SECOND CHANCES,’ ‘TABU TALES,’ ‘MEET’ EARN BIG NOMS
New Sensations and Digital Sin are proud to receive a combined 48 nominations for the 2015 AVN Awards. The “Romance Series” scripted feature “Second Chances” and Digital Sin’s new “Tabu Tales” imprint lead the nominations with seven apiece, the latter dominating AVN’s newly created Best Taboo Relations category. Jacky St. James and Eddie Powell are nominated for Best Director – Feature for their collaboration on “Second Chances” and individually for Director of the Year.
As it does every year, New Sensations/Digital Sin produced a wide range of quality adult films, from plot-driven features and vignettes to all-sex releases and niche oriented titles, masterfully exploring provocative themes such as family-taboo and hotwifing. The studio’s diversity and creativity is reflected in its nominations.
“We’ve put out such a variety of films this year and it’s incredibly rewarding to see so many of them get nominated in their respective categories,” New Sensations/Digital Sin President Scott Taylor said. “New Sensations and Digital Sin takes great pride in the films we create, ensuring the best possible experience for our audience. We’re very grateful to AVN for the recognition.”
Jacky St. James said, “Receiving a Director of the Year – Body of Work nomination from AVN is truly the highlight of my career. Everyone on our production and post-production crew puts in so much time and effort into our films that this nomination is really for all of us. I’m overwhelmingly happy!”
St. James reunited with Powell this year for the romantic dramedy “Second Chances,” their first collaboration since “The Submission of Emma Marx.” In addition to the duo’s Best Director – Feature nomination, the film is up for Best Romance Movie, Best Screenplay (St. James), Best Editing, and a number of acting noms, including Best Actress for Carter Cruise.
St. James’ “The Sexual Liberation of Anna Lee” for New Sensations “Erotic Stories” shingle is also nominated in the categories for Best Romance Movie and Best Actress (Maddy O’Reilly). In addition, St. James is nominated for Best Director – Non-Feature for “Keep It In the Family,” one of three titles nommed from the “Tabu Tales” series for Best Taboo Relations; the other two being “Our Father” and “A Mother Daughter Thing.”
“I’m ecstatic to discover that AVN created a special, Best Taboo Relations, category this year, especially given the popularity of the genre this year,” St. James said. “Some of my best work has been in Digital Sin’s ‘Tabu Tales’ this year and I was overjoyed that several of those films received nominations.”
Powell’s “Laws of Love” for New Sensations’ “Romance Series” earned big noms in the categories for Best Romance Movie, Best Screenplay (Brownie Garcia), Best Cinematography, and Best Actress Romi Rain. Powell’s work for Digital Sin is also heavily represented and includes noms for “My Sister’s Tight Pussy” (Best Taboo Relations), “This Is My First… Gangbang” (Best Gangbang Release, Best Group Sex Scene), and “Meet Kelly Shibari” (Best Specialty Release – Other Genre).
This year saw the official launch of Digital Sin’s “Meet…” series, releasing three new volumes: “Meet Carter Cruise,” “Meet Dakota Skye,” and “Meet Kelly,” the first BBW star showcase to be produced by a major studio. In addition to “Meet Kelly’s” aforementioned nomination, “Meet Carter” and “Meet Dakota” are both nominated for Best Star Showcase and picked up noms for Best Double-Penetration Scene and Best Anal Sex Scene, respectively. “Meet Carter” also scored a Best Director – Non-Feature nomination for Paul Woodcrest.
New Sensations newly launched series “Tales From the Edge” also scored its first nomination with a Best Vignette nod to “I Love My Hotwife,” a sex-positive depiction of the hotwifing lifestyle, inspired by true accounts.
“A lot of passion and energy goes into each New Sensations release. Our AVN nominations are recognition of that, and we couldn’t be more pleased,” Eddie Powell said. “Thank you, AVN. Everyone at New Sensations was happy for the recognition.”
