The new bay now affords clients the luxury of Orange County’s two most spacious and well-equipped audio bays. Both bays are equipped with Telos X-Stream ISDN boxes that allow direct digital and real time connections to recording studios anyplace in the world. Recent ISDN record sessions include sessions to New York City, Hollywood, Santa Monica, Colorado, New Mexico and Mexico City.

Heading up the Post Modern audio team is Sr. Mixer Chris Potter whose audio career spans 25 years and includes radio & TV work for national ad agencies such as Innocean Worldwide America, Young & Rubicam, Rubin Postaer & Associates and Foote, Cone & Belding. Recent Post Modern audio clients include Innocean, Disney, Behr Paint, Wunderman, DGWB, Acufocus, The Discovery Channel, USA Network, The Skiver Group and Ken Roberts Productions. Chris will be supported in his audio efforts by fellow mixers James Mannion and Adam Castellanos. Post Modern’s Rich O’Neill says “…the new audio bay is the result of an across-the-board demand for audio work, as well as a vast increase in editorial assignments. Simply, this expansion is because of the tremendous growth at Post Modern.”

PMG Managing Partners Rick Warren and Amir Samnani said, “We are exceedingly pleased that Paramount has selected us. PMG has enjoyed a longstanding and very successful relationship with Paramount non-theatrical for many years through our PME, AMP and Images in Motions divisions. This greatly expands our relationship and fits perfectly with our worldwide non-theatrical distribution plans. It is a huge vote of confidence and we could not be happier.”

Paramount’s Senior Vice President, Non-Theatrical Distribution, Joan Filippini, said, “After a lengthy RFP process, PMG emerged as the vendor of choice. PMG’s forward thinking, experience, enthusiasm and passion coupled with industry leading digital distribution is an unbeatable combination.”

PMG Managing Partners Rick Warren and Amir Samnani, said “Our goal is to build a comprehensive resource for non-theatrical distribution worldwide. Strategic acquisitions and partnerships provide us with new/enhanced secure content delivery solutions, new/expanded market penetration, expanded sales efforts and enhanced marketing. Criterion Pictures, VEC and ITF complements our cruise ship distribution through Sea Movies and positions the Post Modern Group as an industry leading non-theatrical distributor. We are very enthusiastic about this acquisition and we are committed to taking the Non-theatrical business to the next level with the full benefit of PMG’s technical capabilities and studio relationships. Union Bank facilitated the financial aspects of this acquisition.”

Criterion’s departing Chairman John Fisher said, “We have been approached many times over the years by potential suitors but only PMG has demonstrated the necessary commitment, capabilities and enthusiasm for non-theatrical distribution. This is a great fit for us and I am confident that PMG’s technical expertise, proven track record with Sea Movies and strategic expansion plan will serve the non-theatrical market exceptionally well. Signal Hill acted as the exclusive financial advisor to Criterion in connection with this transaction.”
