VIASTAR HOLDINGS, INC. (OTCBB:VISH) is engaged in development, production and distribution of entertainment related media for film, television, music and publishing interests.
The Company's portfolio currently includes ownership of Electric Kingdom Distribution, A.V.O. Studios, Moving Pictures International, Viastar Records, Viastar Pictures, Viastar Home Entertainment, and Quadra Records.
The company has existing music, film, distribution, and production capabilities, a current roster of prominent artists, publishing interest worldwide, and seasoned industry executives. These facts, coupled with their well established international distribution division, gives Viastar the marketing muscle and enhanced gross profitability of a major, while retaining the flexibility, creative freedom and economies of scale of an independent. By owning its distribution pipeline, Viastar has direct control over the flow of its products to 20,000 plus retail outlets, thus their gross margins are effectively double that of a traditional content provider and they are not at the mercy of outside distribution to receive payment for their products. As a result, Viastar is a “major independent” in the entertainment industry, recreating the studio system that made Hollywood profitable and powerful.
Electric Kingdom Distribution is anintegral element of Viastar as distribution is the heart of media sales and the marketing process that exists between production companies and international retailers, online services, and brick and mortar retailers. This distribution division facilitates all label credits, collection and cash flow. Viastar’s second division couples artists and their product. Viastar has both a unique strength and a legacy of music that flows from a diverse family of record labels and artists.
Thirdly, A.V.O. Recording Studios is capable of handling all of the attributes of audio postproduction for even the largest feature film release with the very same Oscar winning sound and technology that has become the standard for feature films such as Titanic, Star Wars, and Jurassic Park.
Moving Pictures International is a leading Entertainment trade publishing company Specializing in daily publishing at Festivals and markets, preview issues, and a new monthly trade to consumer crossover Publication launching in early 2004.
