EMPHASIS VIDEO ENTERTAINMENT GROWS WITH APPOINTMENT OF SHONA MURRAY

HONG KONG, 13 June 07 – Emphasis Video Entertainment, the inflight movies and TV programmes distribution and postproduction division of Emphasis Media Limited, welcomes Shona Murray as the company’s new Manager of Acquisitions and Distribution.

Ms Murray joins Emphasis having recently completed postgraduate studies at the prestigious UCLA Film School. 

A film industry veteran of more than 20 years, Ms Murray entered the profession at BBC Television, London. After building a successful career in drama, she moved into a producing role within the advertising and inflight industries, working for Hong Kong-based MNC/Foote, Cone & Belding and Emphasis Custom Media (prior to the company’s acquisition and
subsequent renaming by its parent company PubliGroupe). Relocating to the US, she joined Columbia Pictures and 20th Century Fox where she had the opportunity to develop her skills on high profile film and television productions.

Shona comes to the Acquisition & Distribution team to extend the EVE library beyond Asia. While exploring the world of European content, Shona's remit is also to expand our English-language short feature content.

“While we continue our focus on Asian content, we appreciate the airlines’ need for more varied and original inflight content in other languages as well,’ explained Monica Woo, Managing Director of Emphasis Media Limited. ‘With Shona on our team, EVE will continue to take the lead in providing a more comprehensive range of products on offer for our evergrowing portfolio of clients.”
