BOSTON — Angie Rowntree's Sssh.com has released "Stranger in Venice," a co-production with Dennis Claes of newly launched label Sensual-X.
A photographer since 1996, Claes elected to "follow his passion for narrative imagery into film," noted a rep. With the rise of model-driven platforms and the demand for more erotic content, he decided to "explore new creative possibilities and started producing adult music videos, consistently putting women in powerful roles and celebrating their sexuality."
Claes remarked that "shooting in Venice has been a dream project of mine since I first experienced the city in 2008."
"I’ve always seen it as an unattainable dream, but Sssh made it real," he said. "Working with Sssh has been more than just a production; it’s been a truly supportive experience. It’s nice to see how they truly care about the people involved in the production, making sure they are safe and taken care of. Working with Angie showed me a whole other kind of environment that understands and appreciates what you are trying to do as a creative. Not only that, but she helped me realize that there is so much more I can achieve."
Rowntree described Claes as "a marvelous visual storyteller" whose aesthetic "very much aligns with Sssh's vision of female-driven scenes with real passion."
“Stranger in Venice” features a real-life couple, Anneke and Nick.
“Everything you see is intimate and genuine,” Rowntree explained. “I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. The immersive scenes shot around Venice are that kind of decadent fantasy our members love.”
“I cannot wait to collaborate with Dennis again,” she added. “I look forward to seeing where our imaginations and cameras can go next.”
“Stranger in Venice” is available as a member exclusive from Sssh.com and Claes's Sensual-x.be.
