I remember reading somewhere that she was once a child actor or something. And she didn't want to reveal herself because people would recognise her. Its probably a load of bs but who knows...
Plus there is a pic of Mason up at IAFD, whether its her or not I dont know. I think I would be disappointed to see her face now because I've sort of built up an image of her in my head after hearing her voice so often on her films and the podcasts. I know if I saw a genuine picture of her I would feel kinda let down, which is really messed up.
I love her porn though!
Here is the pic from IAFD of her but its still unconfirmed if its her. Says on the webpage 'courtesy of AVN'...

I first came familiar with Mason's work about 2 years ago, I can't remember the title but it was a scene for ava rose and mason was telling her that she had a major crush on her ass ;)
There is something Sexy and mysterious about her voice and the way she relates to her pornstars, she really knows her actresses and always finds a way to bring out the best in them.

Not clear to me? And I never troll.
Jeez is this an "appreciation" thread or a "blind worship" thread?
I'm not attacking her I'm asking a valid question. For all
you guys know Mason is really a guy. That could be any woman
talking on camera. Maybe its really William H actually directing
those movies? Would not be the first time men have posed as
female porn directors. But assuming she really is a director
I submit my question again .. why is she so ashamed to show her
face like Stagliano mentioned in his speech.

I really have to chime in here.
I actually appreciate and very much admire Mason and how private she is. Honestly, I sometimes wish I could be a little more like Mason myself.
Mason is a true artist IMHO. I don't think Mason feels the need to plaster her face and personal business everywhere all in her movies etc. And why would she? She's not a performer and her voice is there to narrate from time to time, which to me is one of the reasons why I was always attracted to her work. I liked the mystery. I liked the fact that although the concepts and the pairings are all via Mason's creative and twisted mind, she always captures the scene so that it is about the performance and the performers. Although she's always there to narrate and make us feel at home with her familiar voice, she never overshadows that performance with her presence.
Mason is just a private person in general and I feel very lucky and fortunate that I am one of a very lucky few that has a personal friendship with her and even then she is still just a private person. That's just her natural nature. Maybe that's why we get along so well. I admire her ability to be so private and I know she's told me before, (on camera I believe) that she admires how open I am. IDK, Mason is a very unique person and I enjoy her quirks. I'm attracted to artistic people. I have a lot of artist friends and a lot of them are very private, just like Mason. So, honestly I don't think it's weird at all. Anonymity is really taken for granted nowadays. And trust me, I would know.
Her movies are about her performers and their sexuality and the exploration of that and how she can help create a situation where each performer can reach an even higher level of intensity for each scene. This is why Mason is the best and most cutting edge in the business right now. And I know damn well, I'm not the only one that would agree with that statement.
I could see if you were a performer in the past like Belladonna or Kimberly Kane etc, how being on camera is important. Who they are and their past performances are what is going to attract most of their audience. So to me that makes sense. But weather the director wants to be seen or not etc, really doesn't affect the quality of the product for me. It's about whether or not they were able to put together a magical scene, not the image of the director.
And as far as Mason "exploiting" female performers....
ROTFL so fucking hard I pissed my pants. Girls in this industry beg to shoot for Mason. I think more female performers are in love with Mason than they are with Manuel. lol. HA! I have so many girls tell me they want to shoot for her so bad. So many girls say they're holding out on things like their first anal's etc, because they only want to do it for Mason. Mason is just one of those magical people. If you've had the chance to meet her and really get to know her, you fall in love with her. It just happens. Ask any girl that's shot for her. There's just something about her. When you shoot for Mason you wanna go harder than you ever have. You want every scene you do for her to be the BEST. There's just something about her.
I think the fact that Mason is so private is also what makes me feel so special about our friendship. I know she doesn't get that personal with very many people. I feel special. She's not that way with everyone. Just a select few. And I'm happy I'm one of the few.

For the record, I can personally confirm Mason is definitely female. I would definitely have noticed that :). I can also confirm, as anyone who watches a Mason movie can, that William H. doesn't direct her movies. I think, for a time, their styles converged a bit back in 07/08, but now they're quite distinct and they have very different approaches.
Zambi, she is very proud of what she does, as I'm sure you can tell if you listen to any of the podcast episodes on our blog, for example. She's mostly proud of the girls she works with, and many of them are very close outside of the business.
Mason is a director. Not an owner, manager, or press rep. All directors bring different qualities to the industry, and different approaches, just like in mainstream. It's an artistic craft. Some directors are inclined to be very public, and others aren't. Some change over time. I wouldn't read anything too deep into it.
The best examples I can offer of her pride is the time and energy she puts into her work, technically improving her camerawork, and the relationships she has with those that work with her... Every movie means so much to Mason. Generally speaking that's the one quality that always separates good directors from bad, in my opinion.
From Tori Black Is Pretty Filthy, Asa Akira Is Insatiable, and most recently Gangbanged... no matter what the title is I know if Mason is directing she will give it her all. She always has the perspective of a customer/fan (because that's what she used to be). She will go over every tiny detail to make her work the best it can be for you. Elegant Angel wouldn't be in the position it is today without the amazing collaborations she has managed with spectacular talent, and the fact she has put so much pride into her work. That's the extent of her responsibility and, from what I can tell, what she likes to focus on.

Goddammit, I don't even like gangbangs. Now I'm going to have to watch Gangbanged given all the praise here.
That's how good Mason is, and I respect her privacy.

