NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1998
(UNAUDITED)
1. MAJOR CUSTOMERS
During the six months ended June 30, 1998, $907,100 of the
Company's revenue was derived from the release of new
made-for-television movie "Merlin: The Magic Begins". Licensing, to two
customers, of the rights for the movie in two European territories
accounted for approximately $350,000 and $100,000 of this revenue.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, approximately 50%
of the Company's revenue was derived from services provided to one U.S.
automobile company. The contracts and relationships with this customer
were part of the assets contributed to the KS&E joint venture which was
eventually sold.
2. SEASONAL INCOME
A substantial portion of the revenue from the production of
episodic television is usually recognized in the first and fourth quarters
of the calendar year because of the nature of the broadcast schedule. In
the six months ended June 30, 1998 the Company was deriving the majority
of revenue from one episodic television product. Management does
anticipate the release of two programs for the fall of 1998 which will
begin earning revenue in the fourth, or late third, quarters.
The Company's principal source of income for the quarter ended
June 30, 1997 were (a) the proceeds from the sale of the 51% interest in
Kaleidoscope Sports and Entertainment LLC, and (b) the accrual on an
equity basis, of the retained 49% interest in KS&E. Entertainment
properties, such as Tarzan: The Epic Adventures, typically generate
income in the fourth and first quarters, linked to delivery of
programming for the television broadcast season. The launch of "Hollywood
Discoveries" in June generated losses in the first month of operations
that were reported under the equity method.
3. RESTATEMENT
The financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 1997
have been restated to reflect the allocation of certain debt proceeds to
the issuance of related warrants as described in Notes 3 and 14 of the
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1997. The
restatement also includes the capitalization of the amortization cost
relating to the resulting debt discount, and the capitalization of
amounts that had previously been recorded as interest expense.

4. PROGRAM COST INVENTORY
Program cost inventory at June 30, consists of the following:
1998 1997
---- ----
Current portion $ 2,583,585 $ 298,729
Noncurrent portion 2,946,125 1,576,718
----------- ----------
Total Program Cost Inventory $ 5,529,710 $1,875,447
=========== ==========
5. DISTRIBUTION RIGHTS
The Company has acquired distribution rights in numerous
properties. Under these agreements, the Company distributes the
properties in the allotted territories on behalf of the owners in
exchange for receiving a substantial portion of the gross revenue.
Although these rights have substantial value, the historical cost
methodology required by generally accepted accounting principles does
not permit the recognition of these values in the financial statements
in excess of the costs of acquisition. With the exception of some minor
costs included in program cost inventory, the distribution rights had no
costs and therefore were not recorded in the financial statements.
Instead the Company will recognize revenue as it is earned in accordance
with its stated revenue recognition policy.
The properties for which the Company has distribution rights as
of June 30, 1998 are as follows:
D.R.E.A.M. Team
The Ice Fantasies Collection:
Gershwin On Ice
Superstars On Ice

6. NOTES PAYABLE
During the second quarter the Company borrowed $150,000 from an
entity affiliated with the Company's chairman and CEO. The entire balance
was still outstanding at June 30, 1998. The note bears interest at 15% per
annum and is payable on demand.
7. CONTINGENCY RELATED TO INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURE
The production costs for the two part premiere episode of "Tarzan,
The Epic Adventures" along with certain pre-release marketing costs were
funded by STI Entertainment ("STI") under an agreement by which STI was to
fund the production costs for the entire season's episodes in exchange for
significant gross profit participation. STI refused to supply the funding
for the remaining episodes. As a result, KSE incurred significant costs in
arranging for alternate financing. During 1997, STI asserted a claim for
an accounting contending that they were due monies for the premiere
episode. Management vigorously contests this claim, contending that STI
materially breached its contract with KSE, which material breach excused
any further performance of KSE thereunder, and also contending that KSE
has been damaged in an amount exceeding $2,800,000. A complaint has been
filed by KSE against STI and others seeking damages for breach of contract
and to declare that KSE is excused from all future performance under the
contract. Management and STI are now engaged in settlement discussions.
Despite management's belief that it has a strong case for the damages
claim against STI and against STI's claim for profit participation, due to
the uncertainties inherent in litigation, it is at least reasonably
possible that a material liability could result, although the amount
cannot be estimated.
