2012 has been quite a year for Christian Owen! As Hot House Director of Production Christian runs a very tight ship overseeing the entire production department where he wears many hats. Not only does Christian direct the movies, he casts them, designs the sets, and often runs the camera. In addition to that, he is responsible for all the behind-the-scenes tasks including scouting locations, booking travel arrangements, budgeting, and managing his top-notch production team. This year Christian has directed some amazing hits including the Hot House blockbusters Sektor 9, Kiss Lick Suck Fuck, and The Dom as well as the Club Inferno hits Take The Plunge, Wrecking Crew and Punch In Punch Out, to name a few. In recognition of his hard work and excellence Christian was named into the Grabby Wall of Fame this year at the annual Grabby Awards! Christian’s birthday is Sunday, December 9! Join all of us here at Hot House and wish Christian a happy birthday on Facebook or Twitter!

Christian’s “office” the cavernous Hot House studio.

Christian filming in Palm Springs, one of our favorite destinations and the home of our award-winning Trunks series.

Oh yeah, he also casts, directs and shoots our Backroom Exclusive Videos and our Hot House Live shoots!

On the set of Fisting Playground – a twisted adult playground designed straight out of Christian’s twisted mind!

Never one afraid to get in there and do whatever needs to be done, Christian makes sure J.R. Bronson’s ass is camera-ready!

When cameras are down Christian and his team does what everyone else in the world does – get on your cell phone.

Sometimes the shoots run long – and it takes it’s toll…

Christian is always looking for the biggest cocks in the business and he finds them!

Happy Birthday Christian. Here’s to many more years of filthy gorgeous hits!
