The video, a sports gear fetish film, stars Deckard, Logan McCree, Steve Cruz, Scott Tanner and Tyler Saint.
“I think sports gear has a broad appeal in a sexual context,” Deckard said. “I love jocks, socks, cleats, pads — all that shit — and while I was busy filming this video it's really developed into a full-on fetish for me.”
Screaming Eagle XXX, a new company fully owned and operated by Deckard, has gotten off to a rollicking start with its first release “Ink Storm.”
“I'm looking to develop a new audience with Screaming Eagle XXX — bad-ass young men who feel they aren’t in the scope of the big porn companies and who usually don't buy their stuff because it isn't cool,” Deckard said. “I'd like to make a real mark on these guys’ sexuality, turn them on and give them something to think about and lust over for a good long time.”
Raging Stallion President Chris Ward is very pleased with Deckard.
“Jake has become one of the key players in the gay adult biz in just a few short years,” he said. “He is our top actor at Raging Stallion and his first film, ‘Ink Storm,’ is one of the biggest hits of the year. He has that rare gift of really knowing what makes good erotica. He has learned all aspects of the industry — from acting, to camerawork, to casting, to directing, to editing, and even to marketing. I am very glad he is associated with our studio!”
Deckard is nominated for an XBIZ Award as GLBT Performer of the Year and is up for two GAYVN Awards: Performer of the Year and Best Actor for his performance in Raging Stallion’s epic, “Grunts.”
“I really feel like I went the distance in that video,” Deckard said. “I am ready to move into production and away from being a ‘star’ — “Grunts” couldn't have given me a better opportunity to show what I'm capable of.”
In addition to Deckard’s own GAYVN nominations, Screaming Eagle XXX received a nod for Best Fetish Video for “Ink Storm.”
Deckard plans to continue working in front of the camera in Screaming Eagle XXX productions. “The best part of being the director is being able to choose your own co-stars,” he said. “At this point, if you see me with anybody in a scene, you can bet we both really wanted to be there.”
Raging Stallion Studios is the exclusive distributor of Screaming Eagle XXX, and the two companies have a close working relationship that allows Raging Stallion exclusive models to perform in Deckard’s productions. Steve Cruz and Logan McCree, who are both featured in “Jock Itch,” are Raging Stallion exclusives.
Ward summed up his thoughts on Deckard with one sentence.
“Jake Deckard is here to stay,” he said.
The release date for “Jock Itch” is March 28 and will premiere during Black Party week in New York City.
