Prestigious “Oyster Award” Goes to Good Releasing for Explicit-Ed Excellence

San Francisco, CA — (July 7, 2011):  Good Releasing was recently honored by PorYes, the Feminist Porn Award in Europe for its explicit-education film, Gush: The Official Guide to the G-Spot & Female Ejaculation.

The famed “Oyster Award” will be presented on October 15th in Berlin, Germany to films that exemplify the principles of feminist porn.  PorYes was founded by Sexclusivitaeten, the first women-oriented sex enterprise and sexual communication centre in Europe, together with the Freudenfluss network, with the goal of supporting positive sexual images that empower and excite women.  Their criteria includes the portrayal of authentic female pleasure, ethical work conditions, the inclusion of diverse bodies and genders, and the participation of women in the production of the film as producers, directors, or camerawomen.

Female-directed and penned and hosted by Good Vibrations’ Staff Sexologist Dr. Carol Queen, Gush features real-life couples, adult stars, and first-time performers in intimate explicit settings.  With intense chemistry and communication, the Pleasure-Ed Series doesn’t just describe how to have better sex, it shows it too.  Nominated for the 2010 AVN “Best New Video Production Company” Award, Good Releasing offers its diverse line of educational films including Heads Up: the Official Guide to Fellatio, and Going Down: the Official Guide to Cunnilingus.

The third film in the Pleasure-Ed series of explicit sex education movies penned and hosted by Staff Sexologist Dr. Carol Queen; Gush features high production values and genuine enthusiasm.  This high-quality feature runs 90 minutes and combines crucial information with searing sex scenes that help the viewer find their own sexual style and enjoy it with confidence.  Directed and edited by Jackie Strano and Shar Rednour of S.I.R. Productions, Gush is lauded for its fine aesthetic sense.

Nominated for 2010 AVN Awards’ “Best New Video Production Company”, Good Releasing offers various lines of edgy, alternative, and educational films that provide a exciting option for people looking for original alternatives to mainstream porn.  Representing independent artists creating authentic and diverse erotic content, Good Releasing presents three video production lines, “Reel Queer Productions,” “HeartCore Films” and the “Pleasure-Ed Series.”  The company also distributes Blue Artichoke’s Matinee, and is the North American distributor for Pink & White Production‘s award-winning titles.

New Line of Erotic Films Receives Highest Honors from Sex-Positive Porn Awards

San Francisco, CA — (March 17, 2011): Good Vibrations (goodvibes.com), the legendary San Francisco-based company that takes pride in providing accurate information on sexuality and toys for grown-ups, is proud to announce the that its sister company, Good Releasing, was recently nominated for ten Feminist Porn Awards in Toronto for its films.

The nominees are: “Billy Castro Does the Mission” (Reel Queer Productions); “Ciao Bella: A Woman’s POV” (Reel Queer Productions); “Femmetastic” (Reel Queer Productions); “Heads Up: The Official Guide to Fellatio” (Pleasure-Ed); “Roulette Toronto” (Reel Queer Productions); “Seven Minutes in Heaven: Fuck Yeah!” (Reel Queer Productions); “Tight Places: A Drop of Color” (Reel Queer Productions); “Pregnant with Desire” (HeartCore Films) and “My Own Master” (HeartCore Films) were also nominated.  Good Releasing Distributes “Crash Pad Series Volume 6: Wide Open” (Pink & White Productions) which was also nominated.

Nominated for the 2010 AVN “Best New Video Production Company” Award, Good Vibrations’ sister company Good Releasing offers various lines of edgy, alternative, and educational films that provide a exciting option for people looking for original alternatives to mainstream porn.  Representing independent artists creating authentic and diverse erotic content, Good Releasing presents three video production lines, “Reel Queer Productions,” “HeartCore Films” and the “Pleasure-Ed Series.”

Started in 2006, The Feminist Porn Awards are produced by Good For Her, a Toronto, Canada based feminist sexuality education centre and sex store.  This event was started when Good For Her realized it wasn’t enough to criticize adult films for not adequately representing women’s – and in many cases, men’s – sexuality.  The Feminist Porn Awards were created with the goals of celebrating ethical, feminist porn, exposing this work to a larger audience, and creating community amongst filmmakers, performers and audience members.  Since starting the Feminist Porn Awards, Good For Her has handed out over 70 awards to movies, short films, websites, directors, heartthrobs, boundary breakers and visionaries, while shining a light on the astoundingly sexy work of these feminist artists and filmmakers.

As porn star and performance artist Annie Sprinkle famously said, “The answer to bad porn isn’t no porn…it’s to try and make better porn!”

Good Releasing offers various educational films through its Pleasure-Ed line featuring such topics as fellatio, cunnilingus, and the much-anticipated, soon to be released film “Gush: The Official Guide to the G-Spot and Female Ejaculation.”  In addition, Good Releasing features two other lines: HeartCore Films (edgy, creative erotic films primarily for heterosexual and bisexual audiences) and Reel Queer Productions (LGBTQ offerings). These two lines won three awards at last year’s 2010 Feminist Porn Awards.

Reviews

“Basically, this is awesome, you should buy it, and then you should spend an evening in either on your own or with your partner and find your G-Spot and figure out how to ejaculate. Or, if you know how to do that, do it again while watching other women do it. Or buy it for all your friends who are always like, “Where’s my G-Spot? How do I have great orgasms like you?”
- Sailor Ripley, Fleshbot.com

“Perfect for couples.”
- Bambi Hotchkiss, XBIZ Premiere

“If it’s anyone in the world we’d expect to know all about this – and to make a video on the subject – it’s Queen and Good Vibes.”
-Keith Bowers, SF Weekly

“Like Nessie and multiple orgasms, female ejaculation has always had a mystic reputation. Can women really shoot it like the boys? Does it matter? Yes, yes, and oh yes. Start taking notes on when and how with Good Vibrations’ newest instructional release, GUSH: The Official Guide to the G-spot and Female Ejaculation.”
-Amber Schadewald, San Francisco Bay Guardian

“As I would expect from a film made by Good Vibrations, the people featured in the film are diverse in body size, gender, gender of partners and ethnicity. Gush: The Official Guide to the G-Spot and Female Ejaculation is an excellent sexual education tool. Everyone should learn more about the G-Spot and female ejaculation and this video is a great place to start. I especially liked the extras.”
-Kathy Belge, Lesbian life on About.com
