AtomFilms Relaunches Content Site

SAN FRANCISCO, December 4:
AtomFilms, which was recently acquired by MTV Networks, has relaunched its
site, featuring original short movies and other content for broadband users.

Among the site's new features are a syndicated video player
that can be embedded on other sites, a high-resolution video playback option,
and customizable channels and content alerts. The re-launch marks AtomFilms'
official debut as a service of MTV Networks.

"AtomFilms is a network for original, legal and highly
entertaining independent content," said the company’s GM, Scott Roesch.
"Our new site and our position at MTV Networks will enable us to expand on
our mission of bringing creative and innovative content to large audiences, and
supporting talented independent creators."

"AtomFilms has a proven track record as a developer and
programmer of original, popular broadband entertainment," added Doug
Herzog, the president of Comedy Central and Spike TV. "We are working
closely with AtomFilms as an important source of new talent and original
content for our networks."

As part of the relaunch, the site is offering up the pilot
episode of the horror-comedy series Hellholes, funded and developed by AtomFilms Studio and created by filmmakers
Kyle Rankin and Efram Potelle, previous winners of HBO's Project Greenlight
initiative. AtomFilms Studio currently has a dozen new series in production.

The site also today launched a new Comedy Central channel,
featuring episodes from several of the network’s online shows, including Good
God and Baxter & McGuire.
