Vivid Entertainment

Vivid Entertainment is the world’s leading producer of high quality erotic movies. With unique concepts such as its famous "Vivid Girls," the elite among adult actresses and the first to be signed to exclusive contracts modeled on the storied Hollywood studio system, Vivid has established a clear brand name identity and has led the adult industry to an unprecedented level of mainstream media acceptance. It has solidified its strong leadership position in domestic U.S. adult video sales and rentals, expanded the market by producing films enjoyed by couples in addition to the traditional male audience, and developed diverse revenue streams in international markets. The company is unequaled in mastering fast-growing areas such as wireless communications and video-on-demand (VOD). It is the first to introduce movies in both HD DVD and Blu-ray formats with its production of “Debbie Does Dallas…Again.” Vivid features and talent consistently win top adult industry honors and in 2007 its film Chemistry directed by best-selling author Tristan Taormino won the AVN Award for Best Gonzo film. Vivid movies have won more AVN Awards than those of any other adult film company.

Vivid is the only adult film company to create a successful professional business development and licensing program. It has grown the brand name through marketing partnerships with companies that manufacture a wide variety of Vivid products and services -- from condoms to comic books and a range of apparel. Vivid’s first book, How to Have a XXX Sex Life: The Ultimate Vivid Guide from Harper-Collins became a best-seller and was published in both hardcover and paperback editions.

Major articles about Vivid have appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Economist, The Los Angeles Times, Forbes, Variety, U.S. News & World Report, The Financial Times among others, and the company has been the subject of numerous television and web stories.
