(PRWEB) September 11, 2017 -- Footage.net, the stock, archival and news footage search engine, announced today that preview clips from Bridgeman Footage are now available for viewing through Footage.net.

Bridgeman Images represents over 2,000 image suppliers - including museums, galleries, artists, stately homes, photographers, private collections, libraries, universities, auction houses and picture archives.
“We are delighted to be making the Bridgeman Footage archive searchable through Footage.net,” said Edward Whitley, North American president of Bridgeman Images. He added, "We’ve had a very successful partnership with Footage.net for a number of years through their Zap Request service; and in making our clips searchable through their portal, we are now opening up our entire archive to Footage.net’s extensive network of media professionals worldwide. Bridgeman Footage continues to digitize, catalog and upload hours of film every week so it is important to check with our research team if there are clips a customer can’t find.”
