Name: Alexandre Peccin
BellaClub´s Director
When I was a little boy I never thought the Playboys I hid under the bed would have taught me so much. It was as if those pictures could hypnotize me. Little did I know it was a learning process – besides being something pleasurable, obviously.
In 2000 I was invited to direct a weekly TV show, something I´d never done in my life. As I had some free time, I thought it could be a nice idea, so I went for it. With the success of the show, producers told me maybe I should bring some models to it. That worked well and it was when I decided I would bring the show into the internet – which was still quite a new technology in Brazil at the time.
In February 2001 BellaClub went online for the first time. We were the second Brazilian website working with sexy photo shoots and we grew continuously and quickly.
It all started with photographer Pedro Todorovic. I still remember the first model, the first photo shoot, the Sony Mavica digital camera – which had just been released and used to save all the data in floppy disks. We used this same camera for filming. Everything was simple and economic. By the way, the only thing I haven´t done in BellaClub was IT. I´ve done all the rest, even makeup retouches.
I also remember the first time a model felt more comfortable in front of the cameras and wanted to take her clothes off – which was a problem, because at the time we used to do sexy shootings, but no naked chicks. She almost gave us all a heart attack, all the team was nervous.
At the time we could count on many people free of charge, which was the case of photographer Pedro Todorovic, makeup artist Robson, Cirio Sens, Cris Peccin, Julio de Leon, among others.
After that other professionals started working for us, like Walmor de Oliveira, Marcos Muniz, Leila Scheer, Romulo Rosa, Mariana Goulart, Sidney Kair... And the team at the office, too: Felipe Volpato, Marina Carioni, Thiago Luz, Marcelo Pereira, Rod, Junae, Jana Meneghel, Sonia, Luana Neves, Fernanda...
The site has changed a lot – for the better – and so have its team. Nowadays we need from 7 to 15 people to work on a photo shoot. Our equipment is modern and consumes about 150GB of information per model.
For these past ten years, we have photographed over 400 models, we got rid of more than 3.000 underpants and 3.000 bras, and accumulated over 4 million pictures and 1.000 hours of filming - all that with lots of laughing, work, troubles, parties, trips, business and contracts.
The site was first opened in Brazil and is now in Portugal, US, England and Mexico. Our content is sent to mobiles from over 90 different countries and for TV in about 130 places.
Wow, that´s a lot of work!
We have had many famous models posing for us, but BellaClub´s characteristic is discovering new faces and talents before the competition. That is why we have decided that we would be different from the others and bring a new face for our ten-year anniversary.
Ten years have passed and we are proud of our work, and of our visitors and followers, who are always helping us with tips, opinions and even telling us off sometimes.
In the name of our team, I would like to thank you for your support and offer a toast to these 10 years online. You are the reason we are here today and you deserve the most beautiful women in your computer each and every day.
Thank you!
