Zoo signs deal with film studio

SHEFFIELD-based Zoo Digital, the provider of software services for the entertainment industry, today announced that a second major film studio had adopted its media collaboration platform.

The platform allows content from a variety of media to be used across multiple formats, from printed materials to online content and optical discs.

Stuart Green, the company's chief executive, commented: "We're particularly excited about working with another of the major brands in entertainment and providing a very broad solution that spans most of its formats.

"In the past, clients have licensed specific software products, but this client intends to use our media collaboration platform in the most comprehensive way across its entire home entertainment business. This is a further validation of Zoo's products and business model."

The adoption by one of Hollywood's largest studios, which cannot be named for contractual reasons, represents a "very significant development", Zoo said.

Mr Green added "Everyone is trying to standardise methods of managing content across multiple media and languages. We're at the forefront in this area and are now working with some of the biggest names in entertainment to establish these standards which we believe will be very widely adopted."
