THE MGN TEAM

Gill DavisChairman & CEO - As founder of MGN Online, Gill oversees the day-to-day operations. Beginning in 1982, Gill recognized the need for quality News Graphics for Television News. Since that time there has been a non-stop evolution in the technology used to Create, Store, and Distribute News Graphics. With Gill’s direction, MGN Online continues to be the Leader and Innovator in Graphic Journalism.

Ed Clemente – President / GSM & LCM – Ed started at MGN Online in 2015 and took on the newly created role of Photo Hub Chief. From there, Ed also began managing MGN's License Compliance office and worked as a liaison with photo providers to ensure a constant stream of News Photos with secure licenses. With Ed’s hard work he has moved up to President of MGN Online. Ed runs MGN's Daily Operations and is guiding the company into the next generation of news service. 

Darcie LarkinAccounting Manager – Darcie has been with MGN since its inception. Through all the years of change, she has been involved with all the day-to-day decisions and operational adjustments made at MGN. Her duties also include all accounting functions. Her attention to detail reflects on our service, one of MGN’s most positive attributes.

Art Department – MGN has some of the country's premier Graphic Journalists staffed to create unique News Content supporting Breaking News, Daily Top Stories and several MGN proprietary Work Products from our Animations, 3-D Photos, Motion Photos and more... All created DAILY to meet the News Demand and delivered to satisfy national and international News coverage. 

WHY A NEWS GRAPHIC SERVICE?

A picture is worth a thousand words... and finding the right images for your News can be a time consuming and difficult proposition. At MGN Online, we take the time to find, produce, store, and deliver News Graphics on a daily basis. There are some very practical reasons to use a News Graphic Service:

  1. Valuable production time spent building News Graphics does not generate revenue for your company.
  2. Locating, producing and archiving images each day is a time consuming effort.
  3. Many images produced and archived will never be used again.
  4. Images obtained from Google and other sites can lead to Copyright infringement.
  5. Keeping up with logo changes from Sports Teams and Corporate Logos is an ongoing process.
  6. News Graphic production requires specialty software that is constantly changing and costly.
  7. Finding, creating and managing an image database is a full-time business unto itself.
