Disney Uses Broadband Video Software From Maven Networks to Better 
Reach Consumers Online, Drive Ticket Sales, Reinforce the Disney Brand


BURBANK, Calif., Dec. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Buena Vista Pictures 
Marketing, a unit of the Walt Disney Studios, today announced the 
availability of full- screen, theatrical-quality video content from 
Walt Disney Pictures/Walden Media's "The Chronicles of Narnia: The 
Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe" directly to the PCs and 
video-enabled iPods of movie fans.


Using a broadband video software platform from Maven Networks, Disney 
today launched "The Narnia Full-Screen Experience." The Internet 
channel, available on the film's official website, narnia.com, allows 
broadband consumers to receive trailers, clips, behind-the-scenes 
segments, interviews, and other film content to their laptops or PCs 
in unmatched theatrical quality. For consumers who enjoy "on the go" 
viewing options, the Maven software allows them to receive trailers 
and clips that are automatically downloaded and synchronized directly 
to their video-enabled iPods.


With this initiative, Disney becomes the first film studio to publish 
promotional campaigns to video-enabled iPods. With video consumption 
rapidly on the rise online and through Internet-enabled devices, 
Maven's software allows Disney to deliver and manage its video 
content in a single package, optimally encoded and formatted for 
iPod, PC and TV viewing. Other video solutions only provide video 
optimized for a single device or require content owners to pre-select 
formats and download content independently and multiple times.