8. CAPITAL TRANSACTIONS
During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company issued
5,855,010 shares of common stock, and 1,300,000 warrants, in exchange for
$2,219,976 cash (net of offering costs), the settlement of $122,505 of
accounts payable and $175,000 of services rendered. 300,000 of the
warrants expire in January 2000 and have exercise prices ranging from
$0.75 through $1.10. 200,000 of the warrants expire in December 2002 and
have an exercise price of $0.75, and 800,000 of the warrants have an
exercise price of $0.25.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company issued
500,000 shares of common stock and 1,500,000 warrants, to an individual
who became a Director on April 1, 1997, in exchange for $125,000 cash.
Each warrant, which expired unexercised on March 5, 1998, entitled the
holder to purchase one share of common stock. for $0.60.
Also during the six months ended June 30, 1997 the Company issued
an additional 1,440,000 shares of common stock in exchange for $360,000
cash. Included in these shares were 500,000 issued for $125,000 to a
Corporation of which one of the Company's directors is also a director.
9. GAIN ON REDUCTION OF LIABILITIES
Management has determined that the possibility is now remote that
the Company will have to pay certain liabilities, recorded in previous
periods at their estimated amounts. Consequently these liabilities,
totalling $282,965 have been removed from the balance sheet and pretax
income for the six months ended June 30, 1998 has been credited for this
amount. The related income tax expense is approximately $121,700 and is
included in income tax expense.

10. INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS
During the six months ended June 30, 1998 3,333 of the employee
stock options outstanding were forfeited. There was no other option
activity. Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair
value at the grant date for its stock options, the Company's net income
would have decreased to the amounts indicated below:

11. CONTINGENCIES
On June 21, 1996, a suit was filed against two of the Company's
subsidiaries and other unrelated parties in the amount of $21,000,000
alleging that they are successors to the alleged liability for a default
judgement entered against a former affiliate of the subsidiaries in
April, 1995 for an alleged action taking place in 1988. The subsidiaries
have vigorously defended themselves in this litigation. Management
believes that the claim against the former affiliate lacks merit and
that, in any case, its subsidiaries have no responsibility for the debts
of the former affiliate. Furthermore, management believes that if any
judgement were to be entered against the subsidiaries it would be able
to obtain indemnification from the prior owner of the former affiliate's
business, a major advertising agency. In a recent decision, the court
dismissed plaintiff's claim against the subsidiaries and at the same
time found that the advertising agency may be liable to the plaintiff
pursuant to aforesaid indemnity agreement. The plaintiff and the
advertising agency have submitted arguments to reargue and the Company
believes they intend to appeal in any event. While management believes,
based on the foregoing, that the litigation will not have a material
effect on the Company's financial position, it is at least reasonably
possible that a material liability could result, although the amount
cannot be estimated.
At the time of the May, 1996 acquisition of KG (see Note 1), KG
had a note payable (jointly and severally with a former affiliate that
is now insolvent) to a former parent company in the amount of $225,000.
KG was contesting its liability under this note because of various
claims against the former parent. In accounting for the acquisition, the
Company valued the liability at $40,000 based on a signed settlement
agreement with the former parent's bankruptcy trustee. Subsequent to the
issuance of the 1996 financial statements, the settlement was rejected
by the creditors of the former parent. No efforts have been made by the
former parent's bankruptcy estate to collect this debt, the Company
still intends to assert its counterclaims if the matter is litigated. No
adjustment has been made to the original $40,000 valuation assigned to
the debt. It is, however, at least reasonably possible that the Company
would be required to pay the full $225,000, resulting in a loss of
$185,000.

11. CONTINGENCIES (Continued)
In December, 1997, the Company filed an action seeking damages
for breach of contract and fraudulent inducement of contract, among
other claims, arising out of a venture that the Company entered into,
with the defendants in the action to promote a Latin American boxing
tournament. The Company seeks damages of at least $500,000 plus punitive
damages in the action. Two of the defendants have answered the
complaint, asserting various affirmative defenses and two counterclaims
seeking damages of not less than $250,000. A third defendant has not yet
responded to the complaint. It is not possible to make an assessment of
the probable outcome of this litigation but it is at least reasonably
possible that a material gain or loss could result.
