Ireland's Slut Werkz: Part 2

LOS ANGELES — Kylie Ireland doesn’t need no stinking rules.
On the set of her first project as director for her new production company, SlutWerkz, Ireland told XFANZ that she wants to use rule-breaking to help aspiring female directors of all stripes break one of the adult industry’s silent rules: Only men really direct porn.
To be sure, plenty of women have moved behind the camera with success, but Ireland said that in many cases, the women are merely figureheads -- hot babes who sell a bunch of DVDs whether their picture is on the cover or their name is above the title.
Ireland will brook none of that nonsense at SlutWerkz, where she promises to provide hardcore action made by women for men, with the emphasis on “by women.”
"They need to know and own their ideas, and they have to have a vision," Ireland said. "But the most important thing is that the girl has to direct it. It can't be a 'me and my boyfriend' thing. The girl will do all the work." That work will include having a hand in the casting and editing of their movies, as well as helping promote the titles with signings and appearances. In addition, most directors will perform in their own movies.
But what rules will Ireland break?
First, she’ll break the rules that spurred her to start SlutWerkz in the first place. Ireland’s movies are demolition derbies of domination, submission, latex, chains, buttplugs, fisting and forceps. Ireland’s own home is a BDSM gymnasium with a swanky loft apartment at its periphery. A former warehouse located in a part of downtown Los Angeles that gets dodgier as the sun sets, its interior is filled with exposed wood columns dotted with hook-holds for chains. A red medical chair sits next to a rack full of bondage whips, paddles, masks and gloves. Upon further examination, the red chair also includes a smaller bench where a partner can easily perform cunnilingus. A good portion of that gear should make it into this first SlutWerkz title, Submitted for Your Approval.

Note from Kylie: This section of the story makes it seem like I wll only be shooting bondage and fetish themed titles but I assure you it's not true I have other lines planned for my movies (as a director) including an anal series, a series featuring tattooed girls and many others. For my first release, 'Submitted for You Approval' I just went with the traditionally taboo bondage/fetish genre since I enjoy it, it will have some shock value and I enjoyed making 'Twisted as Fuck' (DVSX) so I thought I would do something similar - only 'Submitted' is a much harder movie than 'Twisted' ever was (due to the fact that DVSX made me cut alot of great nasty footage!)
