DGP, the London, Soho-based digital post production and new media facility, has signed an exclusive affiliation agreement with interactive authoring tool developer ZOOtech to offer production services based on its DVD authoring system in the UK.

ZOOtech’s software has already proven itself with a number of major studios in Los Angeles. Features range from the automation of the DVD authoring process - previously a very labour intensive function - to the regionalisation of DVD menus and printed materials.

The systems introduce significant efficiencies into the production process, as well as greater flexibility to accommodate changes, whilst at the same time delivering substantial cost savings to the client.

Commenting on the new agreement, Julian Day, Managing Director of DGP (pictured), said “Our marketplace is changing fast. Clients are continually looking for more efficient ways to reduce costs and produce their work more effectively. By collaborating with ZOOtech, we are perfectly positioned to exploit our knowledge and experience of the international DVD market, and pass on the potential savings to our clients. In addition, we will have access to ZOO’s upcoming solutions for reduced production times across other areas of our business which include DVD menu regionalisation and the adaptation of printed and promotional materials.”
