January 1, 2013
NGL Media, a distributor and producer of in-culture video content for digitally-connected Latinos has launched a series of YouTube channels featuring ten different Latino shows including originals and those of producers NGL currently works with. The two primary channels, Vida Latina http://www.youtube.com/vidalatina> and HombreTV http://www.youtube.com/hombretv> , will feature new weekly episodes. Each show also has its own YouTube channel operated by the content producers themselves where viewers can see more content.
NGL Media’s video network already spans thousands of premium distribution outlets featuring tailored in-language and in-culture content generating upwards of 20MM views per month. The addition of YouTube by way of the video powerhouse’s expansive platform is reflective of NGL Media’s in-culture video everywhere™ strategy aimed at reaching Latinos from a Total Market perspective.
“We’re very excited to be distributing via YouTube and launching these two new channels,” says Ben Leff, COO of NGL Media. “YouTube is the leader in online video and serves as a great extension to our current content distribution network, giving even greater visibility to our content partners and NGL Media’s originally produced programming.”
