LOS ANGELES — Bellesa Films and director Jacky St. James have launched a new studio imprint, Bellesa House, with an innovative approach to pairing performers.
Bellesa CEO Michelle Shnaidman expressed excitement about the new venture and noted that it has generated buzz from within the industry and from mainstream press, following St. James' recent tweet about the studio’s launch.
“Do you want to pick your own talent and have an epic time on set? Well, you can,” the director wrote of the studio’s launch. She explained that Bellesa House is all about the performers, with plans for a monthly public casting call with a twist.
“You tell us who you want to have sex with and why and we book you with that person (or people)," she said. "You will have sex your way and then you all go home paid and pleasured.”
As with many things that might seem too good to be true, there’s a catch, which St. James was quick to point out.
“You have to really want to have sex with that person. We want to see something real,” she revealed. “We’ll book you with whoever, whenever, however many — there are no limits.”
The studio’s “no” list is brief: No sex stills, no softcore, no dialogue, no hair or makeup and no long shoot days.
To be considered, prospective performers must email bellesahouse@gmail.com with their request to shoot and include the name(s) of the talent they want to work with and why.
