With the new year already upon us, we thought we would give you some insights on what we have planned for 2011. So here, in no particular order, are some of the things we hope to get done in 2011:
– Get the new section of video shorts up & running on the Bondage Warehouse site. These videos will be all new, original productions approximately 5 to 10 minutes long. They will be either short stories or themed based videos 1 or 2 scenes in length. We already have the first 12 videos edited, so the new section should be up and running in a few weeks.
– Add all of the full length videos currently available on DVD to the Bondage Warehouse site. These videos have all been encoded so it is just a matter of adding them to the catalogue. This should hopefully be done in the next few weeks.
– Start to add some of the currenly unavailable videos to the Bondage Warehouse site. We haven’t decided on which of the old videos to bring back, so we can’t say which ones will be released at this point. We haven’t started the process of trying to digitize the old analogue tapes, so we really can’t say how long this will take. Hopefully we will be able to add 1 or 2 old video every few weeks starting sometime in the middle of this year.
– Release the 2007 photo membership compilation CD. We are almost done with this project, just need the time to finish it.
– Continue adding our old photo sets to the Bondage Warehouse site. Our plan is to have all photo sets released from January 2007 forward available for individual download. Older sets will be available on the compilation CDs (which are also currently available for download). Once we have all our old material on the Bondage Warehouse site, there will be approximately a 2 year gap from when a photo set first appears in the new photo section till it appears on the Bondage Warehouse site.
– Get the new Willingly Helpless site open. This should happen in the next few months – hopefully before May. We have worked with 7 models so far and edited the content (both photos & videos) for 4 of them. We still need to finish the site design and edit the content for the other 3 models. If the site goes well, schedule some more models for the site! – LOL
– Shoot and release more storyline videos for release on DVD and as full length download on the Bondage Warehouse site. For the last few years, we have been releasing a new video every other month (more or less). We will continue with that schedule for the first part of 2011 as we currently have only 2 finished videos and 2 in the works. Our hope is that by June or July of this year to be releasing a new video every month.
– We are currently shooting all new video in HD. We are debating whether or not to release new DVDs on Blu-ray disks. We currently do not have the equipment to mass produce Blu-ray disks, so unless the demand in very high, we will probably continue to relase the DVDs in standard definition only.
– Redesign the Imago Studios site (yet again). We have been using the same basic design for many years now, tweaking it every few years. Time permitting, we hope to redo the entire design to give the site a more up-to-date appearance.
– Add some new payment options to the Imago Studios membership site. We met recently with the representatives from Verotel and we hope to add them back a payment option starting some time in the next few months. We may even be able to add Verotel as a payment option for the Warehouse, but that programming may take some time to implement.
If you can’t get Lianne before she leaves, I would like to suggest Ginger for the Dominatrix sequel. I think she has the attitude to be fantastic in it.
The leather skirt and self-bondage themed videos are more or less done. In the works (actually, more like the planning stage) are a sequal to IS153-Don’t Mess with a Dominatrix (hopefully to be shot with Lianne Nguyen if she has time before she leaves) and another black girl themed video.
Wow! That is a lot to do for thIs year. I hope you don’t try to do too much and get burned out. What are the 2 DVD’s that are in the works? I know about the leather skirt one and Lenora’s self-bondage one.
