CHATSWORTH, Calif. - Vince Vouyer, owner of Vouyer Productions and one of the founders of Red Light District, told AVN.com Wednesday he is leaving Red Light to pursue other options.
Vouyer helped get Red Light District started in the fall of 2001. He said that after four-plus years with the popular gonzo company that he is ready for another challenge.
“I’m looking for a new home,†Vouyer said. “I’ll be done releasing through Red Light District and Platinum X at the end of December. There are a lot of reasons why, but I don’t think they matter. I think the company’s taking a different direction, one that I don’t really care for. We were growing apart.â€
Red Light District president David Joseph wished Vouyer well.
“I feel we built all this together,†Joseph said. “I understand. I figured one day this was going to happen because he’s always wanted to go do other things, so I wish him the best and I’ll always consider him a good friend of mine. Personally, it bums me out because we’re friends, but this is business and I respect it. I respect him and I know he respects me. If I can do anything to help him in the future, I will.â€
Vouyer, a 13-year industry veteran who has won AVN awards both as a performer and a producer, has released over 50 titles through Red Light District and eight through Platinum X. His most popular lines are the AVN award-winning Breakin 'Em In, Cum Drippers, Multiple POV and Cum Glazed. He also produces and directs series such as O-Ring Blowout, Just Another Whore, Road Head and Young Ripe Melons.
While at Red Light, Vouyer ran the production department for three-and-a-half years before stepping out of that role in August.
“My next few months will be very interesting to see what transpires,†Vouyer said. “I’m not really looking at any particular place. If a good deal presents itself, who knows what could happen? One thing is for sure that wherever I go I’ll be making what I’m known to make. ... I’m sure I’ll continue some series.â€
November has been marked by changes at Red Light, which saw director/performer Erik Everhard leave for Evil Angel before recently closing a distribution deal with director Michael Ninn and Ninn Worx.
Vouyer, whose final Red Light District release will be Cum Glazed 4 in December, added, “It’s been a fun ride. I had a blast.â€
