B. Skow to Direct Existing Lines & New, High-End Features

June 25, 2012 --- CHATSWORTH, Calif. --- Girlfriends Films is proud to announce the addition of acclaimed filmmaker B. Skow to its team. B. Skow will direct existing Girlfriends Films lines, as well as new, high-end lesbian features. B. Skow’s first projects include new volumes of bestselling series “Women Seeking Women,” “Lesbian PsychoDramas,” and “Net Skirts.”

“I’ve always been impressed with Girlfriends Films’ content, business practices, and industry involvement,” says B. Skow. “After meeting Dan O’Connell, Moose, and the rest of the staff, I can see why the company has such a positive reputation. I feel like I’ve found a new home.”

“I’m extremely excited to begin creating new volumes of Girlfriends Films’ awarded series, like ‘Women Seeking Women,’” continues B. Skow. “It will be a fun challenge to stay true to the core of the series, which consumers love, while adding my own touches as a filmmaker.”

Quite familiar with awards himself, B. Skow has earned an impressively diverse number of nominations from AVN and XBIZ, including Best Director and Best Screenplay, as well as noms in categories including blockbuster features, amateur, gonzo, parodies, and vignettes. AVN has presented B. Skow’s movies with awards for Best Three-Way Sex Scene, Best Celebrity Sex Tape, Best Pro-Am Series, and Best Pro-Am Release.

Bringing B. Skow aboard provides Girlfriends Films with another proven director in addition to owner and filmmaker Dan O’Connell. “B. Skow is a perfect fit with Girlfriends Films,” states Dan O’Connell. “He is able to compliment our vision and style, while bringing his own fresh ideas, cinematic skills and aptitude, and knowledge of performers to our sets. The result will be added value for Girlfriends Films’ consumers.”

O’Connell continues, “After many meetings with B. Skow, Moose and I have come to whole-heartedly trust him to capture everything our fans love best about Girlfriends Films’ movies – his enthusiasm truly matches our own. Even though B. Skow has come on, these movies are my passion, and I will be shooting my own movies at the same pace as in the past.”

About B. Skow:
While B. Skow spent the past ten years as a major force in adult entertainment, his first ten years was spent creating award-winning ad campaigns as one of the most accomplished commercial and fashion photographers in LA. In 1992, at the age of 21, Skow moved to Los Angeles and landed a photographer’s assistant job on a box cover shoot for Vivid. Though he only caught glimpses of the glamorous shoot, it was enough to change his life. He worked his way up the entertainment industry ladder, and began shooting Hollywood celebrities like Pamela Anderson, as well as covers and layouts for Hustler, Club, Playboy, Genesis, Rockstar, and more. By 1994, he was back with Vivid photographing box covers, layouts, and advertisements. With years of experience under his belt, Skow began directing movies in 2005. He has been nominated multi-ple times by AVN and XBIZ for Best Director and Best Screenplay, and many of his movies over a wide array of genres, including blockbuster “The Condemned,” have all received AVN awards. Skow’s success in every major adult genre helped earn Vivid the 2010 XCritic.com award for Studio of the Year. The famed director’s new studio, Skow Digital, offers him full creative control and ownership over all his content, from story-driven features to gonzo, vi-gnettes, and niche porn.
