acquired PixelWave, a leader in online content development and
entertainment technologies. The acquisition has spurred AtomFilms to make
plans to form "Atom Studios," a next-generation entertainment studio. The
new company will focus on the creation of new original Macromedia Flash and
streaming media animated series and integrating content in both online
advertising and sponsorship opportunities. "PixelWave delivers an important
ingredient towards [AtomFilms] vision of being a broader-based
entertainment company. Our focus has always been to partner with
independent filmmakers and content creators," said Mika Salmi, founder and
CEO of AtomFilms. "The formation of the Atom Studio directly benefits our
independent animators looking to increase the value of their content. There
is overwhelming demand to create online animated content for both consumers
and businesses. PixelWave is leveraging their expertise in technology and
artistic talent to deliver an exciting blend of entertainment." In the
deal, AtomFilms will also obtain PixelWave's original content for online
and offline distribution.
