Aces Entertainment and Research Youth Panel Overview

The core vision of Aces Entertainment is to launch four Entertainment driven websites

(FilmyAces.com, MusicAces.com, SportyAces.com, and TellyAces.com**) which republish on-going

interviews, reviews, and previews from existing smaller websites as well as 100% original content

curated and published by the Aces Team.

The aim of the panel is to consolidate four smaller areas of entertainment on the Internet, and to

create one online youth panel. The websites will have an online only focus and will utilize core Social

Media Channels like YouTube, Facebook, Google+, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and other smaller

blogs. The core design will be keeping in mind advances in the “smart” technology space (includes

being able to read and view the content coherently on smartphones, smart devices, smart watches,

smart TV’s, smart tablets).

FilmyAces.com (and the other relative websites) aims to connect with personal magazine curator

Flipboard across smart devices. The Aces brands aim to re-publish content on Flipboard daily to

stretch it out to a wider audience.

In the future, selected content from the websites will also be published into a 2 monthly print

magazine which aims to launch itself across New Zealand (nation-wide), Australia (nation-wide) and

select North American cities (New York, Los Angeles) with wider plans to expand into Asia in 2015

(namely China, Indonesia, Thailand, Japan and India).

The initial aim is to build a Youth Panel consisting of 50,000 core members members aged 15-25

across Australia and New Zealand to start with a core focus on 5 core syndicated clients in the

FMCG sector.
