Corporate Overview

We are an emerging entertainment media company. Our business model has evolved to incorporate innovative structures and technology to address the marketing, sales and releasing of filmed entertainment. The current business direction includes the acquisition of existing libraries of motion pictures and television programming which will be marketed and sold internationally under a new brand. We will also utilize its existing online platform to maximize revenues from filmed entertainment. Additional near term plans include the formation of an entity which we will use to release motion pictures and the further acquisition of undervalued entertainment assets.

Our principal executive and head offices are located at 1601 Cloverfield Boulevard, 2nd Floor, South Tower, Santa Monica, California. Sales and marketing operations are primarily based out of our head office. Research, development and technical support offices are located at 1040 Hamilton Street, Vancouver, British Columbia.

History

We are a Nevada corporation, incorporated on April 14, 1998 under the name "The Enterprise, Inc." For a period of time prior to December 14, 1998, we were engaged in the word processing business. We changed our name to eHealth.com, Inc. in anticipation of acquiring a license to software technology for the health industry, however the acquisition was never consummated.

On September 21, 1999, we changed our name to "InternetStudios.com, Inc." Since that date, we have been in the business of providing web-based solutions for the entertainment industry. We own a proprietary online platform and database to transact film and television rights.

We have the following subsidiaries:

(6) On June 29, 2000, InternetStudios formed InternetStudios Entertainment Finance ("IEF") to provide interim financing for the production of filmed entertainment projects with budgets between $2 million and $8 million. This is an inactive company.

Onlinefilmsales.com, LLC

OnlineFilmSales.com, LLC is a manager-managed limited liability company formed in Delaware. Except for matters as to which the approval of the members is required by Delaware law, the manager of OnlineFilmSales has full, complete and exclusive authority, power and discretion to manage and control the business, property and affairs of OnlineFilmSales. OnlineFilmSales has one manager, InternetStudios. The manager of OnlineFilmSales is elected by the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of all voting interests of Class A members of OnlineFilmSales.

Effective March 28, 2000, substantially all of InternetStudios' assets were contributed (the "Asset Contribution") to OnlineFilmSales. Included in the Asset Contribution were (i) InternetStudios' 91.847% membership interest in Online Films, LLC so that Online Films, LLC became a subsidiary of OnlineFilmSales, and (ii) a Secured Promissory Note, originally issued on November 12, 1999 (as amended several times and having a final principal balance of $2,025,000), by MediaChase Ltd., a Delaware corporation in favor of InternetStudios (the "MediaChase Note"). Excluded from the Asset Contribution to OnlineFilmSales were all trademarks, trade names, and domain names containing "InternetStudios.com" or "InternetStudios" and all associated goodwill, InternetStudios' equity interest in InternetStudiosUK Limited, and InternetStudios' rights under a Letter of Intent dated March 15, 2000 with TAMNW, Inc. (as discussed below). In exchange for the Asset Contribution, OnlineFilmSales issued to InternetS tudios all of the Class A membership interests in OnlineFilmSales.

Concurrently with the Asset Contribution, two members of InternetStudios' then management also made contributions to OnlineFilmSales in exchange for Class B membership interests in OnlineFilmSales. Heidi Lester, the then Chief Executive Officer of InternetStudios, contributed to OnlineFilmSales an 8.153% interest in Online Films and Steve Fredericks, the then Acting President and Chief Financial Officer of InternetStudios, contributed all of his interest in certain agreements relating to the development of a digital production center and a related digital training program for artists and producers in the People's Republic of China. As a result of the contribution to OnlineFilmSales of Heidi Lester's membership interest in Online Films, LLC, Online Films LLC became a wholly owned subsidiary of OnlineFilmSales.

The holders of Class B membership interests in OnlineFilmSales were entitled to convert their interests into shares of InternetStudios' common stock at any time. Steve Fredericks converted 39.15% of his Class B Membership Interest into 7,829 shares of InternetStudios' common stock on March 30, 2001 and Heidi Lester's Class B Membership Interest was converted into 30,000 shares of InternetStudios' common stock on May 29, 2001.

Reportertv.com, LLC

InternetStudios, through OnlineFilmSales, entered into a joint venture with MediaChase Ltd., a Los Angeles based software company, on March 28, 2000 to form ReporterTV.com, LLC.

To fund the development of ReporterTV, InternetStudios advanced $2,025,000 in the form of a loan, evidenced by the MediaChase Note. As a part of the Asset Contribution, InternetStudios contributed to OnlineFilmSales, all of its rights as payee under the MediaChase Note. OnlineFilmSales contributed all of its rights as payee under the MediaChase Note to ReporterTV and MediaChase assigned all of its obligations as payor under the MediaChase Note to ReporterTV, as a result of which contribution and assignment, the MediaChase Note has been cancelled.

In consideration of the cancellation of the MediaChase Note and the issuance by OnlineFilmSales to MediaChase of Class B membership interests convertible into 12,500 shares of InternetStudios' common stock, MediaChase (i) entered into a Consulting Agreement with each of OnlineFilmSales and StudioBuzz.com, LLC, (ii) contributed certain assets to ReporterTV and StudioBuzz.com, LLC, and (iii) contributed to OnlineFilmSales (a) a 75% membership interest in ReporterTV and (b) a 100% voting interest and 50% economic interest in StudioBuzz.com, LLC. Pursuant to the terms of the Limited Liability Agreement with ReporterTV ("RTV Agreement"), MediaChase had a one-time right to repurchase all or any part of a 25% membership interest in ReporterTV, upon the payment of certain sums to ReporterTV on or before January 31, 2001, which payment of sums did not occur.

