At XConfessions.com we are always looking for new ways to push the boundaries of our films with their aesthetics and cinematic qualities. When I received a confession about one man’s obsession with Daryl Hannah from the movie SPLASH, my brain started sparking off ideas like crazy. But of course, a mermaid was too obvious, so I though how cool it would be to have a MERMAN instead! Get a taste of mythological sex in IBIZA SPLASH CRUSH.
The first tricky part of this film was finding a performer who would be interested in playing the usually effeminate role. But when we came across the Ibizan Gabe Tonic with his octopus tattoos, mustache and sailor rings, we knew we had found the actor with the perfect aesthetic. He also lives by the sea so he was more than pleased to put on a merman tail!

That brings me to problem number two: finding a mermaid tail. If you’ve heard about the serge of mermaid schools popping up around the globe, you’ll know that these tails are in high demand. So we searched and had one flown all the way from America from The Mertailor. It was beautiful and I couldn’t wait to shoot with it!
To shoot this we went to a country house in the middle of the Costa Brava which had a wonderful pool. We decided to fill it with some fun inflatable toys and had myself and our Director of Photography Thais film underwater for the first time.

The backdrop looked beautiful behind Spanish performer Carolina Abril, for her second appearance on XConfessions since MY FIRST TIME EATING OYSTERS… AND PUSSY. She worked the lifeguard look incredibly well in a Baywatch inspired red 80s swimsuit, and yes we included a slow mo run as well.
