ULTRAMAN Miniseries SEVENGER FIGHT To Stream As Global Event

Starlight Runner Entertainment, the company known for producing groundbreaking transmedia campaigns and story world development for Spider-Man, Men in Black, Avatar, Halo, Pirates of the Caribbean, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Ultraman is teaming up with leading IP-focused and multiplatform entertainment company Elevate Pictures to form a new Transmedia marketing strategy and creative agency called ICEBERG THEORY. ICEBERG THEORY's first campaign will be the June 3, 2021 global event ULTRAMAN CONNECTION LIVE, which will be highlighted by the exclusive international premiere of the action-packed miniseries, SEVENGER FIGHT.

SEVENGER FIGHT is an all-new mini series that has only been shown on the Tsuburaya Imagination streaming service in Japan. The series features the most popular giant and iconic robot from the celebrated Ultraman franchise. The project is premiering on the heels of Ultraman's 55th Anniversary and represents a new era of entertainment in the Ultraman universe. The ICEBERG THEORY event will showcase six episodes of SEVENGER FIGHT, including a selection of three of the first 7 episodes and the final three episodes of the mini-series which will not be shown anywhere else in the world.

SEVENGER FIGHT has only been shown in Japan-leaving millions of fans of the sad-eyed Kaiju-fighting super robot desperate to catch a glimpse of the series. Not only will ICEBERG THEORY offer fans the ability to stream the several key episodes of SEVENGER FIGHT, but the event will also offer a Live From Tokyo interview with fan-favorite star Rima Matsuda (who pilots Sevenger), Takaya Aoyagi (who plays antihero Jugglus Juggler), and series director Kiyotaka Taguchi. Hosting the interview will be Sean Nichols, the popular American star of Ultraman Max.

ICEBERG THEORY also builds out unique, immersive programming, experiences, and events for streaming and social media platforms, helping partners realize the true promise of these vital new production approaches.

"New and more compelling transmedia and interactive strategies have risen in the wake of production restrictions," said Jeff Gomez, who will be acting as Chief Content Officer for ICEBERG THEORY. "An amazing treat for any genre fan, this approach combines our understanding of brand essence, virtual production, and participative storytelling.

ICEBERG THEORY will also be led by Tiffany L. Gray as Chief Production Officer, Joe Niedecken as Chief Strategy Officer, and Jeremy Hughes as its CEO.

"What is exciting about this new company is how our activation capabilities combine with Starlight Runner's storytelling. We have great experience producing across multiple platforms, including virtual production and can extend into multiple channels seamlessly. We've done live events, interactive, and on-demand. It can be entirely digital or an extension of physical, completely imaginative or something quite grounded." said Jeremy Hughes, CEO for ICEBERG THEORY. "Most of all, we've been successfully learning how to build the right experience mix for the audiences that exceeds KPIs and create unique direct to consumer experiences that drive real-time sales."

"ICEBERG THEORY can also generate brand strategies and creative advertising, music-driven productions, and charity events." said Tiffany L. Gray, CPO. "We can align and execute everything we pitch at industry-leading quality and better. We now have proprietary methodologies that allow us to do all of this faster, better, and at less cost than industry leaders."
