Fallen-X.com

If you dont know yet, we started Alhana’s new site, www.smokingalhana.com. In a nutshell, it is all of her smoking sets that she had in a seperate section on www.sexyalhana.com and we decided to dedicate a domain to her smoking fetish fans and members. What a pain in the ass that was. Not only moving all the content, but going through and rebranding each and every picture to reflect where others could find the site as it was no longer on sexyalhana.com. Set by Set we went and Alhana is still finishing up text that was never written, so keep your eyes out for new writings. And as memberships go, the same goes for her new smoking site that if you are a member of her sexyalhana site or rottestar.com…you do not need a new membership to view that content. We did have a couple of people drop their sexyalhana.com memberships and sign up for her smoking site. Ugh. Need not do that peoples.

Also been regrouping and preparing for much more new content on RottenStar.com and shift folders and making things more managable. So thats the job I am doing right now as I reupload Auroras sets. New branding and new thumb sizes to keep everything standardized across the three sites. Marissa also has been coming over frequently and we are getting some kick ass shots in. And yes, I have read our mails wanting more amateurish looking sets, and we have been doing some off the cuff shooting. I find it best to hand the camera over to Alhana and by natural course of action…the sets look more like when I started shooting. There ya go, problem solved…until she gets better. Lots more going on but I will hold off till I get some more work done.

Another years has come and gone, and from the lack of blog posts, you would think it flew by. Well, it did, sort of. Recently I have been re-arranging RottenStar.com and keeping up on Alhana’s content for her site. The pattern is set and is working well. Mondays I put up her free Video Blog, Picture of the Week, and a Non-Smoking Update. Tuesdays and Thursdays are reserved for RottenStar updates, whether they be clips or photo sets. Wednesdays are Alhana clip days and finally Friday is Alhana’s Smoking Set and Members Video Blog for the weekend. So there you have it, 5 days a week with something new going on everyday. Its down to a science now and it is boring the fucking hell out of me.

But luckily there are people to interact with. Members, fans, and other models/webmasters are a nice break and they kick ass. We cant get enough emails and its a thrill to talk to some of these crazy pervs. Great bunch…all of them. But the real entertainment I thrive for is the occasional asshole/cunt who tries to put a monkey wrench into the works. How come is it they seam to be from MN and close by? They never try to start shit with me either, always taking the alternate route of harassing one of our models or friends. Probably because my reputation as not giving a fuck precedes me and my hunger for the hunt is always out of my reach.

On to the story. Seams that a Krista Joy Seim decided to email a bunch of her former classmates pictures taken off RottenStar.com to show how fucking sexy a couple of our models are. I know that bitch was rubbing one off and although I was a bit upset that there are people that still act like she did, I was more upset that she didnt have the balls to join. Yeah, every model goes through the shit and I have heard the stories and it amazes me hypocrits have the balls to pull shit like that. And even though it doesnt really affect me, boredom sets in and I get involved, as I usually do. I will give Krista credit though, she is a fine looking chick who would look amazing bent over with a cock stuffed in her cunt…preferably mine.

And thats my story of the week. Other than its cold as hell, but we live in MN so thats not really news. So until next time….

So I have been doing alot of thinking as of late. And I thought I would let you in on a little bit of what those thoughts were. As many of our members know, when you join one site like RottenStar.com, you get access to SexyAlhana.com as well. In the future it will include Alhanas Smoking site which is a store front on the free side that dedicates content to that fetish. On the inside though, it is all access pass and thus nothing will change for our members. I would like to say that when you join one of our sites, you are part of the Rotten Studios Networks. But as an independant artist, that has a little bit of definition problem as the word Network has a different meaning to what we are use to.

The site we left to become exclusive on our own was a “network” site as are many of the sites we interact with. FreakDaddys, WildRose, DreamNet, and there are slews of others. Those examples are what I define as “network” in that they rely heavily on models contributing images in exchange for a percentage of sales. In a nutshell, pretty straight forward and the models usually keep ownership of their content should they leave. I tip my hat to those Networks as its a job that would drive me insane. I try my hardest to run things hardcore down the road business with no feelings involved when it comes to what needs to get done. And I know shit happens and some models have to exit their present network for whatever reason, but human nature would kick my ass, knowing that hard work or even the fate of the network always would rely heavily on the models to provide the content to keep things running smoothly. Again, my hats off to you folks and its definately a job I deeply respect and I wonder how you guys and gals dont go insane from time to time.

