Venus Swimwear Using Scene7 to Reduce Print Photography Costs
Creates high-impact 48 foot long billboard with Scene7 rendered imagery
Novato, CA Scene7, the leading provider of dynamic
imaging software, today announced that Venus Swimwear has licensed
Scene7's Infinite Imaging™ Platform to provide enhanced imagery
for their printed materials and catalogs. Venus Swimwear, the world's
largest direct marketer of junior swimwear, is using the technology
to enhance and re-purpose on-model, on-location photography —
significantly reducing the risks and costs associated with expensive
photo shoots. "Scene7 offers the perfect technology for us
to avoid high photography costs in creating our print publications.
We were able to save over 75% of our photography costs by generating
our billboard photography using Scene7. Now, we have improved flexibility
in matching up the right product image with the absolutely best photo
presentation," said Daryle Scott, CEO for Venus Swimwear. "Scene7
meets our high quality standards for both print and web imagery."
Scene7's Infinite Imaging Platform enables companies to cost-effectively
create, manage and publish dynamic images, helping customers increase
sales and reduce costs associated with digital imaging. Scene7 clients
can easily computer generate any digital image they need — in
absolute photo quality — for uses including websites, catalogs,
partner extranets and marketing collateral.
Venus Swimwear is the first company to utilize Scene7's Infinite Imaging
Platform for large billboard displays in the print arena. "We're
excited to partner with the nation's leading junior swimwear direct
marketer. Venus Swimwear is using our platform for very innovative
print applications which significantly reduce their internal photography
costs," states Doug Mack, CEO of Scene7. "And, later this year,
Venus plans to launch dynamic imaging on their website to drive sales
while broadening their use of Scene7's platform across multiple channels."
In addition to the planned enhancements to their website, www.venusswimwear.com,
Venus would like to utilize dynamic imaging for personalized campaigns
both in print and online. About Venus Swimwear
