Nadia North Steps Things Up at North Pole Productions

This article originally ran in the June 2018 issue of AVN magazine. Click here to see the digital edition. Nadia North calls to mind Melanie Griffiths’ self-description in Working Girl: a head for business and a bod for sin. The leggy, curvaceous real estate agent turned porn star came by the AVN office to talk about her current projects, and it’s clear that she is every bit as serious about making adult movies as she is about putting together a big-ticket commercial property deal. Nadia fell into her new career when she married adult performer-director Peter North. An adult A-lister since the 1980s, Peter was no longer working in front of the camera. “He made a name for himself. He didn’t need to do it anymore,” Nadia explained. “But then I come along and say, ‘You know what? This is going to be super fun. We own a porn company! I have all these naughty thoughts. I get to see them acted out. I want to do this!” In 2018, Nadia is looking to step things up at North Pole Productions. “I’m really looking to do a lot this year. I’m on a mission. I like to do things and go straight to the top and really put myself into it,” she said. As part of her push for higher quality, Nadia notes, she hired a new artist to produce box covers for North Pole releases, and she brought on award-winning lensman Chris Streams as director of photography for the most recent movie, Mrs. Peter North: Black and Anal Edition. “I think he’s the best, so I hired him,” Nadia says. As with other North Pole titles, wholesale distribution is handled by Juicy Entertainment. “I’m trying to revamp our company,” she says. As part of that effort, she’s looking to step up the release schedule to two movies a month. One series will incorporate the Mrs. Peter North name. “This one is the Black and Anal Edition. The next one will be a different edition, maybe all girl/girl. That gives me options. That is exactly why I love it. What do I want to do today?” Peter has been content to stand by while Nadia explores what for her is a brand-new challenge. And she’s happily taken over. “I’m the one who wrote the Faithfully Unfaithful series and then came up with the titles and everything, so I’ve been pretty much booking all the talent and doing titles and pulling box covers, stills and images for the last year. I’m doing all the directing and I’m making it more elaborate. I’m writing scripts, and my intros are going to be way more elaborate.” She adds, “I have this little black book I take everywhere with me. It’s has scripts and ideas and titles. I just pull from those. I’m always changing things around.” As the name suggests, the Faithfully Unfaithful series celebrates the swinger lifestyle, as do the Mrs. Peter North titles. But Nadia does most of the swinging in these movies—which she says is just fine with both her and Peter. Speaking about the Black and Anal Edition, she says, “It’s all anal, because that’s my favorite. … I actually prefer to work with more than one guy. Peter thinks it’s great. And he’s almost always there if I’m shooting.” Her costars in the movie include Prince Yahshua—“I’ve with him before, but we get to do a one-on-one this time, so that was nice”—as well as some newer performers. One standout for Nadia was Isiah Maxwell. “He is so much fun. I told him, ‘You are going to go so far in this industry because you’re just right on point.’ He’s so nice and so polite. He’s not on his phone the whole time. He’s really into the passion.” In addition to performing, Nadia also wants to put more emphasis on directing other performers. “I didn’t get to work with too many girls and that was unfortunate, so this year I’ve got some girls that I’m keeping my eye on. … I want a girl who’s truly bi; I want a girl who’s really into it.” When Nadia spoke with AVN, she had just been shooting her next movie, Tight Teen Brats; the cast includes Kimber Woods, Carmen Caliente, Carolina Sweets, Norah Nova, Sadie Blake, Ramon Nomar and Mr. Pete. “I got the talent I wanted,” she said, adding that it involves “naughty teens who are blackmailing people. … I don’t want to do that whole step scenario. I don’t want to think that someone is hurting someone.” But she’s flexible on set, noting, “I actually have changed scripts after meeting the talent. I see their personality and ... ‘Hold on one second,’ I’ll go back to my laptop and just change it. … I’ll rewrite the whole thing because I want to see them shine, I want to see them get into it. I love it when there’s energy and it’s just fun to me. I try to perk everyone up if I see the energy go down.” Her enthusiasm for adult entertainment came about more through her own sexual appetites than from a desire to emulate other content producers. She didn’t watch porn at all, but she says she’s “a complete little nympho” and the scenarios she shoots come from her own mind. “It’s not from watching other people’s stuff. Just kind of like, you know, ‘I would like to see this.’ … It’s natural for me to envision things and fantasize. Obviously, there are certain things our fans want to see, that we get requests for, so I really pay attention to those, too. I do watch what titles are selling the most.” But it’s more than just business. “I love what I do. I love directing, I love performing. And I want it to show to the fans. This is a great job. I’m very fortunate. And I say that all the time. I’m very fortunate to run a production company and do what I want and be creative,” Nadia said. Also ahead in the future, Nadia said, is a project that will feature more of both Peter and Nadia. “We’re going to do another one, actually—me and Peter. But we’re going to do more [footage] of us. So each scene there will be a lot more of us together. So that will be a lot of fun.” Describing what this content will be like, Nadia said that fans will “see stuff that we have recorded on our phones, which is fun, exclusive stuff that will be a bonus on there too. We have some stuff where we’re in the Ferrari and we pull off the side of the road and I’m in this sexy dress … we’re going to put that in there too. Why not share that? We’re going to have a lot of fun.”
