CURATE/COMMISSION
BRING OUR FILMS TO YOUR EVENT or FESTIVAL,
OR COMMISSION AN ORIGINAL PROJECT!
Our supporters are our partners in expanding our future vision of the queer porn genre and make our continued innovation and exploration possible.
Curate AORTA’s Films
We love sending our films to festivals and screenings around the world!
If you’d like to curate any of our films for your event, please email our Studio Manager Avery Jaye to set it up. Please let us know the date and location of your event, the film(s) you’d like to screen, and whether it’s a ticketed event. We use a flexible sliding scale for our screening fees, and are always happy to figure out a way to share our content with your viewers!
Book Mahx As a Speaker
Our Creative Director Mahx Capacity loves getting to talk about porn, and is a great addition to any panel, conversation, podcast, or conference! We have a range of pre-fabricated talks, or are always happy to create something new. We love speaking about topics including: making ethical/feminist porn, the pornmaking creative process, the gentrification of pleasure, trends in sextech, trends in indie porn, and more!
Please see our talks page for past engagements, and please reach out to Mahx directly and share what sort of engagement you’re looking for.
BOOK A WORKSHOP OR PERFORMANCE
We love getting to present workshops and live performances. We have a few existing signature workshops–see our workshops tab for more info–and are also open to teaching workshops about topics in which we have experience, including but not limited to: consent & negotiation, explicit filmmaking, and more! Coming soon, we’ll announce our first live evening-length performance offering, “Hey Everybody: Let’s Make A Porno!”
Please reach out to Mahx directly to start a conversation!
HIRE US FOR COMMERCIAL PROJECTS
AORTA films occasionally takes on commercial projects that utilize our experience as queer porn makers in a commercial context through our commercial brand AORTAx. Past projects have included music videos, public sexual health documentaries, and producing for film shoots with erotic content. Please find more about AORTAx here, and use the interest form on that page to apply.
COMMISSION A FILM OR PROJECT
We are always looking for commissioning partners for our next big project! If you’re interested in becoming a commissioner, executive producer, or associate producer on any of our films or larger projects, please reach out to Mahx directly. We would love to partner with arts organizations, individuals, or brands to bring our next vision to life, and would love to hear more about how a commission might be mutually supportive to your needs and mission. Let’s vision together!
HIRE US as a CURATOR
We also love getting to work as curators! If you’re interested in hiring us to put together a queer and/or indie porn program for your festival or event, please reach out to Mahx to start a conversation. We are happy to curate around a specific content or identity-based focus, or also love getting to create programs that introduce viewers to the wealth of amazing indie porn being created at this moment.
