Film Work
Adams' career producing and directing gay adult films began in 2000. Real to Reel, an adult film company, hired him to direct but the movie was never completed. However, one scene, featuring Christopher Young and Leo DeSilver, eventually appeared in the film Hitchhikers Delight released by Natural Wonders Productions in 2002.
Adams' growing familiarity with adult film production, a by-product of his work reporting from gay porn sets, soon led to writing and directing duties.
Adams' first credit adult film script was The List, produced by MSR Videos in 2003. He served as production manager in the film, and produced three other titles that year as well.
In early 2004, Adams directed his first credited gay porn scenes, including the film Shooters from MSR Videos. The film was co-directed with Alizzi. Earlier that year, he had his first solo turn as a director, helming the All Worlds Video Catch Me. In 2005, Adams directed Sex With Strangers for All Worlds Video before returning to RAD Video, where he directed and produced Friends With Benefits.
In August 2006, Studio 2000 owner David McKay hired Adams as his new chief of production. Adams replaced Scott Masters, the award-winning director and co-founder of Studio 2000 who retired after selling the production house. McKay announced that Adams would manage all the studio's productions, while adult film performer and director Chad Donovan would handle talent development.
The first film he managed for the studio, Big Boat, was released in January 2007.

Famous quotes containing the words film and/or work:
“Television does not dominate or insist, as movies do. It is not sensational, but taken for granted. Insistence would destroy it, for its message is so dire that it relies on being the background drone that counters silence. For most of us, it is something turned on and off as we would the light. It is a service, not a luxury or a thing of choice.”
—David Thomson, U.S. film historian. America in the Dark: The Impact of Hollywood Films on American Culture, ch. 8, William Morrow (1977)
“If work is part of your identity, think very carefully before you give it up. Giving it up won’t make you a better mother; it will make you less of the person you are; and that will make you less of a mother.”
—Jean Marzollo (20th century)
