The veteran filmmaker, who is celebrating his 21st year in the business, was honored by the top industry trade journal with a nod in the category of Best Directing – Banner/Network for 2022, in recognition of his work with the Dogfart Network, as well as Bang.com.
The adult film director is reaping the rewards of his outstanding talents and hard work this year with a prestigious AVN nomination, induction into NightMoves Magazine’s Hall of Fame, and a 2nd Place finish at Las Vegas’ 360 Car Show.
“I’m really, really, thankful that AVN has made a point to recognize my work, drive, and creativity, and I’m so incredibly thankful that I’m still receiving Best Director Nominations from AVN long after my first AVN Best Director Nomination in 2007,” said Miles Long.
“A Best Director Nomination is really a team effort – after all my years in the Army, I understand the importance of teamwork – we worked hard together to give 110% because we all wanted to do something extra-special every day we came to work – and I humbly accept that on behalf of the companies that hired me, the crew that worked so hard with me all year, and all the talent who worked with me this year.”
The NightMoves Awards induction is Long’s fourth (he is also an AVN, XRCO and Urban X Hall of Famer), and Long is a high-profile and widely-read contributor to the magazine, thanks to his revealing NightMoves Q&A interview series ‘Up Close and Personal’.
Long’s nomination and Hall of Fame induction come right on the heels of his recent success at the 360 Car Show in Las Vegas for his award-winning, published and manufacturer-sponsored Subaru Forester build. The 3-year build had Long searching for rare non-US parts all over the world, which he imported just for this build, and proved to be such an impressive entry that the judges awarded him 2nd place in the Subaru WRX category.
“It’s been an amazing journey building my latest show car, especially since three years ago I knew absolutely nothing about Subarus, and now, not only have I become a go-to-subject matter expert on the SG Platform Foresters, I’ve made many friends all over the world searching for rare parts, started an online community which helps fellow Subaru owners share ideas, find parts, and connect, and led to Sponsorships with over a dozen major manufacturers who believed in my vision for my build. It was especially awesome because my beloved Foz has been featured in a recent centerfold layout with my Bestie Jayden Cole as well.”
Long has not been sitting idle on the mainstream front either, having recently shot the latest four installments of the Lingerie Fighting Championships: LFC 32, LFC 33, LFC 34; which were in Sturgis, South Dakota during the world famous motorcycle rally; LFC 35 on Halloween in Las Vegas, producing shows for the LFC network, doing the network’s photography for their Fighters, photography for their Sponsors, and recently being interviewed on the LFC Network as well.
“It’s been very gratifying to know that my Photography and other Work Skills translate so well in to so many other areas and endeavors. I’ve always felt like the experience I gained in this business, and my drive to be creative has managed to open many doors for me and I’m quite thankful that,the LFC Network continues to encourage me to be creative and appreciates my work so much.”
