Creating Television Together!
Sturbridge – OurTvSpace, LLC, announced today it plans to roll out its “Whisper Series” – a collection of artist workshops taking place throughout the year at its new headquarters in Sturbridge, Massachusetts – with the first event pegged as an Actor Fest on March 8, 2009 from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
OurTvSpace is a new media company whose mission is to build a new Digital Network that creates and distributes quality television on the web through collaborations with the creative community. Its first weekly web series called "Oldbury Hill" launched in Fall, 2008, was a test of the Network’s new programming and content reflecting the New England aesthetic. “Oldbury Hill” is a fictional Town in Massachusetts in which Maggie Phelps, a teenage girl is suddenly transplanted from Beverly Hills, California where she discovers she is embroiled in a centuries old dark secret. OurTvSpace has plans for a myriad of new programs geared toward niche audiences rolling out in 2009! As part of the Company’s plans to create television on the web through collaborative efforts, the Whisper Series is designed to help artists hone their skills and increase their marketability!
