Kendo said: I am very pleased to move further ahead in my relationship with Beate Uhse and Daring Media Group. Since we started working together over a year ago, the results have been incredible, and we have been awarded at different shows including AVN in Las Vegas and Venus in Berlin. With Daring, I always liked the freedom they gave me to develop my creativity and the trust they placed on me so that I became even more motivated to deliver the best possible product. Now, I will be shooting a new movie per month, and I am already in talks with other Daring! directors to ensure that the cast, storyline, locations, etc., of everything they shoot is in line with the quality standards we have set for Daring!. Beate Uhse COO and Daring Media Groups Managing Director, Serge van der Hooft, said: Kendo working as Creative Director for Daring! was the next natural step for us to take.
