New Way to Find Images
imense are delighted to announce the launch of imense Picturedesk, a simple to use, but highly efficient search portal for picture professionals with imagery from over 30 leading international collections.
imense Picturedesk search uses visual analysis of imagery to improve the veracity of search results across a wide reaching collection of niche and general picture agency material. This means that picture buyers will be able search for and locate the right image more quickly and efficiently than other websites that rely solely on image keywords to return relevant search results.
The simple registration form allows users to utilise many advanced search functions, request hi-res images from imense’s contributing affiliates and use all the normal lightbox functions.
The collection of both RF and RM images currently stands at over 2.5 million and is growing quickly with new affiliate collections being added weekly.
imense Picturedesk offers a not only a compelling combination of high quality general stock and archive material, but also a wide range of niche specialist collections ranging from architecture through to medical, food, reportage, natural history, travel, and celebrity material.
imense’s aim is to continue to diversify its visual offering by representing the best affiliates in all subject areas, and to ensure that content choice is relevant to both editorial and commercial clients.
Through the online referral system, imense also improves communication between the client and the affiliate agencies, often meaning a better deal for picture buyers, and a better deal for affiliate agencies and their photographers.
Once a client requests a hi-res image through the imense portal, the affiliate agency deals directly with the client to negotiate rights, pricing and then license the image. Clients benefit by having a better relationship directly with the affiliate and can capitalise on their expertise, image knowledge and tailored customer service.
www.imense.com delivers improved search results on collections clients may already be working with, but also on collections that don’t have such a wide market presence. This means smaller collections get better visibility in the online marketplace, and image choice for clients improves.
To start searching and gaining the benefit of our advanced search technology, please visit www.imense.com to register.
