Editors Note:

In our quest to bring you early-stage companies that have a viable business-model, we at Stockupticks were intrigued to hear that a respected member of the entertainment community had launched a new concept in motion picture and television production studios.  Do you remember when MGM and Universal were start-up ventures?  Yeah, I don't either.  But you can bet that the investors that funded their early success made a significant return on their investment. 

AmeriDreamEntertainment has a proven management team with the Hollywood pedigree necessary to be successful -- and they have the track record and focused direction to back it up.  AmeriDream's Chairman and CEO is Lang Elliott, founder of Tri-Star, and a respected Hollywood producer for over 30 years.  AMDR has an outstanding catalog of video entertainment and an impressive production schedule for current and future projects.

One of the central reasons we like this company is that it is focused on family-friendly productions. Recent blockbuster hits like Lord of the Rings, Spy Kids II and Return to Neverland have sent motion picture companies, TV networks, and cable broadcasters scrambling for material that is appealing to both children and adults.  AmeriDreamEntertainment owns numerous entertainment properties that literally fill the bill for 'E For Everyone' entertainment.

AMDR also knows the meaning of show-BUSINESS. The company provides an economical, lower-cost option for Hollywood-quality production, because it has set up operations away from central Los Angeles, near Palm Springs, California.  AMDR management understands the importance of diversification in entertainment channels.  Following in the path of Disney and Universal, the company has already begun collateral projects such as a theme-park design and monorail transportation services.
 

For an interesting look at a publicly traded company that has an established niche, solid same-industry management experience, a growing catalog and a vision for production and investment-growth, please read on ... 

 

AmeriDream has built a catalog that distinguishes it from its competitors. 

In the entertainment industry, AmeriDream is known as a highly respected source of family entertainment on video, cable and television and at the movie house. 


 
*** CURRENT PRODUCTIONS ***

AmeriDream has numerous proprietary projects underway and in various stages of development.  The company is currently in pre-production on a major motion picture titled “DORF: U.S.M.C.”  Tim Conway has contracted to star in his ongoing role as Dorf in this full length motion picture. 

AmeriDream is also currently developing ...

A reality-based television series, with the working title “Pursuit”, targeted for the large viewing audience currently involved with this popular series format. 

"The Power of Who Do",  a family-oriented live-action adventure film.  The main character is eight year old Meghan Fitzgerald.  The film follows her adventures when toy action figures come to life to save Meghan from the evil sorcerer Wizz Bane. 

"Stinkin' Badges", a live action comedy where a group of kids run afoul of the law and are given two choices: go to jail or join the Los Angeles Junior Police Academy.
 

*** THE CATALOG ***

A look at the the following excerpt from a recent news release clearly demonstrates AmeriDream's strategy to increase its catalog with properties that are family-oriented and possess a long "Shelf Life" to generate revenues.

AmeriDreamEntertainment, Inc.'s 
Wholly Owned Subsidiary, AmeriDreamInternationalDistribution, Inc. 
Acquires Autograph Celebrity Interview Series

Library of 44 Episodes of Autograph Series
in a Half Hour Format of Interviews With Celebrities 
Will Air in Cable and Television Markets

BERMUDA DUNES, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)- August 13, 2002-- AmeriDreamEntertainment, Inc. (NASDAQBB: AMDR), a Coachella Valley-based major motion picture, television production and distribution company, today announced that it has acquired the "Autograph" series, a library of 44 episodes of half hour format interviews with celebrities including Janet Leigh, Robert Duvall, Tom Cruise, Russell Crowe, Michael Caine, Ben Kingsley, Tim Conway, Connie Stevens, Martin Landeau, Marsha Mason, Michelle Phillips, Michael J. Fox, Tom Selleck, Henry Winkler and others. Autograph is hosted by the talented Agata Gotova and produced by Signature Films. 

"We are very pleased about this particular acquisition as it demonstrates our commitment to bring interesting programming into the AmeriDream family of entertainment," said Raylan (Ray) Jensen, president of AmeriDreamInternationalDistribution, Inc. "Currently we have 22 completed productions and in the next several months we will take delivery of  another 22 shows ready for distribution." 


AmeriDreamEntertainment, Inc., has concluded its negotiations with Grizzly Adams Productions, Inc., in acquiring their film library of approximately 465 titles. Most all of the film and television productions have been produced and exhibited over network broadcasting.  AmeriDream has structured an overall marketing plan to distribute and sell these titles to networks, station groups, cable networks, in television syndication, and in video and DVD markets worldwide. 

Grizzly Adams Productions, Inc., also has several fully developed network series, which AmeriDream will assist in producing and distributing.  This added product will continue to make AmeriDream's library increase in value each year and it launches AmeriDream into the network television series production business, working hand in hand with its feature film division. 


Among AmeriDream's past projects is “Dorf on Golf,” rated #1 in Video rentals and sales for 101 weeks as reported by Box Office Magazine. This video-pioneered a new venue for comedy production in the ‘made-for’ home video industry.

*** DISTRIBUTION ***

As the old axiom goes, 'it doesn't matter if it isn't seen.'   In no other industry are revenues more keyed to distribution. The entertainment trades will always announce how many theaters a movie opened in as an introduction to the films' success or demise. The same goes for video outlets.

The experienced management at AmeriDreams knows this fact all too well. AmeriDream has an established supply chain and is in position to funnel its products to market as they are developed.

AmeriDream intends to acquire properties produced by other independent producers and offer an alternative to traditional distribution.
 

*** THEME BRANDING ***

AmeriDream markets its products to families and its 'across-the-board' target audience has come to expect high quality products at a reasonable price and delivered in a regular and timely fashion. With this strength of consumer interest as its backbone, AmeriDream has looked down the road at the bigger picture and is developing a strategy of product  diversification to balance its approach to producing a healthy balance sheet. 

A New $200 Million Studio Complex is in the planning stages right now. The appeal of lowering production costs of movies and videos and giving regional residents a family-orientated destination for recreation and vacation is part of the theme-branding strategy at AmeriDream. Taking advantage of the lower cost of real estate in the Palm Springs, California area in comparison with high cost of real estate in Los Angeles county, AmeriDream is now in the planning stages of a state of the art major motion picture and television production studio and theme park in Coachella Valley, California.

Here are some ideas currently on the drawing board ...

This project has the support of local government 
and is estimated to fill a vital need in an already popular resort region
that has virtually no family entertainment facilities.

"We are looking forward to blazing a trail in the independent film production business 
by developing our own fully functional studio."

Lang Elliott, Chief Executive Officer.
