Thanks for stopping by to read information I have
written out on my plans for producing adult videos. I'm currently
seeking investors and business partners, and helpers to see me (us)
to success. I plan to produce in Los Angeles, that's were my base is.
Miami, is a possibility. However, I will strongly consider New York.
New York, seems to have the majority of the type of talent I'm
seeking for these videos. I'm seeking help from these two markets.
Naturally, I don't expect to do investment or partner business over
the internet, these matters will be handled in person. Interested
parties should e-mail me for more details. Paulo.

Preliminary movement for marketing and selling
Series Videos, If I market and sell.
Most major urban metropolitan regions have some
sort of outlets that sell or rent adult entertainment videos.
Research have shown that markets such as Washington, DC, New York
city and Atlanta have a large audience for 'Urban Male'
videos.
Example: Washington,DC, which has a large non
white male population with higher
education and a decent disposable income. Several
entertainment venues
that cater specifically to them. Two known video
chains, 'Capital Video' and
'Washington video' carrying adult videos. Both
chains have at least 4 stores
each in the Washington, DC proper area. Each of
it's stores will carrying at
least 3 to 4 of a specific 'Urban Male' title for
rental and at least 3 for sell. The
lowest numbers will give us 16 units per of the
two chains. If tapes are sold to
the outlets for a wholesale price of $20 U.S.
dollars, that's $320.00 per chain.
(lowest-numbers). Several independent video stores
cover the Washington,
DC area, which has a population of 6 million
people.
Metropolitan areas in which we can expect strong
sells online and to video outlets are:
Philadelphia, NY-NJ, Atlanta, Detroit, Chicago,
Los Angeles, San Francisco-San Jose,- Cleveland, Boston and
Minneapolis. Some southern states and cities are exempt due to
federal law that prohibits the sell of adult videos.
We can expect an average of $5000.00 to the sell
of video outlets. ($20.00 per video).
No numbers as of yet for international sells
online or via outlets.

Preliminary movement for marketing and selling
Series Videos, If I market and sell.
1 Internet marketing and selling: A specific page
will be established on the up
coming 'Urban Male' website show casing the
varies videos and giving ordering
information.
Photo stills and information on performers.
Posters, 'T' shirts and ball caps with the-
'Urban Male' logo and or the logo of the
present
show case video will be online for sell.
Video information, reviews and links to
the-
'Urban Male' website will be posted on
varies
websites associated with adult
entertainment.
Begin online discussion and chatrooms on
the
videos.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 Basic marketing and selling: Buying advertising
space in local and national-
adult entertainment weekly and monthly-
publications. Selling tapes to varies video
outlet
stores and chains that provide adult
entertainment.
Most video outlets do some sort of advertising
of
their stock, specifically of new items. This will
give
'Urban Male' free press of it's videos.
Sponsored events at adult entertainment clubs
and
bars, show casing the videos and
performers.
Mailing out tapes to video critics and major
adult
performers who have influence in the community-
and who can spread the word on 'Urban
Male'-
videos.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Filming, post and pre-production.
All 'Urban Male' videos will be filmed (taped)
with 'Hi 8' mm and 'digital 8' mm cameras to ensure the highest
quality possible. As finances permit, 'Sony' 1 inch and a quarter
broadcast cameras and equipment will be used. All videos will be
professionally shot, blocked and staged, backed by my years of
experienced. Every detail will be measured and taken care of
including sets, locations, wardrobe, scripts, art direction,
lighting, grooming of performers and dialogue.
Videos will be professionally edit on a Macintosh
workstation, this will give us the chance to add any enhancements and
special effects to the videos. Posters, video boxes and print layouts
will be done in house. We have access to 3 Macintosh workstations,
and professional photography equipment. Most tape dubbing from the
master edit and printing for the video boxes and other print material
will be commissioned out to a second party.
4 scripts are in the works:
1 'CarJacks', about a group of young thugs who
take a car for a joy ride and encounter-
the many escapades of the car's owner and his
friends sexual adventures.
2 'A Dawgs Life', (this is basically a continuance
from 'CarJacks'). More of a
documentary on the life and style of hardcore
thugs, living the life of a
'Dawg'. We take a look at what they wear, how they
act, talk, where
they hang out and how they 'hit it' (dawg slang
for having sex) with
one another.
3 'Madd Flava', about a hip hop record producer
and his partner. The two encounter
the many fine young men who will do most any thing
for a #1 on -
'Billboards' hot 100. (this video will be shot
like a behind the scenes
documentary).
4 'Madd Flava 2', about a young man who's so
obsessed with the current R&B
heartthrob that he wishes this new music sensation
into his fantasies.
R&B's newest sensation magically emerges from
a poster on the
wall and all sexual hell breaks lose.
Urban Male videos will be made to showcase the
talent and sexual adventures of young men for men who enjoy the
exotic allure of men of color.
(Great talent and fine men come in all ethnic
groups, and Urban Male will cast the best young men available no
matter his ethnic background or race).
