TDGI Business Plan For 2011 & 2012




-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------




GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS – Overview of Company's Business Plan for 2011 and 2012

During Calendar years 2011 and 2012, Company plans to significantly increase its output of new release films for theatrical, video, television and international release. The primary engine driving revenues for the Company will be derived from the key “theatrical release titles,” summarized below from those items that have previously been announced:


June 2011 –
“Turtle: The Incredible Journey” – An acclaimed, documentary feature from director Nick Stringer (“National Geographic Explorer”) that is being released under a distribution venture with SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment. As of the date of this Disclosure filing, the film has opened into forty-seven (47) theaters in the United States, and is on target to open most major markets via expansions scheduled for July 22, July 29 and August 5, 2011. The title will be release to the DVD /Blu-Ray and VOD markets on Tuesday, November 15.


October 2011 –
“All’s Faire In Love” – A romantic comedy from Patriot Pictures, starring Christina Ricci, Cedric The Entertainer and Ann Margaret. Theatrical releasing costs for this title are being provided through a bank line of credit with the National Bank of California, and a revenue shortfall guarantee via MGM-UA Home Video. Home Video release is expected to occur in January 2012.


March 2012 –
“The Weather Station” – A Russian language thriller from director Johnny O?Reilly. Theatrical Release will be limited to key markets.


April 2012 –
“Asalto Al Cine” – An award winning, Spanish-language film from Mexico that the Company will release to key theatrical markets and markets with large and targetable populations of Spanish-speaking peoples or Mexican immigrants.


December 2011 –
“Cook County” – Winner of more than a dozen film festivals, this powerful drama stars Anson Mount as a meth-addicted man on the edge of destruction. Company plans to release the film to theatres on a limited, key market basis, following the October launch of Mount's high-profile new AMC TV Series, “Hell On Wheels.”


March 2012 –
“Toys in the Attic” – A theatrical releasing venture for Paris-based Eurocine Films and Prague-based Bio Illusion Entertainment, of director Jiri Barta?s stunning, stop-motion animated adventure. Launch will begin in key markets, and be expanded as needed.


Theatrical Release Date Not Set –
“The Conspiracy” – An epic, period drama of espionage, romance, murder and revenge, set in 15th Century Spain, starring Julia Ormond (“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”), Jurgen Prochnow (“The DaVinci Code”) and Jason Isaacs (“Harry Potter” series). Due to issues of delivery from the Spain-based production company, the release date for this film to theatres in America has not yet been set.


Theatrical Release Date Not Set –
“Thru The Moebius Strip” – A sci-fi themed, animated adventure reminiscent in plot and production design to the epic “Avatar.” Due to issues of receipt of suitable delivery and release materials, the theatrical date for USA has not been set.


While the theatrical releases will provide the greatest revenue streams for eventual home video formats, the Company is also pursuing the release of some “direct-to-video” titles and the rerelease of many catalog titles for Blu-Ray and Video-On-Demand. At present, the company plans to release thirty-six total items to the video market (and various formats), including the theatrical releases, key catalog items, and direct-to-video titles such as “Boggy Creek” and “Edgar Allan Poe’s Requiem for the Damned.

Prospective Titles – The Company has entered into agreements for selected distribution rights to some films that are slated to go into production during 2011 and 2012. The financing for these titles requires the participation of entities outside of the control of the Company, and as such, there can be no assurance that these films will actually be produced until filming commences. Accordingly, these titles have been categorized as “Prospective Titles” that may – or may not – be included in the Company?s release slate for 2012. Key items under this category include:


“Wild Oats” – a road-trip comedy set to star Shirley MacLaine, Maria Bell, Christina Ricci and Christopher Walken, and to be directed by Scott Marshall; As of Sept. 30, 2011, the producers of “Wild Oats” have negotiated an option to buy-out Company?s interest in this film, but have not yet exercised such option.


“Dances with Werewolves” – A period thriller, shot in 3D, set in the post-Civil War era, to be directed by Chad Ferrin.


“Lucky Charms” (aka “Daddy?s Little Hero”) – A contemporary family feature, set to star Mickey Rooney and Dan Haggerty, and to be directed by Andrew Parke. As of Sept. 30, 2011, this production has been placed on “hold” due to probate court issues involving the project ownership from the estate of the late Joseph A. Schilling.


“Terminator 3000” (aka “T3K”) – An animated, sci-fi feature from the “Terminator” franchise, set to be directed by Glenn Chaika; subject to the third party rights approvals and participations. As of Sept. 30, 2011, development of the story and production package for this film project is continuing.


“Shadow Vision” – This prospective title, a sci-fi thriller, began filming 2nd unit material several years ago, but stopped short of principal photography due to script and casting issues. At present, a March 2012 start date is planned, subject to casting and key personnel considerations.


Book Releases – Truman Press, Inc., d/b/a “Hannover House” was originally organized and operated as a book publisher, incorporated in California in 1993. The Company plans to continue operations in the book publishing arenas during 2011 and 2012, and expects to increase the total output of titles, as well as expand into the emerging media platforms of e-Books.
