[June 13, 2006] Emdigo to Acquire Exclusive Rights to Deploy 'Supergirl' Based 3D Animation Content Tweet SAN JOSE, Calif. and BEIJING, June 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Emdigo(R) Inc., a leading provider of advanced 3D content and production technology for the wireless industry announced today that it has acquired the exclusive rights to develop and deploy 3D graphics based animation content based on "Supergirl", China's hugely successful, "American Idol(TM)" like television show. "We are very excited about the opportunity to produce and distribute Supergirl based content," says Christopher Tanner, CEO of Emdigo. "Supergirl has become a Chinese phenomenon much like what American Idol is to us in the United States. The contestant's weekly television appearances will allow us to showcase the true potential of our content solution. Emdigo Supergirl content is not just something that consumers download and forget; it encourages them to frequently update their idols' looks and moves with cool new animations or outfits to reflect their most recent TV performance. The result is a completely new mobile personalization experience unlike anything else available today. The 2006 Supergirl contest will be broadcasted on China's public television from June '06 until its winner is selected in September '06. "When we had our first look at Emdigo's content, we instantly knew it could provide us with an exciting new venue to bring Supergirl to China's vast mobile audience," says Sun Jun, head of licensing at Sunshine Interactive. "We usually license the rights to Supergirl based games, SMS and wallpaper to the major players in the mobile industry, but the visual appeal and sophistication of Emdigo's animated 3D content combined with its unbelievably small download size convinced us that there should be an extra category for 3D graphics based animation content. In that new category, Emdigo is the only and obvious choice.
