LOS ANGELES — Danny Zeeman, CEO of affiliate network Zbuckz, and performer-director Dominic Pacifico have resumed production under COVID-compliant safety measures for Rawhole.com, which is shot on location in Brazil.
Zbuckz merged DominicPacifico.com with the newly launched Rawhole.com last spring.
"The year-old website had become an instant success in its initial months, then COVID-19 spread and shut down the industry worldwide. Travel restrictions and lack of adequate testing and treatment meant Dominic [and his company Pacifico Entertainment] had no choice but to wait it out and hope for improvement," a rep recalled.
"After nine months of being unable to return to Brazil, Pacifico Entertainment [adopted] practical and effective safety protocols for testing and risk reduction there. COVID-19 testing in Brazil has ramped up to the point that models can get an inexpensive test one day at a local pharmacy, obtain immediate results and work the next day," noted the rep. "Testing for the virus is added to the full panel of STI testing already required. Pacifico Entertainment sticks to the same safety standards as any other professional studio in the U.S. We make sure models and staff are tested, safe and comfortable on our locations. Now it’s back to production and providing site members with the red-hot Brazilian muscle guys they’ve missed."
Pacifico enjoys the production hub of São Paulo, he said, "for the diversity and variety of beautiful men there."
"One of many challenges in shooting has been the language barrier; English is not widely spoken," he noted. “The models do not speak English. I’ve had to adapt and be creative in how I communicate. I’ve now learned some Portuguese and will continue picking it up as a second language."
Zeeman commended Pacifico on finding "practical and creative solutions to shooting in a country hit hard by the pandemic."
"It's certainly been a challenging time for production, especially on an international scale, but with safety protocols in place we’re beyond excited to announce that Rawhole is back with the huge-dick Brazilian musclebound studs that our members love," he said.
