SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - December 11, 2007) - SendMe Mobile, the premier mobile media
company, and Corbis (www.corbis.com), a creative resource for advertising,
marketing and media professionals, today announced that they are partnering
to bring the red carpet to mobile phones users. A first-of-its-kind
offering for consumers, the relationship will provide SendMeMobile.com
members with access to images from the Corbis Entertainment collection.
SendMeMobile.com members now get exclusive front-row access to images shot
by celebrity photographers -- from A-list stars at Hollywood's most
high-profile events to emerging talent from top rated television shows and
film. This collection of celebrity and artist photographs from major events
is shot by celebrity photographers, including world-renowned Frank Trapper.
Trapper, who just published his book "Red Carpet, 20 Years of Fame and
Fashion," is the first photographer to be part of this new program. The
broader Corbis mobile library will also be available through
SendMeMobile.com with a wide range of premium made-for-mobile photos.
"We're always looking for new ways to extend the reach of our collection
through new media to the important youth market," said Dave Reeder, vice
president, Rights Services & Mobile, Corbis. "Personalization is the name
of the game for mobile, and our imagery helps people create their own
stories. SendMeMobile.com is a good fit for reaching this rapidly growing
market of mobile users."
"The hallmark of SendMe Mobile content is quality and we're proud to be the
first to add these premium images from the Corbis Entertainment
collection," said Russell Klein, co-founder and CEO of SendMe. "Our members
expect nothing but the best creations for mobile entertainment, and Corbis
allows us to bring this to life with its award-winning, comprehensive
library of premier celebrity event photographs."