Certain former independent contractors, related to each other,
who performed services for the Company, have expressed a belief that
they have valid claims against the Company amounting to up to $500,000.
It is not known whether these former independent contractors will press
their claims. If they do, management intends to contest each case
vigorously and to file substantial counterclaims.
Other contingencies include an action for an alleged unpaid
bonus of $25,000 and claims for approximately $89,000 arising from a
sporting event managed by KG in early 1996. Management believes that the
claims are not valid and no liabilities have been recorded for these
amounts as management believes that no loss is probable. It is, however,
reasonably possible that the Company will have to pay these claims.

12. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, Disclosures
about Fair Value of Financial Instruments ("SFAS 107") requires entities
to disclose the fair values of financial instruments except when it is
not practicable to do so. Under SFAS 107, it is not practicable to make
this disclosure when the costs of formulating the estimated values
exceed the benefit when considering how meaningful the information would
be to financial statement users.
The Company's financial instruments, and the related amounts
recorded on the balance sheet, to which SFAS 107 would be applied
include the following:
Carrying Amount
-------------------------
June 30,
1998 1997

Asset:
Cash $ 96,675 $ 13,060
Notes receivable - -
Loan receivable - officers
and shareholders 36,300 187,897
Liabilities:
Cash overdrafts 172,105 532,128
Notes payable 190,000 -
As a result of the difficulties presented in the valuation,
because of their related party nature, of the loans receivable from the
officers and shareholders estimating the fair value of these financial
instruments is not considered practicable. The fair values of the cash,
notes receivable, the bank overdrafts and notes payable do not differ
materially from their carrying amounts.
None of the above are derivative financial instruments and none
are held for trading purposes.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
The consolidated financial statements provided in this six month
report for the period ended June 30, 1998 include the financial statements of
SeaGull Entertainment for six months, the financial statements of the
Company for six months, and six months of the Tarzan Joint Venture as an
equity investment. These periods of reporting reflect various months of full
ownership or partial ownership in the current fiscal year and are consistent
with the reporting method utilized for the prior fiscal year. The comparative
results reported for the six months ended June 30, 1998 include the
financial statements of SeaGull for six months, the financial statements of
the Company for six months, the combined financial statements of KSG for
six months and three months of the Joint Venture as an equity investment.
Reference is made to Note 2 of the Company's Consolidated Financial
Statements for a discussion of significant accounting policies, including
revenue recognition.
Forward Looking Statements
The following statements and certain other statements contained in
this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB are based on current expectations. Such
statements are forward looking statements that involve a number of risks and
uncertainties. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
include the following (i) general economic conditions, (ii) competitive market
influences, (iii) audience appeal and critical reviews of its television
programs, (iv) the ability to identify, acquire the rights to, and to
develop quality properties, and (v) and ability to obtain financing.
Results of Operations
Net revenues consist of total billings (less any agency fees and
media costs) and accruals for earned fees. Net revenues for the Second Quarter
of 1998 were $106,947 compared with net revenue of $492,850 for the Second
Quarter of 1997.
For the Six Month Period Ended June 30, 1998 Net Revenues were
$1,134,581 compared with $1,709,431 in the comparable period in the prior year.
For the six month period ended June 30, 1998 Net Revenues were $1,134,581
compared with 1,709,481 in the comparable period in the prior year.
Amortization of program costs (costs to produce, market and
distribute a broadcast or film property) was $392,512 in the First Six Months of
1998 compared to no amortization in 1997. This increase was due to the Company's
completing and delivering the movie "Merlin, The Magic Begins" in the First
Quarter of 1998.
-16-
<PAGE>
Other direct project costs include costs necessary to create, market
and manage a sporting event, costs relating to the sale of goods by the Direct
Marketing Division and costs related to film production work on a contract
basis. Direct project costs decreased by $431,684 to $32,231 for the first six
months of 1998 from $463,865 for the comparable period in 1997. The decrease
in these costs were due to the sale of KS&E in 1997.
