YesVideo,
NIHON SOGO TELEVISION CO.,LTD.
Deliver Wedding Videos On DVD
Throughout Japan
SAN JOSE,
Calif. - June 11, 2002 -
YesVideo today announced a
strategic relationship with
NIHON SOGO
TELEVISION CO.,LTD., the
largest wedding videography
company in Japan. Nihon Sogo has
committed to using YesVideo
services to transfer thousands of
wedding videos onto DVD.
Nihon Sogo
shoots wedding videos in two
sections - the ceremony and the
reception. The company uses
contract-based professional
videographers shooting on digital
videotape. The video is then
edited and transferred to DVD
using YesVideo services.
YesVideo
indexes 54 thumbnail images taken
from the wedding video so
customers can skip directly to
the scene they want to view -
without holding down a
fast-forward button. The DVD or
CD arrives in customized
packaging and the cover features
a visual index of the video,
making it easy to select which
training DVD to watch. The
completed DVDs are usually
delivered to customers within
three weeks to a month after the
wedding.
"In 2001,
Nihon Sogo recorded more than
30,000 weddings on video in
Japan," said Sai-Wai Fu, chief
executive officer of YesVideo.
"Their selection of YesVideo to
outsource their video-to-DVD
conversions is a tremendous
validation of our products and
services."
In addition to
the bridal application, Nihon
Sogo has been winning work in
other areas such as creating AIDS
Prevention DVD titles for kiosks
in hospitals, health centers and
the departure lobby at Tokyo's
Narita International Airport.
Based in
Tokyo, Nihon Sogo was founded in
1976 and employs several hundred
people at its 14 branch offices
throughout Japan and in New York
City.
"YesVideo
provides a very high quality
service at a very attractive
price" said
Koichirou
Shimojo, Senior Managing
Director of Nihon Sogo,
"Our agreement with YesVideo will
allow all of our customers to
preserve their precious wedding
memories forever."
YesVideo is
the most convenient, simple and
affordable customized service for
transferring home videos to DVD
and CD. Sai-Wai Fu, a pioneer in
digital video compression
technology, founded the company
in 1999. The company is located