For us, we wanted to avoid the hassle and heartache. Not only for the reasons listed above, but because our skills had not matured to take on a venture like what those fine networks do. All our models are considered contractors as they are for standard Networks. The difference is that we pay the models to shoot content that in turn they release the ownership of those images to us. It can be costly at times depending on the content shot, but the content is ours free and clear with their written consent via releases and the paychecks they cash. As long as we do not use the images in an attempt to intentionally hurt the model and use the images for the commercial use, they can never be removed and we can concentrate on marketing such said images.

Now that has not completely made things easy. Even though it is all laid out in black and white, we still get an occasional model who feels she has the right or need to have her images removed from one of our sites. Had it happen three times out of 17 models that we have worked with thus far. Even though we have it in writing and we are in the right, still makes us sigh a breathe of sadness to think how people go through life. Some people have our checks cashed before the ink even dries. Anyways, things will never change and its just a similarity between what we do and how “Networks” operate. And when I say things wont change, I meant that we will not forfeit material that we paid for. Business is business and we did not get to where we are by handing out to charity cases.

But it still leaves the question……what the hell are we? Let me know and have a great Monday.

Looking around I cant seem to find where I left my motivation and time to write here. Its not as if I dont have anything to write. I am just plain lazy when it comes to this. Actually I have been busy as of late. Adding pages to SexyAlhana.com and re-arranging RottenStar.com a little. Economy is hitting everyone pretty hard, so we also decided to drop the prices of our memberships. Also made some video sale more visible, which may piss some people off who have worked with us, but thats tough because this is our bread and butter. Life as an Adult Producer and Entertainer is fun when your getting paid, but its not easy at times.

Anyways, some have been asking when the Fallen site was going to be ready, and all I can say is…its tough to find paid help somedays. Wanted to get it ready by Halloween but unfortunately the models who were going to participate have sort of disappeared. We will get something rolling soon and hire on some bigger contract paying gigs for those who want them. No biggie. We will get things done…sooner or later.

And now on to what I lost. Time. Where the hell did it go? Well we are looking for some recreational fun and have a couple of friends we are going to make time for that write and keep in touch. Ash and Angie, we are ready for that time off. Ash is a real sweetheart and we have to get down to see her soon. And tomorrow I am going to write again. Any ideas? Shoot me comments and I will ponder on them.

Its 2am and I am at a complete loss as what to write. So lets just roll with what comes to mind. And speaking of “blank” thoughts, I will tell you that the majority of the stage names you see on our sites are left to me for some unknown reason. I am not sure why, but everyone thinks I can come up with names like I put on socks. I really struggle at times, because its not as simple as some other things that come to me. Creative I can be, but when choosing a name that fits an idea I have about a model is really tough.

So our model up after Calysta, whom I really struggled hard with for a name as well, is “Reyes”. My first impression of Reyes when I opened the door for our first meeting was, “Damn girl, your tall”. And rightfully so as she stands over 6′1″ and I am only 5′10″. Not that that is of any importance, but you must understand that she is just as gorgeous if not more so than she is tall. Add the fact that she is super talkative and has the charisma that would brighten any room, and you have star power. When I die, I want Reyes at my funeral to be sure everyone is having a good fucking time.

Alright, so the shoots went great and she is a blast to photograph. But, no idea of what to go by in terms of a name. Fuck. Ok, no problem. It took me two to three days and I just couldnt come up with a name that would justify her stature. I looked online through baby names and meanings and came up with zilch. During this whole process I kept returning to a name from a girl I had known and adored in school. RaShell was just as charismatic and an absolute doll that I totally fell for in middle school. Reyes had the same qualities that kept bringing me back to that one name. In the end I didnt really want to use RaShell because it sort of holds a special spot in my heart of the past. So my next best bet was to think of a name that would work well if my friend of old had a sister or a twin….and it came like lightning. Reyes and RaShell and thus how it came to be. Sometimes the hardest creativity is only a memory away if I put a little bit of my heart into it.

Reyes, you rock and thus far have shined beyond our expectations and are a most wonderfull friend. Tommorow, I will present our third model in the “New RottenStar Generation”.

So lets move on from the last post entry I did as that is old business that had to get taken care of before moving forward. I said my peace and look forward to continuing relations with FD as well as individual Charms to make for a better opportunity to get our ideas and creations across to the masses that desire to view them. The past is gone and today is the dream of the future.

As many of you know, July 1st was RottenStar.coms first year anniversary of being on the World Wide Web. I hope you enjoy the new paint job and trimmings we have incorporated in the new design. You see, many webmasters and models have the same look and feel to their offerings and by no means is that a bad thing. Not at all and I applaud all who are in this business and respect their creativity and process of doing business. I, on the other hand, cant leave well enough alone and need to tweak as our ideas and progress advance. What you see today on RottenStar is our realizing a vision coming to light by one small leap.

