(VAN NUYS, CA) -- Digital Playground is thrilled to announce the official exclusive signing of multi award winning director, Nic Andrews. During the last year, Nic Andrews has received 7 AVN awards, including Best Video and Best Director. Four of his films received Editor's Choice acclaim; one received the award for Best Adult Title from the Video Software Dealers Association; and he is currently sitting on 12 additional nominations for AVN's 2002 Award Show. These acknowledgements have contributed to Nic's rapid ascent in the adult industry.

Nic is excited about the opportunity to join Digital's team. "It has definitely been worth the wait. In our very first meeting it dawned on me that Digital Playground regards film making as their number one priority. This awed me because I didn't even know this attitude existed at adult companies. The resources available to me now transcend adult venues and I am very excited to begin production. Joone not only shares my vision, he can provide me with the means to produce this vision. Digital Playground's line of feature productions offer compelling stories set in front of awesome visuals. Their special effects team is state of the art and the best in the industry. I am confident that this union will raise the standards for the entire industry, blurring the line between adult and mainstream."

Digital Playground's Vice President, Joone says, "I was informed that Nic was ready for a change after his obligations were completed. In the months that followed, Nic and I had many meetings about the current state of adult filmmaking and the types of films we were interested in making. It was clear to me that Nic shared Digital Playground's philosophies and that he was finally ready to implement those philosophies in his work. We have a great support system for contract stars and filmmakers at Digital Playground that Nic will be able to be a part of. We're happy to have him on board."

Some of Digital Playground's previous projects include the multi-award winning and best selling DVD series in history, Virtual Sex, as well as All Star and Island Fever, both titles have dominated adult rental and sales charts throughout 2001. Joone's most recent directorial release, Forbidden Tales, starring Digital Playground's exclusive contract girl Tera Patrick, has already received wall-to-wall rave reviews from critics and several nominations plus it currently holds the #1 spot on DVD sales charts.
