ImageSpan Inc. and TAKKLE, Inc., the social network for high school sports, announced an ongoing partnership whereTAKKLE will tap ImageSpan’s CurbStream, a managed hyperlocal content creation network, to capture video of top high school athletes across the U.S. in various sports.
With ImageSpan’s CurbStream, TAKKLE can gather a range of highly original video content, including field action shots and interviews with high school athletes, allowing it to generate up-to-date, highly social and localized high school sports video with viral advertising potential.
CurbStream provides on-demand access to more than 10,000 local videographers and photographers across the country who are members of the Wedding and Event Videographers Association (WEVA). Based on specifications provided to CurbStream by TAKKLE, these videographers and photographers shoot local high school sports stars during a game and then deliver video clips of athletes in action to TAKKLE via ImageSpan’s easy-to-use online service. The content is immediately rights-cleared and licensable for use by TAKKLE.
