Word Up is a new online high school-oriented show that features high school kids discussing the issues and participating in the activities that fuel their daily lives. Think MTV's "Real Life" meets "Oprah." A hybrid of reality and talk show formats that blends discussion with real life activities and events.

The basis of Word Up is the "campfire" setting used to engage the cast in discussions. The "campfire" is used to create a comfortable conversational setting. Topics of conversation will span from light-hearted topics such as pre-game preparations to more serious topics such as friendships, dating and peer pressure. Key to the storyline of each episode will be the integration of video showcasing the cast and their friends engaged in the topics activity (i.e. pre-game prep, prom, hanging out, etc).

Word Up will be multi-dimensional experience and engage our audience to participate. Viewers

will be encouraged to post comments and vote on discussion points. They will have opportunities to participate in the reality filming, as well as be invited into the "campfire" setting.

Word Up is currently being pitched to several national network organizations to drive the production and distribution of the online series through their local network affiliates web sites.
