DENVER, CO, April 23, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Bang Digital Media, Inc. (“BDM”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Bang Holdings Corp (OTC: BXNG), is excited to announce the production of two new celebrity-driven digital series for the cannabis market.
The first series, called “Hot Box Karaoke,” is a cannabis-friendly, fun karaoke/interview show filmed in the back of a hippy-style camper van. The pilot episode will feature Adore Delano (American Idol, RuPaul’s Drag Race), and is slated for its digital release on BDM’s 4TTNetwork, a digital platform consisting of cannabis-centric Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube channels with an aggregate of over 2.5 million subscribers.
The second series, called “The Cannabis Connection,” is an ‘Inside the Actor’s Studio’ style show that will aim to touch the heart of an individual’s personal journey with cannabis. The pilot for the series was filmed during BDM’s production of ‘Elevate 2018’ -- a 4/20 celebration at the International Church of Cannabis – and will feature LGBTQ hero, cancer survivor, and rock legend Melissa Etheridge.
“We are extremely excited to have shot with rock goddess Melissa Etheridge,” said Steve Berke, Chief Executive Officer of Bang Digital Media. “Not only has she produced multi-platinum records, two Grammys, and an Academy Award, she is also a cancer survivor and cannabis activist who has a uniquely compelling story, and we can’t wait for her to share it on the pilot episode of ‘The Cannabis Connection.’
Our new slate of content is a step-up from the short form content that we have been producing for our digital channels, and we are optimistic that we will be able to generate new revenue streams by selling our content to larger media providers. In addition, we believe we will also have the ability to sell sponsorships and product placements through these shows, since cannabis companies do not currently have a way to build their brands through traditional advertising channels,” concluded Mr. Berke.
