Mmmm, 2017 is shaping up to be a tough one, girls like Mila and Valeria, so hard to look at, how will we make it, going to be a stuggle :)

But hey 2018 may see the resurgence of the very under-valued art form of Twerking, or Totem may go the way of the other requests, ask the girls to drop a couple of fluid tablets, drink a litre of water and get them to ***** all over a glass floor, hey we made a Squirting card :) ...

2017, many challenges ahead :) Go Totem !! ...

Oh and when I am watching watching a show, like at the movies, and I don't like it, I look for the door with the green sign that says "Exit" and I then I get up and walk through it, problem solved :)

Cheers.

A bit of news from the production teams here. Our team is dedicated to customer satisfaction and makes the best efforts to ensure the best technical and artistic quality of the content produced. In 2017 we’ll keep raising the quality of girls, outfits and choreography.

Las Vegas studio will be closed at the beginning of 2017. Over the course of 24 months in 2015 and 2016, we produced about 40 girls there, with some great names such as Megan Rain, Jayden Cole, Valentina Nappi, Jillian Janson, Mia Malkova and Arianna Marie. Running a studio remotely is as costly as difficult and we kept struggling with recurrent casting, technical or wardrobe problems. We’re very happy of the addition American girls gave to our girls catalog but it made little sense to produce more in Vegas for now.

On the other side of the Atlantic, and some employment laws changed at the end of 2016 in France and we’re now able to get visas and hire models from Ukraine and Russia. This is where our major boost of new girls will come from in 2017.

At the end of 2016 we introduced “glass” clips, where the girls are acting behind a glass panel. This is going to become standard for the whole production in 2017 (not for each card, but for one or two cards per model).

Since mid 2016 we’ve been selling outfits on ebay on weekly basis and re-investing all the funds into new and better outfits for the girls.

iStripper XXX cards will evolve in 2017. We’re tuning the production to stay closer to regular cards, with an explicit twist and two or three masturbation / orgasm clips on the table.

Some (quick) nudity will be allowed in Free Previews in 2017. Models and photographers have been requesting a bit more freedom to make appealing teasers.

Feel free to comment and tell us more about what you’d like to see in 2017.

Nothing is set in stones yet regarding XXX cards. We don't want to stop their production, we're only reacting to comments from customers and the crew here finding the format too boring. We filmed a few cards with the new format here, the goal is to make them more interesting, not less interesting. In the new format we tried, most of the card looks like a regular card except the girls goes further and there is 3 scenes on the desk of them reaching an orgasm. It probably won't be the final format, we'll read your feedback on them and adapt if needed.

I ***** it when everyone says yep XXX cards are boring but that's how they've always been. I'd like XXX cards to be as entertaining as regular card AND to contain XXX.

When girls are in Paris they just bloom personality wise and the French Studio sure know how to make em laugh.
Its a culture thing and I didn't get the same carefree vibe when performances were made in other studios.

Thanks for the information Rex.
Perhaps you can film American girls if they come to Europe.
I would like to see more XXX duo shows especially using the cage.
If possible could you find a local French dominatrix who while not being suitable for a solo show could use handcuffs etc. with other girls in a duo using the cage.

I am wondering.........
What exactly are you trying to do 2506 ???

I've also noticed quite a lot of this copying and quoting of other people's posts without comment. Appears to be mainly with new members who apparently don't know how to use the software/website :/

To save ***** and annoying other members, may I suggest deleting this useless information? It serves no purpose and just clogs up the last 30 posts... :(

A PM from the Mod who deletes these posts to the member might help educate them :)

