Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ
Library Sales, a division of Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Worldwide, and footage house Index
Stock Shots have signed an agreement for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Library Sales to represent
Index's core collection of motion cinematography.
Under
the agreement, Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Library Sales is granted non-exclusive rights
to distribute and license Index footage on a worldwide basis.
London-based
Index Stock Shots offers a wide range of super 35mm footage shot
specifically for the stock footage market. It includes shots of
commercial aircraft, in the air and operating at major international
airports, together with shots of many of the world's major cities
and locations - from New York, Las Vegas and San Francisco to London,
Paris, Singapore and Hong Kong.
Index
Stock Shots material has appeared in a number of television commercials
on both sides of the Atlantic and the Far East. Stormy seas footage
featured in European ads for car manufacturer Peugeot, as well as
for financial services company Scottish Widows. In North America,
the night skyline of Boston was included in ads for AOL and, in
Japan, Nissan used Index 'air-to-air' footage of clouds.
In
addition, Index Stock Shots is a prolific supplier of footage for
feature films including Crocodile Dundee II, Johnny English, Sweet
Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Alabama, Daredevil and trailers for Pirates of the Caribbean.
Index Founder and Chairman Gerry Weinbren said: "We believe
this new relationship will be an important step forward in the development
of Index, and our mission to make our footage available to more
and more of the world's television producers, creatives and movie
makers."

Library Sales Managing Director, Simon Gibbs, added: "Index's
collection complements the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's broadcast archive and adds greatly
to the range of material available from Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Library Sales."
