As of this date, ZDF.archive distributes the library of the UK's Skyworks in the German-language territories. Skyworks produces high-end aerial footage in HDTV quality and is one of the largest archives of its kind in the world. Currently available are more than 300 hours of HD material comprising aerial shots of exceptional beauty and quality from France, Great Britain, Italy, Ireland, Germany, the Benelux countries and Denmark, as well as moving pictures of flights over the Alps. Thanks to a 360-degree gyrostabilised camera attached under a helicopter, and to a unique production method, breathtaking images are produced in dazzling quality from a bird's-eye perspective. Skyworks produces for such prestigious clients as BBC, ITV, The Smithsonian Network, Granada and Discovery.
Fred Burcksen, Vice President Distribution, Merchandising and Investments, says: 'I am extremely delighted with this new and pace-setting cooperation. More and more broadcasters today are using High Definition, and the same applies to the world of film and advertising. HD is a practical, flexible and cost-effective way to maintain a quality that is comparable to that of 35 mm film. Furthermore, it can be seamlessly converted into the 35 mm format. Skyworks' spectacular films offer ZDF.archive's clients a practically limitless reservoir of ideas and applications.'
Massimo Moretto, Archive Manager at Skyworks, says: 'Representation partnerships are a big part of our business plan. We are looking forward towards working with ZDF Enterprises, with its prestige and knowledge of the markets in the German-speaking European territories.'
