Christopher ‘Play’ Martin (From Former Hip Hop Duo ‘Kid N’ Play’) To Collaborate

July 25, 2005 – Las Vegas, NV– Advancing its strategy of providing home entertainment clients with the best of Urban, Latino and Horror films, Maverick Entertainment Group, Inc. (MEG) is pleased to announce their newest alliance and expansion of their Christian/inspirational label Spirit. Doug Schwab, President of MEG, announces that MEG has signed an exclusive distribution agreement with the Atlanta based producers of Amen Films. The output deal will help fill the void in programming for the Christian sector and catapults MEG’s Spirit as a major player in supplying faith-based films to America’s retailers & rentailers.  The deal is recognition on the part of the film industry of the power of the Christian market. Since Mel Gibson's 'Passion of the Christ', the global audience has exploded for Christian Inspirational films and music worldwide.

Finalized and signed during VSDA Home Entertainment 2005 show in Las Vegas, MEG and Amen Films have agreed to a five (5) year exclusive output distribution deal for faith based special interest programs and feature films under the Maverick Spirit and Amen Films moniker. Amen Films will be handling all marketing and promotion of those films within and throughout the Christian community, leveraging a core network of Radio, Internet, Television, Special Events and Magazine multi-media. MEG will handle marketing and promotion to retailers and rentailers across the country. Martin heads up the Amen Films division and will work very closely with Maverick President Doug Schwab on all aspects of the joint venture.

The first project to be released with the Spirit/Amen moniker will be the much anticipated Urban Christian film titled: Holy Hip Hop: The Movie and is slated to be released within the upcoming months. The Film is produced and edited by Christopher “Play” Martin (House Party) and HP4 Digital Works. Holy Hip Hop: The Movie delves inside aspects of the rapidly rising Holy Hip Hop music genre and the global movement focused on street ministry evangelism.

Christopher Martin, internationally known to many Hip Hop movie and music fans as “Play” from the rap and acting duo Kid ‘n Play starring in the box office hits House Party and the sequels House Party 2 and 3, and Class Act. Martin currently serves as Executive Director of Amen Films. As the same creative group heading the Holy Hip Hop Music label distributed globally through EMI, Amen Films will negotiate with some of the best Gospel recording talent to make appearances in Spirit/Amen productions. Amen Films intends to produce and or acquire up to 12 movies a year which will be distributed by MEG’s Spirit label.

Martin explains, “This Exclusive Film Distribution Agreement, maximizing visibility for Christian and Inspirational films worldwide, is timely and Maverick Entertainment is once again at the forefront. Fulfilling the need for films that inspire, uplift and enlighten is a key objective of Amen Films; and Amen Films is extremely excited and proud to be in a long-term covenant relationship with Maverick Entertainment, as a part of the Spirit Family. Stay tuned, as there's about to be a new house party and a new day in Christian and Inspirational films," said Christopher Martin.

In making the announcement, Doug Schwab stated, "This deal reinforces MEG’s position as a leading distributor of niche films. These faith-based films complement MEG’s already strong catalog - a catalog that includes films under the Urban, Latino, Fusion, Creep FX and Platinum labels. Amen Films is a major creative force in the Spiritual content arena and we are very pleased to collaborate with them to bring outstanding faith-based movies to our clients across the United States. We look forward to building on this relationship with Amen Films to further explore future distribution projects together.”

Along with the new partnership MEG is now positioned to release at least one Spirit title per month starting in 4th quarter of this year and continuing throughout 2006. MEG is very happy with the performance of their already released Christian product under the Spirit label, expanding its borders and moving into licensing of its library of niche product internationally across all media, with worldwide rights in this partnership.
