LIGHTS, CAMERA
NOMAD ON THE MOVE
Website network enters DVD/VOD market with VIP Digital
scenes per DVD on the extreme hardcore. Gloryhole Secrets, GangbangCreampie
and PortaGloryhole will be two scenes per DVD plus behind-the-scenes, and we
did some unique interviews. For the gangbang site, we take the girls out to a bar
and we actually do our interview in a bar, so you get to know them a little bit,
and there’s no kids in the background—that’s why we do it in a bar—and it’s
kind of unique because there’s some public nudity, you know; they’ll flash their
boobs or we’ll film up their skirt, and then from there, the interview part flows
into our trip back to the studio, so we shoot like road head and the girls naked in
the back seat of the car, so it lets us get to know their personalities. We try to get
them laughing and just being goofy.”
As for the web content, the Azianis believe in “shopping local” whenever they
can.
“For the Gloryhole sites, everyone’s amateur; the girls sometimes are
professionals but the guys are amateurs,” Buzz Aziani explained. “With the
gangbang sites, the girls are usually newbies, new girls just getting into the
business, and we get some seasoned ones, some MILFs too, so it varies, but
all the guys for the gangbang site only shoot for the gangbang site, but they’re
regular guys. We have a baseball player, a real estate agent, a nurse—the way
it works is, we start them out in the gloryhole. If they succeed in slipping their
dick through the hole, then we see if they want to go do a gangbang, so we test
them there, and if they perform, then we kind of promote them to the gangbang
sites, and we call those guys the cocksmen.

Arizona-based Nomad Media has been offering adult fare on the web since 2005,
when Nomad owners Buzz and Rachel Aziani began paying girls to masturbate
on their flagship site Aziani.com. In 2012, they expanded the company, adding
AzianiIron.com to the mix, focusing on women who are into fitness and
bodybuilding—and who again had no problem getting off solo and occasionally via
Growth has been constant since then, with the company inaugurating the websites
GloryholeSecrets in 2014, GangbangCreampie in 2015, and PortaGloryHole in 2016.
“GangbangCreampie, that one’s pretty self-explanatory: multi guys and creampies,”
explained Buzz Aziani. “And we do another one called GloryholeSecrets, which is
an anonymous gloryhole; it’s mainly blowjob/swallow. And the final one is called
PortaGloryHole, and that one is two portapotties hooked together, and it’s public
blowjobs in a public gloryhole, basically. We send the portapotties out everywhere
and the girls go in and the guys go in and it’s anonymous as well, so the guys stick
their dicks through the hole and get blowjobs in a Fry’s parking lot or wherever.”
Of course, having made new material weekly for so many websites for so many
years meant that the Azianis had built up a wealth of XXX material—and fortunately
for them, VIP Digital Media, a new division of VIP Services, and ace salesman David
Peskin were on hand to help the company better monetize its product.
“Taking this next step with our membership site network had been something we
had considered for some time,” the Azianis said in a joint statement. “We just hadn’t
found what we felt was the right fit and vision for our content. David’s extensive
sales experience and enthusiasm for our product, along with the entire team at VIP,
made the decision easy for us. The future looks bright as we combine our efforts with
VIP Digital Media, working together to build our brand.”
Peskin, of course, is the well-known industry salesman, having worked for many
years for Vivid Entertainment, Club Jenna and Teravision, getting their DVDs into
stores—but now he’s tackling one of the bigger challenges of his career.
“The deal encompasses Buzz and Rachel’s six membership site network, which
includes GangbangCreampie.com, and the first title we’ll be releasing on DVD
from that site is titled Fuck ’Em, Fill ’Em and Feed ’Em, starring Anissa Kate and Sarah
Vandella. That’ll be released during the first week of February,” Peskin detailed. “The
second website, GloryholeSecrets.com, our first title from there is called Rachele Vs
Bashka: 39 Cumshots, which will also be released the first week of February. Then we
have PortaGloryHole.com, and our first title from them will be Real Public Glory Holes,
released the second week in February. These first three sites, the artwork for the
DVDs is already finished, and some of our key distributors love the artwork and are
real excited to sell this product to their customers.
“We’re finishing artwork on the fourth website, which is POVTrain.com, and the
first title will be POV Wars 1. We’re working on the artwork there,” Peskin continued.
“And then Aziani.com is all created by Rachel Aziani, and it’s funny because I
actually found this site back in 2005 while I was at Vivid, and I was a huge fan of this
site for many years. The first title, Sybian Xxxtasy, will also be released in February.
And the last website, AzianiIron.com, which features FBBs, female bodybuilders and
fitness models, also overseen by Rachel Aziani, the DVD from there will be Aziani’s
Iron Girls, which will be also be released in February.”
“We’re probably going to do one DVD for each site per month,” Buzz Aziani said.
“We might do more; we’ve got a lot of content from Aziani and AzianiIron, and even
GloryholeSecrets has 200 scenes, so that’s quite a few DVDs. Most DVDs, what do
they run? About 160 minutes? Most of our scenes probably average 45 minutes to an
hour, just the action part of it on Gloryholes, so our launch is going to go out at two

‘ALL THE GIRLS SEEM TO DIG
THE PUBLIC NUDITY. WE
TAILOR EACH SCENE OFF
THE GIRL’S PERSONALITY.’
—BUZZ AZIANI, NOMAD MEDIA
“The main reason I use regular guys or amateur guys is, we don’t do any
staged pop shots,” he added. “There’s no time in-between where they can kind
of jerk off and then go. The pop shots are all natural. It’s uncut.”
And as for the women?
“The crazy thing is, all the girls seem to dig the public nudity,” Aziani
observed. “We try to tailor each scene off the girl’s personality, so it’s not like,
‘Okay, this is what we’re going to do.’ We do similar things every week, but we
still base it off of—you know, some girls are crazier, more exhibitionist and some
are more reserved, so we kind of let it flow from there. The scene is always very
similar, with the multiple guys and the creampies, but the personality comes in
at the beginning with the interviews, and at the end with the behind-the-scenes
stuff.”
But DVDs are only one part of the deal.
“VIP Digital Media, which is a new distribution company, has secured a
distribution deal with Nomad Media, Inc., to offer for the first time Nomad’s
100 percent exclusive content on DVD, VOD, broadcast and licensing,” Peskin
added. “It’s a one-of-a-kind arrangement, plus it’s a salesman’s and brick-and-
mortar and online retailer’s dream come true to offer this product to their
customers.”
One of the reasons the Azianis are happy with the arrangement is because of
Buzz’s own long history in retail sales.
“When I got in the business in 1999, I sold VHS,” Buzz stated. “Then we
moved to DVD, and the internet came along and took all of it away, it seems
like, so Rachel and I decided that we were going to stick with the internet.
But then, after looking around, I saw that DVDs still sell, and the really crazy
thing is, the hipster group, they’re starting to buy albums again; they want
vinyl. These people like tangible things. Now, I’m pretty much an internet guy,
so I forget that people actually like to have a collection that they can actually
physically hold. So that’s one of the things that sold me on this deal. Dave and
[VIP Services CEO] Lynton, they’re great guys; they explained a lot to me, so
they were very helpful.”
