Exciting National Tour will Continue with Stop at MTV Store in Times Square

NEW YORK, Nov. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Yoostar Entertainment Group today announced the extension of its Yoostar Casting Agency Tour, adding an additional 11 stops to the initial nine-city, 23-stop journey which has reached thousands at college campuses and malls across the nation. During these tour stops, Yoostar brings its revolutionary system on the road and allow members of the public to compete to be the next big Yoostar superstar. User performances are then uploaded to the Yoostar Web site and Facebook for the public and judges to view. Actor Jamie Kennedy, best known for his roles in the "Scream" films and the television series "The Jamie Kennedy Experiment," serves as the lead agent for the tour and will help select winners. The grand prize is a walk-on role in a 2010 Lions Gate film production, and other prizes include Yoostar systems and gifted products from sponsors Coke Zero and L'Oreal Paris.

To kick-off the extension, Yoostar will appear in the MTV Store in Times Square, starting on Wednesday, November 18th. An additional 10 stops are planned in December at mall locations in Chicago, Cincinnati, and the New York/New Jersey metro area.

"The Yoostar Casting Agency Tour is a unique opportunity for people all across the country to enjoy Yoostar and have the chance to showcase their acting skills to the world," said Patrick Bousquet-Chavanne, President and CEO, Yoostar Entertainment Group. "We have seen thousands of young people come through already and are thrilled to extend the opportunity to help introduce the world to great, undiscovered comedic and dramatic talent with the only technology that allows you to place yourself inside real films and act alongside real actors."

The Yoostar entertainment system gives consumers the first opportunity to interact with green screen technology without having to spend thousands of dollars in a professional studio. The Yoostar entertainment system allows you to film yourself right into famous movie scenes, where you can perform with, or replace, the original actors. Users can follow the script or deliver their own interpretation of the movie, then upload their performances to www.yoostar.com and share them on their favorite social networking sites.

The Yoostar system includes all the tools to turn any room into a movie studio--a studio-grade web cam with built-in dual microphones and remote control, portable green screen, professional stand and PC-compatible Yoostar software. A Mac-compatible version of the software will be released later this year.

The system comes with an assortment of 14 scenes featuring multiple roles, with a constantly updated library of film and television scenes for purchase and download at www.yoostar.com. Some sample films include "The Godfather," "The Blues Brothers," "Some Like it Hot," "Field of Dreams," "Rocky," "Beverly Hills Cop," and "Animal House." The Yoostar library will also feature scenes from "Sesame Street" and the NBA.

Yoostar retails for $169.95 and is available at Best Buy, Bloomingdales, Amazon.com and on Yoostar.com, with additional scenes available for $.99-$3.99 per clip on Yoostar.com.
