VM-Productions Launches New Movie Site—High Rankings Received by Google

PRLog (Press Release) – Feb 05, 2007 – VM-Productions is pleased to announce the launch of its new, completely re-designed website. Visitors will get a chance to participate in VM Productions’ movies as members of the cast or crew. They’ll also learn about VM-Productions’ critically acclaimed movie, “Shades of Day,” which this year was selected by Rutgers University to be part of its cinema studies curriculum, along with a number of classic films by Bertolucci, Scorsese, Bresson, Visconti, Shrader and Kurosawa.

“There are a lot of reasons for visiting our new site, www.shadesofday.com,” says Vitaly Sumin, director, writer and producer for VM-Productions. “Visitors can get to know more about our movie, “Shades of Day”—including cast, crew, and critical opinions—as well as our upcoming projects. In addition, they may choose to join our free fan club, which could make them eligible for a part in one of our upcoming movies (cast or crew). And for the visitor who wishes to know us even better and understand where we are coming from artistically, we have created an exciting new section—”Recommended Books and Films.” (http://www.shadesofday.com/VMP/recommended.htm.)
The website is also a great resource for filmmakers and aspiring filmmakers. “We have over 900 links to web-sites related to every aspect of indie filmmaking, including acting, casting, screenwriting, art direction,” says Sumin. “As of this writing, in Google’s category of Film and Video Data bases, we are ranked on the 11th place out of 48,400,000 websites. In the acting and casting category we are ranked in 8th place out of 4,830,000 websites and in the entertainment directories we’re ranked number one out of 48,500,000.” Sumin hopes that visitors will enjoy visiting VM Productions’ website. “And who knows,” he concludes, “it might be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.”
