Studio Vanniall has released a new clip titled "The Cowboy Rides the Rose," featuring Vanniall and Viktor Belmont. The studio is also conducting an open casting call for professional talent in Los Angeles for upcoming productions.

New Clip Release and Production Details

On August 19, 2026, Studio Vanniall released "The Cowboy Rides the Rose," a new clip starring Vanniall and Viktor Belmont. The scene was directed by Vanniall and filmed in May in Los Angeles by Ashley Lake. This marks Viktor Belmont’s first appearance for Studio Vanniall.

The narrative of "The Cowboy Rides the Rose" involves a public encounter that transitions into a private setting. Vanniall stated that the intention for the clip was to combine "hard edges and softness." Vanniall also noted that Viktor Belmont developed a character with a "gruff, commanding presence," and the scene was constructed around this contrast while maintaining the visual aesthetic. The production utilized new Fuji cameras, and Vanniall expressed satisfaction with the color quality. The clip is part of Studio Vanniall's launch slate.

Casting Call and Upcoming Productions

Studio Vanniall is currently seeking professional talent for Los Angeles productions scheduled for August 22 and 23. Interested performers can contact vanniall@fastmail.com for more information. Studio Vanniall can also be followed on X.com.

The studio, launched by performer/producer Vanniall, began booking paid shoots at industry-standard rates for models of all genders and presentations in May 2026. Initial production dates included May 11-15 in Miami and May 25-30 in Los Angeles. Shoots were also scheduled throughout June in New York City and at Vanniall’s production property in western Massachusetts. From June 23-30, shoots were slated in Minneapolis. Vanniall stated that the studio aims to create "unique narrative work that feels hot, polished and like nothing they’ve seen before."

Ashley Lake, co-producer and videographer for Studio Vanniall, mentioned that the project aims to address a vision "mostly missing from the upper levels of the adult industry." Lake noted that while "porn is obsessed with black trans women, they rarely get control of a project with a budget." Lake added that Vanniall is building a company that will provide creative power to others who want to "break out of predictable plot lines and into truly head-turning smut." The studio is described as "U+ inclusive" and seeks professional talent for its debut content slate.

Studio Vanniall's Broader Initiatives

In addition to film production, Studio Vanniall announced a new podcast titled "Letting It Hang." Vanniall, who has prior experience as a podcast host for Chaturbate’s "Sex Tales," will host the new show. The podcast is preparing for production, with Vanniall booking guests for its initial Los Angeles tapings on August 24-25.

"Letting It Hang" aims to bring together Vanniall, adult industry personalities, and guests from various cultural fields for conversations. The show intends to explore "unexpected chemistry and contrasting perspectives" by inviting artists, scientists, politicians, media figures, and other voices. Vanniall expressed a desire to connect individuals who might not typically engage in the same conversation, focusing on commonalities and differences. The goal is for the show to be "smart, funny and unpredictable."

The podcast is produced and based in Los Angeles, created by Studio Vanniall in collaboration with an established local production studio that has worked on other adult industry podcasts. Additional recording sessions are planned multiple times a year to build a recurring guest roster from adult entertainment, culture, science, art, politics, and media.
