and a really good performer.
And she's got a beautiful smile.
