In 1991, a group of United Press International veterans launched Wieck Media to fill a growing need for timely, precise delivery of digital images.
In 2005, Wieck Australasia began operations with a team trained by Australia’s leading newspaper empires and experienced in public relations to fulfill the growing shift towards online technologies in the industry.
Today, Wieck uses leading-edge compression and editing techniques, advanced web technologies and searchable databases to keep up with the changing world of digital media — but it’s our unmatched editorial experience that makes our clients and their audiences breathe easier when deadlines are near.
Drawing upon decades of experience, our seasoned management team leads a talented, dedicated staff that delivers unmatched customer satisfaction.
Wieck specialises in building, populating and maintaining
media-friendly Online Newsrooms that give editors fast access to print-
and broadcast-ready digital assets.
Unlike other software or in-house applications, our solutions
never require significant work or technical management from your IT
staff — so you can be sure that a
professional engagement with Wieck Australasia will multiply your
capabilities without taxing your resources.
Just send us your source media — photos, videos or audio files. We’ll do the rest.
Editorial Expertise
Wieck Australasia is the South Pacific affiliate of Wieck Media,
both are owned and operated by seasoned media professionals with vast
experience in the news and public
relations industries.
They know what it’s like not only to develop but also to be on
the receiving end of public relations initiatives. Wieck leverages this
solid news background to
efficiently deliver media-friendly text, photo, audio and video
files.
Today, Wieck continues to work hand in hand with leading news
organisations such as The New York Times, which provides us with ongoing
insight into the evolution of the
modern newsroom and the changing needs of media professionals
worldwide.
Bandwidth and Security
Wieck complements your IT staff by taking on the time-consuming
chores that Online Newsrooms bring, such as ongoing site maintenance,
digital asset management, and
proactive handling of bandwidth and security issues.
IT departments are historically overworked and understaffed, and
their first order of business is to keep the company’s internal systems
running at peak performance.
With Wieck, your public relations initiatives are our first and only
concern.
24/7 Responsiveness
No matter how many hours you work or how many late-night phone
calls you field from reporters and editors, it isn’t always humanly
possible for one person or department
to keep up with a constant stream of queries from journalists in the
era of a 24 hour news cycle.
Our editorial support desk serves as a vital extension of your
team, providing media professionals with the information, images and
additional assistance they need to
meet pressing deadlines.
Whenever and wherever your media contacts need assistance, Wieck
is ready to respond. Wieck can provide you with a solution that truly
keeps you on top of the 24 hour
global news environment.
