Career

Tanya Hyde began as a hardcore actress in the mid-90s, performing in such titles as Cumming to Ibiza, but soon moved into directing. Between 1998 and 2000, she directed five films for Private Media Group's Pirate Video Deluxe series, all featuring Hungarian porn star Monique Covét in the lead role, the first of which was Xtreme Desires. As a result, Covét quickly became one of Private's most popular and best-known starlets, and Hyde likewise acquired a reputation for her stylish and imaginative brand of fetish-oriented hardcore eroticism. British porn actor Tony De Sergio and French porn actor Kevin Long have also appeared in many of Hyde's films from this period and after.

In 2001, Hyde made the hardcore film Wasteland in Amsterdam for Jaded Pictures; and in 2003, she made the lesbian-themed fetish feature Tanya Hyde's World Without Men for MSS Productions.

Her technical style is characterized by frequent use of colored filters, slow and fast motion photography, unconventional camera angles, dark atmospheric lighting and studio-dubbed soundtracks. To date, she has directed more than 30 films.
