Damon and Hunter: Doing It Together (Real People, Real Life, Real Sex series)

We filmed the Real People, Real Life, Real Sex erotic documentary DAMON & HUNTER: DOING IT TOGETHER in early 2006, as a follow up to our bestselling films MARIE & JACK: A HARDCORE LOVE STORY, and XANA & DAX: WHEN OPPOSITES ATTRACT. Peggy and I always knew that we wanted the series to feature love stories from a diverse selection of people, and after talking to Damon and Hunter in a series of pre-interviews over the course of several months, they seemed as intrigued by the idea of doing something "kind of anthropological" (as Hunter jokingly called it) as we were interested in capturing their story on film. As in the rest of our Real People, Real Life, Real Sex series of erotic documentaries, the first half of the film is an interview with Damon and Hunter: how they met, how they fell in love, and what they love about being in love. The second half of the film is a candid love scene, every bit as warm and intimate as the interview.

Damon and Hunter had been in a relationship for just over two years when we shot them. Both had some experience in the adult film industry, but they had never had the opportunity to just be themselves: to talk about their initial hesitation in moving their relationship from friends to committed lovers, to discuss frankly what they like about sex with one another, and what makes it special and different. Most importantly, they were free here to make love for the camera they way they wanted to, directed only by what they themselves wanted to have captured on film. They do use condoms normally, and the way it's incorporated into their lovemaking is both erotic and anticipation-building -- a terrific example of just how hot and connected safer sex can be.

DAMON & HUNTER: DOING IT TOGETHER also includes "Damon and Hunter: The Making of a Love Scene" behind-the-scenes featurette with commentary from Tony and Peggy Comstock.
