Description: Urban Entertainment is a production, exhibition, and distribution company focused on African American and urban-themed entertainment content across multiple platforms and distribution channels. The company was founded at the beginning of 1999 by Michael Jenkinson, a former Vice President of Feature Film Production at 20th Century Fox. The company's proven, senior industry management team originates from top tier entertainment companies including Fox, MGM, Warner Brothers, Disney, Sony Pictures, Quincy Jones / David Salzman Entertainment, and Hanna-Barbera.
Management's relationships and access to A-list creators of African American and urban themed content - as well as its extensive distribution relationships - has solidified Urban Entertainment's position in providing quality original Internet productions for the African-American market. The company has been highly successful in migrating its online properties to multiple platforms and online and offline distribution channels.
In addition, Urban Entertainment acquires exclusive television and Internet rights to independently produced black feature and short films, licenses features and shorts to a broad range of traditional and emerging media channels, and streams many of the short films on this Web site.
Urban Entertainment counts among its investors and strategic partners BMG Entertainment and Provender Capital. The company is also actively undertaking emerging cross-platform initiatives including wireless and interactive television.
