The News From Red Feline Pictures

[petelobo]

I follow this thread, so I've seen all the announcements of new films, rehearsals, etc. Some looked interesting, but Jac doesn't seem to be able to actually COMPLETE a film--and, of course, as the artiste, no-one else can edit, color correct, etc.

Just out of interest, can you provide us with a list of the films--big and small budget--that are currently in one stage or another? Which are awaiting post? What films have actually been released in the past 6-12 months?

Justine – Streaming Now!



In this artistic rendering of De Sade’s classic novel, Justine endures extreme torture and violation at the hands of the Marquis De Sade’s disciples of pain in a number of perverse practices illustrating that virtue is no match for vice.



You may think you know the story of De Sade’s JUSTINE. But not like this one.
Because this is Jac Avila’s JUSTINE: A shockingly erotic experience more sadistic than De Sade himself.

Meet innocent Justine: Beaten, bloody and naked— she’s locked in the stocks after 50 lashes and the abuse of many men. Now, she awaits execution for a crime she did not commit. Or, did she?

Come along with Justine on her deviant journey, as she escapes from prison with a band of thieves, only to be passed into the clutches of various depraved men, who torture and enslave her in bouts of sex and thrilling scandals at the hands of perverted aristocracy.



Until Justine is finally sold into the torture playground of the brutal and sadistic Rodin, who further violates her by inflicting hideous torture upon torture alongside his resigned daughter and reluctant but sex-crazed female servant.

Ultimately, everyone becomes a pawn in this sick and twisted game of cruelty, culminating in the ultimate savage sacrifice.

petelobo I follow this thread, so I’ve seen all the announcements of new films, rehearsals, etc. Some looked interesting, but Jac doesn’t seem to be able to actually COMPLETE a film–and, of course, as the artiste, no-one else can edit, color correct, etc.

Each film we make has its own requirements and pace, regardless of the budget. In the more than a quarter of a century of making movies, we released over 60 films, that’s more that 2 per year.

This year was particularly difficult for many reasons. Many personal issues to be resolved, changes in the way things are going everywhere, too long to go into details.

We are dealing with some demanding work. We began our streaming channel, which takes a lot of work and concentration and we’re not done yet. In addition there are negotiations going with a major distributor to widen the distribution of many of our films, including Pygmalion, Sirwiñakuy, Barbazul, Olalla and some others. That also takes a lot of out time because in order to meet the technical and legal requirements to enter into a deal we have to prepare all the assets and that takes a lot of work.

As we complete the tasks we loaded upon ourselves this year, we will be getting more films ready to launch them out in the world.

Just out of interest, can you provide us with a list of the films–big and small budget–that are currently in one stage or another? Which are awaiting post? What films have actually been released in the past 6-12 months?

One major film, that has a theatrical release in 2023, is under negotiation for major world release, along with films that were already released before, including Amy’s directorial debut Sirwiñakuy.

Our more recent releases are Seditiosa, in March, last year, we also released two Making of videos made during the production of Monxa Mala. We’re preparing the theatrical release of 69 Année Érotique by the end of this year.



There are many films in post production, the closer to reach release this year is Agent Honey Trap followed by CruXbound IV, with Simonne. One version will be the official release, another version will be released as a Making Of.

Other films in different stages of post production are Deep Cover Mole with Mila, CruX SimpleX with Dani and Mila, CruXbound III, with Dani, CruXtreme V, with Dani and Mila, CruXtreme VI – Callback II, with Ligia.

The production of CruXbound III, with Dani will be completed very soon, while, CruXbound I with Ligia and CruXbound II with Mila will be completed by the end of November.



We’re also working on the pre production of Crucified Four, we hope to produce it as soon as we have enough funds. We are preparing other films, the Big Production Values films, Maleficarum Excruciati and Aventura to be produced next year. Smaller or No Budget films in our plans are La Femme De Chambre, with Dani, a very sadistic version of La philosophie dans le boudoir is also in our plans, with Dani, Simonne, Ligia, Mila, and two other actresses.

