Hey MySpace Friends,
This is Scott over here at Accent Media. We are beginning to pull some of our extreme sport videos together for distribution, thru our production peers, “Stuck In Ohio” productions.
Dan over at “SIO” has been compiling together some awesome video, (be sure to link to their MySpace page in our “Top Friends” section), and Accent Media is out to get that talented group of Extreme Sport enthusiast’s noticed and hopefully a distribution deal.
Currently Dan is putting together his videos just for friends and family, and using unlicensed music that goes great with the video. In order to distribute the videos, we have to have a license or rights to any music we use. Now sure, as a full fledged professional production house, we have licensed music for our commercials and long form productions, but nothing that really ROCKS or that Dan can use to inspire himself to add to his videos.
WE NEED OUR MYSPACE BAND FRIENDS HELP!!! Do you want help getting your band noticed?? Want YOUR music to be featured in an upcoming Stuck in Ohio or Accent Media production?? We will give you all the credit and promote you along side our videos for royalty free music by yourself or your band. Of course this must be original music that you have created, not a cover you have made of another bands music.
IF we get one of our awesome videos distributed, we even might be able to share a percentage of the profits with you or your band. Think of the exposure as skateboarders, snowboarders, bmx’ers, water skiiers, motorcycle and more extreme sports fanatics are flying thru the air, and doing fantastic stunts set to YOUR music.
Hey, if we like your music, we may even produce, record and film your next or very first Music Video, who knows!! If you are interested in giving Accent Media and Stuck in Ohio Productions, permission to use your music, we guarantee full credit and as much exposure to your band as possible. Think of the possibilities.
Contact me, Scott, Director of Sales and Marketing here at Accent Media, if you are interested in learning more, and would like to send me a copy of your demo or current self-produced CD. You can contact me thru here at MySpace, or email me at : SFullerton(at)accentmediaonline.com I look forward to hearing from you………Thanx

Well, you can’t win ‘em all, as they say, and it looks like we didnt place in the last two contests we entered. As I told you about in our last post, we were waiting to find out about our Accent Media Team Member’s entrants in the “Share the Air” contest, and their audition film for Steven Spielberg and Mark Burnett’s new reality series about up and coming filmmakers, “On The Lot”. Unfortunately, our Share the Air entry didnt come in the top 3 spots, though we are still very proud of it, we definitely think the winner deserved it as well.
As far as our entry into the On The Lot reality show competition, we were hurt by a couple of factors. First the guys decided to do it on a whim and ended up filming the project in like 5 hours, (On Location!!!!), and put the edit together in about 3 days on their own time, in addition to doing their jobs here at Accent. Because of deciding to enter so late, the entry was not submitted until the final week of the competition, whereas other films had been looked at, rated and commented on for up to 6 weeks or more. Secondly, there was trouble uploading our film, we had to do it 4 times, all because of some problems on the website for the show. We were told it would not effect our chance to be evaluated or entered even though it didnt post until a week after the official deadline to enter, so who knows. Finally though, we are happy that those who were able to see it when it finally posted really enjoyed the original storyline with the fantastic twist they put in it, and thought it was very well put together for a last minute short film. I want to congratulate all of our guys for trying, and we encourage them to keep entering contests, we know they are bound for the winners circle one of these times soon!!

We just dont know!! Panasonic was supposed to announce the winners of the “Share the Air” contest on March 1st. It is now March 8th, a week later, and no results posted or even winners notified that we know of. If you havent checked out Kevin and Dan’s entry in the contest, GO HERE, to watch their video. It’s under Kevin DeOliveira’s name and is titled, “Mixtape”.
As far as our 5 minute movie short for the “On The Lot” contest with Mark Burnett and Steven Spielburg, their video is now up on the site, and we would appreciate you checking it out and letting us know what you think. We are hoping to get thru to the next round on that one, but time is running out to find out. You can watch Kevin, Steve, and Frank’s short film, “Porcelain,” by GOING HERE. Please let us know how we did. We will keep you updated if we hear anything. This is our first attempts at entering any contests here, and we are excited about them and hope to try for more in the future……AM
