Webisode Series “Palmetto” looking for Corporate and Individual Sponsors

May 30, 2007

Morgan Films Entertainment, LLC is now accepting corporate or individual sponsors for their upcoming Webisode Series entitled “Palmetto.” Details

Follow.

What it is: “PALMETTO” is a TV style internet series called a webisode series.

Our characters: There are 5 main characters: Tyler, Garrett, Hunter, Mallory, and

Amy. They are sophomores and juniors in high school. In addition to meeting them, throughout the course of the first webisodes we get to know their families and other friends as well.

What we’re going to do: Currently, we have 5 full seasons of webisodes mapped out. Each webisode will be approximately 40 minutes of run time. The first webisode, the Pilot, will be made available for a free download for anyone who wants to watch. The second and each following webisode will be a “pay-perview” with each download costing only $1. We feel that with our marketing plan, this series could reach hundreds of thousands of viewers.

When the webisodes are going to air: We are going to begin filming June 8 th . We have a total of 36 production days through the end of August planned in order to complete filming the first 3 webisodes. We anticipate launching our first webisode September 18, 2007.

Distribution: The pilot webisode will be freely distributed on every known online video website. This would include, Apple’s I-Tunes, Youtube.com,

Google Video, and Yahoo Video among others (we have a total of 16 video sites planned at this time). Each webisode after that will be a pay-per-view and only viewable through our secure server. However, there will be “trailers” for the following webisodes placed on each of the original 13 video sites enticing viewers to purchase and view subsequent episodes.

Who else is doing this: Every major network is airing their episodes on their website. TV Show enthusiasts often visit the network website, Apple’s I-Tunes, or various other podcasting sites to download and view their favorite shows.

However, a new series entitled “In the Motherhood” staring Leah Remini has just started airing their webisodes. ( www.InTheMotherhood.com

) “In the

Motherhood” is shown only on the internet. Sprint and Suave are their major corporate sponsors. The show’s target demographic is mothers. They invite mothers to share stories, vote on the funniest stories, and offer prizes.

We feel that our target demographic of males and females ages 13 to 45 is a much wider and more lucrative demographic. Our target audience will live in the US and Europe, and be middle to upper middle class computer owning families.

How you can help: We’re currently looking for individuals or companies interested in being sponsors. Of course the most obvious way to become a sponsor is to make a monetary contribution. However, we are also very open to other forms of sponsorship such as helping us defray costs of promotional materials, donating food or beverages for our cast and crew, cross promotional advertising, donating items such as makeup supplies, or letting us use items you manufacture or sell to be used as props. You can even being a sponsor by letting us film at your location!

In exchange for sponsorship, we could air a commercial you provide during our webisode, do product placement within the scene, place your logo on our website, announce your sponsorship on our MySpace page, or name you or your firm in the beginning or end credits. Your level of sponsorship is negotiable. We do not have set thresholds in order for you to participate. To see our other sponsors, visit our sponsorship page at www.morganfilms.net/sponsors .

or our myspace page at www.myspace.com/PalmettoTheTVSeries . You could also contact me directly at chris@morganfilms.net

or on my cell at 407-427-3803.

Sincerely,

History:

"Palmetto" is a television style drama designed to be aired and distributed via online media.

Palmetto, FL. The webisodes will be 40-50 minutes long and will feature 5 teens, their parents, families, and friends. The target demographics include the 14-45 age brackets.

ACTING COACH KAREN STORMS SIGNS ON TO "PALMETTO"

Nationally known Acting Coach, Karen Storms has signed on to the crew of

Palmetto. Karen has been coaching actors all over the US for years and her students have been cast in TV sitcoms, soap operas, feature films and National

Commercials. “Getting to work with a coach like Karen Storms is like a dream come true,” commented executive producer, Christopher K. Morgan. ‘I know that anyone who comes out of her acting school is definitely someone I need to take a look at.”

After the Executive producers and casting director of Palmetto had cast three of

Karen’s acting students in lead roles, they knew she would be a perfect fit on this production.”‘ I am honored to be part of such a professional team as Morgan

Films, and to work with such a creative Director. I have been on sets with some of Hollywood’s best, and Chris Morgan is right up there with them,” said Karen.

“This is an amazing opportunity to have an on-going TV series being shot here in

Central Florida. The story line is compelling, the concept innovative, and it’s wonderful for actors to be a part of this without going to Los Angeles, Miami or

New York!” adds Karen.

Karen Storms accomplishments are nationally renowned. Through her years of being in the business, she has come to have her finger on the pulse of the entertainment industry. Her acting students benefit from her numerous contacts within the industry as well as her insights and excellent coaching. Her success stories are too numerous to even count.

From offering private coaching lessons, summer camps, workshops and classes,

Karen Storms has a full schedule. She keeps her classes small to offer better individualized attention to her students.

Having Karen sign on to be our acting coach is truly a blessing,” continued

Morgan. “Having her on our crew brings additional credibility, and increased enthusiasm from our cast and crew.”

New Television Series to be filmed in Central Florida – Broadcast on Internet

April 11, 2007

For the millions of television viewers, reality television is growing old. As evidenced with the downturn in ratings seen by FOX's "American Idol" and

ABC's "Dancing with the Stars," reality television is on it's way out...finally. But when they are gone, what will we have to talk about in the breakroom at work?

For the fans of good old-fashioned prime time television Morgan Films

Entertainment, LLC is announcing their forthcoming "television style" internet drama series, "PALMETTO." As evidenced by the explosion of YouTube, Google

Videos, and MySpace.com watching videos on your home computer is not as difficult as it once was. In the world of streaming video, high speed internet, and social networking sites, internet users such as "lonelygirl15" quickly gained steady viewership of her online diaries.

"We're not restricted to the four basic television networks anymore," commented

Christopher K. Morgan, Creator and Executive Producer of "PALMETTO." With the networks slashing budgets, canceling television shows, and the constant pressures of "sweeps week" it has become increasingly difficult to approach and get the attention of the corporate networks. Morgan continues, "With the popularity of internet video sites, launching a television style internet drama over the internet could result in a wider and more diverse audience than over the public airwaves."

Many ask, "What is 'PALMETTO' and how are you going to get people to watch?" As Morgan explained to his production team, "'PALMETTO' is about real people with real lives." Most non-reality television dramas focus on detectives, doctors, rich housewives, or worse yet spoiled rich kids.

"PALMETTO" is loosely based on five teenagers, their families, their triumphs, and their problems. Most teens, adults, and even grandparents will have a chance to identify at some point with the ongoing storyline.

When pushed on the subject of viewership, Morgan stated, "Well, hopefully word of mouth will be the number one way we get viewers, but just in case

we've established and already started implementing strong, methodical marketing plan." That marketing plan includes a profile on MySpace

(insert myspace profile link here) where fans have already started visiting and getting updates on the show's progress. Speaking of the show's popularity, Morgan said, "We just feel really good about how great a reception the internet community has already given us, and we haven't even launched the series yet! But its not just the internet community, I've already heard people around town talking about it"

Principal photography on "PALMETTO" begins June 8th and will be shot in the

Orlando, Florida area. Casting announcements will be made May 4th.