Sure, one thing is to plan a bunch of productions, another is to get things done, our history shows that we do manage to work on most of our plans. Sometimes with three movies in a row, like when we did Barbazul, Maleficarum and Le Marquis de la Croix. All produced between December 2010 and March 2011.

A Time To Grieve



The month of October began with incredibly sad news. Rocky, Jac’s beloved dog, suddenly fell ill, he was diagnosed with Renal Insufficiency. He was treated for many days but his illness advanced until he couldn’t fight it anymore, so he crossed the rainbow bridge the afternoon of the 5th, two days before Jac’s birthday.

Jac was devastated, of course, Rocky was his loyal friend, companion in adventures, amazing walks for 8 years, and because of him Jac met and made many friends, including Geraldine, who appeared in Seditiosa, 69 Année Érotique and will play Paulina in Crucified Four.

Rocky was cremated and he now rests is in a little urn on top of Jac’s desk, near the monitor.



The family is very, very sad, so are all of Jac’s friends. The mixture of messages he received since then helped him, a lot. The night of the 7th he had an unexpected little birthday party, organized by his son, Erix, who invited some friends, mostly the actresses, who made him feel a lot better.

While he tried to deal with the tremendous loss, he was having a big problem with concentrating in the work, he went to a site he mistakenly joined when he was looking for some music, he was offered a service for 19 per month, but he was charged a whole year, 192, he was pissed. But he has access now so he decided to look at what it had to offer apart from music. There he found that he could generate videos, so he decided to give it a try. And lo and behold, he spent hours creating a bunch of videos inspired on his ideas for The Crucified Four.

[media/[/media]
Taia Steals Bread – the first test

So, on his birthday, he spent all day transfixed watching his ideas come to life with very annoying limitations by the system he was using.

The limitations were evident and frustrating. The most frustrating was the impossibility to generate videos with nudity.

After working a little to generate a clip of Taia, the runaway, slave stealing the bread, he realized that he could not bring the same exact character for the next clip, when she’s arrested. While he thought of what to do and figured out the how, he tested the system with a clip of a woman in a cage and this is what he got.


The caged warrior. Talissa?

Given the impossibilities of doing whatever he wanted, the way he wanted it and with all the nudity he could muster, he decided that making a film with AI was practically impossible with the means available to him, for now, but he thought that it could be a good way to illustrate his ideas in some sort of storyboard using AI to create shots, not complete scenes, only shots, 3 to 5 seconds long shots. Like the two shots above.

He played with that for hours, figuring out how to direct that thing call AI to come up with the shots he needed and wanted to somehow create a sequence, he had some altercations with AI sometimes, but he managed to get coarse that thing to generate some interesting visuals. In some cases what he manage to get was a big surprise to him, and sometimes the material had some funny and strange things, I defy you to notice the strange and funny thing in the next clip, but most of the time working with AI was completely annoying and frustrating, it required a lot of patience, the kind of patience a Buddhist might have. AI can be a very annoying beast.

He edited a little movie with some of the shots he managed to produced. He tried to get some shots of what he has in mind for the opening sequence of Crucified Four, where you meet the principal characters. Taia, the Slave, Talissa the warrior, Ide, the priestess, Paulina, the wife of the second in comand, Sabina, the empress and the Centurion. Again, I defy you to identify them. Although I don’t think the Centurion is in this clip.

This is the result.

Cruxlover24 Thanks fot the updates, Margot!!! What are the new films you’ll be working on once you finish this one with Danielle? Is she going to be in the next production?

We are still preparing Crucified Four; but as I mentioned before we have other productions in mind and Dani will take part in them all, except for the individual films with Ligia and Mila.
Mila is extremely busy these days. She contacted Jac to wish him a Happy Birthday and to express her sorrow for Jac’s terrible loss. They talked a bit and the impression Jac had was that she’s really, really busy and might not want to commit to work on a film, at least not right now.