Pursuant to the terms of the RTV Agreement, OnlineFilmSales is not obligated to fund ReporterTV for amounts over and above a defined contribution cap of $1,650,000, which contribution was provided by OnlineFilmSales. Additionally, pursuant to the terms of the RTV Agreement, OnlineFilmSales has no ongoing financial obligation to ReporterTV and is entitled to look to MediaChase to provide financing for the company. As no financial resources were made available to fund the ongoing operations of the company, ReporterTV's activities ceased during fiscal year 2001, and the company has not been operational since May 15, 2001.

Business Overview

Through our online platform, www.oftvs.com, we provide an enterprise solution complete with transactional capabilities for the licensing of filmed entertainment, complementary technology to track such transactions, and relevant and timely industry data and information. We are also in the process of acquiring existing libraries of motion pictures and television programming, which will be marketed and sold using traditional marketing methods and our online platform. We anticipate that this will yield multiple revenue streams including:

- DVD and VHS sales through the acquisition of the library of motion pictures from Bigle as discussed below;

- Subscription fees for use of our online platform;

- Sales revenue from content owned or brokered by our company; and

- Marketing fees for email campaigns, creation of online marketing campaigns and co-marketing ventures for non-InternetStudios' owned films.

In addition, we are actively seeking to acquire additional entertainment assets including the right to remake previously released motion pictures.

In March 2002, we entered into a marketing partnership with DISCOP to develop an enterprise version of our OnlineFilmandTVSales platform. DISCOP is managed by Key3Media East, a division of the Key3Media Group, Inc. We were chosen exclusively by DISCOP to create and develop the look of the site called Discop+. During the year, Key3Media, DISCOP's parent company, went bankrupt and accordingly we will not be proceeding forward with DISCOP.

Trocadero Film Library

On February 13, 2003, we entered into a Letter of Intent with Dominque Bigle to acquire Bigle's library of over 1,500 motion pictures. In consideration for acquiring the library of motion pictures, we agreed to issue to Bigle one million (1,000,000) common shares of our capital stock and to pay him $300,000. As of March 14, 2003, we have paid $50,000 to Bigle as a deposit towards the acquisition. We expect to complete this acquisition on or before May 1, 2003.

Once this acquisition is complete, we intend to exploit the library of motion pictures by selling those pictures on digital video disc and on video on demand and we will market the products through the internet using our proprietary technology platform as well as traditional marketing means. We anticipate that Bigle will be engaged by us and will be responsible for the exploitation of and maximization of revenues from this library of motion pictures.

We also intend to continue to explore other available business opportunities whereby we can add to our library of filmed entertainment assets and build a niche-oriented digital video disc releasing and merchandising company.

Industry Description

Following a decade of mergers and restructuring, the entertainment industry now comprises seven major film distributors/studios: Sony Pictures, Paramount, Twentieth Century Fox, Warner Brothers, The Walt Disney Company, MGM/UA and Universal. Today, the major studios are multi-national, multi-media, and mass marketing communication complexes with wholly-owned distribution operations throughout the world. In addition to these major seven, there are numerous independent production and distribution companies.

Historically, filmed entertainment rights have been bought and sold primarily through major and minor film festivals and trade shows. Producers create over 12,000 films and hundreds of thousand of hours of television programs each year. Each project requires marketing of the distribution rights for different media, such as theatrical release, video sales and rental, video on demand, pay television, free television and the internet, in every geographic market. This results in six or more licenses for each production in as many as 200 territories. The rise of independent feature film and television productions over the last 15 years has created a demand for a more efficient marketplace for distribution of the rights for these filmed entertainment.

The market for filmed entertainment rights is fragmented. There is no central service available for entertainment industry executives to access information with respect to the availability and nature of filmed entertainment rights. Currently, the entertainment industry utilizes a combination of subscription database services, trade magazines and relies heavily on the networking of staff and attendance at the film markets and festivals to locate and purchase project exploitation and distribution rights or list and license their available inventories. The market is inefficient, labor intensive and the cost of concluding a licensing arrangement can be prohibitively high.

The proliferation of distribution platforms, including digital video disc, video on demand and digital cable is rapidly expanding the global market for filmed entertainment. Just as record buyers embraced the compact disc format years ago, movie viewers have taken to the digital video disc. We expect that digital video disc sales will increase significantly in the next couple of years.

One of the other trends expected to dominate the next decade is the continuation of the focus on remakes and sequels of old motion pictures. In the 1990's, Hollywood produced over 100 remakes of old motion pictures. We believe that there are significant market opportunities to create efficiencies in the market through technology and innovative systems to address the marketing and sales of filmed entertainment globally.

Filmed entertainment rights have been historically bought and sold primarily through major and minor film festivals and trade shows. These markets are highly inefficient for the following reasons:

- their fragmented, regional nature makes it difficult and expensive for buyers and vendors to meet, exchange information and complete transactions;

- they offer a limited breadth of filmed entertainment rights;

- they often have high transaction costs from intermediaries; and

- they are information inefficient, as buyers and vendors lack a reliable and convenient means of setting prices for sales or purchases.

The internet offers for the first time the opportunity to create a compelling global marketplace that overcomes the inefficiencies associated with traditional trading of filmed entertainment rights by offering the benefits of internet-based commerce. An internet-based centralized trading place offers the following benefits:

- facilitates buyers and vendors meeting, listing filmed entertainment rights for sale, exchanging information, interacting with each other and, ultimately, consummating transactions;

- allows buyers and vendors to trade directly, bypassing traditional intermediaries and lowering costs for both parties;

- is global in reach, offering buyers a significantly broader selection of filmed entertainment rights to purchase and providing vendors the opportunity to sell their filmed entertainment rights efficiently to a broader base of buyers; and

- offers significant convenience, allowing trading at all hours and providing continually updated information.

As a result, there exists a significant market opportunity for an internet-based centralized marketplace that applies the unique attributes of the internet to facilitate the trading of filmed entertainment rights directly from vendors to buyers.

