ABOUT THE COMPANY
When a company receives fan mail from around the world including from the people
that are taking us out of this world like the astronauts and scientists at NASA,
you know you're onto something! As a technology-driven entertainment production company
that specializes in combining live action film production with state-of-the-art computer
graphics and special effects, Netter Digital Entertainment, Inc. has become a sought-after
producer of dramatic series, movies, documentaries, children's programming and new
media.
The Company is engaged in three primary business activities: entertainment production;
computer graphics and visual effects production services; and through its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Videssence, the manufacture and
distribution of SRGB lighting products.
The Company’s Entertainment Production division currently produces the Emmy and Hugo
Award-winning science fiction television series "Babylon
5" with creator and fellow executive producer, J. Michael Straczynski. This
division is also actively developing numerous other projects with the expectation
they will lead to additional future productions of equal quality and popularity.
The success and longevity of "Babylon 5"
has created industry wide recognition of the Company’s creative and technical prowess
in the areas of computer graphics production and digital imaging techniques. In order
to more fully exploit this expertise, the Company formed the Netter Digital Technologies
division which now markets computer graphics and visual effects production and digital
post-production services to outside clients.
The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Videssence,
designs, manufacturers and distributes lighting products which incorporate Videssence’s
patented SRGB light technology for the illumination
of studios, stages and production environments in the television, video, motion picture,
theater and theme parks industries as well as for the video conferencing, distant
learning and pre-press digital photography services industries. Videssence lighting
products are marketed in the USA and internationally through a network of distributors,
dealers and direct sales staff.
By creatively looking towards the stars, not only has Netter Digital Entertainment,
Inc. become one of the entertainment industry's most respected creators and producers
of science fiction programming, it has imbued this spirit in the development of digital
production techniques that will keep the Company in the forefront of a rapidly changing
entertainment production universe.
