Adult Entertainment Studio Pink Visual Lending A Helping Hand in Oil Spill Crisis

For Immediate Release:   June 7, 2010

Campaign looks to start an industry wide support effort

VAN NUYS, Calif. – Most of the time when the public hears the company name “Pink Visual,” there’s a clever, porn related idea or marketing twist attached to the reference – but not today.
 
Adult entertainment studio Pink Visual announced this morning that the company has donated $2500 to the Environmental Defense Fund, and committed to matching individual donations made by its employees. The studio is also giving paid time off to employees who volunteer through the Audubon Action Center. Employees are also donating time by conducting webinars to help provide technical education to Gulf Coast workers whose careers have come to a complete halt due to the spill.
 
Pink Visual President Allison Vivas said that her company realizes the gesture is small compared to the damage in the Gulf, which is why the studio is also calling on its peers in the adult industry to step up and offer their own support, adding a page to the company’s central website that lists various options for how the studio’s competitors, business partners, advertisers and fans can help.
 
“By ourselves, we can only make so much of a difference, but if we can get other members of the adult industry on board, the impact will be much more significant,” Vivas said.
 
While there are many critics of the adult entertainment industry who might not even welcome this support, Vivas said Pink Visual isn’t concerned about how its actions are perceived by critics, only about the extent to which the company and the adult industry at large can help the people and wildlife of the affected region.
 
“This isn’t about being pro-porn or anti-porn; it is about being human and having compassion,” Vivas said. “We’re calling on the whole industry to join us in this effort, in part to demonstrate that the adult entertainment industry can be a force for positivity. The majority of this industry is composed of good people, people whose hearts are in the right place, despite what our critics might say about us.”
 
“The fact is that we’re completely frustrated over this catastrophic failure by the oil industry and we’re offering help and encouraging others to do the same,” Vivas added. “Anybody that has a problem with that can point their fingers and pass judgment. That’s their choice; our choice was to get off the sidelines and do something, anything, to help.”
 
Vivas said she hopes that this might set an example for other small businesses in other industries to start similar initiatives.  For more information about supporting the cause or to sign up to the webinars, please visit http://www.pinkvisual.com/oil_spil
