SAN DIEGO, Dec. 16, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Agent155 Media Group, Inc. (Pink Sheets:AGMG), a Multi-Media provider of web-based content and media exposure for performers, models, filmmakers, athletes, artists and agencies, today announced the launch of www.agent155.com.
As part of its outreach, Agent155 produced a commercial available for viewing at http://www.agent155.com/agent155, featuring a model, artist, filmmaker and musicians that aired the month of July, 2004 in Regal Cinemas' (NYSE:RGC), United Artists Theatres and Edwards Theatres across the United States to over 12 million viewers. Agent155 will soon begin marketing in London, Berlin and Sydney, with more international cities to be added.
"I saw the ad at the beginning of a packed movie (Spider-Man 2) and since I didn't have a pen on me to write the Web address down, I gave up my seat to get one," said Killian McGregor, new Agent155 member and aspiring filmmaker. "What I have seen so far has made sitting in the back row absolutely worth it."
Are you sick of reality TV? Tired of being told who has talent and who doesn't? Corporate America and Hollywood often control the artists and athletes we see, hear and experience. Extremely passionate about the creative and athletic talent that most of us will never see, the team at Agent155 Media Group has launched a grassroots effort and emerged as a multimedia company where talent from around the world can be seen and heard at Agent155.com -- with video and lots of it, something radically different. Any performer, athlete, filmmaker, model, musician/singer, photographer and artist can be their own agent and upload trailers, short films, reels, MP3s, clips, photography, bios and other content, up to 500MB, on the secure site.
"Five years ago we had a vision. How could we bring the creative world together via video content?" said Christopher Martinez, founder and CEO of Agent155. "With the advent of broadband, digital video, digital cameras and MP3 technology, we saw a future where everyone would eventually start creating their own multimedia content and would stream that media from the Internet."
"Agent155 will also push this content through traditional channels like TV, radio, film and print. We plan to create our own films and commercials by using talent exclusively from Agent155.com, something that has never been done before," stated Martinez. "We plan to be the alternative for artistic and athletic talent -- the old rules of distribution do not apply in the digital age."
Not only do the artists and athletes gain much-needed exposure, industry executives can find fresh talent from anywhere in the world. Agent155 is adding an agency category for casting, booking, modeling and management agencies to post company profiles and criteria for taking on new clients. By adding the business arena to the artistic/athletic arena, Agent155 will help facilitate networking, connections and relationships with all parties.
"Agent155.com evolved out of my passion for creativity -- both its expression and its exposure," continued Martinez. "Our team has devoted years of hard work to make Agent155.com a street-level, creative arena, providing an affordable, high-quality online presence for the global artistic and athletic communities. We are putting the power back into the people's hands."
Agent155 Media Group, Inc. is based in San Diego where its' Web site and services are produced for worldwide distribution. The company's mission is to offer an affordable, high-quality online presence for the global artistic and athletic communities.
