LOS ANGELES — Cruel Media announced it will launch LiveGonzo.com and affiliate program CruelBucks.com that will provide real-time sex scenes shot by adult producers and allow users an interactive “back stage pass.”

The new site will debut March 19 and according to owner, producer/director Raul Cristian, LiveGonzo is not just another porn shoot site but a front row seat in the euphemistic “Pussy Live Sex Show,” just as it happens.

Cristian said he hopes his site will battle tube sites by providing unique, uncut footage and unprecedented access to interactive dialogue with popular adult directors and producers.

Users will have the opportunity to see adult studio professionals at work including John Stagliano, Jonni Darko, Manuel Ferrara, Chris Streams, Andrew Youngman and Clara G. They’ll also be able to chat with the pros on line and participate by asking questions, suggesting poses and virtually directing the action in online shows that will last almost two hours.

The site is currently in preview with a countdown clock ticking off for the first shoot that’s scheduled for March 19 at 2 P.M. PST. The first scene, directed by Cristian himself, will include Eva Angelina, David Perry and Steve Holmes.

Cristian said the site was aggressively tested prior to launch by broadcasting several live shoots on Clara-G.com and AssTitans.com in late 2009 that are now part of the LiveGonzo database.

He also marketed the model to existing chat users who he said loved the experience along with producers who were excited about the unique aspect of interacting with fans. Producers also embraced the way they could monetize the experience as an affiliate partner.

Cristian is cautiously optimistic about the site’s success, citing the precarious adult web landscape. But he feels that the CruelBucks affiliate piece of the model delivers the shared benefit of excellent content production and brand names that will appeal both to users and producers.

LiveGonzo is not limited to studio partners. Other adult sites can also benefit from the streaming content that Cristian said could be integrated into any site that wants to offer more than standard clips and poor quality feeds. Affiliates have a choice to use the CruelBucks billing system or retain their own.

Los Angeles-based producers and porn stars have the added opportunity to bolster their own affiliate programs by facilitating live broadcasts to their own affiliates. A free location and tech support will be provided by Cruel Media. Alternate solutions will also be available to those producers outside of L.A.

Sites including EvilAngel.com, Buttman.com, RoccoSiffredi.com, PeterNorth.com, FreeOnes.com, DevilsFilm.com, Clara-G.com, AssTitans.com and the PerfectGonzo.com network of 10 sites have reportedly all signed on to LiveGonzo.

It has also been reported that Cristian is working with the Japanese producer Baba to broadcast from Tokyo.

LiveGonzo’s reported shooting schedule includes Jay Sin directing on March 21; Youngman shooting Sandy and Chayse Evans on March 22; and Cristian directing Tori Black with Erik Everhard and David Perry on April 6.
