For those who know I am one of his strongest detractor from his first involvement in PB.
Nevertheless we both took the time to chat about the subjects that matters to us the most, in a civil way.
So here are some excerpts in a bullet form:
- About the complaint that he split the scenes in order to multiply the amount of items to sell on his outfit site
> Nonsense. He has no say in the number of events or number of scenes.
- Who decides then?
> The owner
- About using too few males and them being drained by multiple scenes shot on the same day or even on multiple productions such as PL, StudioPL, etc....
> Not true. Lately we used 90 guys to get 102 loads. Guys are free to roam between productions. They are still rewarded for bigger loads. Now with the new studio and every week shootings, we will be able to pass 100 guys in 1 day.
- About us ranting about the direction of the scenes
> He does not call the shots. He shoots scenes according to a timeline dictated from above. Things will improve in a few weeks due to changes done by PB. "Like steady shootings leading to be able to get more guys… if we shoot 2-3 times a month, it’s a miracle we got 70 guys per shooting these last months"
- About scoopers.... he tends to repeat the claim some of you guys have about "finger bukkake". Not my claim though.
> Limited budget. Scooper must be an actress.
- I objected that the scooper must be more active, more vicious, take more initiatives
> Everything is scripted, even the scooper role
- About the overall vibe of the scenes, the feel that everything is clinical, scripted
> He agrees. He even was asked by the owner a long time ago to keep the set silent. There are things that he cannot disclose (meaning that there are some things he does not like that he must comply with while shooting the way i see it.)
- The main reason he gives for things being over-scripted is that it is a requirement by all parties involved to eliminate the risk of troubles (He hinted at Torbe's problems with justice as well as France's ). I replied that I don't buy it. There must be some leeway for a "real" director to change the vibe on set. He agreed to try and change that.
> "It will improve. There will be a lot more guys really soon. I will ask pb to include more budget to make scooper to do what you suggest, let’s see what they say… "
- About the ridiculous loads compared to the great era...
> They are paid a lot more for good loads
- It seems it does not motivate them. The loads are sometimes borderline ridiculous you know
> I know. Sometimes it was because of the double/tripe cumshots some guys wanted to do, Some times it’s because they attend to other productions, Sometimes it’s because they fuck at home
- Maybe skip the loads in BTS and interviews and put them in the scene. Many of us think those scenes have been deprived of their real intent anyway
> But the guys that do a bad cumshot are not rewarded.
> I can’t do that. Loads in bts interviews and photo session are the most important for pb apparently, So I have to chose the best guys for these .
- I complained about the owner leading PB in a direction not one of us appreciates....
> He reveres the owner. PB exists thanks to him. He is untouchable.
- So Giorgio is loyal. That is good for stability. But it looks like the owner is actually the one with the veto power for many things. And the director is somehow powerless for the things we rant about.
He also tried to use the fact that we, the forum users, don't really oppose an organized front.
I agreed with him on that point. I said that I don't like blonds, claws, skinny sticks and that I prefer a very active scooper, but I agree that PB should content every one. On the other hand I said that our rant has one thing in common and it is the clinical vibe that killed PBs signature. He agreed and said he will try to act on that front, and also on the scooper front.
We'll see.
I had the impression of talking to someone sensible, not a fool at all. Someone that has a budget to respect and guidelines dictated to him, with very few liberties.
I could be wrong. I invited him to participate in the debate that will follow.
Ok everything though would have been better giorgio having a chat with other chaps than you
If you don’t like skinny blonds and you prefer fatty asses from south america let’s hope he won’t hear you