In the possible event of having to cast someone else for the role of Ide, he’s thinking of some possibilities. He hopes he doesn’t have to.

Dani and Ligia are totally confirmed, Simonne has also confirmed but has limitations with her time. Geraldine, who will play Paulina is committed too.

The weather is awful right now, it hasn’t stopped raining and it’s cold. Jac says it looks like February. It should go back to the normal for the year soon, or maybe the climate change is really changing everything. Jac has a joke, we were in the middle of winter, then we had two days of spring, two days of summer and we’re back in winter but we February rain.

Our streaming channel is growing, both with films and subscribers.

We still have the three month deal for 25 bucks

All during the period when Amy was working with you. Thanks for the update on films in the funnel. Just a comment from someone who has produced films: You have a bunch of projects that are not demanding of high budgets, all stuck and unsure of when or if they'll be released. If a commitment was made to finish and release one of those a month, or a week, by completing post work, you'd definitely generate revenue. Finish them all before starting another project (I do get it that it's a hell of a lot more fun for Jac to play in the torture chamber than to sit alone at the editing bench).

You do a great job of promoting the projects as they are being dreamed up and shot, but I've pretty much stopped watching (except for saving off a nice image from time to time), but I don't really expect any more that I'll ever get to see the finished project.

I also get it that Jac is an artiste, so only he can do color correction, etc. in post, but since these are your quickies and surely there is someone who can do basic post work. Save Jac's post work for the big budget films you make (with the money earned by the quick-release ones.)

Olalla – Streaming Now!



The provocative film by Amy Hesketh, based in the story by Robert Louis Stevenson, OLALLA, tells the story of a gothic and decadent family of genetic vampires who need human blood to survive and prolong their lives, and where incest is the only way to maintain the family line. They don’t mix with the outside world and when they do the consequences can be disastrous.

The film centers in the avatars of Olalla, her daughters, Olalla and Ofelia and her brother Felipe. Olalla the mother and Olalla the daughter, both interpreted by Amy Hesketh, are somewhat fractious, they can’t control their impulses thus endangering the entire family.



Hesketh starts her story where Stevenson’s ends. A new guest arrives to the family’s hacienda starting a struggle for the attentions of Olalla between the newcomer and Felipe, the vampire’s brother. Olalla sinks deeply in her madness and unable to control her tenebrous instincts, first attacks Roberto, the guest, and soon after the village’s priest. That act is the last straw for the terrified villagers who storm the hacienda, capture Olalla, tying her to a cross, whipping her and burning her alive.



A century later, the surviving daughters, Olalla and Ofelia, genetic vampires who age very slowly, live isolated from the world around them, staying away from any danger. Olalla, seeking a normal life, moves away from her family, finds a lover, but can’t help herself from killing him, placing herself and her family in danger. Ofelia calls Uncle Felipe who attempts to teach a hard lesson to Olalla, punishing her for her transgressions. Will Felipe be able to control Olalla and thus save the family? Or will he eliminate her, as Ofelia insists?



Review: Vampires and blood, love and sexual tension, but wait, there’s also Mambo!

Amy Hesketh is the writer, director, and star of OLALLA, in which she has created a Vampire film like no other, because Olalla is a Vampire like no other. The movie thumbs its nose at almost every establishment Vampire tradition. No Danse Macabre for these Vampires. No. But there is Mambo! No sucking of blood from neat little puncture wounds on the throat. But there is chilled blood in the fridge sipped from fine crystal. Or, if you’re Olalla, the black sheep of the clan, you occasionally do it the old fashioned way, rip out the throats of your victims, and leave a bloody mess.



You don’t have to be a non-conformist Vampire to identify with Olalla. There’s a little Olalla in all of us. With its roots in a story by Robert Louis Stevenson (“Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde”), Olalla is portrayed with a sly undercurrent of self-deceptive innocence by Hesketh herself. She yearns to be an ordinary woman and go shopping, but she does not have “ordinary” in her blood. She tries but cannot long stand to pretend, like the rest of her family does, not even after the repeated encouragements of a skillfully applied riding crop, wielded by the family’s dedicated enforcer, Felipe, played with exquisite intensity by Jac Avila.

