Inter-Media Marketing, Inc. Releases "J.T. Win or Lose" Video Via K.D. Media/Pictures
Little Rock, AR (November 24, 2005) - Inter-Media Marketing, Inc., an Arkansas based media consulting company, releases the "J.T. Win or Lose" video through its video production division, K.D. Media/Pictures. The video is the first visual component to the "Jermain Taylor Anthem" (Knock'em Out!) series, an urban, alternative rock, and Latino musical tribute to World Champion Boxer, Jermain Taylor. The original song, produced by Inter-Media Marketing, Inc.'s own Official 1 Records, has been enhanced and re-mixed by Hood Tech Pro (Latin version) and John Le Compt of Evanescence (alternative rock version). K.D. Media/Pictures has been tasked to produce all visual components for the exclusive series.
"The original version of the "Jermain Taylor Anthem" (knock'em Out!) is definitely a smash hit to the ears. When you hear it, the beat and rhythm flows through you. Now that the visual component has been added, the song has lift and takes you on an actual journey to the ring with the champ, and through the streets of Arkansas where Official 1 and J.T. call home.", explains K.D. Kirkland, founder/CEO of K.D. Media/Pictures.
Ironically, the video begins with a scene from the end of the July 16, 2005 Championship bout between Taylor and Hopkins. Both fighters are pictured in a split screen awaiting the decision. After the announcement is made, Hopkins' face and chin fall to the canvas in dismay as the referee announces - Taylor as the new Middle Weight Champion of the World. The anthem begins and scenes of Jermain Taylor delivering bone-shattering blows to former opponents fade in and out in perfect syncopation with the melody. "It was my vision to show the power and courage of J.T., while adding a few 'jabs of humor'.... pun intended. But I also wanted to show his huge fan base, including the many celebrities that make cameos throughout the video - Brad Cherry (pitcher, Cincinnati Reds), Bennett Cromer (pitcher, K.C. Royals), John Le Compt (Evanescence), Phil Tayler (Future Leaders of the World), Donna Terrell (Fox 16 TV), and the Official 1 Records Family to name a few.", explains Kirkland with a smile.
Inter-Media Marketing, Inc. of Little Rock has reached an agreement to have an exclusive preview showing of the video on the Alltel Arena jumbo-tron during the NBA D-League Arkansas Rim Rockers season home opener, Friday November 25, 2005, as part of the pre-game festivities.