Part of the problem is there just isn't a great crop of girls available right now. We had Melisa, Lucy Li, Viola etc during one stretch, that just isn't altogher possible right now. I was mad about American studio but there really had to overpay to get great dancers, and there are few girls with great bodies, who are flexibly and bubbly. So we get Mila, too skinny, but big boobs and can't dance, or Valeria, great dancer, but too skinny and flat all over. That being said, All I ask for is diversity...I felt the contrast between American style and Ukrainian style was great, I only bought half the cards that came out, now there is not contrast...you may be happy but there are many who are at least disappointed with the lack of contrast between girls. Imagine if totem closed the Ukrainian studio, and only had American pornstars? How would you feel? Would you just take your 3000 cards and just disappear? Or would you at least ask for a compromise. That is all I am asking for...some sort of entertaining dancing with a real woman who has performed at a high level in club. And stop ***** on any movement a girl does that show she can have great sex...it makes much more sense to like a girl who can shake her hips and ass, since that is a natural movement during sex, than a girl who stands in place swaying. The girls with tight hips, who just sway, look like they would just lay in bed...that may be great for some, but it natural to love a girl who looks talented in bed. ***** and twerking or no where near the same thing, when a girl twerks during sex she shows she is into the sex and recipricating the pleasure, ***** is not that.

Hi @orclover, I think what may have shocked a lot of the 'old guard' here was that Totem's reps in USA could not find many inkless shaven younger women who could start TotemUSA off more seamlessly with a good show for the money. For me USA cards too had a different vibe than Paris. I can only surmise was due to the way the studio was run. Many girls performances just seemed a lot less relaxed and less naturally fun-like to me. It felt like there was pressure to perform in a certain way there. ..so many twerks per card ...whatever.

For instance many models did not pause/express their own admiration for their own bodies' beauty by glancing at it very much and then back at the camera enough. Instead chose to just look directly at the camera like it was a photoshoot. That used to happen in the early days in Paris,.and we used to yell at poor Paris Team a lot for that. USA Studio should have picked that up, and tried to blend the styles more, because when done properly, (eg: Sabrisse), self admire~lookup~self admire-lookup invites the viewer. It reflects enjoyment / confidence in the 'chemistry' of the performance for the viewer.

As far as a Studio in the Ukraine goes, i don't think there ever was one.
Cheaper to fly ladies to Paris I would think.

My problem with the US site was simple, they did a woeful job. Nearly every card needs to be updated, even when updated they did not match the quality of the France site, the pictures were generally 2nd rate and they offered up nothing but pornstars. They didn't even try to look outside their window, they contacted a few porn agencies for quotes and up came the usual US pornstar, Elsa Jean, it's what you would expect a next gen Barbie to look like, trashy, blonde and hollow. The people paid to to do the US enterprise were lazy and they deserved to be closed IMO. Everyone was excited when it was announced that they were opening a US studio, the diversity was coming, it didn't, they couldn't even find a Foxy type, in Las Vegas !! .. If Totem wanted to add diversity they could, Paris herself is very diverse, many women from many cultures, maybe they just don't sell, I would buy say another Isabella Chrystin, maybe I am in the minority, only Totem knows what makes them the dollars and that's what they will continue to sell.

When I read the forum on girls we would like to see returned I don't see many call outs for any of the US pornstars, so there doesn't seem to be any great demand that I can see. I have a few thousand cards myself, many lately I haven't bought, Shyla Jennings, seen all that can be seen, pass, Dillion Harper, seriously, pass. Simple.

And thanks for the lesson on twerking, very informative and for the clarification that it is not the same as *****, which is not ***** though, it's squirting, big difference, alot of xxx movies sell because they have squirters, all girls can *****, only the special ones can squirt :) ...

Cheers.

I am for making xxx cards more. I like them and deskbabes was my first choice not virtual girl. I think that every show, not only xxx, shoul have sound. I like girls talking to me. And one thing. I miss duos. It would be great to see them back for example Nancy and Gloria kissing together, Stella Cox with Tina Kay.... Dreams ;)

Amen to every single suggestion of yours!! I agree wholeheartedly! There should be sound on every card: xxx, or otherwise!

@zenexxx, @mo7ibelkuss - If there was sound on every card then either the girls would have to dance without the help of music or Totem would have to obtain worldwide rights to distribrute the music which would presumably require that they raise the prices charged for the cards. Perhaps an introductory clip with the girl talking could be provided, but thats probably all that would be practical.