Competition

We compete with the major studios, numerous independent motion picture and television companies. In addition, our filmed entertainment library competes for audience acceptance with those of other companies. The success of any of our products is dependent not only on the quality and acceptance of a particular motion picture or television program but also on the quality and acceptance of other competing filmed entertainment released into the marketplace at or near the same time.

To date, no substantial barriers to entry into the online business to business marketplace for filmed entertainment industry exist. Increased competition from new entrants could require us to respond to competitive pressures by establishing pricing, marketing and other programs or seeking out additional strategic alliances or acquisitions that may be less favorable to us than would otherwise be established or obtained, and thus could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. We believe that the principal competitive factors in our market are:

- filmed entertainment rights industry connections;

- brand recognition;

- selection;

- variety of value-added services;

- ease of use, site content;

- user and advertiser fulfilment;

- reliability;

- quality of search tools;

- customer service; and

- technical expertise.

Historically, key competitors have included: FilmFinders.com, Reeplay.com, FilmBazzaar.com, ScreenExchange.com, ShowBizData.com, Tivix.com, Hollywood Software Inc., and Jaguar Consulting. The operational status of these companies is unknown. However, there can be no assurance that our competitors will not develop services that are superior to ours or achieve greater market acceptance. Our failure to provide services that achieve success in the short term could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we compete with filmed entertainment rights transaction venues such as film festivals, subscription databases and trade magazines. The online venues competing with us may be acquired by, receive investments from, or enter into other commercial relationships with, larger, more established and more adequately financed companies as the use of the internet and other online services increases. Increased competition ma y result in reduced operating margins, loss of market share and a diminished brand franchise.

Technology

Our technology platform has been designed to support rapid, scalable deployment of buyer and seller services both online and offline to enhance the value for our customers which can range in size from small to large companies. Our platform creates value for our customers by saving costs and increasing sales of filmed entertainment.

All production equipment is co-located at the NetNations Data Center in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and is monitored 24 hours a day by the NetNations Operations Center. NetNations also provides secondary support to the production environment.

We will continually look to expand and stabilize the performance of its web servers, optimize the performance of its network servers and ensure the stable performance of its entire network. We may not be successful in its ongoing efforts to upgrade its systems, or if it does successfully upgrade its systems, we may not do so on time and within budget.

Intellectual Property

We regard the protection of our copyrights, service marks, trademarks, trade dress and trade secrets as critical to our success. We rely on a combination of copyright, trademark, service mark and trade secret laws and contractual restrictions to protect our proprietary rights in products and services. We maintain confidentiality and invention assignment agreements with our employees and contractors, and nondisclosure agreements with parties with which we conduct business to limit access to and disclosure of our proprietary information. Any contractual arrangements and the other steps taken by us to protect our intellectual property may not prevent misappropriation of our technology or deter independent third-party development of similar technologies.

InternetStudios became a registered mark with the United States Trademark and Patent Office's Supplemental Registry effective April 2, 2002. In addition, we have registered the following domain names: internetstudios.com, onlinefilmsales.com, oftvs.com, ismedia.biz and ismedia.us.

Employees

As of March 24, 2003, we employed six people, four in the area of corporate administration and two in sales and marketing. We also have four independent contractors providing management consulting services and capital raising services. We are not subject to any collective bargaining agreements and we consider relations with our employees to be excellent.

RISK FACTORS

Much of the information included in this annual report includes or is based upon estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements". Such forward-looking statements include any projections or estimates made by us and our management in connection with our business operations. While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions, or other future performance suggested herein. We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements.

Such estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements" involve various risks and uncertainties as outlined below. We caution readers of this annual report that important factors in some cases have affected and, in the future, could materially affect actual results and cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in any such estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements". In evaluating us, our business and any investment in our business, readers should carefully consider the following factors.

We are an early stage company and have not earned any significant revenues which makes it difficult to evaluate whether we will operate profitably.

To December 31, 2002, we have incurred regular operating losses and have no significant source of revenue. Unanticipated problems, expenses and delays are frequently encountered in ramping up sales and launching new businesses. Our ability to successfully acquire additional filmed entertainment assets, to utilize our website and to generate significant operating revenues will depend on our ability to successfully develop and maintain a brand name for our products and to attract new and maintain old users of our services.

Given our limited operating history, operating losses and other factors set out above, there can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve our goals and develop a sufficiently large user base of our website to be profitable. Our management intends to raise debt and equity capital as needed on a private placement basis to finance the operating and capital requirements. In addition, our management expects cash flow from operations to increase over the next year. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as described in an explanatory paragraph to our independent auditors' report on the December 31, 2002 audited financial statements. Our future will depend upon our ability to obtain adequate financing and continuing support from stockholders and creditors and to achieve and maintain profitable operations. To the extent that we cannot achieve our plans and generate revenues, which exceed expenses on a consistent basis and in a timely mann er, our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects would be materially adversely affected.

Failure to manage future growth may adversely affect our business.

If our management is unable to manage growth effectively, then our operations could be adversely affected. We will need to add staff to market our library and website, manage operations, and perform finance and accounting functions. We will be required to hire a broad range of additional personnel in order to successfully advance our operations. This growth is likely to place a strain on our management and operational resources. The failure to develop and implement effective systems, or to hire and retain sufficient personnel for the performance of all of the functions necessary to effectively service and manage our potential business or the failure to manage growth effectively, could have a materially adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

We must develop a marketing program to generate any significant revenues.

We will be required to develop a marketing campaign that will effectively make buyers aware of our filmed entertainment library as well as demonstrate the advantages of our website and services. We may also elect to enter into agreements or relationships with third parties regarding the promotion or marketing of our library and website services. There can be no assurance that we will be able to establish adequate marketing capabilities, that we will be able to enter into marketing agreements or relationships with third parties on financially acceptable terms or that any third parties with whom we enter into such arrangements will be successful in marketing and promoting our website and services.

Our success depends on our personnel.

