Major North American anime producer and distributor ADV Films has announced a brand new official fan club program that will offer free anime preview DVDs to high school, library or college anime clubs. Dubbed Anime ADVocates, the program is designed to help clubs spread the joy of anime to others and keep fans up to date with the latest titles ADV has to offer.
"ADV feels very connected to our fan base," says ADV Films director of marketing Anne Armogida. "We seek to help them in any way we can by supporting them through Anime ADVocates."
Anime ADVocates will begin its premier round of anime preview DVDs in December. In addition to the free discs, ADV plans to provide exclusive games, contests and other fun activities for club members.
ADV Films’ best-selling titles include Neon Genesis Evangelion, RahXephon, Robotech, Full Metal Panic!, Hello Kitty and Azumanga Daioh. The company’s extensive library also includes popular live-action science fiction programs such as The Jim Henson Company’s Farscape, the nationally syndicated Gene Roddenberry’s Andromeda and the Saturn Award-nominated Mutant X. ADV’s Parent company, A.D. Vision, Inc. encompasses a multitude of media divisions, including Anime Network, America’s first and only television network dedicated to Japanese-style animation.
