FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

DENVER HOME TO NEW FRONTIER OF VIDEO PRODUCTION

DENVER, COLORADO -- It's new! It's sexy! It's at the frontier of entertainment ... and it's produced in Denver! The latest wave in digital video production gives "soap opera" a new meaning ... one your mother and grandmother never imagined! A show made for the busy, wired, urban professional, the self-employed lone-eagle, the stay-at-home mom, the college student, and anyone else with a sense for adventure, a touch of voyeurism and a desire for a bit of saucy entertainment to break up their day. CITY'S EDGE is a new digital soap opera written, produced, and performed by Denver-area artists that premieres this spring on the Internet! At home, at work, on the road, or in a cybercafe on the other side of the planet, you can watch the dramas of your favorite characters unfold anytime you want. You'll meet Lexi Parish, a beautiful, young, vibrant, Ivy League urbanite, who moves to Denver from New York to become a Senior Producer for Lightspeed, Inc., a Denver-based Internet company. With the help of her hipster assistant, Brad Williams, she quickly gets entangled with a diverse cast of characters. From Dani Hartley, the flirtatious office "party girl", to the tall, handsome, and ambitious Jonathan Price, a Denver stockbroker with a penchant for beautiful women, to Patricia Ryan, the sophisticated wife of a powerful industrialist, to escaped felon-on-the-run, Trent Mason, Lexi's life in Denver will never be quite the same! With high production values rarely seen on the Internet, and a hot, cutting-edge music score, each episode of CITY'S EDGE leaves the viewer wanting more and always wondering what will happen next! Charter subscriptions for premium content, archives, show downloads, and more, will be available after the premiere for about $12 per year.
