Founded in 1999 by Steve Scott and veteran director Ed Hunter, Third World Media is recognized in the adult industry as one of the first producers of entertainment featuring authentic ethnic performers exclusively from outside the United States.〔X, Nelson: "Third World Media: First Rate Entertainment," August 2007, pg. 144.〕 ==Company history== The company, initially named Asian Eyes Pictures, placed an emphasis on Japanese hardcore content in its early years. As the company grew, it expanded its production to Southeast Asia and South America. In late 2006, Third World Media added Katana, a high-end Japanese lineup featuring popular Japanese AV stars and scripted, subtitled story lines.〔 Scott, a fluent Japanese speaker, credits the growth of his company to his extensive travels in Asia. When Third World Media entered the adult market, the Japanese product entering the US market was produced for the Japanese domestic market, where penetration is blurred, or "mosaiced" to conform with their laws. Third World Media produces movies for distribution outside Japan, and its hardcore products are shot without mosaics.〔 Like the company's Asian titles, its Latin titles, which include transsexual titles, are also produced to be sold primarily in the American market. Third World Media's veteran in-house director Ed Hunter makes frequent travels to South America to find performers who've never been seen by American audiences.〔 The company also added John Florian as its sales manager in January 2008.〔("Third World, Combat Zone Bring On John Florian" ), ''XBiz'', January 5, 2008.

Japanese AV idols Junko, featured in ''The Kimono Kronicles'',and Mirai Haneda, star of Hello ''Titty 3'', signed at Third World Media's 2008 AVN Adult Entertainment Expo booth.〔("Japanese Adult Stars to Sign for Third World at AEE" ), ''XBiz'', December 28, 2007.
