PunchStock to offer rights managed licensing with 25 new RM suppliers
PunchStock, a well known channel distributor of royalty free imagery has announced the addition of rights managed imagery to its on-line offerings. In addition to its comprehensive selection of RF imagery, the Madison, Wisconsin, based company now represents on its web-site the collections of 25 rights managed image suppliers including UpperCut Images, a rights managed collection produced in-house by Punchstock itself.
We have reported in this space about the increasing numbers of new RF production companies established in recent years. PunchStock's founder and owner, Miles Gerstein took a step in the exact opposite direction when he founded Uppercut Images last year. The addition of RM material to an established RF web-site represents a reversal of the common trend of RM companies adding RF to their web-sites.
PunchStock clients will now have the option to find and price rights-managed images on the company's web-site with a special rights managed search tab and an online pricing calculator.
