SPICY FITNESS WARMS AWAY THE WINTER BLUES

IMC Vision is a little bit flattered this holiday season but it seems like a marriage made in fitness heaven! Mel B (Melanie Brown) of the super group Spice Girls is now part of the IMC stable of artists with a spanking gorgeous programme called Mel B Totally Fit. It is a comprehensive 100 minutes of fun and funky routines including two cardio sections, targeted sections for legs bums and tums and also has additional sections on nutrition. Being Warner Music content, there is no question that production quality was taken care of with a swanky LA villa backdrop with a panoramic pool deck, this programme has been released in the UK to rave reviews including “Fun & easy to follow – 10/10” said the Daily Mail whilst the Daily Star said “Now this is how to make a fitness DVD”.

Katrina Murray, Exec Prod, Warner Music says “We have known the guys at IMC for a long time, we know their efficiency and professionalism but most of all, everyone knows IMC for their profile as a special interest and fitness distributor and it was a no brainer to get them on board with Mel B’s programme”.

“We have long taken the stance of professional fitness instructors,” says Ken Gray, MD, IMC Vision, “but it is obvious that Mel takes her fitness very seriously indeed – getting back her pre baby shape seemed to have been plain sailing for her and her celebrity has stood the test of time especially with the Spice Girls reforming for their tour last year – we are really pleased to have Mel on board and I have no doubt that our clients will rally round this programme”

A few exclusive pre-views have taken place already and it is expected that Australia, Japan and Scandinavia will be the first of many licenses to be completed with Australia looking for a Mother’s Day 2010 release. All rights are exclusively available through IMC Vision except DVD rights for USA, UK & Eire. Click here for more information and on line screeners now or email international@imcvision.com

FOUR WORKOUT CONCEPTS WITH GUARANTEED PERENNIAL APPEAL FROM
MILLIE DOBIE

BOLLYWOOD  COMES TO TOWN
IMC PRESENTS HONEY KALARIA, QUEEN OF INDIAN DANCE

Change the way you dance forever! Bollywood and Bhangra dance is becoming more and more popular around the world, crossing all cultural and language barriers, these bold, beautiful styles of dancing have been hailed as an integral aid to keeping fit and enjoying yourself in the process!

To lead this charge, Honey Kalaria, one of the UK's leading Indian Dance instructors has put together two comprehensive programmes with easy step by step instruction as well as routines to really groove to. Also on offer is accompanying music and a PDF "Bollywood Bible".

"This is the whole package" says Rabs Patel, Director, Diva Entertainments "Honey is a perfectionist and she wanted to make sure that the viewer had everything they needed to get them on the road to dancing like a real Bollywood star as well as keeping fit"

Over breakfast, Rabs tells this reporter how Honey even went into a studio to lay down tracks that best suited Bollywood and Bhangra dance, tracks which accompany these programmes now, giving the programmes added value and longevity.

"Our clients have been asking for Bollywood dance programming for some time now" says Rod Rodrigo, IMC International Sales Manager "and it was serendipitous that we hooked up with Diva. I am hoping to license this programming to all our key clients this market but there is a lot of appeal beyond those territories as well"

"Honey Kalaria, Queen of Indian Dance" said the UK Sunday Times, whilst the UK Sun newspaper hailed her as "Britain's top modern Indian dance expert". Amazon.co.uk gave Honey five stars and the UK Daily Express said "One of the most effective ways to getting in shape."

DANCE YOUR WAY TO FITNESS!

RUMBLE IN THE JUNGLE...
DANCE FITNESS CONCEPT TAKES UK BY STORM!

IMC Vision announces the introduction of brand new fitness concept: DANCEAFREAKA to its Healthy Living and Fitness stable.

IMC International Sales Manager, Rod Rodrigo said "This is a unique product and has been taking the UK fitness arena by storm. We are really excited about having DANCEAFREAKA on board" Several leading fitness centres have taken on this new workout including Fitness First introducing the workout in many of its gyms. "African dance is excellent for fitness as it involves working your whole body" says John Ballaman, General Manager of Fitness First.

DANCEAFREAKA mixes traditional African dance with aerobic style exercises to give you a fun, exhilerating way of getting into shape. A live troup of drummers back this authentic workout led by Kofi Dennis Adorsoo. The moves include dances from West Africa as well as well known dances from the peoples of Southern Africa.

DRANCEAFREAKA is the brain child of Kojo Tawiah and Kwaku A Mensah and when Kojo first approach Kwaku they both knew that they had something special. "We had the African dance fitness idea a while ago and we know African dance but it took a lot of research to make sure that we had the fitness side of things all technically correct for healthy and safety"

DANCEAFREAKA is new for MIPTV 2009 in Cannes. For more information and previews on line click here.

YOU CAN STILL STEP UP
WITH TWO LEFT FEET
THE DANCE GOES ON...

Tough times call for tough actions. And that seems to be the mantra for all independent producers in the UK and Nik Baker, Two Left Feet productions is no exception. Nik is standing firm but re-structuring to weather the storms ahead.

"It's all good" says Nik, "We are leaner, meaner and more suited to the climate we are now in. It was a very tough decision, but the forcing hand was an aftershock of the demise of Woolworths"

(For those who blinked and missed the behemothian collapse of Woolworths in the UK, would not then know about the aftershocks and repercussions taking place in the DVD market here. Needless to say that wholesalers, distributors, indie producers & labels have all gone to the wall just because Woollies was not a bank and there was no UK government funding to keep that particular Titanic afloat.)

All Licensees of Two Left Feet programming need not do anything. All agreements are still valid and your day to day point of contact is still IMC Vision Ltd.

"We are still full steam ahead with our production schedule" says Nik, "I think that in times like these we just have to keep doing what we do best and trade our way through"

And as if just to prove his point, Nik is pulling out all the stops and slating six fantastic concepts new for MIPTV 2009:

Latin Freestyle Dance - Argentine Tango
Latin Freestyle Dance - Latin Jazz Salsa Fusion
Latin Freestyle Dance - Salsa With Sanchez

All available to review and screen on line right now!

In addition, there are three sensational street dance programmes to teach even the most two-left-footed people how to look cool:

Step Up And Dance - Vol 1
Step Up And Dance - Vol 2
Step Up And Dance - Vol 3, Pure Street Dance
