With eight series currently on the air and entering its 17th year of business, Atlas Media Corp., one of the country’s largest independent producers of non-fiction programming, announced today that the company has completed the expansion of its operations and moved to new state-of-the-art headquarters on West 36th Street in New York. Atlas Media now has over 25,000 sq. ft. spanning two full floors, including a production facility with 20 edit suites in constant use 24/7, many of which are being upgraded to handle Atlas’ increase in Hi-Def production. This new complex was built to facilitate Atlas’ on-going expansion, as well as to provide the latest high-tech production facilities for their top-rated series, including DR. G: MEDICAL EXAMINER (Discovery Health), BREAKING VEGAS (The History Channel), and YOUNG, SEXY &… (WE: Women’s Entertainment). Bruce David Klein, Atlas Media’s President and Executive Producer made the announcement today.
“This investment in Atlas Media’s future proves our commitment to continue to deliver extraordinary non-fiction programming to our network, home entertainment and international clients. The demand for our innovative and top-rated programming continues to grow both domestically and internationally and this is a direct response to that,” commented Klein. “Additionally, it is critical that we maintain our technological advantage. We plan to increase our Hi-Def production from 25% to 40% of our slate by the second quarter of 2006. This new expansion will better allow us to meet these ever-increasing demands.”
In addition to 100+ work stations, dozens of executive offices, conference rooms and the 20 edit suites, Atlas’ new facility includes an atmospheric writers’ room with computers and massage chairs, an insert stage/interview studio, 12+ media logging stations, a research library, and a café with patio.
