I just watched "Stepmother 2: The Maid's Revenge" It is one of the hottest movies I have ever seen. Part of it was AnnMarie Rios. She's gorgeous. And she's very into sex. I mean, really into it. If you're out there AnnMarie... I love you honey. :) But what made the movie even more incredible for me - was the superb direction. The positions of the actors and the position and angle of the camera. There was this amazing level of intimacy between the actors... You really thought they were both in love and in lust with each other. And the angles on the camera didn't obscure it by the normal shitty positioning that most directors use. I truly was in awe of every aspect of this film. Thank you AnnMarie. Thank you Nica. Well done ladies.
Yes, she makes great films. I hope Sweet Sinner will do to straight porn what GFF and others did to the g/g genre! Edited by - Prophit on 11/20/2009 8:53:00 AM

Her G/G efforts rank from abominable to great, so you'll never know what you get. Edited by - Slaughtersun on 11/20/2009 11:21:49 AM
I don't really care for g/g stuff. I mean the idea of toys turns me off immensely to be honest. I remember someone saying somewhere on this board - an actress maybe... That real lesbians don't use toys. (And while that may be an extreme exaggeration...) The g/g in the subject movie... No toys... Frickin hot for me. Damn I love you AnnMarie :)
Well if you don't like toys then you should check out Nica's lesbian movies (Sweetheart Video) because there usually isn't a toy in sight. And "real lesbians" do use toys.
While that is absolutely true, it doesn't make it more acceptable to watch. I for myself will enjoy a nice strap-on fuck every once in a while, but other than that I'm not interested. I haven't seen all SV movies, but I didn't encounter any toys so far which is a big plus of course. But as I said before, my personal beef with SV is the casting. I don't like Elexis very much, and they often cast Sinn Sage who I can't stand at all, and additionally they will find every skinny, pale looking, flat chested and shoot them in their G/G movies. With all that being said, SV has put out some milestones of the G/G genre, no doubt about it.
Thank you JBauer, I really appreciate it! My hope with Sweet Sinner is to show real, passionate b/g sex but without sacrificing intensity and raw, animal lust. It's been challenging, as most performers are used to doing very impersonal scenes (and for some it may be easier to do impersonal scenes...) But by and large the performers have responded enthusiastically to what we're doing, and the audience has, too. Again, I really appreciate your spreading the word about us. Thank you!
Sounds really good Nica, and I can't wait to check out some of your films. Overall, your saying a "lot" of things I want to hear. As a viewer, I'd say it's been tough finding films where the performers truly relax and let themselves go. I appreciate the ones who aren't afraid to be vulnerable, or are willing to try. To the OP. AnnMarie Rios is really doing it for me right now, so I think I just found my next AnnMarie purchase.
I'd like to see what Nica would do with an unlimited budget. You can see from her work that often times she has a vision that exceeds the resources at her command. Porn stars aren't always good at delivering lines -- she could use a good dialogue coach for one thing. It'd just be interesting to see what she could do if money were no object. If I ever win the lottery....
Being myself a huge supporter of Nica's work I might say yes , but actually it depends on what kind of movies you're looking for , Mason for example is very able to take anything out of a star , the use of camera angles by John Leslie are still unsurpassed. Jim Powers can provide very good movies especially those with a story and has fantasy in his views. What Nica adds to her movies is passion she also doesn't stay too much in a position or in a angle so that her scenes vary enough to avoid boredom but yet maintain passion in them , also she chooses her performers among those who like each others or at least can easily work together. I had this impression all the performers she chose have some chemistry , even when I thought there wasn't , I discovered reading somewhere that in that scene was quite the opposite they did the scene that way because the actress liked it that way. Unfortunately I can't watch scenes in streaming and even to download to own is out of the question for now , so I have to pass her work for AEBN , very annoying for me there are many scenes (entire movies actually) I'm very interested in.

^ She has posted on the LezLoveVideo forums that her new Candy Girls and Hard Candy films will be coming out on DVD and Blu-Ray. There were some delays setting up the distribution.
