–\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/b>AIM Tell-A-Vision\u00ae Group Signs Distribution Agreement for Hit US Series <\/span><\/i><\/b>–<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>New York, NY \u2013 March 17, 2014 – AIM Tell-A-Vision\u00ae Group (AIM TV) <\/i><\/span><\/b>announced today that Raw Travel\u00ae<\/i><\/b> the U.S.-syndicated adventure travel & lifestyle series, will be represented internationally by Off The Fence Distribution. <\/span><\/p>\n

Off the Fence will be responsible for licensing Raw Travel<\/i> (18 x 30\u2019) to media outlets outside of the United States and will represent the show at global television markets, including at MIPTV in April.<\/span><\/p>\n

Raw Travel<\/span><\/i> is a weekly 30 minute adventure travel & lifestyle series that incorporates two of the fastest growing segments of travel: eco-tourism & voluntourism. The fast paced show focuses on authentic experiences to often off-the-beaten-path destinations as well as other more mainstream destinations. Season 1 focused on Latin America & the Caribbean with Season 2 plans for travel to Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia as well as parts of North America.<\/span><\/p>\n

Raw Travel<\/span><\/i> has been on an explosive growth track since launching in 70% of the U.S. via broadcast syndication last October. The show has been adding more cities to its coverage while growing and winning key demographics in major domestic US markets such as San Francisco, Chicago, Dallas, Portland and Orlando.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cU.S. passport possession has exploded as international travel has become more accessible than ever. Raw Travel\u2019s<\/i> ability to bring young demos back to broadcast TV surprised even me,\u201d stated Robert G. Rose, Executive Producer.<\/b> \u201cTravel programming is extremely popular internationally. As we fill the void in the U.S., having a respected partner like Off the Fence gives Raw Travel<\/i> an international footprint that\u2019s key to building a global brand\u201d Rose continues. <\/span><\/p>\n

Georgina Eye, Head of Acquisitions, Off the Fence<\/span><\/b>, added: \u201cTravel and Adventure is a genre that continues to do well for us, and Raw Travel offers a really fresh and exciting take on it. The series gets under the skin of the countries and cities featured, and really taps into the current travelling zeitgeist of treading the less well-worn trail and seeking new experiences. It is a series that has really taken off in the US, and has attracted a younger demographic of viewers, and we know that it will have great appeal to buyers globally.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
