YNOT – During 2011, the Internet Adult Film Database added 9,384 new titles. Of those, 4,366 were produced in 2011. A closer look at the stats from those 4300 films shows some interesting trends.
According to the data, India Summer was the busiest female performer in the industry with 78 new titles. She narrowly beat out Asa Akira (75) and Kristina Rose (72). Those numbers are impressive, but as usual, the men were even busier. Rocco Reed took the top spot with 133 movies, coming in well head of Mick Blue (116) and Mr. Pete (110). Topping the list for new female performers was Ashlynn Leigh with 38 titles in her rookie year. Rylie Richman came in second with 33.
“There were some surprising names near the top of the lists,” said IAFD’s Jeff Vanzetti. “Certain names you expect to see: Asa Akira, Kristina Rose, Bobbi Starr. But to see that India Summer was the busiest of them all is pretty surprising. Really goes to show how much the MILF genre grew in 2011.”
The IAFD also tracked directors and production companies. Coming out on top of the list of most prolific directors in 2011 were Carl and Mary Hubay of Hotclits.net. They released a whopping 55 movies covering a number of genres. Lethal Hardcore’s Chucky Sleaze (48 ) and Digital Playground’s Robby D (41) came in with the next highest totals.
Evil Angel led all distribution companies with 173 new movies in 2011. Pure Play Media was second with 160. Numbers dropped after that to 111 for AMVC. Devil’s Films, with 93 releases was the top studio, narrowly beating out Bluebird Films by just one title.
“Even as most production companies have scaled back on DVD releases, these numbers show that some companies are still going strong,” Vanzetti said. “People still love porn.
“Some companies you expect to see at the top of a list like this,” he added. “Evil Angel distributes so many top-tier producers that they’re virtually unstoppable. But then you see a company like Bluebird Films that has gone from new kid on the block to powerhouse in such a short time. It’s very interesting and makes me wonder who will rise up this year.”
Vanzetti said IAFD.com served nearly 250 million pages to 20.7 million unique viewers during 2011. For a complete list of the top performers and studios based on the site’s statistics, click here.
