Getty Says Editorial Footage Will Grow Its Motion Business
In conversations with analysts since its quarterly results were published, Getty Images says "footage will become a much bigger business for us in the future." Getty says editorial footage is simply an extension of the product that it has in editorial still photography. Many Getty photographers have been given video cameras and the Company will continue that policy "so they can capture moving imagery, whether it is celebrities walking the red carpet or something more serious from war zones around the world." Getty says revenues from footage have "not been a great year" but point to it being a transition year for its footage business. It expects double-digit growth in 2008 and beyond.
