Programming from Image Entertainment Inc. will be shown for in-flight movies and on merchant sea vessels after inking a deal with Jaguar Distribution Corp. The two-year deal between Chatsworth-based Image and Jaguar, in Studio City, covers short form, theatrical and non-theatrical releases. In-flight viewing has become a major distribution outlet for films and television shows and Jaguar has the connections to bring Image programming to that marketplace, Steve Saltman, senior vice president of worldwide television for Image. “There is strong demand not only for feature films, but for short form content as well, such as music concerts and comedy specials,” Saltman said. Image’s current and classic libraries of feature films, comedy specials and music meets the needs for a culturally broad airborne audience of all ages, said Jaguar President Jeff Klein.
