IC Places Signs Production and Syndication Agreement With Top Artist and Cultural Commentator
WINTER PARK, FL--(Marketwire - February 25, 2011) - IC Places, Inc. (
The show, ARTZ TV is a new weekly reality based program hosted by a working artist. It is a thought provoking glimpse into the world of the arts from a unique perspective, that of an artist. It promises to be unapologetic, realistic and never "Vanilla" in its scope or content. It will not only feature the views and opinions of the host and guests, but also those of an arts community whose collective voice is often ignored or forgotten. It promises to deliver an alternative viewpoint as compared to other arts based programs.
"We are extremely excited to have the opportunity to work with Bill on this project," said Steven Samblis, president of IC Places, Inc. "In this space content is king. When it comes to bringing people to our sites and keeping them there, outstanding shows like these ones are the most important ingredients in the mix. If the popularity of Bill's artistic following is any indication, I feel this show will garner a large following in a short amount of time."
Under the agreement IC Places and "Tattooed Bill" Roberts will share in the revenues generated from pre-roll and in show advertising. The show will be co-owned by the two entities.
About Bill
Hosted by "Tattooed Bill" Roberts, an award winning artist and business owner. Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay area, Bill has been a long term resident of Orlando, Florida for the past 21 years. His biggest influence as an artist was his Grandmother, Nita, who used to tell him, "To view the world through the eyes of an artist is the greatest gift of all and should never be taken for granted." These words are not only his inspiration and motivation as an artist and person, but also his scope and vision for this new weekly show... ARTZ-TV.
