NEWS: OnLine Production Services & Black Talent News Launch BTN Online Talent Directory

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- OnLine Production Services, Inc. (OnLine) (OTC Bulletin Board: ONPS) has signed an agreement with Black Talent News -- the industry`s leading Black entertainment trade publication -- to provide a searchable Black Talent database called The BTN OnLine Directory. The announcement was made today by OnLine president Aerock Fox.

Founded in 1995, OnLine released its first software product: the Casting Workbook (www.castingworkbook.com). Its advanced design quickly made it the preeminent online breakdown and communication package in the film and television industry. Today, the Casting Workbook is known as the busiest Internet casting service boasting up to 65,000 agency portfolios, over 400 feature film, television and commercial breakdowns and 2000 roles cast electronically each month.

Black Talent News (www.blacktalentnews.com), dubbed "The Voice of Black Hollywood," is the only Black entertainment industry trade publication. With a readership of more than 20,000 (including industry professionals and the general public), Black Talent News is sold on over 300 newsstands in the Los Angeles area as well as select outlets in New York, Chicago, Atlanta, Baltimore, Washington DC, San Francisco, Oakland and San Diego.

"The design and architecture of the BTN OnLine Talent Directory, based upon the backbone of the Casting Workbook, will incorporate actors, writers, models, dancers, directors, producers, musicians and production personnel. Breakdowns and casting notices will be posted daily in addition to production, development and other entertainment-related jobs. The BTN OnLine Talent Directory will be a `one stop` resource for Black talent in North America," says OnLine`s Los Angeles Manager, Bonnie Abaunza.

"Black Talent News and OnLine recognized the critical need for providing access to an underrepresented community in the entertainment business, particularly as the industry responds to challenges to increase minority representation in television and film for on-screen and behind-the-camera talent," says Tanya Kersey-Henley, publisher and editor-in-chief of Black Talent News.

The BTN OnLine Talent Directory will also feature personalized web-pages for Black talent, which can be accessed by over 300 casting directors and producers internationally. Each talent web page will include an 8x10 photo and resume or profile. Directors will post their reels and writers will post their scripts and/or treatments. Production personnel can post their resumes.

Other services currently available include from OnLine include Talent Scout (www.thetalentscout.net), Model Scout (www.themodelscout.com) and Commercial Production Software (www.productionworkbook.com).

Besides Los Angeles, the OnLine currently has offices in Vancouver and Toronto, with plans for additional U.S. locations and worldwide offices.

OnLine is publicly traded on the OTC: BB, news, msgs trading symbol (ONPS).

`Hollywood Is Starving for New Content`



"Hollywood is starving for new content. Broadband is the future."

OnLine Production Services, a Canadian-based casting database founded four years ago, launched its service in LA. Among the several Internet-accessible casting sites, OnLine claims to be the most comprehensive, with complete casting breakdowns, the only directory of Latino talent and Internet-based software that allows casting directors to find talent anywhere in the world with the push of a button.

Instead of relying on mail and courier services to deliver packets - photos, resumes and video of talent - casting agents can immediately access the service`s member list, photos, video clips and resumes.

Although the majority of casting directors, agents and agencies in Hollywood still use the traditional means of getting casting breakdowns, co-founder Susan Fox said that once people start using the technology, it is hard to turn back. On average they receive more than 60,000 agent submission packets a month.

"One day they discover this wonderful button that sorts all of their stuff. It`s a curve from there," she said. "People have to be ready to embrace it and then they are transformed."

Signs an Agreement for Australia/New Zealand Joint Venture

The JV Plans to Launch the Casting Workbook as the First Electronic Casting Service to Connect Australia/New Zealand/Canada and the U.S.
LOS ANGELES, Sept. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- On September 8th, OnLine Production Services, Inc. (OnLine) (OTC Bulletin Board: ONPS) signed an agreement to introduce OnLine`s services -- in particular the Casting Workbook into the Australian and New Zealand market place with Richard Stockton Jabara of Capitol Pty.Ltd., Melbourne Australia. Both the Australian and New Zealand industries are experiencing strong growth in overseas productions which include George Lucas` Star Wars 2 and 3.

OnLine (www.onps.com) is the creator of Casting Workbook www.castingworkbook.com, the most used Internet casting service that hosts up to 60,000 agency portfolios, 400 feature film, television and commercial breakdowns (projects) with 2,000 roles (jobs) cast electronically each month. Richard Stockton Jabara is a member of the Screen Producers Association of Australia, (SPAA) and has been involved in the Australian Film Industry with film funding and industry project management. He has a 20 year history in the Public Relations/Marketing Industry with clients such as Alcoa, Telstra and World Expo 88. Mr. Jabara is also involved in venture capital funding and several successful web projects including www.creditcheck.com.au.

V.P. Marketing Susan Fox says, "We have been highly successful with our service (Casting Workbook) in Canada which relies heavily on the Hollywood connection for their $2 Billion annual production. We understand that the Casting Workbook`s appeal is the casting professional`s ability to have instant access to portfolios saving tremendous time and money in couriers and duplication. With Australia, the appeal is even greater. Photos and tapes can take as many as 4 days to arrive by courier, reducing the opportunity for those actors when decisions are made quickly using readily available information. With the growing number of Australian productions and the new Fox studio in Sydney, Australian actors are in demand. Our initial research results indicate strong interest from leaders in the casting industry for immediate access to Australian and New Zealand performers."

Los Angeles Manager Bonnie Abaunza, who lived in Australia and worked with Australian directors Simon Wincer, Gillian Armstrong and Nadia Tass, says, "American studios are increasing feature film production in Australia and New Zealand because of the attractive locations, first rate facilities and extensive and impressive pool of talent in front of and behind the camera. With the Casting Workbook, American casting directors will have immediate access to actor portfolios thereby expediting the casting process. Australian and New Zealand actors will be seen by the producers, creative people and decision makers in the United States, Canada and Europe."

Other services currently available include from OnLine include Talent Scout (www.thetalentscout.net), Model Scout (www.themodelscout.com) and Commercial Production Software (www.productionworkbook.com).

Besides Los Angeles, the Company currently has offices in Vancouver and Toronto, with plans for additional U.S. locations and worldwide offices.

OnLine is publicly traded on the OTC: BB, news, msgs trading symbol (ONPS).
