Agent X – Streaming Now!

Agent X plans to meet her contact in an abandoned house. What she doesn’t know is that she’s been double-crossed. Instead, a government official is waiting for her. The interrogator plans to torture her for as long as it takes to get the information he needs. Will Agent X survive these ordeals, or will she spill the beans?

We continue adding films to our streaming channel. One of the latest is Agent X, you can Stream it, download it or get a DVD.

You can’t miss it. This is one of the earlier works with Amy who is the perfect Agent X. For some people this is her very best of the earlier work. What she goes through in this film goes beyond sanity. She can take a lot, indeed.

Amy is, of course, the central protagonist of the Amy Cycle of Films that started in 2005 and ended in 2015 when she moved to the north west of the United States to pursue one of her dreams, the highly academic world of passing her knowledge to others and that’s what she’s doing now.

That amazing and incredibly productive cycle resulted with around 20 films, some shorts, some music videos and at least three documentaries, that’s a lot of work for ten years. And of course some classics were produced, like Maleficarum, Justine, Olalla, great films that now are part of our Streaming Channel.

The next cycle began with a Nat Geo Documentary, ironic, because the 2005 cycle began with a Nat Geo Doc. The first big production was with Bea, The Passion of Isabel and more work was produced, films that included Mila and Dani, who joined Jac because of Justine, along with other great stars that came into the team, like Simonne, Ligia, Geraldine and others. That cycle has its apparent completion this year, 2025 and I wasn’t sure what exactly were going to be the changes that were surely coming.

I think I know what those changes will be. The one big change, or should I say, new way of doing things is the use of AI in our work. Really. AI changes things in ways we were not expecting or even thinking about. That’s the big change we were expecting and it does start a totally new cycle. It opens the world of film production to possibilities never considered before.

The cycles have one important element. One cycle in the 80s, had celluloid at the center of production. We distributed our work on FILM reels. In the 90s it was Video, we began distributing our work on VHS tapes. At the beginning of the milenium it was Digital video in its different stages, from SD to HD. We began sending our movies in DVDs. We’re entering a whole new system with its own characteristics where streaming is becoming the main way of distribution and AI is entering the world of production, in full. We’re adapting to this new world and we’re going to dominate it, completely.

The picture below is from a session for Crucified Four where Jac used live images, in this case of Ligia, as the Runaway Slave, walking into the market. Her acting was in front of the green screen, in costume, doing what the character does before stealing a loaf of bread. Later on Jac set that image on top of a background he created with AI and he loved the results.

The production time was almost the same as if it would be done in location. Many shots of Ligia doing what she does in the scene. But the location was Jac’s studio, and the entire cast was only Ligia. Dani was on hand to assist with the camera.

Jac will be doing more of the Market Sequence for Crucified Four next week, this time with Dani and Geraldine and probably Simonne and Mila. Who knows, maybe most of the movie will be done in front of a Green Screen. One very interesting thing is that he’s going to be calling actors for casting in the new movie, they will be doing their parts in front of the Green Screen and, as a matter of fact, they will be already acting in the movie.

Look at the picture. It’s very, very pretty.

I don’t understand why some people dream of AI replacing real actresses; it doesn’t appeal to me at all. I’m more interested in seeing real actresses in crucifixion films, not fictional AI-generated girls being crucified. The magic is lost if AI replaces real crucified women with fictional characters.

In our case we are not interested in replacing our amazing actresses with AI. We can use AI to add to a movie and to create some really great scenes that would be impossible to do without a few million dollars. I can imagine a scene as huge as any scene in The Passion of Christ, the Gibson movie, that cost 25,000,000 dollars. We could do something that would look like that with some imaginative good work and very little money.

During that same session Jac created a scene mixing the acting, and AI generating parts of the scene, where you can’t tell the difference between what’s only Green Screen with Ligia acting at the beginning the shot in front of the Green Screen, then AI working part of the shot using an image of Ligia interacting with characters it created, and finally Ligia, alone in front of the Green Screen, ending the shot.

Creating that scene was a challenge, Jac wasn’t sure about the outcome, but it worked out. Jac has most of the scene ready, from the time Taia, the runaway slave, arrives to the market, steals the loaf of bread, a soldier notices, to the moment she’s arrested, manhandled, part of her garment is pulled down exposing her breasts and the neck brace with a chain revealing that she’s a runaway slave and then taken away by the soldiers created by AI in front of dozens of people also created by AI.

When the entire sequence is done Jac will edit it, process it and make a clip that will be shared in some place yet to be decided. That sequence will include some cut aways to Paulina, Ide, Talissa and Sabina witnessing the event from different parts of the market, doing their dialogues, advancing the drama… in other words, the beginning of the film could be ready without us spending a lot of money in extras, going to the location, transporting them, feeding them, building sets, dressing them… etc, etc, etc. We’ll see.

In other words, I think the production of Crucified Four has begun.

Our Stream Channel is getting a bunch of more movies this coming week. We’re growing and Vimeo just added a lot more space for us to put in more films. Four times more capacity than we had, which was fine for most of the movies we have, but now we can have a whole lot more. Amazing! It means they like what they see as far as the channel growing and are encouraging us to grow and grow.