Our performance is substantially dependent on the expertise of key management personnel, and our ability to continue to hire and retain such personnel. It may be difficult to find sufficiently qualified individuals to replace key management personnel if we were to lose any one or more of them. Accordingly, the loss of any of our key management personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, development, financial condition, and operating results.

We do not maintain "key person" life insurance on any of our directors or senior executive officers.

Our success depends on external factors in the film and television industry.

Operating in the television and film distribution industry involves a substantial degree of risk. Each television program and motion picture is a unique piece of art that depends on unpredictable audience reaction to determine commercial success. There can be no assurance that our television programs and feature films will be favorably received and even if our products are initially successful, the popularity of any given program may diminish over time.

We face competition.

The sale and distribution of filmed entertainment is a highly competitive business. Many of our competitors are larger and better capitalized than us and have existing distribution channels. In addition, the number of films or television products released in any given period may create an oversupply of product in the market, and that may reduce our share of potential sales and make it more difficult for the films in our library to succeed.

We face inherent international trade risks.

Selling and distributing filmed entertainment around the world results in a percentage of our revenue coming from sources outside of North America. Consequently, our business is subject to certain risks inherent in international trade, many of which are beyond our control. These risks include:

- changes in laws and policies affecting trade;

- changes to laws and policies related to investments and taxes;

- varying degrees of protection for intellectual property;

- instability of foreign economies and governments; and

- cultural barriers.

These factors can adversely affect our business and result of operations.

Since our shares are thinly traded and trading on the OTCBB trading may be sporadic because it is not an exchange, stockholders may have difficulty reselling their shares.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board and is thinly traded. In the past, our trading price has fluctuated widely, depending on many factors that may have little to do with our operations or business prospects. In addition, the OTC Bulletin Board is not an exchange and, because trading of the securities on the OTC Bulletin Board is often more sporadic than the trading of securities listed on an exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc., you may have difficulty reselling any of our common shares.

Trading of our stock may be restricted by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") penny stock regulations which may limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors." The term "accredited investor" refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broke r-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to t hese penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

We do not expect to declare or pay any dividends.

We have not declared or paid any dividends on our common stock since our inception and we do not anticipate paying any such dividends for the foreseeable future.

Item 2. Properties.

We sublease office space at 1601 Cloverfield Boulevard, 2nd Floor, South Tower, Santa Monica, California. These offices are rented on a month-to-month basis for $225 per month. This is where our principal execute offices are located.

We also lease office space at 1040 Hamilton Street, Vancouver, British Columbia on a month to month basis. This office is approximately 3,000 square feet in size. The monthly rental is $3,684 (CDN$5,500) which includes operating costs.

We believe that our existing facilities are adequate for our needs through at least the end of 2003. Should we require additional space at that time, or prior thereto, we believe that such space can be secured on commercially reasonable terms.

The leases on our previous offices in Santa Monica, California and London, England expired and we vacated our premises.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

Other than set out below, we know of no material, active or pending legal proceedings against us, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.

Three of our former employees have received judgments against us. One received a Stipulated Judgment against us in the amount of $10,000 from the Los Angeles County Superior Court on April 10, 2002. Two have received an Order, Decision or Award from the Labour Commissioner of California. The first was awarded against OnlineFilmSales.com, LLC in the amount of $11,328.09 on July 10, 2001; the second was awarded against InternetStudios and OnlineFilmSales.com, LLC in the amount of $26,578.24 on May 29, 2002. As of March 24, 2003, no payments have been made to any of these former employees.

August Entertainment, Inc. brought an action against us on September 7, 2000, in Los Angeles County Superior Court for breach of contract arising from an alleged contract for distribution of films. This matter was settled in December 2001. Pursuant to the terms of the settlement, we agreed to pay August Entertainment $70,000, of which $46,000 has been paid as of March 24, 2003.

On or about September 5, 2001, Total Creative, Inc. filed a complaint in Los Angeles County Superior Court against OnlineFilmandTVSales.com, Inc. for money allegedly due for work and services allegedly supplied by the claimant. On November 27, 2001, the claimant received a Default Money Judgment in the amount of $34,531.49. As of March 24, 2003, no payment has been made to Total Creative.

On November 5, 2001, we agreed to an Arbitration Award, from the American Arbitration Association, in favor of Sitrick and Company in the sum of $42,000 on the condition that the Award not be confirmed or entered as a judgment in California or any other jurisdiction until after February 5, 2002. We are currently in negotiation with Sitrick and Company to reach an amicable resolution of Sitrick's claim for money owed and there are no plans to have the Award entered as a judgment.

Certain former employees as well as potential creditors have indicated an intention to pursue alleged claims against us by taking legal action. To date no actions have been filed against us. In our management's opinion, any actions that may arise from these claims are immaterial to us or are without significant merit.

On November 15, 2002, the Hollywood Reporter Incorporated commenced a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of British Columbia (Vancouver Registry). Hollywood's claim is for debt arising for the failure to pay of advertising published in Hollywood's periodical. The amount of the claim is $8,843 plus costs and interest. We have filed a Statement of Defence and intend to defend this lawsuit.

Although no assurance can be given as to the outcome of any potential lawsuit, we believe that the ultimate outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations and we intend to vigorously defend against any action.

Item 4. Submissions of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

There were no matters submitted to a vote of our security holders either through solicitation of proxies or otherwise in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002.

Item 7. Management's Discussions and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.

Overview

You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations together with the consolidated audited financial statements and the notes to consolidated audited financial statements included elsewhere in this filing prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

We are an emerging Entertainment Media Company. Our business model has evolved to incorporate innovative structures and technology to address the marketing, sales and releasing of filmed entertainment. The current business direction includes the acquisition of existing libraries of motion pictures and television programming which will be marketed and sold internationally under a new and exciting brand. We will also utilize its existing online platform to maximize revenues from filmed entertainment. Additional near term plans include the formation of a releasing entity and the further acquisition of undervalued entertainment assets.