Years ago I bought the hype and jumped in with both feet, since GFF was at a low point and the GFF forum registration process was such a pain in the ass. After she banned me from her forum, I stopped watching Sweetheart for a while, and later I realized I could not remember a single great Sweetheart scene. She still talks a good game, which matches my current boredom with porn. I'll make the assumption that she just needed some time to learn how to shoot and get the funding for the porn she wants to make, although I get the impression that what she considers erotic may always be too strange for me.
She has upped her game since the stuff I saw previously. We are still probably miles apart on many types of scene setups, but I might not find any distracting technical flaws like what I could not ignore years ago, in her lez porn. What I see in Sweet Sinner and Hard Candy pics is mostly the standard porn positions I've already seen too much. Edited by - charn on 3/1/2012 2:56:44 AM
^ The difference isn't in positions but in what they do and the way it is shown, hugs while fucking, kisses , hands pushing the guy deeper ,riding faster having the dick no matter how big to completely disappear , a girl suddemly grabbing the male neck pull it down and kissing him almost with rage which is what I for once do when I cum (I mean in a male part of course) , that is passion, lust or whatever someone might feel when fucks , if you stay focuse on position only you will miss almost everything the scene means
Charn -- you have missed the point of Nica's work. Positions are irrelevant. The standard porn director tells the performers how much of each position he/she wants from the couple and then coaches them through the process. Frankly I don't see any way that the performers can stay focused on the sex with the director telling them what to do all the time. Nica doesn't work that way. She finds people who have some chemistry, puts them in a setting, and has them go at it with each other in whatever way seems natural. To me, this is her genius. It's not the "insert-tab-a-into-slot-b-repeat" kind of sex that most of so-called mainstream porn provides along with gyno closeups and fake moaning/gasping/screaming. And there are other directors who are getting more into sexual encounters with less editing, less sex-position-scripting (usually none at all) and spontaneous reactions from the performers. Bobbi Starr would be a good example of this. Manuel Fererra's "Raw" series would be another. I've been looking at porn for a LONG time and I'm tired of watching people go through the motions. I want to see real passion on the screen, and I want to know that the director isn't calling out the position changes.
Thanks mstrhole. You are the best. Charn's correct that I banned him from my forum a few years back, and I'm sorry you're still smarting, dude. I never take issue with my detractors or critics UNLESS they're trying to give me some "payback" under the guise of an "objective review" following some tiff between us. Its intellectually dishonest to attack someone's work just because you have a problem with them personally. I routinely compliment good work of people I can't stand, because it's two completely separate things. (I just did it today, in fact.) So Charn, why make it a point to chime in on every thread on which I'm mentioned (which you do) if my work is so forgettable? For the record, stills photos are NOT taken during the actual sex scene. I hate the whole "sex stills" charade and I find they almost always look staged. The photographer directs the performers to pose so he can get what he needs, and what the promotional departments need, for the shots. I consider it the photographer's area, his "forte," and not part of the actual movie, so I'm not involved in it. I only tell the photographer what my concept is for the boxcover shot. For those who are about to ask, taking stills during the actual scene would be intrusive (e.g., flash, shutter sounds). So just be aware that any "sex stills" from my movie's scenes should not be regarded as screen grabs or true action shots.
+1 you put it perfectly. Another thing to add is that her movies appeals to both men and women, which is a measure of how good a movie is imo. If I was to watch a porn movie with a woman, I would choose Nica's movies.
I think that is valid criticism, although I don't agree with it entirely. I wouldn't mind seeing a little more variety sometimes though...well as long as they are comfortable in them. Be nice to be able to see full-body shots sometimes, although I say that about almost any film ever made.
