"Serving as the creative director of the Third Annual Pornhub Awards is an honor," said Martel. "This presents a wonderful opportunity to champion and celebrate sex positivity and help destigmatize sex work. Because let's face it, porn is a part of our lives. The actors who perform in the adult industry play a part in our learning, playing and growing. I'm glad Pornhub has provided us with an opportunity to celebrate them and their accomplishments. I have an incredible team of creatives working on this show. A dream team, if you will. The idea is to make something chaotic, overstimulating, entertaining and hilarious. I hope everyone enjoys the show!"
Part of the production for the show will be executed with a stellar team comprised of artist Geoffrey Lillemon, who works with digital media on various platforms connecting technical innovation with nouveau aesthetics, visual demagoguery, and hyper sensationalism; Thomas de Rijk, an Amsterdam based 3D artist, director, and musician; Benjamin Lemoine a French 3D artist and Cool 3D World, a collaborative multimedia project between digital artists Brian Tessler and Jon Baken. Tessler and Baken have created hundreds of animated shorts and images. In addition to projects with Nike, Balenciaga, and Adult Swim, their work has been exhibited and screened worldwide.
