CJ ENTERTAINMENT, FOCUS FEATURES, FORTISSIMO FILMS, GAUMONT, NEW ZEALAND FILM, SHOWEAST, AND SHOCHIKU JOIN IMAGE.NET'S GLOBAL SALES AGENCY SERVICE
Cannes, France-(May 13, 2005)image.net, the world's leader in the digital distribution of publicity and marketing materials for the entertainment industry, is excited to announce a number of new clients of their all-digital sales agency service. CJ Entertainment, Focus Features, Fortissimo Films, New Zealand Film, Gaumont, Shochiku and ShowEast have all signed on to use the image.net marketing service. Says ShowEast Head of International Business, Michelle Son, "image.net is giving the service that we've been looking for. It's fast, efficient and easy to use with great customer service."
The digital environment has revolutionized the way film companies promote and deliver their marketing and publicity material. No longer are they required to send CDs by mail or special delivery. image.net's online service allows buyers to access images, poster art, and trailers (in fact, all marketing materials) via secure logins and passwords at their computers online. "In the past we delivered all of our press and marketing materials to our buyers on CD by courier," says Head of International Business Division for Shochiku, Masaki Koga, "Now, with image.net, we can give access to these materials faster, and our clients do not have to wait for the courier to arrive before starting their publicity campaign."
Not only can clients deliver their marketing materials at the touch of a button, but they can promote their new films to prospective buyers anywhere around the world, quickly and securely. Says Catherine Park, VP International Business, CJ Entertainment, "We believe in providing the best possible service to our buyers and in the space of material fulfillment, our partner image.net helps us do just that. Every time our distributors buy a film from us we are able to give them access to a full range of materials immediately, on a site they can navigate in their choice of 17 languages."
The image.net marketing service is also supporting sales agents at the post-production stage, allowing access to preliminary marketing and publicity kits for approvals. Producers, actors, designers and sales agency staff can now access, view, and download materials from wherever they are in the world at a moment's notice. "We had a need for approvals from the director, producer, and lead actor who are each based in cities around the world," says Kathleen Drumm, Sales and Marketing Manager for New Zealand Film, "and the image.net Sales Agency Service means we can do this cost-effectively and within deadline. That presents a real benefit to us."
image.net's Sales Agency Service is led by Stephen Jenner, Manager, Asia Pacific, and Aidan Sullivan, Founder and Executive VP Sales, North America.
