TripTelevision Increases Content Acquisition Through Strategic Alliance with Re:Source Media
TripTelevision announced a significant milestone in the development of their Travel Content Store with the addition of Re:Source Media’s extensive archive of High Definition Video footage covering over 65 countries.
TripTelevision continues to lead the way for the travel industry to leverage professional, high definition video content with award winning production, cost effective distribution and now the world’s most comprehensive destination video licensing.
The companies will share resources to produce an extensive archive of short format videos that feature popular destinations such as Hawaii, New York and Mexico in North America to Paris, London and the Mediterranean in Europe from Resource Media’s existing footage and with new original content production.
“Re:Source Media’s experience and reputation in original television production for clients such as CNBC World is a great addition to our expertise in the travel space. The alliance takes a giant leap forward in solving the challenges for travel providers and publishers who are seeking a single source for content to minimize integration cost while achieving effective critical mass. Not only does the partnership make sense in terms of business, Re:Source Media also shares our vision and approach to operations.” said Kulin Strimbu, President & CEO of TripTelevision. “Combining forces also creates a very unique opportunity for film and television programming and extends our immediate production reach through hubs in Europe and Asia.”
In addition to the strategic alliance for content, the companies will also exchange minority equity positions to further strengthen the relationship.
“We were immediately impressed by TripTelevision’s vision for video in the travel industry and recognized the value of a partnership. The synergies between our companies will help us both grow and will also help us leverage our production capabilities specifically for the travel industry” stated Kevin Fox, Present & CEO, Re:Source Media. “The partnership works in so many ways. We are looking forward to working with TripTelevision to create the largest archive of travel video content within the Travel Content Store.”
