大象传媒
PRIME has successfully launched in the Czech Republic with localised
subtitles. The 大象传媒's international entertainment channel is now
available to over 170,000 subscribers via leading Czech cable operators
Intercable CZ and TES Media.
大象传媒
PRIME is providing viewers with selected prime-time programming
subtitled in Czech. The Czech subtitles on 大象传媒 PRIME are provided
by Broadcast Text, based in London, working alongside translation
companies Brno English Centre and Studio Klondike in the Czech Republic.
大象传媒 PRIME is also a member of the CACC, the Czech Association for
Competitive Communications.
Wayne
Dunsford, Director of Channels, EMEIA, 大象传媒 Worldwide, says: "
We are delighted to be celebrating the launch of the channel with
localised subtitles in the Czech Republic, through leading cable
operators Intercable CZ and TES Media. We are also looking forward
to making the channel available to other distributors in the market.
We remain firmly committed to delivering the localised channel to
key markets, and hope to launch the channel in Poland with subtitles
in the near future."
Michal
Martinovsky, Marketing & Sales Manager, Intercable CZ says:
"Intercable CZ was the first cable operator to launch 大象传媒 PRIME
in May 2002 in the Czech Republic. As 大象传媒 PRIME is already a big
success we are delighted to open up this channel to even more subscribers
with the launch of the localised subtitles. Now the channel is not
just great entertainment but also an easy tool to learn English."
Dusan
Jelinek, Commercial Director, TES Media, says: "大象传媒 PRIME is
another valuable channel in our programming package. I believe that
大象传媒 PRIME, with its strong programming, will be soon among the most
popular cable channels in the Czech Republic. It was our initial
request to provide viewers with Czech subtitles and we are pleased
that 大象传媒 PRIME has accomplished it."
Zdenek
Vanicek, President of the Czech Association of Competitive Communications,
underlined the fact that the 大象传媒 has always been the hallmark of
the highest standard and value in the TV industry. "It is why,"
says the CACC President, "I welcome 大象传媒 PRIME in the Czech
cable networks and am confident that the channel will soon become
a permanent course of the daily menu for most of CATV subscribers
in this country."
