NORTHWEST WILD SIGNS MAJOR DEAL!

Dear Steve,

Although it’s been a while since we’ve sent an update on Northwest Wild and SportsLife Media; Jeff and Steve have some major announcements to make.

First and foremost Season One of NORTHWEST WILD has been picked up by DISCOVERY CHANNEL INTERNATIONAL!

This news now slates NORTHWEST WILD as an International television series, featured in more than 100 countries world-wide and broadcast to 38.4 million households. Not too shabby for two dudes from Durango, Colorado!

NORTHWEST WILD MOVEMENT

Since we broadcast our series on Comcast SportsNet Northwest and Comcast SportsNet California last fall, we have partnered up with CABLEready to distribute our series to cable TV companies worldwide. CABLEready is a leading distributor of independent television programming to a worldwide cable television marketplace. CABLEready was able to secure a three year distribution deal with Discovery.

With this deal in the Central and Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa region, our goal is to secure separate broadcast agreements with Discovery’s additional worldwide affiliates, including the USA market.

We are also in the process of beginning pre-production on Season Two of NORTHWEST WILD. While we work on Season Two, our first season is scheduled to premiere January 1, 2012 to the countries listed below.

Once we receive the broadcast dates and times, we will communicate them to all our friends who live in the broadcast areas.

Thank you for your continuing support!

- Jeff and Steve Engman

SPORTSLIFE AND UNCAGE THE SOUL TEAM UP

Starting in July of 2011 Steve Engman and SportsLife Media made the move to team up with John Waller and Uncage the Soul Productions.

For those of you who don’t know John Waller, he is the lead videographer on NORTHWEST WILD and a huge part of the shows success. Since the teaming up, there have been some amazing projects completed and some huge early success. The following is a list of some of the latest projects:

John Waller’s documentary film Treeverse was accepted and featured @ the 2011 Banff Mountain Film Festival.
