FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: "TingEm.com" Launches: Giving Hope to Entertainment's Undiscovered Talent
Beverly Hills, CA, September 1, 2009 - The launch of ‘TingEm' (http://www.tingem.com/), a new video sharing website, helps to bring anyone with a dream to be a star into the spotlight. Unlike other social media websites with a broad range of video clips, TingEm's primary focus is to give undiscovered talent an opportunity to shine and be recognized by a community of entertainers who ultimately influence what appears on the front page.
"The idea is to bridge that gap and give a sense of hope to individuals who want to be successful entertainers without having to first sell the farm and move to Hollywood," explains co-founder Cory Bassett. The motivation behind TingEm comes from the countless stories of people who move away from friends and family in pursuit of a dream to become the next big star. Bassett continued, "Reality is that there are many individuals who never get to see this come to fruition."
Today, technology plays a major part in the everyday lives of people regardless of their career path that is why TingEm embraces individuals' passions and uses technology as a platform to allow anyone, anywhere to showcase their talent. Its free video hosting website allows users, like models and actors, to easily upload their videos, participate in various talent contests http://www.tingem.com/pages/events.html, and make connections with other hopeful entertainers through its social networking features. And, because TingEm is a new term that means to tag or recognize talent when you see it, all users are encouraged to watch, share, rate and comment on videos and contests; giving users the power to help their favorite entertainers get recognized and be featured in TingEm's spotlight.
But TingEm is not only for undiscovered talent, child entertainer Nadji Jeter, uses the website to help promote his career. He is diligent about uploading his talent videos and keeps his professional profile current, which is meant for talent scouts to learn more about the individual. As a result, he has been featured in the TingEm spotlight and many viewers have gotten to know him. Nadji is currently filming Grown Ups, a movie with Adam Sandler and Chris Rock due in theaters June 2010.