And that vision that I have had for over two years is being brought to your screen with a very talented and beautiful close friend of mine, Calysta. Her ideas, thoughts, and vibrant nature is what RottenStar needed. Very few people can say they have the fortunate luck of working with such a person, but I am very blessed to have such a gorgeous friend who wants to work on making RottenStar what you see today. I love you girl and the future looks bright. Our other models, as much ass as they kick, have a tough act to follow with what we shot. But I think the energy and creativity will certainly be up a level from last year.

And now on to the future. If RottenStar is all that is glamorous and vibrant, Fallen-X.com will be her evil twin sister. Look for some dark galleries along with poetry, writings, and other works of art that will be the inspiration for what is to come on Fallen-X. I will be working with Calysta on many of the ideas and outlays so for those who loved her first update on RottenStar will be overjoyed to see her take on a darker role. Although it will be more of a “once a month” update, it will be an addition to what the members will get to experience with their RotteStar/SexyAlhana ticket of admission. As always and promised, any creative work we publish will be all access to our members no matter which door they choose to enter.

As a great many of you know, Alhana and I got our start in the Adult Entertainment Business by submitting our content to Southern Charms to be displayed on their web pages. It was great fun and the models, staff, and most of the people we met or dealt with were and still are good eggs. Also, many know that we parted ways with SC and within I want to make it clear as to the reasons why. I have had heard some crazy ass stories circulating and even though writing about it wont erase some peoples ignorance, it will set the record straight for the rest.

First and foremost, our involvement with SC was that of a 3rd party contractor. We submitted images and we held ownership rights to those images and videos. SC placed those images on a page built for us and thus retained 50% of any revenue generated by the page built for us. By standard terms, we were the content wholesaler and they provided the outlet store to get the product to the consumer. Nothing more, nothing less.

In 2006 we, Alhana and I, wanted to try our hand at creating our own sites and taking full control over what we do and present. As such, SexyAlhana.com was born and we were off and running. We were now full time website owners who were not bound by anyone’s rules and ideals. A year ago we opened RottenStar.com and again, it was ours 100%. All the while we still upheld our stance that a part of our income would come from SC and we continued to update that site with content.

Rotten Studios, which is our brand for which our sites fall under, is our devotion and vehicle in which we create, market, and display the images you see on our sites. We had to shrug off the part time attitude and structure a working model that would suit our best interests and the interests of our consumers. Marketing is one of the things that are on the bottom of my “fun things to do” list along with accounting and paperwork. But it is required and Freakdaddys was the first place we started building that marketing partnership. We were marketing our sites from SC as well as our own products and times were pleasant from a business standpoint.

Up until the fall of last year, FreakDaddys.com and SC were on good terms. They had even exchanged many ideas and it seemed as the two went hand in hand. FD provided cam shows for SC girls to promote their sites on and SC linked back to FD for the videos Cyrix sold that Charms could utilize for extra cash. Bottom line was that there was a great tool for models to use on both sides of the fence to further their business. But that was to come to an end and a lot of innocent bystanders were about to have a dilemma due to a conflict they had no part in.

My opinions are my own and I certainly am not stupid when it came to what happened to start the feud between the two networks, SC and FD. But my opinions, as true as they may be, are not the point of this post and certainly have no merit of blame as the past is gone and we are standing in a new perspective. The facts of why we left though are important as it may give insight to how you do business, either as a model, webmaster, or a client wanting to know how sites run.

SC forbids any model appearing on their site to be affiliated with or have contact with FreakDaddys. I certainly could and would respect their wishes as it pertained to the images SC were licensed to use in the running of the site they built for us. But they had also forbid any marketing by our own independent sites, SexyAlhana.com and RottenStar.com. RottenStudios was not to affiliate themselves with the “enemy”. What we had built from the ground up was now being dictated as to what and where we couldn’t do business. This also applied to many of our friends who also had their own sites apart from SC and they did and felt as we did. Packed up our content and left as we felt our interests were not the heart of their issues in the feud as much as it was just being two big kids on the block fighting it out. We were pawns being used for selfish bickering.

Now we certainly are not competition for either SC or FD, and that’s fine by us. But we do hold very hard to what is ethical for running a business in which others can look over and respect. SC did not respect our own accomplishments and let their personal grudges force bad business practices. It has always been said, either you are with SC or you are with FD. Let me clue you in, we chose Rotten Studios and our fans/members. If you are wondering, this is being written on a site WE own and I run the motherfucking outfit with a sadistic pleasure. We do not receive money from either SC or FD. We do however market our wares with FD because they had and still have the integrity to keep our business relationship professional and respect us as a business in our own rights.

