Digital Vision Information Release
COME
ALIVE WITH VERVE
Energy…Passion…Spirit, with
a twist!
Feel free to swerve into Verve - 29
stunning new royalty free image titles
from Digital Vision. Commissioned
to inject a creative twist to any
campaign, this collection is wild
and funky, passionate and funny, clever
and energetic, cool and very, very
hot. From business suits to bathing
suits, stolen kisses to stationery
cupboards, Verve challenges the ordinary
with these vibrant images.
Each exciting Verve CD title comprises
50-100 images, every one taking its
inspiration from the naturally stimulating
and unusual world around us. Shot
on location in countries including
Mexico, South Africa, USA, Italy,
UK and Argentina, Verve captures the
essence of deserts and waterfalls,
beaches and glaciers, rainforests
and city streets. It offers a fresh
perspective on people and places,
animals and objects. It confronts
the elements and provokes the emotions.
Known throughout the industry for
its innovative ventures, Digital Vision
dared 28 photographers to flirt with
everyday themes such as business,
family, animals and travel. The brief
was to take these themes and turn
them inside out and stretch our perceptions
to the limit. That is precisely what
each artist did.
Art Director of Verve, Maria Teijeiro,
said "This time we have gone
a long, long way to find all the different
elements that make this collection
outstanding. We've gone to the streets
of London to cast true 'funky' models,
we used people's pets, including some
rather unusual ones, we used some
of the best ballet dancers in the
UK and we've gone to the 'future'
for the most surreal images yet.'
Across its 29 titles, Verve offers
everything from humour and satire
to technical perfection and true artistry.
One of the most striking titles within
the business portfolio is Max Oppenheim's
Office Detail, which somehow succeeds
in giving the obligatory stationery
cupboard an artistic form. In complete
contrast, the dancers of the English
National Ballet create awe inspiring
images, portraying precision, feeling
and strength in Movement. However,
for those who simply thrive on others'
misfortunes, there is a laugh a minute
in My Pet & I which never quite
establishes exactly who looks like
whom!

You don't exactly leave your personality
at the door when you go to work. This

not your typical Business collection.

Men's World - Bloom Productions
From hangin' with the home boyz,
to hoops with the little ones, this

of all ages and walks of life in a
variety of environments. It also tackles
issues most of us face, like debts,
wrinkles and the battle of the bulge.
Everyday Heroes - Commissioned Series
This collection of 80 images pays
homage all those who make life easier,
safer, and more pleasant -- like the
courier, the builder, the ambulance
driver, the police, and of course,
every child's hero: the fireman.
My Pet & I - Michelangelo Gratton
Do people resemble their pets, or
do pets resemble their people? The
verdict is down to you on this collection
of 70 images of man, woman, fur, feathers
and scales!
Intimacy - Bill Ling
Is intimacy more than just sex? We
think so. This collection of 100 images
captures the laughter of the first
date, giddiness of that first kiss,
the passion of the first night, and
the tenderness of knowing someone
inside out.
Getaway - Anderson Ross

trailer, or camping, these 80 images
capture the essence of the freedom
and excitement of finally getting
away.

the park, or wide-open spaces: you'll
find all these day trips in this collection
of 100 images.
Everyday Health - Commission Series
The health issues that affect us
all, no matter what age, sex, shape

issues from the common cold, and dental
hygiene, to that feeling of why on
earth did I drink that last night.
Cool Down - Serge Krouglikoff
As the temperatures soar, these hot
bodies all have one agenda: to cool
off. 70 sizzling images on one CD,
shot indoors and out, minimal clothing,
lots of water and a cool breeze. Well,
you get the picture…
Airport - James Lauritz
The airport: the excitement of that
upcoming vacation, the shopping, the
waiting, the dragging-your-luggage-for-miles-down-the-concourse,
the confusion, the running for the
gate. It's all captured on in this
collection of 100 images.
Business Space - Rob Melnychuk
Clean lines, stark, bright corridors,
modern architecture, and minimalist
decor and furniture dominate this
collection. In a phrase? Very now.
That's what the 100 images on Business
Space are all about.
Summer Garden - Commissioned Series
Nothing says summer like a barbeque
in the garden with friends and family.
This CD captures all the enjoyment
we get out of that little patch of
green out the back door, from the
good times to the nap times…
Streetwise - Neil Marriott
For this series of 100 images, we
took to the streets in search of real
people, hip people, the trend setters,
the cool people. Tattoos, piercings
and wild hair-dos abound in an urban,
edgy environment.
Remote Access - Javier Pierini
For this collection of 100 images
we travelled the world over in search
of remote locations, then married
them with the most advanced technology.
The result? A series of stunning communication
themed images.
Party - Commissioned Series
It happens in Cancun, Ibiza, Cape
Town, or the Gold Coast. The destination
doesn't really matter. The mandate?
Simply to have a fantastic time, meet
new people and dance up a storm. Party
is 75 images of the beach, the booze
and the babes.
On the Road - Adam Gault
The beauty of owning a car. The freedom.
The independence. The adventure. But
it's not all fun and games. These
100 images give a realistic view of
the other aspects of hitting the road:
like running out of fuel, breaking
down and getting utterly lost.
On Campus - Commissioned Series
University means some great times.
The friendships, the studying, the
lectures, the parties, the studying,
the labs, the studying; then graduation.
What next? Better get a job, honey.
Time to pay back those student loans.
100 educational images on one CD.
New Business - Charlie Edwards
The way we work has changed. There's
less emphasis on wearing a suit, and
more emphasis on bright, open spaces.
This CD of 100 images shows a modern
work place of casual young movers
and shakers.
Movement - Chris Nash

of bodies in motion. Shot in conjunction
with dancers from the English National
Ballet, Movement depicts the human
