Clarendon Entertainment Releases Urban S.L.A.M, Vol. 1 on DVD - First in a Series That Showcases the New Black Cinema

NEW YORK, Feb. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Clarendon Entertainment today announced the release of Urban S.L.A.M., volume 1 on DVD.

Urban S.L.A.M. is a ground-breaking DVD anthology series of short live action movies (S.L.A.M.'s) that introduces audiences to the work of a new generation of urban filmmakers.

Volume 1 features a collection of 8 well-crafted short films presented with compelling segments in between films. These S.L.A.M.'s include supermodel Tyson Beckford's acting debut (Gully), festival favorites that have premiered on HBO (The Date) and Showtime (Stone Mansion) and the first 2 episodes of America's only black erotic series, The G-Spot Chronicles (The Marriage Counselor & The Engagement Party).

During breaks in between films, viewers are treated to street interviews to get people's thoughts on what independent black cinema really is and then taken behind the scenes for an intimate look into the filmmaking process.

Bonus features include a "making of" documentary, coverage of a premiere screening, alternate endings, a photo slide show, cast interviews and coming attractions. In all, there is over 3 hours of content on the DVD.

Volume 1 is being offered for sale exclusively through its website at http://www.urbanslam.com/. Visitors also have the option of viewing free clips of the films online as well as ordering a free DVD demo that allows them to see two of the films in their entirety along with selected clips and bonus features.

"Until now, many of these films were not available to the public unless you attended the handful of urban film festivals in places like New York and Miami," says Roderick Giles, Clarendon's CEO, "now, we can bring the best of these festivals to urban film fans around the country who are seeking something new and fresh."

Clarendon Entertainment is a premier provider of high-end short-form filmed entertainment aimed at the urban market. To purchase the DVD or obtain a free DVD demo, please visit http://www.urbanslam.com/. For more information on Clarendon Entertainment, please visit http://www.clarendonent.com/.
