Arts Alliance Media, a UK digital distribution and venture capitalist firm, acquired New York-based Hart Sharp Video in May 2007 to institute its American campaign. The acquisition was made in hopes of developing Hart Sharp's DVD, TV and Internet program distribution of feature films, special interest and sports titles with a new online digital emphasis. Recognizing the Web's ability to unite people, speed communications, create new rich-media entertainment channels, give consumers access to new markets, and reduce friction among all kinds of transactions, Arts Alliance aims to creatively and diligently support the development of innovative and high growth businesses through a focus on technology-enabled service companies.
Heading the company is former Hart Sharp Video President and founder, Joe Amodei. Amodei excelled in the sports arena acquiring such top-sellers as 100 Years of the New York Yankees and Faith Rewarded and built an impressive library of award-winning movies and documentaries making Hart Sharp an industry leader in the sales, marketing and distribution of national and regional sports event DVDs. Amodei and his staff look forward to utilizing the new resources offered by Arts Alliance to create a larger distribution outlet and bring viewers bigger films and co-productions.
