NEW YORK, NY - January 27, 2009
Today, Fotolia (http://www.fotolia.com) one of the world's leading sources for legal, low-cost imagery announces a call for high quality, user-generated video submissions, in preparation for the launch of its stock video offering, which will supplement its current library by licensing royalty-free video clips at microstock prices.

"Fotolia has been, for years, one of the world's most trusted sources
for high-quality, low-priced, legal imagery and illustration,"
explains Oleg Tscheltzoff, co-founder and president of Fotolia, LLC.
"In response to an overwhelming demand, Fotolia is announcing a call
for video submissions. We are seeking thousands of videographers from
around the world who would like to sell their footage and make money
through their videography passion."

Fotolia is looking for a wide variety of content submissions - from
animation and stop motion to digital film and traditional video.
Submissions should be 320 X 240 to 1920 X 1080, 24 - 30 frames per
second, and 5 - 60 seconds long. Beginning in mid-February, Fotolia
will begin licensing broadcast-quality footage, in a variety of
digital formats, including HD video, for as little as £10.