This is a quote from one of Isabella Chystine's card describing not just her traits as a VG performer, but on a macro level what Totem, at that time deemed a cherished attribute of theirs ... "We pride ourselves with having the most ethnically diverse models on our roster, so that we can bring you the finest, most gorgeous dancers on the internet." The key focus here is "ethically diverse models". This is why I willnot miss the U.S. studio. the names might of had some gravity towards their appeal as performers but ethnically diverse performe, such as black girls, brown girls, Asians which includes the whole litiny of Pacific rim nations is desperately overwhelmed by white European women. If somehow, this issue can be addresed and implemetation of a fresh parade of racially diverse dancers could be added to the card mix, I'd be WAY less conservative in holding back my purchases on tickets. Every weeki, I await a fresh face that appears strikingly different from the other girls and remain dissappointed week after week. Is ethnic diversity that hard to acquire or is it? Sometimes I wonder what the setback is.

Is it possible to have a french translation about the "news from the production"?
Or maybe it is not available for the french mafia!

I'm sad about the closing of the US studio. But as long as we get some American girls at some point, I'm happy. The production value overall has been great lately! Good job! Also....PLEASE bring back duo cards! Please! I'll pay the extra!

Thank you

IStrip should try to get Emily Bloom
she has the most amazing boobs

Sincerely

Make your own thread for that lol

Yes Emily Bloom would be a very nice girl in iStripper. Make a thread about her to convince Totem :).

She definitely has that "innocent" look to her...but we all know very well there is no such thing as "innocent" hehe

We do pay models extra to do XXX of course. You'll discover the new content of XXX cards in April and we'll tune them from there to try to reach the perfect ratio between XXX and interesting.

meanwhile...back in the 'News from Production' room...there was a call for perkier tits. ..srry couldn't resist :-)>
Could you guys stand a duo card that was ~ wrestling in baked beans ?

baked beans??? sounds gassy LMAO

@Popeyed, I meant Jello ofc nevermind ;-)>
Most of the gas expended in this thread was some hot air over where models should come from.
Totem have a business to run. A bit like a restaurant where everyone wants a different dish.
I don't envy them this task. They have to turn a coin as they see fit.
I'm happy & seem to be buying more cards than normal recently.

After a break from IStripper (***** to take the break from different reasons), here I come again.
Thanks for the news, @Rex.Even it passed allready one month for me are news :)))
I can`t believe I have allready almost 7 years of membership and I`m still here. It means I`m still interested in your product,since I`m still here.
If I resume these 7 years of membership since I joined to your product, I noticed a continue improuvement of your product and this thing glad me ,because I saw you care about your product and all the time you do or you try to please your customers.
This is not a compliment, it`s just a fact and I wanted to tell you I`m very pleased about your product.

Well, I noticed more less produced cards or at all regarding technical issues of the cards.If I go back in time , I remembered you had enough cards with technical issues(bad lights,problems with resolution, blurred animations without a good focus, etc)
Also, I noticed a very good improuvement regarding pictures of the girls.
The have very high resolution, they are crystal clear,the light is very good and I'm glad because of the high resolution pictures I can see every detail of the girls :)
I want to congratulate especially your photographers , because they do a great job.

The only thing that I need to check after I missed in this period of time, if you fixed those old problems with the sound or background sounds in Istripperxxx cards.
I like also the make -up artists of your team. They do a great job and I like very much the make-up of the girls (not too much strident make-up)

Regarding videos, I didn`t check yet the resolution of the videos produced(I will check), but I`m sure they have a great resolutiuon.

Regarding directors, I have a little ***** about animations.I noticed in some cards the look of the girls are concentated to directors or to those people responsible with guidance of the girls, instead to focus on the camera.This thing is very disturbing ,when the girl is not concentrated on the camera.
For us,the viewers, it is very important that the girls to have a good eye contact with the camera.
A few advices for the girls to focus on the camera will be welcomed, I`m sure

Regarding casting, I want to specify this is ONLY my point of view based on my taste of the girls( The look of the girls).
I see from your news,you closed the USA studio. To be honest, for me it`s not a big loss since I checked the casting girls from USA and I didn`t find too many girls on my taste( I mean the recently girls from 7 months ago untill the present time) (I took a break of 8 months about).

