Burbank, CA_ SlingShot Entertainment and nWave Pictures signed a new distribution agreement at the recent GSTA convention in Toronto. The agreement includes DVD and VHS distribution of the innovative 3D/2D documentary SOS Planet, narrated by award-winning journalist Walter Cronkite, who also makes an on-screen appearance. The film will be released theatrically in November 2002 in Europe and in the United States in Spring 2003. SlingShot Entertainment will slate the DVD for retail release in March 2003. The two companies have enjoyed success together in the past with the DVD release of Alien Adventure, Haunted Castle and Encounter in the Third Dimension.

The film is a ground-breaking 3D/2D documentary with a rich texture blend of live action and computer-generated imagery in ways never-before-seen in the large format film industry. It explores the challenge of communicating important messages in today_s media-saturated world in an entertaining, yet truthful way.

"We_re excited about continuing our partnership with nWave," commented Mitch Perliss, Vice President and General Manager of SlingShot Entertainment. "Thanks to the quality of the nWave films, SlingShot Entertainment was able to open a new area in the DVD marketplace _ 3D, and SOS Planet will take us to the next level in 3D DVD releases. Not only is SOS Planet equally as entertaining as our other 3D titles from nWave, but it tells a story that needs to be told. "

"This is the latest large format 3D film we_ve made," stated Ben Stassen, director of the film. "SOS Planet represents quite a departure from the purely commercial films we have made in the past. It was a great challenge but also a lot of fun to find cool 3D effects that would enhance the film_s message about nature conservation. We_re thrilled that SlingShot Entertainment will help us deliver that message."
