LOS ANGELES, March 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Opportunity Productions ("Opportunity"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Media International Concepts, Inc. (Pink Sheets: MEIC), announced today that it will begin production in April 2005 on the previously announced pilot show for an ongoing radio program that will be syndicated to satellite radio broadcasters and to Internet radio and TV outlets.

The pilot will explore the amazing opportunities available today in home-based businesses, featuring interviews with key leaders and successful entrepreneurs in that arena. "We believe very strongly that the theme of this show -- 'There's more opportunity in America today, and the great American dream is still ALIVE!' -- will resonate with millions of listeners via satellite and online radio broadcasts," said Robin Seymour, president and chief executive officer of Opportunity.

The brand-new show will be the first pilot in an ongoing series of program launches by Opportunity targeting the multi-billion-dollar satellite and online radio industries. "Based on the new resources we have as a result of our recent acquisition by MEIC, we have several projects in the works that we will also turn into pilot radio shows to satisfy the ever-growing demand for exciting talk shows," Seymour said. The second program will include a revival of Seymour's half-hour syndicated TV show from the 1990s and a reality-type TV show for Internet TV outlets.

Seymour began his career at an early age as a child actor on "The Lone Ranger Show." Later, he became one of America's top 10 disc jockeys before launching a six-days-a-week live dance TV show in Detroit that aired for seven years and helped to grow Motown Records. From there, he managed two successful direct selling companies and consulted for countless others. His proudest achievement in direct selling was organizing the national leadership and sales training for Network 2000, a direct sales firm that brought in more than three million new residential long distance customers for Sprint in the late 1980s.

Opportunity is a Los Angeles-based, full-service advertisement production company. For more than a decade, Opportunity's mission has been to "Capture the Vision" and provide its clients with low-cost, broadcast-quality short- and long-form television advertisements as well as corporate seminars and recruiting videos.

MEIC acquires and operates advertising, entertainment, educational programming, and production companies. MEIC creates synergies by exploiting both traditional and emerging distribution channels. MEIC is being positioned to be on the leading edge by providing entertainment and information through fixed wireless broadband. Acquisitions include the master license for an animated children's program ("Fruity Fables") and a video production company (Video 2000, d/b/a Opportunity Productions).
