Second Season of Club ComedyNet, the First Series Shot in HD Has a Message...
NEW YORK, NY--(MARKET WIRE)--Jun 3, 2008 -- As of this week, all-new programming for ComedyNet will be shot in full High Definition. This week, ComedyNet will resume its highly successful Club ComedyNet series. This stand-up comedy series utilizes several composite technologies allowing for ComedyNet's sponsor/advertisers to have their logos or messages embedded into the programming and also those messages can be animated or in motion.
"The idea is to allow for the content and its sponsor message to travel together wherever the programming is distributed, which includes all of ComedyNet's web syndication outlets as well as more than 16 million Free-On-Demand cable homes," said Jocelyn Bayle, head of affiliate sales for the network.
Technology upgrade and production coordination for ComedyNet is being handled by EZS Productions of New York City. "The conversion from Standard Definition to High Definition has been a steep learning curve for us. I am thrilled to have Ethan Sigman guiding us and building for us the tools to take us to the next plateau of broadcasting," said Mark Graff, CEO of ComedyNet.
Barely a year old, ComedyNet, which has quietly launched its ad supported free-on-demand programming to over 16 million cable homes, is in discussions with cable operators and satellite to home providers about the launching of ComedyNet as a fulltime HD channel and moving its on demand programming from Standard Definition to High Definition channel assignments.
Ethan Sigman has a wide and varied breadth of experience having worked with Mets, Yankees, Knicks, Mark Burnett and Donald Trump, his digital media company produces live events and content for all platforms from films, to TV and the Web. It is anticipated that Mr. Sigman will move his production operation into the ComedyNet studios.
ComedyNet had announced on April 10th that the Company had entered into a Letter of Intent to merge with Anywhere MD, Inc. (Other OTC:ANWM.PK - News) for the purpose of accelerating its business plan.