I shoot full body shots all the time. I film with three cameras, so you get a variety of shots. I'm not a cinematographer by trade, but my goal is to make the viewer feel he or she is on the bed with the couple and has simply turned to watch them. So I try to keep the cameras level the performers and I don't go too wide -- generally the performer's bodies fill most of the screen, but they are still full body shots a good percentage of the time. But again, stills are a whole different area and I don't direct or shoot stills. AmKamaSutra thank you so very much. I strive to improve all the time in many ways, but the most important thing for me is that the sex look real, and that the emotions leading up to the sex seem real. When they do, it's by definition not offensive to either of the sexes; it's an expression of humanity that anyone can relate to. It doesn't always work, but it's always the goal. Thank you so much for watching. Edited by - NicaNoelle on 7/22/2012 2:59:10 PM
Well when I said full-body shots, I should have added full-body shots where the women is standing. When it comes to shooting sex hortizortal, I think you get it and get it almost everytime. I feel like you generally capture what I need to see. Sex with full-body shots that doesn't veer all over the place, plus also captures the women's reaction. I have a lot more praise than criticism for your style of shooting. Still I think there is a general tendency for most filmmakers, mainstream and adult porn, to shoot women from the hip and up, which robs me of what I want to see, which are the legs, calves, and sometimes even the feet or high heeles.
Ohhh okay. I see what you're saying. I'll try to keep that in mind when I shoot and see if I can make a few adjustments here and there with that visual in mind.
Hi Nica! I remember that you directed "Inari Loves Girls". I was wondering if you're gonna have or would like to have Inari Vachs do any girl/girl scenes for you at Girl Candy Films too?
I love Nica's scene with Sydni Ellis - why can't I find another woman who can use a strap on like that *shivers* I hope one day she might do a scene with Mr Marcus or Sean Michaels, mostly Sean, I like him :)
Nica is definitely very cute. I am sure many of us wish she would perform more but she seems to have a good reputation as a director/producer and I hope she has found her niche so she can make a good living in the porn industry. I definitely have some fantasies I would like to act out with her.
Marcus and I actually did three scenes that day. I think the camera was only rolling for one, though - the second one. That's why my makeup is already looking a little messed up in the dialogue. Like most women with a pulse, I love Mr. Marcus. <3

Nica You are the best porn director I know of that shoot real love making, and I love you for it. Nica please could you cast Nacho Vidal in one of your movies. If you don't know Nacho Vidal is I will give you some info on him. Nacho has been in porn biz for 17 years and plus he is a huge name and a Icon in the porn world and AVN hall of famer. MY SIGNATURE =(I love Rocco Siffredi & Nacho Vidal & Evan Stone & Dale Dabone)=
Nica honey :) I just saw this. So happy that you responded. As I said you are the most amazing director I think there has ever been. Allow me to give you my "wish list". 1) I hate when directors cover the beautiful bodies of women. Whether it is with lingerie or sheets or a comforter. Please try to keep the beautiful femininity of the female actor perfectly visible. 2) I love me some real cream pies. You know, real ones. Real, real ones. Not the craptastic ones that 99% of directors do because they are in love with seeing leakage. An alternate way to show the climax would be to show the DEEP injection of the semen with the spasms in the base of the penis during ejaculation. You use 3 cameras, one could be focused on that "pumping" :) Of course something is really hot is multiple cumshots from one guy. He's so into the girl, he keeps going, and then later a facial... Or better yet an oral cream pie where he orgasms into her closed mouth. Oh how I love your stuff :) The above has me thinking about the hotness of most of the scenes you direct.

Jaded little me didn't follow the comings and goings in adult entertainment very thoroughly during the last few years. However, when I recently did a little private research about contemporary g/g movies and their influence on the ejaculatory behaviour of long-term unemployed domestic trouser snakes I found out that there's probably more great stuff out there than ever. There had to be eroticism, good chemistry, orgasms, a complete absence of toys and yet enough attention had to be given to pussy, which I thought would be much harder to find in combination than it turned out to be. Having only one cock to stroke at a time, what I needed now was a statistically significant and scientifically balanced sample of movies that I could still use to continue my research even if I had been banished to a deserted island for some reason. Or in other words, I bought three movies over at Lezlovevideo's, one being a compilation from a website (Sapphic Erotica) and the others from the two directors/studios that I stumbled over several times in the course of my research because their work seemed to be most appealing to me. One of these directors is Mason from Club 59 with the movie "Dani", the other, as you may already have guessed, is Nica Noelle from Girl Candy Films with the movie "Girls Tribbing Girls". Without trying to anticipate the final results, I suppose that both of them are worthy contenders for Best Director Ever, and in the end I may have a hard time declaring a winner. But then declaring a winner has never been a goal of my study in the first place. All I wanted to prove is that I'm not (as I have always assumed) a heterosexual man but a lesbian caught in a male body, and that the only reason for my overly exerted writing style is the fact that I didn't get to eat pussy in a long, long while. Perhaps I could be the couch in your next g/g movie, Nica?
