Notes to Editors



ZOO Digital Group Plc (www.zoodigitalgroup.com)



ZOO Digital Group, the DVD technology and games publishing company, was founded
in 1999 by Ian Stewart (founder of Gremlin Interactive plc). In April 2001 it
reversed into AIM listed technology company Kazoo3D.  ZOO has strong expertise
in two areas - DVD authoring software and games publishing.



About ZOOtech Ltd



ZOOtech has developed a revolutionary software authoring system (content
management) called DVD-EXTRA for producing highly interactive DVD-Video discs
that will play on any standard set-top consumer DVD player.  DVD-Extra unlocks
the hidden interactive capabilities that exist in every player, and allows
developers to produce titles that exhibit many of the properties of multimedia
CD-ROM on a standard, unmodified, set-top device.  ZOO is making its technology
available in the form of an authoring system called DVD-Extra Studio on a
license basis. This will allow content owners not only to substantially reduce
the cost of developing features on a DVD disc but will also allow the creative
community  - from Hollywood to corporate and educational institutions - to add
features and produce new products currently not possible for economic or
technical reasons. 60 DVD and multimedia developers are currently part of a
DVD-ExtraTM 'Early-Adopters' programme including BBC Worldwide, Disney and
Warner Bros (GDMX).