We are focused on acquiring undervalued assets to exploit through our proprietary online platform as well as through traditional marketing means.

Results of Operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001

The discussion set forth below relating to results of operations pertains to the comparison of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001.

Revenues

We have recognized revenues to date of $220,921, all of which are from operating revenues sources. We recognized $nil revenues in the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to $82,555 for the previous year. Historically we have recognized revenue from our customers listing material on the oftvs website as well as revenues from transactions consummated by buyers and sellers using the oftvs platform. Revenues ceased in 2001 as we focused all of our resources on raising capital, reorganizing and streamlining operations and developing a self sustaining business model that would see us focus on more traditional film and television marketing efforts.

Cost of Revenues

We have currently not recognized significant revenues to date, and therefore have not allocated any significant amounts to cost of revenues. Once our revenues increase, costs of revenues will primarily consist of costs associated with marketing, customer service activities and allocation of overhead.

Advertising and Marketing Expenses

For the year ended December 31, 2002, we had no expenses related to advertising and marketing as compared to $222,061 for the year ended December 31, 2001. The decrease of advertising and marketing expenses is a result of the implementation of the restructuring plan.

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for general and corporate functions, including finance, accounting, facilities and fees for legal and other professional services. Our general and administrative expenses, excluding website development costs, for the period ended December 31, 2002 were $828,636 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2001 were $4,770,787. Our general and administrative expenses, excluding website development costs, for the period from inception and the year ended December 31, 2002 were $27,539,100 of which $10,925,152 were non-cash related to stock based compensation. The decrease of general and administrative expenses is primarily a result of the implementation of a restructuring plan that resulted in a reduction in personnel costs, lease and office costs, and a reduction in legal and accounting fees.

Summary

Presently, we have no significant sources of revenue. We have incurred operating losses since inception. The continuation of our business is dependent upon the continuing financial support of our creditors and stockholders, obtaining further financing, our acquiring additional filmed entertainment assets, the successful and sufficient market acceptance of our products and online platform and achieving a profitable level of operations. There are, however, no assurances we will be able to generate further funds required for our continued operations. Accordingly, our consolidated financial statements contain note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead there to be doubt over our ability to continue as a going concern. In their report on the consolidated financial statements, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.

Net Loss

Our net loss was $1,203,871 and $26,853,427 for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 respectively. The primary reason for the reduction in net loss is due to the implementation of our restructuring plan in 2001 that involved the writedown of goodwill, the reduction in personnel, office lease commitments and subsequent writedown on disposal of assets, Management feels that the restructuring plan is now complete and that ongoing net loss and/or gain will be a result from operations.

Results of Operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000

The discussion set forth below relating to results of operations pertains to the comparison of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000.

Revenues

InternetStudios has recognized revenues to date of $220,921, all of which are from operating revenues sources. We recognize revenue from our customers listing material on the OFTVS website as well as revenues from transactions consummated by buyers and sellers using the OFTVS system.

Cost of Revenues

InternetStudios has currently not recognized significant revenues to date, and therefore has not allocated any significant amounts to cost of revenues. Once InternetStudios' revenues increase, cost of revenues will primarily consist of costs associated with marketing, customer service activities, and server and network operations, and to a lesser extent, bank and escrow processing charges on fees earned on transactions, internet connection charges, depreciation of server and network equipment and allocation of overhead.

Advertising and Marketing Expenses

Costs related to InternetStudios' advertising and marketing efforts are currently classified as general and administrative expenses. InternetStudios' advertising and marketing expenses consist mainly of advertising expenses, creative development and promotional costs and commissions, and compensation for advertising and marketing personnel. The majority of these costs were directed to programs designed to build brand name recognition, attract filmed entertainment companies and individuals to InternetStudios' websites, and to attract motion pictures and television programming for listing on the OnlineFilmandTVSales.com web site.

Website and Development Expenses

These expenses consist primarily of payroll and related expenses for development in network operations personnel and consultants, cost related to modifications, enhancement and new operations to enhance our websites. Website development costs as of December 31, 2000 were $9,536,992 of which $2,639,668 were capitalized under EITF 00-02 and $4,750,000 were recorded as a non-cash cost related to stock based compensation. At December 31, 2001 website development costs were $16,281, none of which were capitalized under EITF 00-02. InternetStudios expects to incur additional website development and maintenance expense in the future.

General and Administrative Expenses

InternetStudios' general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for general and corporate functions, including finance, accounting, facilities and fees for legal and other professional services. InternetStudios' general and administrative expenses, excluding website development costs, for the period from inception and ended December 31, 2000 were $22,013,775 of which $10,925,152 were non-cash related to stock based compensation. At December 31, 2001 these costs were $4,852,157.

Summary

Presently, we have no significant sources of revenue. We have incurred operating losses since inception. The continuation of our business is dependent upon the continuing financial support of our creditors and stockholders, obtaining further financing, successful and sufficient market acceptance of updated versions of our existing services and achieving a profitable level of operations. There are, however, no assurances we will be able to generate further funds required for our continued operations. Accordingly, our consolidated financial statements contain note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead there to be doubt over our ability to continue as a going concern. In their report on the consolidated financial statements, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

From inception, we have financed our operations entirely from private placements and loans. As at December 31, 2002, we had $2,617 in cash and cash equivalents as compared to $nil at December 31, 2001. Since inception, we have had negative cash flows from operating activities in each fiscal and quarterly period to date.

Net cash used in operating activities was $393,448 for the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to $1,538,694 for the year ended December 31, 2001. Net cash used in operating activities was $18,576,291 for the period from inception to the year ended December 31, 2002. The net cash was used for minimal general operations. In addition, in 2002, we realized a gain in settlement on debt of $153,280 and a gain on the write off of accounts payable of $796,820 as part of the reorganization. We realized a loss on the amortization and write down of website development costs of $1,361,260.

