Reveille, Akimbo Partner.
Hollywood production company Reveille LLC will distribute its
library titles to Akimbo Systems Inc., the digital download service that
sends niche and mainstream content via broadband to the TV.
The Akimbo service will feature Reveille-produced shows
"Adrenaline X," "House Wars" and "Meet Mr.
Mom." UTA Online, the new digital division of Beverly Hills-based
United Talent Agency, brokered the deal.
Akimbo's service includes studio movies, indie films, foreign
language shows and a host of niche videos. To use the service, consumers
must have an Akimbo set-top box connected to their TV. Akimbo delivers
that content via the Internet.
Reveille produces NBC's "The Office" and ABC's
"Ugly Betty."
