Hello,
I too own a production company, and we had considered this path before. We have a KILLER script (it's actually very well developed). The problem we have is that we do way too many mainstream productions, and we never devised a good method to release this under a different name. We were afraid it might negatively affect business with our corporate and government clients.
Our company has released edgy titles before, but nothing you might consider 'adult'. However, this script was developed over the past 9 years, and would make an interesting and captivating video. We concentrated on the situations, and not so much on the sexual aspect of it. In fact, the script calls for no actual sex acts. But there would be plenty of nudity and intense ENF situations.
Success of a film like this would depend heavily on the acting performance and the director. I was prepared to step up to the plate in that regard.
In regards to your question about surprising the talent in various scenes, I recommend against it. One thing you can do however, is agree ahead of time that there would be surprises and outline all the parameters they might be subject to. But I would certainly not proceed in that fashion without some sort of understanding between the producers and the talent. There are ways to create a very broad and generalized model release which would encompass these things. But just make sure each of those possibilities are detailed specifically prior to production.
If there's any way I can help with a production like this, let me know. I feel we have an ace of a script, and I would love to produce it. Perhaps one day I will. I just need to find the appropriate means to do so.

I run a film production company that deals with making short adult films for distribution over the internet by third parties. We currently produce for other sites to sell, but we are looking to make and sell short videos for ourselves.
We have been trying to guage the markets for various types of films, and one of the possibilities is ENF videos. These videos would be professionally shot, made with the elements of ENF (ie. girls tied and left for others, public stripping etc...) It is possible that we would not tell the actors what was going to happen to them to give it a more realistic element. The videos would be made by us with our story lines, but there is an option for people to pay a small fee and have their ideal video made for sale if we think it is a good enough story.
The videos would be sold through our production website, be about 10-15 minutes long, and be sold as downloads. They would retail about £5 (or $7) and you would be able to use these downloads to burn to DVD or watch on your computer.
Having been a member here for a while I think I know what you guys and girls like, but ideas and discussions from the people who would be looking at the videos would always be welcome.
What i would like to know from you is if there is a market? Would people be willing to try a few downloads that they knew were ENF based and contained real(ish) situations?
I am sorry if this is the wrong place for this, and Alex please feel free to move/delete etc... if this post is not acceptable. However, it would be greatly appreciated if people would take the time to give their thoughts. We have enjoyed success with other adult ventures that we have tried, but would like a more neiche market that we don't think is really catered for. The money is there, the time is there, the equipment is there. But is the interest there?
Feel free to ask any questions or give your views.
Thanks for your time!