As shown in our financial statements, we have sustained substantial losses from operations since inception. As of the date of this annual report, we have utilized substantially all of our available funding. Our continuation as a going concern will depend on our ability to raise additional capital. No assurance can be given that we will be able to raise additional funds. In the absence of such funds, we will be required to cease operations.

Our management has taken steps to revise and reduce our operating requirements, which we believe will be sufficient to assure continued operations and implementation of our plans. These steps include expense reduction in staffing, marketing and consulting, as well as a significant decrease in operating costs as a result of completion of Web developments activities. We are also in the process of securing additional capital through equity transactions, which will be required in order to continue operations.

Given our limited operating history, operating losses and other factors set out above, there can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve our goals and develop a self sustaining business model. Management intends to raise debt and equity capital as needed on a private placement basis to finance the operating and capital requirements of our company. We have recently engaged an investment bank to act as placement agent for any debt and equity offerings. In addition, management expects cash flow from operations to increase over the next year. It is management's intention to continue to continue to modify our company's business plan to focus on more traditional film and television marketing. These factors raise substantial doubt about our company's ability to continue as a going concern as described in Note 2 to the Financial Statements. The future operations of our company will depend upon our ability to obtain adequate financing and continuing support from stockholders and credit ors and to achieve and maintain profitable operations. To the extent that we cannot achieve our plans and generate revenues, which exceed expenses on a consistent basis and in a timely manner, our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects could be materially adversely affected.

In the event that our plans or assumptions change or prove inaccurate (due to delays in development, the inability to sign any significant sales agreements or generate revenues, unfavorable economic conditions, or other unforeseen circumstances), there can be no assurance that such additional financing would be available to us, or if available, that the terms of such additional financing will be acceptable to us.

Future Cash Requirements

We have engaged CapStone Investments, an investment bank to assist us in securing additional capital through a combination of offering debt and securities in our company.

We expect that the implementation of our new business strategy will lead to increased revenues in 2003 and 2004. Our plans indicate a requirement of approximately $500,000 to continue to expand our operations to the end of June 30, 2003, $250,000 of which is required to complete the acquisition of the library of motion pictures. The balance of $250,000 will be required to support general corporate expenses, including expenses in connection with the engaging of both senior and intermediate management personnel, other general operating expenses and to implement our digital video disc sales and marketing program. We intend to raise the balance of the cash requirements through private placements or by debt financing.

In addition, over the next twelve months, our capital plan contemplates the company raising $10 million in order to implement our new business strategy. Seven ($7) million of this amount will be used to acquire media assets, which in the company's opinion are undervalued and exploitable in the digital video disc format and in the near future through emerging technologies. We have identified a number of opportunities in this regard. These acquisitions will also enable us to create remakes or sequels of existing motion pictures. Two ($2) million of this financing will be used to re-master motion pictures from the Trocadero Library for release on digital video disc and to create a menu of added features. We intend to role out a minimum of 20 digital video disc in the next 18 month period. The remaining $1 million will be set aside for operating expenses for the company.

Plan of Operations

Our primary objective over the twelve months ending December 31, 2003 will be to build a niche distribution platform to maximize revenues from filmed entertainment content in all formats through the building a brand, the re-labelling of classic content and strict asset management. We intend to focus on creating efficiencies through technology and innovative systems to address the marketing and sales of filmed entertainment globally.

Additionally, we intend to assemble a major library of filmed content by expanding the number of copyrights and distribution rights that InternetStudios owns, represents or brokers, which will generate growth and annuity income.

We will continue to utilize our online platform at www.oftvs.com and at the same time complete development of an off-line filmed entertainment catalogue management systems, which will communicate with the online marketplace.

Sales and Marketing

The digital video disc format for movies has experienced unprecedented popularity and has driven a global swell of consumer demand for movies on disk, both for new releases and for older catalogue titles. Domestic digital video disc revenues reached $8.4 billion in 2002.

InternetStudios intends to capitalize on this opportunity by providing mainstream-friendly entertainment with worldwide commercial appeal in a low-risk, cost-efficient manner. We plan to exploit our own films in digital video disc format from the Trocadero Library featuring special features and to acquire high quality assets that will be exploitable from a video and ancillary media perspective.

As part of this plan, we intend to distribute or sell directly to mass merchandisers, such as Wal-Mart Stores Inc., Costco Wholesale Corporation, Target Corporation and Best Buy Co. Inc., and others who buy large volumes of digital video disc's to sell directly to the consumer in international markets.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1998, SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" was issued. SFAS No. 133 requires companies to recognize all derivatives contracts as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and to measure them at fair value. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging derivative with the recognition of (I) the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk or (ii) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. For a derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change. SFAS No. 133 was effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.

Historically, our company has not entered into derivatives contracts either to hedge existing risks or for speculative purposes. Accordingly, adoption of the new standards on January 1, 2001 did not affect our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") finalized SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS 141 requires the use of the purchase method of accounting and prohibits the use of the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS 141 also requires that we recognize acquired intangible assets apart from goodwill if the acquired intangible assets meet certain criteria. SFAS 141 applies to all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and for purchase business combinations completed on or after July 1, 2001. It also requires, upon adoption of SFAS 142 that we reclassify the carrying amounts of intangible assets and goodwill based on the criteria in SFAS 141.

SFAS 142 requires, among other things, that companies no longer amortise goodwill, but instead test goodwill for impairment at least annually. In addition, SFAS 142 requires that we identify reporting units for the purposes of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill, reassess the useful lives of other existing recognized intangible asset, and cease Amortization of intangible assets with an indefinite useful life. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life should be tested for impairment in accordance with the guidance in SFAS 142. SFAS 142 is required to be applied in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 to all goodwill and other intangible assets recognized at that date, regardless of when those assets were initially recognized. SFAS 142 requires us to complete a transitional goodwill impairment test six months from the date of adoption. We are also required to reassess the useful lives of other intangible assets within the first interim quarter after adoption of SFAS 142.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". SFAS No. 144 requires that those long-lived assets be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or in discontinued operations. Therefore, discontinued operations will no longer be measured at net realizable value or include amounts for operating losses that have not yet occurred. SFAS No. 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and, generally, is to be applied prospectively.