Gross profit decreased by $268,704, to $87,412 for the Second Quarter
of 1998 from $350,116 for the Second Quarter of 1997. Gross Profit for the six
month period decreased $535,728 to $709,838 in 1998 as compared to $1,245,566
in 1997.
Salaries and benefits decreased by $7,448 to $281,744 in the Second
Quarter of 1998 compared to $289,192 for the Second Quarter of 1997. Salaries
and Benefits for the six month period decreased $494,230 to $542,915 in 1998 as
compared to $1,037,145 in 1997. General and administrative expenses increased by
$448,992 to $809,705 in the Second Quarter of 1998 from $360,713 for the
comparable period in 1997. General and administrative expenses for the six month
period increased $400,780 to $1,104,089 in 1998 as compared to $703,309 in 1997.
The decreases in salaries and benefits are due substantially to the reduction in
personnel resulting from the KS&E Sale. The increases in general and
administrative expenses were principally the result of costs related to the
companies efforts to raise additional equity capital.
Amortization of goodwill decreased by $14,128 to $11,389 in the Second
Quarter of 1998 from $25,517 for the comparable period in 1997. Amortization of
Goodwill for the six month period decreased $45,735 to $22,778 in 1998 as
compared to $68,513 in 1997. These decreases reflect the allocation of a
significant portion of goodwill related to the KS&E Sale in prior periods.
Losses from operations (before equity in income of joint venture
increased by $597,872 from a loss of $441,554 in the Second Quarter of 1997 to a
loss of $1,021,426 for the Second Quarter of 1998. Losses from operations for
the six month period increased $61,983 to $959,944 in 1998 from $897,761 in
1997.
The Company did not receive any equity in the income of its joint
ventures for the first six months of 1998 as compared with $423,218 of equity in
the losses of its joint ventures in the First Quarter of 1997. It did not
receive any equity in the increase for the six month period as compared to
$444,482 received in 1997. The Joint Venture's only revenue producing project to
date has been "Tarzan: The Epic Adventures" which earned most of its revenues in
1996 and 1997. Management's estimate of the ultimate revenues from "Tarzan: The
Epic Adventures" have been revised downward.
Income before income taxes decreased by $2,561,095 to a loss of
$1,021,426 in the Second Quarter of 1998 from a profit of $1,539,669 in 1997.
Income before taxes for the six month period decreased by $2,627,941 to a loss
of $676,979 in 1998 from a profit of $1,950,962 in 1997.
The provision for income tax expense was a credit of $406,300 in the
Second Quarter of 1998 as compared to an expense of $1,248,691 in the Second
Quarter of 1997. The provision for Income Tax Expense for the six month period
was a credit of $254,835 for 1998 as compared to a expense of $1,441,891 in
1997. The income tax expense for 1998 does not bear the expected relationship
between pretax income and the federal corporate tax rate of 34% because of (a)
the effect of state and local income taxes and (b) the amortization of goodwill
and certain other expenses are not deductible for income tax purposes.
-17-
<PAGE>
The Company's net loss amounted to $615,126, or .02 per share, for
the Second Quarter of 1998, as compared to net income of $294,970, or $0.01 per
share, for the same quarter in 1997. The Company's Net Loss for the six months
of 1998 was $422,144 as compared to Net Income of $509,071 in 1997.
Net Operating Loss Carryforwards
At December 31, 1997 net operating losses ("NOLs") of the Company
amounted to approximately $121,000 for federal income tax purposes. The NOLs
are not available for state income tax purposes. The NOLs begin to expire
starting in 2011. The Company's subsidiaries file separate income tax returns
in various states and localities. The losses of one subsidiary cannot be used
to offset the losses of another subsidiary for state purposes. Certain of the
Company's subsidiaries have substantial NOLs available for state and local
income tax purposes. In addition, one of the Company's subsidiaries has
approximately $175,000 of NOLs that can only be used to offset future taxable
income (for federal and certain state purposes) of the specific subsidiary to
which they pertain. These NOLs are further limited by the operation of Section
382 of the Internal Revenue Code. The subsidiary is only allowed to use a
maximum of approximately $27,000 of these carryforwards each year.
