Video marketplace Stringr on the hunt for local media partner for Australian launch
Freelance journalism crowdsourcing app Stringr is looking for a local media organisation to partner with in order to launch locally. The partnership will provide an exclusivity deal for six months.
Stringr allows videographers to receive freelance jobs from media outlets and offers media outlets access to vision in parts of the country they may not have teams in.
Lindsay Stewart, CEO of Stringr, told Mumbrella: “Stringr is a video marketplace that allows customers like NBC stations, ABC stations and the Associated Press to literally put a pin on a map and ask for the custom footage that it wants.

No mention here or on their website about what the rates will be … inc travel time, kill fees etc. Still, sounds interesting.
