Falcon|NakedSword president and CEO Tim Valenti is setting his sights on the European market with an increasingly ambitious game plan. He notes that while the gay studio has risen high as a proud American brand for decades, it has seen its global audience broaden, especially in the last four years.
“Europe has been one of the key markets in that growth,” Valenti states. “In addition to being home to some of the best business partnerships we have, Europe has an extraordinary talent pool, not to mention so many stunning locations and possibilities for adventure. The Falcon|NakedSword audience still consists of a strong American domestic base, but they want to see the world and all the beautifully sexy men in it.”
To have such a big studio behind me, and one that will let me use not only my performing talent but my creative talent, is amazing.
The studio’s world-traveling series “Global Entry” has exemplified its international aims, with a variety of exotic locales and casting.
“Europe is amazing, as are all the continents on our precious planet, and you’ll find Falcon|NakedSword producing the best content across all of them,” Valenti says. “North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia and Oceania have all played host to our stunning productions.”
Then, with a wry grin, Valenti jests, “Next stop? Antarctica! And the milestone after that? The moon.”
As part of the company’s expansion across the pond, Valenti has signed Sir Peter for a new production venture, with noted director Alter Sin also spearheading the effort.
“Sir Peter is the real deal — authentic to the bone and sexy as hell — and Alter Sin is magic,” Valenti declares.
Sin shares that he recently completed production on a romantic dramedy, which he is eager for fans to see.
“Shot entirely in Barcelona and Southern Spain, the narrative feature boasts a beautiful cast of international men, including the amazing Sir Peter, and a screenplay by Ben Rush,” Sin says. “Ben and I co-directed the movie and were lucky to have access to some really fun and interesting locations.
Sin praises Falcon|NakedSword’s dedication to innovation and fresh concepts, and says his “fantastic experiences” working with the studio in the past have him looking forward to future projects.
“Expanding my relationship with such a revered and iconic brand is a no-brainer,” he affirms. “One of the projects I can’t wait to bring to life is a personal, autobiographical film starring Sir Peter that will delve into his kinkier desires. He’s a uniquely gifted performer who is not afraid to be vulnerable. Audiences are going to see one of their favorites like they never have before!”
Sir Peter, of course, is no stranger to the lens or to working with storied gay studios. Discussing his experience thus far, he counts himself very fortunate to have had a wealth of what he describes as fantastic experiences in the gay adult industry.
“I can now look back on my body of work and say, ‘I’m proud of all I’ve done!’” he reflects. “But I wanted to open a new chapter because everything I’ve done until this point was just the start. And Falcon|NakedSword is a world-class brand that, in my opinion, has the top distribution and marketing platforms, not to mention award-winning filmmakers and producers. So it’s the perfect marriage!
“It’s also a huge show of trust,” he adds. “They’re saying, ‘We believe in you, and we think you have a unique and creative vision for the future of porn.’ It’s a chance to put my creative hat on and bring my own visions and fantasies to international and US fans. To have such a big studio behind me, and one that will let me use not only my performing talent but my creative talent, is amazing.”
A recent project he directed and produced for NakedSword.com, Sir Peter notes, offers viewers a raw, personal look into his sex life in Spain.
“It’s the first of a series of projects I’ll be producing for the company, in what I hope will be a very long relationship,” he explains, adding that he is also looking forward to headlining a variety of other special projects and narrative features in the coming year, some of which will be shot in Europe.
“There’s so much in store for fans!” he teases. “I recently wrapped a big, splashy rom-com in Barcelona with Ben Rush and Alter Sin as well as a really fun all-sex movie directed by Trenton Ducati and Ryan Brian for Hot House. I can’t show all my cards, but there may also be some new footage from Miami coming up this year. Know of any events happening there this summer?”
At the event in question, XBIZ Miami, Sir Peter plans to have a blast while forging new business connections.
“From the beaches of Torremolinos to the beaches of South Florida, May is shaping up to be a wild month for me,” he says. “I love being able to mix with other creators, performers and executives, and also have some play time.”
Eyeing the future, Sir Peter shares that as he matures, both personally and professionally, he is grateful to have a studio partner that is such a trendsetter with a proven track record.
“I’m always continuing to explore my sexuality, and I discover new parts of myself all the time,” Sir Peter says. “For example, I know the pleasures of topping and bottoming; I don’t think you can be a great top without knowing what it’s like to be on the receiving end. I’m also getting more and more into the rush that comes from kinkier sex. I definitely plan to open myself up to new experiences — and I want Falcon|NakedSword with me every step of the way!”
