Hellman and Walter's 4th Annual Salute to the Stars partners with the innovative BiteSizeTV

HOLLYWOOD, Calif. - Feb. 27, 2014 - PRLog -- Bob Hellman and Richard Walters are excited to announce that BiteSizeTV, the first online television network, with live studios in Hollywood, is partnering with the 4th Annual Hellman & Walter’s “Salute to the Stars” Oscar after-party, benefiting The Actors Fund.

BiteSizeTV.com, the fully integrated Online Entertainment Network – a first-of-its-kind online, multi-network, multi-channel destination delivering fresh, daily programming across six networks, will be broadcasting live from the red carpet and from multiple locations within the W Hollywood Hotel for the “Salute to the Stars.” “While television does a great job broadcasting Academy Awards coverage, there is so much more to Oscar night that viewers haven't seen. BiteSizeTV is the "more",” says Ron Bloom, founder and CEO of BiteSizeTV. “It won't be a webcast. It won't be a simulcast. It will be a "trimulcast."

BiteSizeTV will have its own featured on-demand programming throughout the evening, including original pre-Academy Awards coverage. Secondly, the network will broadcast its own live original content during the Oscars to give viewers a unique "second-screen" experience. Thirdly, BiteSizeTV will kick it up a notch in post-Academy Award coverage by inviting the world to attend one of the premier parties in Hollywood, the 4th Annual "Salute to the Stars." All programming will be broadcasted live from the new BiteSizeTV studios in the W Hollywood Hotel. The network will have hosted interviews with Academy Award winners and nominees, specially produced video packages, musical entertainment, and original behind-the-scenes footage.

Event producer Bob Hellman added, "The partnership with BiteSizeTV gives our guests another dimension to the experience with strategic placed screens throughout the event space. And it allows us to share the event with viewers from around the world by giving them a bird’s eye view into the talented and glamorous world of Hollywood, with the Oscars as the perfect backdrop."

Recognized by Variety, The Hollywood Reporter and CNN as one of the top Oscar events to attend in 2014, “Salute to the Stars” is taking over the rooftop at the luxury W Hollywood Hotel on Sunday, March 2, 2014 from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m. The star-studded, red carpet event will feature the variety band, TODDSPLANET with special guests including Taylor Hicks.