So this is what ADT is for. Kristina Rose just offered a passionate defense of an amazing director. Honestly, when I first read the post accusing Mason of "chicken shit" anonymity, I couldn't help but laugh. Have you not watched Mason's films!?! I've watched so many Mason films and I can't believe how comfortable and open Mason is making these girls feel. She has a real gift and deserves nothing but praise. Congrats Mason! I love your work, I love your mystery, I love what you've given me. Kristina Rose is an incredible performer and Mason is an incredible director. Neither of you should stop; you're perfect.
EDIT: I should give praise to way more than one great film that she's directed.

I know she's a woman, and it seems her stars feel pretty safe with her.
But on an aesthetic level, I find most of her stuff over-the-top abusive & too indulgent towards the men. It's like she teams up with the guy in the scene, and they join forces to destroy the girl. Strangely, for me anyways, Mason herself ends up being the most arousing thing in the scene...because she's the only woman who seems to be unabashedly in control & enjoying herself.
So it would be cool if she kind of explored the reverse. Like team up with (not in the physical sense) the girls & bully the weak guys. Not in the dominatrix sense, but just in sexual solidarity.
P.S. I still loved the Lady Fellatio series. Why did she stop those? :(

^ Tori Black is Pretty Filthy 1&2. Tori, my favorite, explicitly claims control. I think Mason is far from "teaming up" with anyone.

Again, did not mean "teaming up" in the physical sense (just verbal & in spirit). But thanks for mentioning that title.

You've posted more than once about your dislike of Mason and porn directors and performers in general, so you're not terribly convincing pretending you 'appreciate' anything she's done. Troll elsewhere.

I don't see the need to find out what Mason looks like, she's one of the best directors in the biz and as long as she keeps making great porn I'm happy. Plus, it would be kinda annoying if she started shoving her face into the camera during scenes.

Seems to me like the fact that Mason is female gives some consumers a sense that they have a right to see her on camera. They don't.

I don't really understand this post.
I get the impression the girls our enjoying themselves in Mason movies more than I do in any other movies. I basically think the exact opposite of what you said. The girls seem in total control of the situation, and it always seems like they are really keen and enthusiastic to do it.

As I have mentioned before; I have had the pleasure of chatting with her. While I may not know what she looks like: I do know that she is all about the presentation. The fact that an individual cares so much about the strength and delivery of her pornography is always a defining characteristic.
Going back to what Kristina said; Mason holds a lot of regard in the adult industry, and while those of us might wonder how attractive she might be IRL, all of us who are familiar with her work know that she is a true visionary when it comes to sex and porn. As far as I am concerned, that is respectable enough.

Well at least "this time" you didn't just blatantly misquote me as usual. You at least added a link
to my original post. So read it again and you'll see I said she was overrated compared to other
female directors. Sacrilege!!! How dare I disrespect the goddess Mason!! What a bunch of sycophants!!!
I actually think she's done some good movies. I just don't think she's as great as people claim
that's all.
Anyway if you think my question was outta line then I guess Stagliano's AVN speech
was outta line also? He was clearly telling industry people to stand up and be proud of
what they do. Why? Well you could be giving ammunition to feds if they choose to go after
you for obscenity charges. Prosecutor will tell the jurors "if what (Mason) is doing is
not bad, indecent, or obscene then why is she hiding her identity". Something to think about.

I just want to say "Thank you, Mason" for suggesting "double anal" to Bobbi Starr after she said her pussy couldn't take it anymore
I don't if it was a spur of the moment thing or if they had discussed the possibility beforehand.
Nonetheless, Bobbi's scene in Gangbanged is now my favorite scene in 2011

BTW: I've seen very few of the movies she's specifically directed. I liked them well enough, but there's no "blind worship" going on here, it's just a reaction to you talking shite.

Damn does Stagiano read ADT? Where is he when I need him?
But that's what I get for trying to have a serious discussion
on a porn forum.
Ok I'm outta here but not before I leave you all with something to think about ...
Why isn't there a Kristina Rose appreciation thread?
Kristina Rose does all the work she's the freakin star right!!!
But the mysterious unseen Mason is getting the attention here?
Mason is pimpin that poor naive girl and she's got you all mesmerized.
I just hope you all don't end up dead wearing black/white nike's and sweatsuits
LOL!!!
I'm outta here!! You may all return to your Mason worshipping.

Good. How can it be blind worship when we watch her films anyway? That never made sense to me. So you don't like Mason's work. I happen to dislike Mike Adriano and Jay Sin's work, other directors the industry and all its fans seem to adore, but am I over there bitching about how they make girls prolapse ad nauseum? No, because it doesn't matter. Watch what suits your fancy and leave the rest of us to make our own choices. So, as Kristina said, go drink your haterade elsewhere while we anxiously await the next work of genius from the one and only Mason.

Most directors who put themselves in the shots are too late to be beaten, since they've already been hit with the ugly stick, but Mason does set an example that I would like to see all directors follow.

P.S.
For those desperate to out Mason, 'Lady Fellatio 2' provides some clues.
In scene 1, Olivia Saint licks cum off Mason's boot and there might be a relection of her in the leather.
In scene 12, Mason introduces us to her brother (she writes that in the scene intro). He's the guy driving the van.
Basically, anyone who can unwarp reflections & identify some random dude's sister would really be helping us crack one of porn's greatest unsolved mysteries.
