IRVINE, Calif., Nov 16, 2007 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- "Hollywood and Broadway might be dark, but people can still be entertained," advised photo industry entrepreneur, Mitch Goldstone.
"People should revisit their own, long overlooked shoeboxes of snapshots, have it digitally preserved and be entertained while they share and watch their own pictures during the Thanksgiving holiday weekend and beyond," said Goldstone, ScanMyPhotos.com president and CEO.
The entertainment industry strikes have impacted many, but none more than those walking the picket lines. The shutdown is causing widespread hardship. To help show support from the business community, ScanMyPhotos.com has been providing 250 free photo scans to all members of the Writers Guild of America (WGA) and International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE). But, not to the corporate chieftains and industry tycoons who reap much of the revenues gained by those behind-the-scenes workers.
To take advantage of the 250 free photo scans, members of the WGA and IATSE are visiting ScanMyPhotos.com. The ordering information includes a link for accredited members to have 250 photographs digitally scanned and mailed back without charge.
Today's digital world has triggered a revolution of change in the entertainment industry and beyond. From the film and television writers' walkout in Hollywood, to the dark marquees on Broadway, technology is creating havoc, but also opportunities. For the photo imaging industry, consumers can now have generations of photo snapshots digitally preserved in minutes at a cost much less than even the balcony seats at an off-Broadway play.
ScanMyPhotos.com helps people watch their own generations of family photographs with its super-fast ecommerce photo scanning and retail digital imaging business. They scan 1,000 pictures in ten-minutes for just $49.95, and have prepaid fill-the-box service - the carefree way to have more than 1,600+ 4x6" snapshots scanned and mailed back the same day for just $124.95.
ScanMyPhotos.com and its parent company, 30 Minute Photos Etc., are longtime advocates for supporting important causes. After "9/11," the company brought 5,000 people to the Big Apple to support commerce and the city's recovery (EPICCUSA.com). More recently, they are known as the first lead plaintiff in the merchant interchange antitrust battle against Visa, MasterCard and leading member banks, including Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup, Wachovia and others. A daily website with news and commentary updates on the antitrust litigation is co-edited by 30 Minute Photos Etc. cofounders, Carl Berman and Mitch Goldstone. (WayTooHigh.com)
