420 Entertainment Group To Fire Up 420TV
VOD Channel Offers Collection of Content
Covering All Things Cannabis
Los Angeles - April 20, 2017 (Investorideas.com Newswire)
Recognizing the increasing entrenchment of cannabis in the global zeitgeist,
420 Entertainment Group, comprised of OWNZONES Media Network, the upstart
global OTT technology/entertainment hybrid company, along with cannabis
entrepreneurs Genesis Media and Alex Nahai Enterprises (ANE), will launch
420TV, a new video-on-demand channel, hailing the wonders of weed.
420TV will feature original, multi-episodic series, as well as
long- and short-form news, information and entertainment content focusing on
all things cannabis. All content will be shot in 4K.
The
announcement was made today by Dan Goman, CEO at OWNZONES, and Alex Nahai, CEO
at ANE.
Available this fall through the OWNZONES.com platform, 420TV is
the first premium 4K video-on-demand network to tap into cannabis' growing
prominence in today's mainstream lifestyle. Cannabis is projected to be a $44
billion industry in the next three years, according to Marijuana Daily News.
420TV expects to attract viewers across generations, ranging
from millennials to boomers who are either curious about or converted to the
cannabis lifestyle. While the channel will launch on OWNZONES.com, and its
mobile applications, it will quickly expand through OWNZONES' worldwide
multi-platform distribution network, utilizing the full spectrum of OWNZONES'
capabilities, including programming, technology and global distribution.
"The nation's evolving laws, growing interest and changing
attitudes have created a multitude of opportunities to educate, entertain and
expand public acceptance of cannabis, in all of its various applications,"
said Goman. "As a hybrid technology and entertainment company, OWNZONES is
uniquely positioned to capitalize on the explosive growth of the marijuana
industry. We have found the ideal partner in Genesis with years of expertise
and credibility in the cannabis business and will provide 420TV a real inside
perspective in this burgeoning space."
"This is an industry with many benefits, and we are
creating an effective and engaging means for promoting established companies
and new brands to consumers. 420TV will provide that connection. The 4K video
on-demand service is just the beginning – we intend to establish 420TV as a
franchise brand for multiple lines of related businesses," Nahai added.
420TV's news, information and entertainment programming
currently in development includes:
Pot Cast – Daily news programming chronicling the advent of the
legal marijuana industry. With a team of 60 journalists nationwide, Pot Cast
will present short-form news segments on the political, business, financial and
cultural aspects surrounding the disruptive rise of this new industry.
Signature segments include "Pot-Counter-Pot" and "This Week in
Pot History."
Medical Marijuana Miracles – True stories of real people who
have used medical marijuana for unique relief of symptoms and diseases.
Marijuana Moguls – Fascinating series about the bold new
entrepreneurs emerging in the cannabis industry.
Cannabis 411 – An informative and educational series covering
every step from how to grow weed to how to consume it.
Doug Lee, OWNZONES Programming Head, will oversee the original
programming line-up and manage the day-to-day business of 420TV. Lee is a
seasoned media executive with over 25 years of experience in global
entertainment, having held senior programming and channel positions at HBO,
News Corp. and MGM Studios.
420TV will deliver dozens of hours of original programming
produced exclusively for the multi-platform channel, in addition to acquired
long and short form entertainment. Other content categories in development
include fashion, comedy, music and animation as well as acquired feature films,
documentaries, music and live streaming events.