Since the fountain countries with the most selected girls of Istripper( and I`m talking here especially Czech Republic) became dry, I`m glad you focused more on the girls from Ukraine and Russia.
I`m glad your country change the law regarding visas for Ukraine and Russia.
This thing is very good for you like Producer and for us like customers.
I can say only WOW regarding the casting from Ukraine and Russia.
I`m very glad finally you succeed to bring these beautiful girls from Russia and Ukraine here on IStripper.
I like very much the selection of the girls from these countries.There are plenty beautiful girls, but I want to mention only some extremely gorgeous girls that I like very much ( NIEMIRA, MILA AZUL,, LI MOON, NASITA, GENEVIEVE GANDI, ALESSANDRA JANE, ESTONIKA, GLORIA (WITH THE BEST SALES AS I READ), SYBIL, ALLY BREELSEN,)
Although the fountain(Czech Rep.) was almost dry , you still found 2 more names Vanessa Mio and Anie Darling on my taste.
I saw you found also some beautiful girls on my taste from other countries ( the return of Valeria from Switzerland, Rebecca Volpetti from Italy or Apolonia and Alexa Tomas from Spain).

I want to say hello also to @celine ,one of the most active Member from The Team on the forum together with Rex , all the time ready to help you with some support (customer support) ,
I want to thank you @celine for all you do, for quickly response every time when some customers meet some problems, ready to help them all the time.

In the end, I want to congratulate Totem Team for all the good job they do to please all the time their customers.

P.S.
I have a wish IF it`s possible.
I want to see 12 cards with NIEMIRA, MILA AZUL , LI MOON, NASITA AND ESTONIKA.
I`m sure they will have great sales like GLORIA.
For me they will be instant buy in the day when they will be released.

Thank you!
Best Regards!
Your Faithfull Customer

" In the new format we tried, most of the card looks like a regular card except the girls goes further and there is 3 scenes on the desk of them reaching an orgasm. It probably won't be the final format, we'll read your feedback on them and adapt if needed."

From my point of view, I agree with this new format.
In case of me, I will be bored if the girl jumps directly on my desktop NAKED , LAY DOWN and start action. (no teasing , no dressed nothing).
This thing will be boring IN CASE OF ME :)

P.S.
The only thing that I don`t like it is the design(the interface) of your new site (www.Istripper.eu)
I don`t know , but for the moment I didn`t get used with it. Anyway , I discovered the great feature " OUR MODELS".It is very good organised with plenty informations regarding models.
I liked your old site www.Virtuagirl.com or something like this.
Instead I like very much the software installed on my desktop. It has a great design,very usefull and many usefull features.

I want to say Hello also to the Mods, especially to Cartref , Wyldanimal and 91hebasu
I`m glad to be here and see you again ;)

I do not understand. You want the show to be more careful, but it is totally the reverse that is produced.
***** of the sound completely destroys the show (hardly started I did not want to continue the show). No presentation of the model (it was nevertheless a very good approach, which made us want to see more), and the ***** of the erotic progression, (before we started with the fingers, then an object, always in a sexier position ).

I think what people were referring to the latest XXX clips (from the old version) was not so much the lack of variety of the show itself, but the lack of ethnic variety of models, and the lack of Their conviction.
When we look at XXX classics, women talk, laugh, ..., they are amusing.
A good example is, Aleska Diamond who was exellent in her show duo and solo.

This will be the mountain top I will be declaring my undying love for the XXX cards until I fall down, it may seem more like screaming though :p

The structure of the XXX show went out the window in it's current state. People can accept no sound in pole and standing clips, and having sound in the table clips. In the current state there are more pole and standing clips then table clips, XXX sound scenes are randomly thrown in with no context, and the charming introductions are gone.

XXX shows you could really enjoy a 10-12 minute scene which provided an atmosphere of erotic progression. Models with amazing dirty talk seduced us for a full scene.

I know I advocated more standing clips, to showcase the outfit. Having both pole and standing clips, great for a normal card, but with the multiple strip downs for each it feels like it suffocates the XXX out of the iStripperXXX cards.