I have heard many outrageous things such as sticking with SC because of principle. First off, it was one individuals personal fight that led to the dispute and to side one way or another did not help pay the bills. We stick to very black and white ethics that state we will not take part or side in personal or business conflicts that do not serve our interests as an independent studio. People still ask if Freakdaddys pay is better and if it was worth staying with them. Again, ignorance runs deep and is fruitful by those who have no idea what happens around them.

In closing, I would like to say that we hold no ill will towards SC or any of the models there and never will. We have some great friends there as well as on Freakdaddys. We will continue to stay in touch and do business with charms and FD alike as long as it is peaceful keeping our clients needs in our best interest. It is our fans and members that are number one. Our business practices and ethics is driven to serve them as we are their servants creating the products they purchase and request. Too many people put themselves above the consumer or enter this business for personal sexual enjoyment among others who feel this is a lifestyle with a few paychecks for fun. I am here solely to create and express with the hopes that the members request more and demand my work to progress to something we all can enjoy together.

 (Fucked Up Royally: Also I must throw in that without RottenStar and the ability to promote that site, our models would hurt financially due to our lack of budget to hire them. They are some great people and very close friends who we see often and they are our world. I dedicate this post to them and promise that I will never practice business ethics or rules that we were subjected to that forced our leave. Models, Members and Fans come before personal bullshit, and I dont care how you try to justify it, business owners should know better.) 

You got it. I have tons to say but too fucking lazy to write it down. But you know what? Now I have no choice but to write something every freaking day until this FreakDaddys contest is over showing the ass I have attached to me. It in itself is not lazy, but you get my point. So if you happen to run across an ass that looks like the one below and there is a little spot to select it as your favorite….do it. Vote for my ass. And look to tomorrow for an actual post on this great and wonderful place in which wonderous things can be said…but havent. Someone needs to kick the ass pictured below to keep on this. So in All American fashion, technically I could blame you. Let me sleep on it.

Another month goes by and I didnt write shit. Well, that is going to have to change. Luckily I have plenty to write about. Its warming up and I cleaned out the garage/studio to get rolling on some shoots for RottenStar.com and Alhana’s site. Will have to post pics in the future. Lets see, we also brought on board three new models for RottenStar and are excited about that.  And thats about it for the small talk. Now for the dumb bitch of the week post.

Old PAK was at it again. Thursday she had to call in the police to investigate a vandalism case to her premise. Seems someone decided to play mailbox baseball and tip her trash can over at the end of her driveway. She naturally thought of me, I guess, when questioned and that means so much too me. Of course I didnt get questioned but I was told that she was having them dust for prints and wanted a camera put up. She said it to my source as if she was serious, and she probably was. Oy. Well I hate to burst your bubble, PAK, it wasnt me cause if I were to tip your trash container over, I would do the job right and roll your trailer house over. Ya’ll could use excersize so I would suggest haulin you ass down the driveway when its trash day and bring your big can out to the road and back. You see people, this is the kind of pathetic crap we deal with. Lazy, jeoleous, losers who depend on us to make their lives important. PAK, you are a funny little cunt, glad I could make your life exciting. No charge baby and I hope you get your bandits, because believe me, contrary to what you think, there are people who think you are scum around here and some of them talk to you every day. LOL.

2007 came and went with little fuss. Sure, there were a few hiccups and ripples in the water caused by a very select few, but thats the way of life. So what have I in store for 2008? Well, let me try to think on the fly and see what I can come up with, shall we.

Problematic people in my life will soon find out how troublesome I can be if they keep pushing my buttons. My New Years Resolution is to use idiotic and stupid people to further my goals in life and then kick their ass to the curb. Those that are of no use to me will be forgotten. Those forgotten but still feel they need to involve themselves where they are not welcome will find some very unkind troubles of their own. I will continue to update the PAK Attack here and there, cause quite frankly, it puts a smile on my face to know how bad life sucks for her. It is the sugar on my cereal. Besides, I need to tune my sadistic side a bit more for upcoming projects.

And projects we have. RottenStar.com is getting a serious overhaul and we will begin shooting again since we have slacked the last two months. Every model will have their own member page in which to help their fans find all their content on one page. Still keeping the price at $19.95/month for viewing all the girls, its just going to be more managed in presentation. SexyAlhana.com will get more of a darker feel as she is wanting to seperate her image from the same old stuff on SouthernCharms. And I will try to keep this blog going for as long as I can to entertain you till I come up with something else perverted and twisted for your viewing pleasure.

Thats about it in a nutshell. Its 2am in the fucking morning and I better get my ass to bed as I have a busy day ahead of me. Hope your New Years went peachy keen and until the next time.
