ShutterSong:基於圖片的背景音樂生成平臺是一個可以在JPEG格式的圖片中嵌入音樂和聲音。使用者在拍攝完成之後，可以用手機錄製自己的聲音或者從音樂庫中下載喜歡的聲效，然後將聲音嵌入圖片中。
Shuttersong公司的創始人William Agush表示，他們創造了一種全新的表達媒介，填補了靜態圖片和視訊之間的空白，這樣使用者就可以進行自由創作，比如會唱歌的明信片。
現在每天全球有5億張圖片被上傳到網上，圖片分享業務正呈現巨大的成長。而圖片分享應用會有兩種結局，要麼成為使用者過百萬的明星應用，要麼悄悄死去。比如Instagram被Facebook以10億美元的價格收購;私密圖片應用Snapchat估價40億美元，使用者每天上傳2億張圖片。還比如輕部落格Tumblr被雅虎以10億美元的價格收購，上面搭載著上億的個人部落格和幾百萬張圖片;Vine應用被Twitter公司收購，這個應用可以錄製不到6秒的短視訊，眼下使用者已經突破4000萬。
Shuttersong也想成為上面這些成功案例，他們的方法是將圖片和音效結合。相對而言，背景音樂和視訊的結合會更自然一些，因為視訊的內容會隨著時間不斷的變動。而Shuttersong是想用一種更加簡單的方式，將聲音和圖片整合，並傳遞情感。
While cleaning out his office last summer, Shuttersong’s founder William Agush discovered a photo of his son taken in 1995 in a frame with a button marked play. Upon pressing it, there was the voice of his son from 18 years ago, clear as day. The idea behind Shuttersong was born.
Simpler than video, richer than photos, Shuttersong® lets you effortlessly combine digital images with sound and share them everywhere. Use Shuttersong to photograph a moment in time and add its soundtrack by selecting a song clip from your music library or recording live voice or sound through your phone. Then, share your “Shuttersong“ with family, friends and colleagues through social networks, email, or text. Shuttersong also works with existing photos in your library and images from the web, so you can create infinite image + sound combinations.
As Shuttersongs are based on standard JPEG files, they are incredibly easy to share and view – in the app or on the web – and can even be embedded into web pages and blog posts. The patent-pending technology joins the image and audio into a single photo file that can be viewed or printed just like a normal high-quality JPEG.
