Hannover House Adds to Documentary Slate with Original Productions on UFOs and Dinosaurs
April 18 2012 - 8:00AM
Hannover House, Inc., the newly rebranded entertainment distributor
formerly known as Target Development Group, Inc. (Pinksheets:
HHSE), will continue to build its library of wholly-owned original
productions with two more made-for-video documentary specials this
year. The evergreen phenomenon of Unidentified Flying Objects
will be analytically studied and presented in "UFOs: The Definitive
Truth," which will feature the best evidence, analysis and expert
theories. "Dinosaurs Alive!" will be targeted for a pre-teen
audience, and will present both an educational and entertaining
study of these prehistoric giants.
Both programs will be produced and financed by Hannover House,
primarily utilizing the company's production equipment and
facilities, along with independent, producer-directors for each
show. Unlike most titles in the Hannover House library, these
programs will be wholly-owned assets, with worldwide rights in
perpetuity and limited or no third party participations, thus
maximizing the revenue potential for the company.
"We have identified both projects as highly-commercial video
concepts," said Eric Parkinson, C.E.O. of Hannover House.
"These programs will be fast, easy and inexpensive to produce, and
can be ready for release into the retail market before the end of
this year. Both titles are ideally suited for placement with
Hannover's key sell-thru video accounts," he concluded.
In the late 1980's, before 'Jurassic Park', Parkinson released
several Dinosaur themed video programs through Twin Tower
Enterprises, Inc., including "Dinosaurs", "More Dinosaurs" and
"Prehistoric World." The three titles sold over 500,000
copies and were among the top selling, independently released home
video titles of the 1980's. The release of Spielberg's hugely
successful "Jurassic Park" films in the 1990's raised the bar of
consumer expectations for how Dinosaur videos should look, thus
overshadowing the original Twin Tower titles. Parkinson
believes that the technical revolution of computer visual effects
and animation in recent years will make "Dinosaurs Alive" not only
financial viable, but visually competitive as well.
As for UFOs, Parkinson said that the recent explosion of
camcorders and mobile-phone video recording devices has
dramatically increased the quantity and quality of highly
intriguing footage. While most UFO sightings can readily be
attributed to ordinary phenomena, there are many cases which have
baffled scientists, experts and the most jaded of cynics.
"UFOs: The Definitive Truth" will attempt to balance on an
editorially neutral position, while presenting evidence and
analysis both for, and against, extraterrestrial explanations for
these unidentified sightings.
Hannover House, Inc. is a full-service media company operating
in all areas of domestic entertainment distribution, including
theatrical, home video, video-on-demand and television. The
company is publicly owned and traded on the OTC Pinksheets markets
under the symbol HHSE. The company reports that the
results for the first quarter of 2012 activities were profitable,
continuing the company's positive trajectory as the ninth,
consecutive profitable quarter (commencing with the company's
acquisition by Target Development Group, Inc., in December, 2009,
thus bringing Hannover House to the publicly traded market).
Hannover House has maintained the full reporting compliance
requirements as established for OTC market companies, and is taking
the additional and voluntary step of releasing its Q1 (2012)
financials to the Edgar reporting system, utilizing MacReport Media
to conform, format and post these results. The Q1 (2012)
financials for Hannover House are expected to be posted within the
next few days on both the OTC Markets site, and the Edgar site (via
MacReport Media).
