CUSTOMFLIX
AND YESVIDEO PARTNER TO OFFER
LOW-COST VIDEO-TO-DVD PUBLISHING
SOLUTION
Synergy
Enables DVD Transfer and Online
Title Setup for Under
$100
Los Gatos,
CA (October 31, 2002) -
CustomFlix Labs, Inc., an
innovator in on-demand video
publishing, and YesVideo Inc.,
the market leader of
cost-effective videotape-to-DVD
transfers, announced they are
partnering to provide customers
with an affordable solution to
convert videotapes to DVD and
publish them online. By working
with YesVideo, CustomFlix is now
able to offer video enthusiasts,
corporate professionals and other
customers video-to-DVD
conversions for less than one
hundred dollars.
Priced at
$99.99, the new DVD publishing
solution is ideal for those who
want to bring their media to
market without making a large
investment in transfer services.
The package includes a
video-to-DVD transfer by
YesVideo, together with a custom
e-store by CustomFlix (will
readers know what a custom
e-store is?), including
customizable graphics,
descriptive text, and a streaming
trailer to promote a title's
sale. As orders for a title are
received, CustomFlix handles all
duplication (including
customizable full-color
packaging), fulfillment, and
order management for a low
per-disc charge of $11.95 plus
five percent for each copy that
is sold, and producers receive
the balance in a monthly profit
check.
"Never before
has there been an easier or more
inexpensive way to profitably
self-publish video online," said
Dana LoPiccolo-Giles, President
of CustomFlix. "At CustomFlix, we
listen to what our customers
want. In addition to our existing
high-end transfer service, our
users have been asking for a
low-cost tape-to-DVD transfer
option. We're pleased to partner
with YesVideo to meet this need
at a low cost."
"YesVideo is
pleased to partner with
CustomFlix to make on-demand
publishing conveniently available
online," said Bob Wilson, vice
president of sales and marketing
for YesVideo, "This relationship
allows videographers the ability
to simply and affordably publish
their work, whether it be the
next 'Blair Witch Project' or
their daughter's soccer team
highlights."
The new
package includes a video-to-DVD
transfer and a customizable
e-store hosted by CustomFlix for
one year. The DVD, authored by
YesVideo, holds up to two hours
of CBR (what is a CBR?)video, 54
indexed chapter points, bonus
music video clips and an easy to
navigate player menu. A wide
range of tape formats are
accepted, including VHS, SVHS,
VHS-C, Betamax, Beta SP, Hi8,
Digital 8, DVC Pro, DVcam and
miniDV formats.