In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Financial Accounting Standard No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure", an amendment of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation". The purpose of SFAS No. 148 is to: (1) provide alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation, (2) amend the disclosure provisions to require prominent disclosure about the effects on reported net income of an entity's accounting policy decisions with respect to stock-based employee compensation, and (3) to require disclosure of those effects in interim financial information. The disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 were effective for our company for the year ended December 31, 2002.

The implementation of these new standards is not expected to have a material effect on the our consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We have adopted the provisions of EITF 00-2 "Accounting for Web Site Development Costs" and development costs incurred subsequent to June 30, 2000, associated with the Company's Web Sites were recorded in accordance with EITF 00-2. Website development costs of $2,639,668 were capitalized in 2000 and were being amortized on the straight-line method over a period of 3 years. At December 31, 2002 unamortized website development costs of $471,638 were written off as we have determined that these costs no longer meet the criteria for deferral.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We do not utilize derivative instruments to manage market related risks. We do not have any long-term debt instruments so our company is not subject to market related risks such as interest or foreign exchange on long-term debt. All of our operations are conducted in the United States and thus, we are not exposed to significant risk of currency loss due to fluctuations in the Canadian and U.S. exchange rates.

AUDITORS' REPORT

 

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Internetstudios.com, Inc.

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Internetstudios.com, Inc. as at December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian and United States generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

COMMENTS BY AUDITORS FOR U.S. READERS ON CANADA-UNITED STATES REPORTING DIFFERENCES

In the United States, reporting standards for auditors would require the addition of an explanatory paragraph following the opinion paragraph when the financial statements are affected by conditions and events that cast substantial doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, such as those described in Note 1. Our report to the stockholders and Board of Directors dated March 15, 2003 is expressed in accordance with Canadian reporting standards which do not permit a reference to such conditions and events in the auditors' report when these are adequately disclosed in the financial statements.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements

INTERNETSTUDIO.COM, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2002 AND 2001

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

The Company was incorporated on April 14, 1998 in the State of Nevada as The Enterprise, Inc. Effective December 14, 1998, the Company changed its name to eHealth.com, Inc., and on September 20, 1999 changed its name to InternetStudios.com, Inc. The Company is emerging entertainment media company. It's business model has evolved to incorporate innovative structures and technology to address the marketing, sales and releasing of filmed entertainment. The current business direction includes the acquisition of existing libraries of motion pictures and television programming which will be marketed and sold internationally under a new and exciting brand. The Company will also utilize its existing online platform to maximize revenues from filmed entertainment. Additional near term plans include the formation of a releasing entity and the further acquisition of undervalued entertainment assets.

 

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, as shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has sustained substantial losses from operations since inception. In addition, the Company has used, rather than provided, cash in its operations. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,154,759 and has significantly reduced the scope of operations due to the lack of operating capital.

In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, there is substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue operations as a going concern. The continued operations of the Company are dependent upon the Company's ability to meet its financing requirements on a continuing basis and to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

Management of the Company has taken steps to revise and reduce its operating requirements, which it believes will be sufficient to assure continued operations and implementation of the Company's plans. These steps include expense reductions in staffing, marketing and consulting, as well as a decrease in operating costs.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles Of Consolidation

The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its inactive subsidiaries: OnlineFilmSales.com LLC, InternetStudios UK, Ltd., InternetStudios Entertainment Finance, Inc., and OnlineFilmandTVSales.com, Inc.; in turn, OnlineFilmsSales.com, LLC owns membership interests in two inactive limited liability companies, ReporterTV.com LLC and StudioBuzz.com LLC (collectively, "the Company"). All intercompany accounts and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use Of Estimates And Assumptions

Preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash And Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized at the time a transaction is consummated by a buyer and seller using the Company's website. The Company also may charge for its services and recognizes revenue at the time the customer lists material on the Company's website. Revenue related to financing of outside productions is amortized over the life of the agreement, typically 18 months, using a method that approximates the effective interest method.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd)

Foreign Currency Translation

The financial statements are presented in United States dollars. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation", foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated to their United States dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the year. Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity, whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations. Translation adjustments were immaterial for all periods presented.

Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic loss per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of the Company. Convertible securities and stock options were not included in the calculation of weighted average number of shares because the effect would be anti-dilutive.

Website Development Costs

The Company has adopted the provisions of EITF 00-2 "Accounting for Web Site Development Costs" and development costs incurred subsequent to June 30, 2000, associated with the Company's Web Sites were recorded in accordance with EITF 00-2. Website development costs of $2,639,668 were capitalized in 2000 and were being amortized on the straight-line method over a period of 3 years. At December 31, 2002 unamortized website development costs of $471,638 were written off as the Company has determined that these costs no longer meet the criteria for deferral.

Stock Based Compensation

In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Financial Accounting Standard No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure" ("SFAS No. 148"), an amendment of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"). The purpose of SFAS No. 148 is to: (1) provide alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation, (2) amend the disclosure provisions to require prominent disclosure about the effects on reported net income of an entity's accounting policy decisions with respect to stock-based employee compensation, and (3) to require disclosure of those effects in interim financial information. The disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 were effective for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2002.

 

In accordance with SFAS No. 123, the Company applies the fair value method using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model in accounting for options granted to consultants.

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and the conclusions reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force in Issue No. 96-18. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by EITF 96-18.