For the six months ended June 30, 1998 the Company generated
approximatily $633,000 in taxable losses which can be used to offset future
taxable income. The benefits of these losses have been recognized in the
financial statements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash used in operating activities was $1,865,098 in the First
Quarter of 1998 compared with $1,495,719 provided by operating activities in the
First Quarter of 1997. The increase in cash used operating activities was
primarily the result of the reduction of deferred income, Accounts Payable and
Accrued Liabilities.
Net cash used by investing activities in 1998 was $665,332 compared
to the use of net cash in investing activities of $1,703,408 in 1997. This
change was primarily due to the decrease in expenditures for program costs.
Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to $2,374,845 for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to $66,743 provided by financing
activities for the six months ended June 30, 1997. The increase in cash provided
by financing activities was primarily the result of an increase in the receipt
of cash for equity transactions in 1998, and the lack of the large note
repayments that took place in 1997.
As of June 30, 1998, the Company had cash of $96,675 compared with
$13,060 as of June 30, 1997. Operating activities used a net cash outflow of
$1,785,229. The principle source of cash during the First six months of 1998 was
raised through the sale of equity securities in the amount of $2,219,976. These
amounts were used to substantially reduce the companies liabilities.
During the First six months of 1998, the Company received $100,000 cash
from its 50% participation in the Joint Venture that produced and distributed
the first season of "Tarzan: The Epic Adventures." The lack of liquidity of the
Company's investment resulted principally from the obligations of the Joint
Venture to its lender to subordinate payments to others, including the equity
partners of the Joint Venture, until the loan was repaid in full. Although
repayment of the production loan was completed in the third quarter, the Joint
Venture is completing repayment of obligations to vendors in South Africa where
the episodes were filmed. Additionally, obligations to launch the second season
of "Tarzan",
-18-
<PAGE>
which consists of previous half-hour shows made into one-hour shows resulting
in no additional production costs, required that receipts be reinvested in the
Joint Venture, rather than distributed to the equity partners. Additionally,
the Joint Venture's assets consist principally of (i) accounts receivable, are
generally not currently due, and (ii) capitalized program costs, which are
supported by future anticipated income.
The launch of "Hollywood Discoveries" and "Boxcino" and the
production of "Merlin: The Magic Begins" required significant Company
investments while proceeds from operations were negligible. The "Boxcino"
matches were in Costa Rica, Miami and Baton Rouge and approximately $1,000,000
in costs included the logistics of flying Latin American fighters to a single
location and preparing multiple bouts for broadcast.
Development, production, and broadcast costs of "Hollywood
Discoveries" required a total investment of approximately $1,300,000 through
December 31, 1997. "Hollywood Discoveries" program met with moderate success
in the United States and as a result advertising and direct sale of products
to viewers was below expectations.
The Company anticipates that "Hollywood Discoveries," and "Boxcino"
will not generate profits until late in 1998 and 1999.
Production of "Merlin: The Magic Begins" has required an investment
of approximately $1,000,000 through December 31, 1997. The two hour movie was
delivered in March 1998, at which point license fees from "Merlin: The Magic
Begins" began to be received. At the same time, a portion of the capitalized
costs have been recognized as expenses.
Management believes that as additional entertainment properties are
released to the market, cash flows from these properties will improve the
overall Company cash situation significantly. Although each new project going
into production will require additional financial resources, management
expects that financing from venture partners and funding from sponsorships and
pre-sales of programming will provide a significant portion of these needs
At June 30, 1998, the Company had working capital of $2,169,594 as
compared to a working capital deficit of $1,703,370 at June 30, 1997.
As a result of the operating and programming requirements, management
is continuing to explore initiatives to ensure adequate interim cash
resources. The Company is seeking to obtain necessary funding from (a) equity
financing; (b) arrangements for profit participation in individual projects
and (c) marketing or advertising tie-ins to programs and is exploring other
joint venture relationships that will share the burden of program investment.
Inflation
The Company believes that the relatively moderate rates of inflation
in recent years have not
-19-
<PAGE>
had a significant impact on its net revenues or its profitability.

per share calculation. A calculation of earnings per share is performed as
if the necessary earnings levels had been achieved and the per share price
for determination of the number of additional shares to be issued was the
price at period end. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, this
calculation determined that the effect would be anti-dilutive. As a result
it was not used in the earnings per share calculation.
