Fox Combines Three Current Websites - FoxNow.com Product Catalog, FoxFast.com Marketing Support, and Fox Screening.com Video Resource - Into One Powerful Comprehensive Site That Will Also Serve As The Destination To Download Digital Broadcast Files.Los Angeles, May 1, 2009 - On the eve of the Los Angeles Screenings, Twentieth Century Fox Television Distribution, the exclusive international distributor for all FOX produced or acquired programming, is launching an all-new expanded www.FoxFast.com website May 4, 2009 replacing its current FoxFast.com marketing support website. The announcement was made today by Mark Kaner, President, Twentieth Century Fox Television Distribution.
This new powerful tool will support Fox's international broadcast clients by building on the success of the original FoxFast.com launched in 1999, which established Fox as the first studio to move the worldwide distribution of marketing and publicity support materials to the internet. The new FoxFast.com combines all areas of client support - researching the vast Fox film and TV series catalogs, finding and downloading marketing and publicity assets for a broadcaster's licensed titles, and viewing product and promo video - all into one easy-to-use website. Advanced search and user preference features allow the broadcaster to customize the site to meet their particular use and needs.
"We've continually grown our use of the internet and technology to provide immediate and comprehensive support for our clients," noted Kaner. "First came FoxFast, then FoxNow, and most recently our Fox Screening Room. With this new FoxFast, we've created what we call the 'one front door' - one comprehensive place that takes advantage of the latest technology and taps into all resources of Twentieth Century Fox to give our clients as much as we can, as fast as we can. And this site now becomes our portal to deliver digital broadcast files as we're quickly transitioning from physical tape delivery to digital delivery for both TV series and feature film."
The "FoxFast" name was retained for the new 3-in-1 website due to its strong awareness and equity with FTVD's client base. Starting May 4th, FTVD clients who go to FoxNow.com, Fox Screening.com, or FoxFast.com will be automatically re-directed to the new FoxFast.com where they will be prompted to set up one password (replacing several that were needed before), and have the ability to view a "Take A Tour" video that illustrates the new features of the website. The downloading of broadcast quality digital files via the website is rolling out now for current season television series, with current and library feature film digital delivery coming in 2010.