The Company has also adopted the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No.44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation - An Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25 ("FIN 44"), which provides guidance as to certain applications of APB 25. FIN 44 is generally effective July 1, 2000 with the exception of certain events occurring after December 15, 1998.

Foreign Currency Translation

The financial statements are presented in United States dollars. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation", foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated to their United States dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the year. Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity, whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.

Income Taxes

The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respective income tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

NOTE 4 - LOANS RECEIVABLE

Pursuant to settlement agreements executed in May 2002 the Company agreed to assign its outstanding loans receivable of $594,561 from a film production company and $323,679 due from a related party to certain creditors in satisfaction of outstanding debts of approximately $1,074,448 of which $416,000 was owing to two companies controlled by directors and officers of the Company, resulting in a gain of $86,208.

During February 2001 the Company received loans in the aggregate principal amount of $199,159 pursuant to convertible note agreements. These loans were non-interest bearing and were repayable on demand. The convertible note agreements provided the lender the right to convert the outstanding loan into shares of common stock at a price approximating the market price of the Company's shares at the time of notice. During February 2002 these loans were converted into 3,487,863 shares of common stock.

NOTE 7 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company had management contracts with two consulting firms owned by officers of the Company. The contracts provided for combined base salaries of $384,000 per annum for a three year term ending December 31, 2002 and granting of stock options providing the right to acquire a total of 13,300 post-consolidation shares of common stock at a price of $100 per share. All of the options have fully vested. The contracts included a severance provision of 150% of base salary which totals $576,000 for these two officers. By agreement dated January 5, 2002, as consideration for the termination of these management contracts and the release of the Company from any further obligations thereunder after May 31, 2002, these two officers agreed to accept 4,040,000 shares of common stock in settlement of the severance portion of the management contracts at an agreed amount of $230,684. Refer to Note 8.

During 2002, the Company paid a total of $137,915 pursuant to oral consulting agreements with its current officers and directors..

During 2000, the Company loaned a total of approximately $535,000 to an executive officer of the Company and a film production company owned and managed by this executive officer. Advances under the loan agreement were collateralized by all of the assets of the related company, bore interest at the prime rate plus 3% until March 31, 2001 and were due on demand. During the year ended December 31, 2001, due to uncertainty of recovery the Company recorded an impairment provision of $309,832 leaving a balance outstanding at December 31, 2001 of $373,679. During 2002 the Company received payment relating to this loan totalling $50,000 and the balance of this loan receivable was assigned to creditors in settlement of outstanding debts of the Company. Refer to Note 4.

NOTE 8 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

During December 2001 the Company completed a 20:1 roll-back of outstanding common shares which reduced the number of issued and outstanding shares from 16,414,844 to 820,742 shares.

During January 2002 the Directors approved a resolution to issue a maximum of 5,720,000 shares of common stock to certain directors, officers and employees in settlement of outstanding obligations that totaled $393,684. These obligations were settled at a price of $0.0571 per share resulting in a gain on settlement of debt of $67,072. These shares were issued on August 15, 2002. On December 11, 2002 the Company registered these shares for trading on a Form S-8 Registration Statement.

During February and March 2002 the Company issued a total of 3,487,863 shares of common stock on conversion of the outstanding convertible loans of $199,159.

During December, 2002 the Company completed a private placement of 171,000 common shares at a price of $.50 per share for net proceeds of $76,950 after a finder's fee of $8,550. In addition, 17,100 common shares were issued to the finder on this private placement.

In December 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved a U.S. Stock Incentive Plan for a maximum of 1,000,000 pre-consolidation shares of common stock and a non-U.S. Stock Incentive Plan for a maximum of 500,000 pre-consolidation shares of common stock (collectively "the Plans"), under which it is authorized to issue nonqualified and incentive stock options to key employees and consultants. The options have a term not to exceed 10 years and vest over a period of two to three years. At that time, the Board also approved grants of options for 1,012,500 pre-consolidation shares. The plan was approved by the Company's shareholders in January, 2000.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting For Stock Based Compensation", encourages, but does not require companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in previously issued standards. Accordingly, compensation cost for employee stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Company's stock at the date of grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Compensation cost or deferred compensation for stock options issued to employees has been recognized to the extent market value of the stock at the grant date exceeded the option price.

During 2002 the Company settled debt totaling $393,684 by the issuance of 5,720,000 shares at a price of $0.0571 per share resulting in a gain of $67,072.

NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES

Income taxes are provided pursuant to SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. The statement requires the use of an asset and liability approach for financial reporting for income taxes. If it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized. Accordingly, as the realization and use of the net operating loss carryforward is not probable, the tax benefit of the loss carryforward has been offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

NOTE 11 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments is made in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company, using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The fair value of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents and notes and accounts receivable and payable, approximate carrying value due to the short-term maturity of the instruments.

NOTE 12 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On February 13, 2003, the Company entered into a Letter of Intent with Dominique Bigle ("Bigle") to acquire Bigle's library of over 1500 motion pictures (the "Trocadero Library").

During 2000, we loaned a total of approximately $535,000 to Robert MacLean and a film production company owned and managed by Robert MacLean. Advances under the loan agreement were collateralized by all of the assets of the related company, bore interest at the prime rate plus 3% until March 31, 2001 and were due on demand. During the year ended December 31, 2001, due to uncertainty of recovery we recorded an impairment provision of $309,832 leaving a balance outstanding at December 31, 2001 of $373,679. During the year ended December 31, 2002, we received payment relating to this loan totalling $50,000 and the balance of this loan receivable was assigned to creditors in settlement of outstanding debts.

Item 14. Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, within the 90 days prior to the filing date of this report, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our company's disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our company's management, including our company's chairman and chief financial officer. Based upon that evaluation, our company's chairman and chief financial officer concluded that our company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There have been no significant changes in our company's internal controls or in other factors, which could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date we carried out our evaluation.