I really miss juicy 10+ minute full scenes to enjoy.

On special request I put my own comment aswell in this Topic

The New XXX Cards doesn't give the same experience as it did by Deskbabes and some earlier iStripper XXX Cards. Just 2 á 3 Sound Clips with erotic talk/moaning and orgasm are far to less to call it a XXX Rated Card.

I have opened a Topic on the Forum about this myself, because I really miss the previous XXX Card concept as by Deskbabes. I dont understand why they call this a iStripper XXX Card while out of all clips (14~17 clips) just 2 á 3 are recorded with sound (Just the ending). I think a XXX iStripper show deserves much more, otherwise dont "Create" a XXX show at all but record a iStripper Show instead. We dont really expect Sound Recordings by such iStripper Show so we cannot really get disappointed in that case. Members suggest as Idea to add sound by the introduction clips of those iStripper Cards, for what I think is a great idea!

The Sound always improves the appealing to "listen" & watch to a show and makes a Show complete. Imagine as they remove the whole recorded show visual but instead they give us only the "Sound" recorded, How can we enjoy such card? A Cinema movie recorded without Sound but you see peeple talking to eachother is also less enjoyfull to watch, you wont even think about it to buy such movie. Imagine a Sexual Erotic movie recorded circa 2 hours without sound but only in the very last few minutes the Sound comes up only by the Orgasm Scene, How weird is that? :| Will you enjoy the movie at maximal experience? (I dont) OR you buy a DVD of you favorite artist and the artist suppose to sing, so you expect the sound and listen but instead they haven't added sound at all but only the show, I think in this case you will think "I bring this product back to the shop!, something is wrong here!". And yeah, For me by iStripper XXX the sound is essential important feature to enjoy watching a woman model playing with herself AS for those who buy a Concert DVD and expect sound by his/her favorite artist to Listen And Watch.

Thanks for read my comment, Terbone :)

I'm going to quote my previous post aswell.

I am quite disappointed by the new style xxx cards as well. I bought some, to try and see what they are like, but I won't buy more for the time being. They just don't feel special and much less personal to me.
Of course, the old style was in times a bit repetitive, but in my opinion this is not the answer to that problem.

Cheers

I bought 2 more xxx cards scince then, i was all giddy and excited about Mila and that italian girl (i can't quite remember her name right now), but those cards were a let down aswell.

**Mistake made here**

iStripper XXX cards will evolve in 2017. We’re tuning the production to stay closer to regular cards, with an explicit twist and two or three masturbation / orgasm clips on the table.

It have to be said but what this is all about.. had to be a "Poll" on the Forum/Website like you do as company all the time with new Upcomming models instead of a ***** "Evolve" experiment in Year: 2017. I really hope NOT this is for the rest of the year, hm? I'm 200% sure if you had asked all of you iStripper Members about this, you would have been easily answered.. Oh no!, that is not a good idea (As Feedback) Members would have said maybe as suggestion uhm.. yeah maybe a third Card level (iStripper, iStripper+ and iStripperXXX) instead of completly replace the XXX Card with a Regular Dance-XXX Card. This New XXX Format gives us the idea you production will never record any XXX Card ever again how it was, so you kind of saying this new format is a totally replacement over the other format we had as usual.

Waste of cards of some very attractive Topmodels

lets face it.. alot of the members still think it is a Bug that needs to be Fixed instead they are aware of the fact this is a Evolve decission made for year 2017 by the company self for experiment. :S - Remember? peeple goes back to the store if they think something is wrong with their product (Heeh the Sound is missing!, oh woah why is my model dancing instead of playing with herself ? :O. Not all of the members are follow the forums all the time, so are in overall totally suprised with this new concept. for reasons like writen all above a 'Poll' by Forum/Website and invitation by Mail was more safe decission to make. Aswell alot of members that are part of iStripper came from software 'Deskbabes'.. Deskbabes was for them the reason to take part of Totem Entertainment to enjoy Desktop Girls with XXX rated explicit shows, these members experience this action as some kind of backstab towards them :( not so innocent experiment. (I'm one of those members, I had VirtuaGirl and Deskbabes together)
