Corbin Fisher (and sub-studios)

Corbin Fisher has been publishing for decades and has released, re-released, remastered, and redistributed their scenes over time. There’s a lot of nuance as a result and I am looking to get a consistent set of standards that can be applied to the scenes.

This initial post is intended to be a living document with the standards. I’m hoping to convert it to a wiki as a result.

Performers

Name / Disambiguation

Corbin Fisher reuses names from time to time, and as a result many databases indicate this by numbering performers. If the performer is not known outside of Corbin Fisher by a different preferred name, StashDB expects the performer’s name from Corbin Fisher to be used and that they are disambiguated using the year they started performing.

Examples:

Scenes

Studio scene codes

Corbin Fisher historically numbered their scenes using a studio-specific prefix followed by the next available number for scenes for that studio.

In January 2014, Corbin Fisher stopped numbering scenes for the Amateur College Men sub-studio, ending with ACM1414. Unofficial studio codes have continued being used within the community following the previous pattern, but these are considered unofficial and should not be used as studio codes for scenes within StashDB.

In January 2014, Corbin Fisher stopped numbering scenes for the Amateur College Sex sub-studio, ending with ACS546. Unofficial studio codes have continued being used within the community following the previous pattern. This pattern was confirmed with Corbin’s Coeds re-releases of ACS scenes, up until 2016 when Corbin’s Coeds was discontinued. Unofficial studio codes are considered unofficial and should not be used as studio codes for scenes within StashDB.

In October 2015, Corbin Fisher removed the dedicated website for CF Select scenes and as such stopped numbering scenes for CFS, ending with CFS0635.

Performer scene aliases

Performer aliases should be set, when needed, to match the performer as they are shown on the Corbin Fisher website. This is generally only the first name, with some rare exceptions, and should not include any numbers.

Links

A link to the scene on Corbin Fisher should be included on all scenes submitted to StashDB. If a scene has been removed, an archived version of the link is acceptable to verify metadata.

Remasters / Re-releases

Corbin Fisher started filming their scenes in high quality (usually 1080p) in late 2007, but they still continued to release scenes in lower quality through the end of 2012 for compatibility reasons. As a result, there are about 5 years of scenes which Corbin Fisher is now remastering and re-releasing using that original higher-quality recording.

Remastered scenes from Corbin Fisher should be created as separate scenes within StashDB, following the general guidelines on remasters and re-releases. These can have the production date set to the same production date as the original release, or set to the month/year of the original release date if the production date is not known. These scenes should have the “remaster” and “re-release” tags added them to indicate that they are not the original release.

Corbin Fisher has had multiple sub-studios throughout the years and as a result have re-released many of their scenes across these studios. Some of these scenes were re-released at the same sub-studio multiple times, or were remastered later on and re-released at a new sub-studio with the improved quality. These scenes should have the “re-release” tag added to them to indicate that they are not the original release.

Given the prevalence of unofficial studio codes for Corbin Fisher scenes, should we allow them on StashDB?


It is my opinion that we should allow them to be used on StashDB given how prevalent they continue to be. They continue to be helpful in matching scenes across databases and confirming that the scene you’re looking at is a re-release or a remaster, or that it’s the original.

To give a fun example, you can type “corbin fisher ACM3050” into your favorite search engine and you will almost certainly get results indicating that this scene would have been “Beckett Feeds Chris”. This includes results from WAYBIG, QueerClick, and Corbin Fisher itself.

Some earlier Corbin Fisher scenes were released in multiple parts to reduce the download size, something which was very common at the time. How should we indicate the different parts within the titles?


This is something lightly touched upon in the StashDB guidelines with the general recommendation being to indicate the specific part in a way that aligns with other scenes from the studio. The convention for Corbin Fisher scenes appears to be to suffix individual scenes with “Part #”, indicating which part they were. This includes the first part, which should be suffixed with “Part 1”. The part number should be represented as a numeral instead of as the word for the number, so “Part 2” instead of “Part Two”. There should not be a separator in between the title and the part number.

Some examples:

Note that not all titles match this pattern currently and edits should be submitted to correct them when they are identified. Also note that all parts of a scene are released on the same day, they are not released on different days like other scenes.