Felipe is convincingly and sympathetically portrayed in flashbacks as Avila’s younger self by Alejandro Loayza. He has worried about Olalla’s well-being, and that of his family, since childhood (these “genetic” Vampires age, but slowly). Felipe’s sense of responsibility for his family’s wellbeing is a heavy burden, especially considering what happened to Olalla’s mother (played in heart-wrenching flashbacks by Hesketh herself).



Olalla’s sister, Ofelia, cares about the family, too, and is fed up with her sister’s antics, endangering them all. Ofelia remembers all too well what happened to their mother. Mila Joya plays Ofelia as a playfully seductive predator, with a subtle undercurrent that made me wonder just how many throats she herself had ripped out, in secret.

Other fascinating characters include the family’s two uncles, played in synchronized precision by Beto Lopez and Fermin Nuñez, and then there is Erix Antoine’s unforgettable Bruno.

All in all, I recommend OLALLA for anyone who enjoys Vampire films that take you where Vampire films have never gone before. Plus, don’t forget, not only is there blood and Vampires in Olalla, there’s Mambo!

Am I correct in that you really do not have a full cast for the Crux 4 series?

You folks are looking for cash, but instead of finishing and releasing the Crux Bound episodes with Simonne which are supposed to be complete filming-wise, Jac is playing with AI.

Nothing wrong with setting up some ideas (except you are not going to have any crowd scenes), but a little focus on priorities.

The plan is to close the deal with the cast when we’re ready to commit to the project, and that will happen when we have enough resources to embark in the production without the risk of coming short and fail. At such time our director will get the commitment of all the actresses who will play the protagonists, with set dates, and so on. He will also cast for the rest of the characters. That’s the normal process.

In the meantime we are busy with our Stream Channel, adding films, working on the promotion and doing all the things needed to reach our high goals. It is very complicated work and it’s getting done … slowly, one step at a time.. one subscriber at a time, one film at a time. It is slowly growing, that’s why we have the Three Months For 25 bucks going until the end of this month.
https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/97ARF4Z35BQJ6

It’s something we will be doing for months and when we are done setting up all the films we have, we will continue with new stuff. There are a number of possibilities we’re considering to increase the number of films.


https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/97ARF4Z35BQJ6

Jac is working on the post production of many of our delayed projects. The last few weeks were very complicated, he had to work on two of our projects that are entering a deal to have a wider release and to accomplish that goal some of the requirements are to upgrade those films’s assets, Jac is working to meet the DIGITAL SOURCE SPECIFICATIONS. At least four of our films are getting that wider release.

He’s also working on the post of the films that were completed a while ago but the post productions was delayed for many reasons. He’s currently finishing Agent Honey Trap. But he’s also editing the CruXbound films with Simonne, the two of them.



AI is something new for us and we’re looking into possibilities of using it with live shooting. Like using some establishing shots with a lot of people and then having our footage integrated into that. It sounds difficult, specially with the limitations of the current AI apps or whatever they are.

We had an offer, after Jac got what he’s using now, for an AI generating app that apparently can be used to have consistent characters and locations for different clips. That sounds great, but he won’t put the money down before testing it.

bulbe good i see you manage hailuoai.video well !!!
Nice work !!

It’s not hailuoai.video, it’s a different AI app. Different company. It’s worth exploring for the potential AI has, however, nothing replaces the amazing work we do with our people, the amazing actresses, the actors, the crews… all of it. Jac spent a few hours one afternoon producing a bunch of clips with different characters, using AI, it was a good distraction for him, to keep his mind away from the pain of losing Rocky, he might put together a longer clip with all the material he got to show what it does, maybe.

Jac is also finishing the film with Dani, probably this week, and he’ll jump into the one with Ligia. That’s the work for now.



That’s it for now, info coming soon.