It would be my pleasure. There seem to be a lot of (vaginal?) walls in your psyche that need breaking through. ;) I'm so grateful, and humbled, that you guys like the movies. And by the title of this thread! I don't even fantasize about things like this they're so far-fetched!

Thank you, Nica, but I'm afraid the pleasure would be all mine. And by the way, you're not even the only person in adult entertainment who thinks I'm crazy. I already got a Marie Luv autograph at ELA that reads "You're so quiet, probably a freak". Okay, so maybe I'm obsessed with pussy. But to me it would be a crime against nature if I wasn't.
To be honest,I really don't know that much about the angles of photography, or any of the other technical aspects of film direction. I just KNOW, when a particular scene is pleasing to the eye, and the background stage sets, ACTUALLY fit the particular film's historical time frame, and with ONE exception, Noelle's directorial efforts, ALWAYS,"fits the bill." For example, there is a series on TNT Network called "Bomb Girls,"in the WWII era, centering around the trials and tribulations of a group of young women, working in a munitions factory, assembling bombs, for the war effort. NATURALLY, to mirror the "way it was," back then, practically all of the women are smokers, and so, UNLIKE 99% of the adult films produced nowadays, including Noelle's, the women are frequently seen, lighting up and smoking cigarettes. "Mad Men," an AMC series, set in the 50's, also frequently uses this screen technique, to enhance, REALITY, and YES!,the EXTREME of sexuality to a GREAT many men, seeing tight camera shots of sexy, shapely women, lighting up and inhaling (sucking) deeply on, PREFERABLY, long all-white cigarettes. This is because, THAT'S the way it was, back then--smoking was seen as "glamorous for women," and a "mark of masculinity, for men, and, EVEN TODAY, with the EXCEPTION of porn's directors, cigarette smoking is utilized as a most VALUABLE screen prop, to ENHANCE some sexy female role, build on a masculine image, or EVEN, to FIT, a particular sress-filled scene, or environment, such as a brothel--Can't help but chuckle here, at an old Bud Lee porn feature, set in a whore house, with all the scantily-clad women, sucking on LOLLIPOPS! Even, "Bomb Girls," however does have its flaws, for while the screen props and settings are extremely accurate, much like ALL of Noelle's sets, except FOR?, a number of the women are seen, lighting up and smoking, FILTER-TIP cigarettes, which were not EVEN on the market in the 40's. But since this thread is mainly about Noelle, and her expertise as a visionary film director, I TOO join with ALL of you here, for the lady is in a CLASS virtually by herself. For, Noelle, CONSTANTLY turns out TRULY rare porn fare, where both characters and the story line, which I EXPECT in any feature film, be it main-stream, or "steam-stream," TRULY, come ALIVE, for the viewer, and the result is not only very enteraining, but since its porn, HOTTER than HELL, with sex scenarios. What makes Noelle such a fine director to me, is that, while 95% of the adult film industry's "movers and shakers," are only interested in either, "the QUICKER or the CHEAPER," I've read, on various blogs, that Noelle's sets are, quite LENGTHY and DEMANDING, but yet, highly ENJOYABLE--and that's a TRIFECTA hard to match for ANY director. Finally,There is NO doubt in my mind, that the lady is forced to work with a screen budget, NO-WHERE near that of MOST of the major porn companies, and YET, she continually turns out a product, equal to, and often-times, even BETTER than the "BIG DOGS," so my hat wll ALWAYS doff to her screen achievements--just wish they'd be SMOKING!!!!
