Kay Brandt to Discuss Erotic Books and Films at Sexual Health Expo
LOS ANGELES, CA – Award-winning adult filmmaker Kay Brandt, who directed the upcoming Adam & Eve release “Adventures with the Baumgartners,” will be speaking on how erotic books and adult movies can improve sex at the Sexual Health Expo. She will speak from 3 to 3:20 p.m. on Saturday, February 4 and from 2:40 to 3 p.m. on Sunday, February 5.
The expo will be held at the California Market Center, 110 E. 9th St. Los Angeles, CA 90079.
“Speaking at the Sexual Health Expo is the perfect opportunity to expose people to the value of erotic books and adult films to enhance their love lives,” Brandt said. “I’m very thankful to the Sexual Health Expo for this opportunity to raise awareness and hopefully change lives and bring couples closer together.”
Brandt’s presentation is part of the Expo’s Intimate Talks speaker series. Presented by SHE Media, the two-day Sexual Health Expo offers participants an upscale sex education and wellness event, featuring workshops, speakers and exhibitors offering a variety of adult pleasure products.

Among media scheduled to participate are Bustle.com, Huffington Post, Marie Claire magazine, L.A. Weekly, Complex, KTLA-TV, Playboy TV, CBS and many others.
Brandt, who has been the break-out director from Adam & Eve’s acclaimed books-to-films series, will speak on the importance of sharing intimacy with a partner through the mutual enjoyment of erotic literature, whether current or classic as well as adult films in which both partners share an interest. The filmmaker and sexpert who will lead the intimate discussions, will be available at her booth to chat one-on-one with expo attendees all day on both days.
“Intimacy isn’t just sex and passion. It’s about sharing moments and making each other excited about being together,” Brandt said. “Erotic literature read aloud has the unique quality of making you both visualize the action and feel the passion and desire of the moment. Watching quality porn will have a similar effect as you identify with the characters and their interaction that will hopefully give you both ideas about pleasing one another.”
Brandt is known for her directorial work in last summer’s acclaimed Adam & Eve release, “Babysitting the Baumgartners” and its upcoming sequel, the written by New York Times bestselling author Selena Kitt, “Adventures with the Baumgartners.” The films are the newest for the prolific filmmaker who since 2009 has directed more than 40 adult movies, including many award-winning films for such companies as Adam & Eve, Digital Playground, Girlfriends Films and New Sensations.
Besides her work in the “Baumgartner” movies, Brandt is writing and directing a new genre of adult films based on erotic books. “Safe Landings,” a feature based on her dramatic romance novel as part of Adam & Eve’s books-to-films series that includes the “Baumgartners” movies. Brandt’s recently published first horror book “Soles,” is soon to be followed by other horror-themed novels that tap into her unique eclectic vision.
The Brandt-directed “Adventures with the Baumgartners,” is set for release in May along with author Kitt’s novel of the same name, marking the first time an erotic novel and accompanying motion picture will be released simultaneously.
