Cinema Advertising

Is it the film itself or the advertising that accompanied it that has the most steadying influence on our thoughts? While many of us will still have to recollect the story or scenes of the movie, at an instant we can recall the advertisement for anti-smoking campaigns done by many celebrities that is shown before the movie starts.

Cinema advertising relates to the on-screen and off-screen branding that customers see in theatres; it is often viewed as a short audio-visual commercial before the film begins, as posters in movie theatres, and so on. It has always been a very successful marketing medium.

Why Cinema Advertising? There Are  Various Benefits:

• The message has a “larger-than-life” impact on enormous movie displays.
• The audience is a massive audience since they cannot change channels or flick through the pages of a print advertisement and are unlikely to leave during commercials.
• Cinema advertising is seen by an audience that is likely to be focused on the screen or the cinema hall environment.
• Cinema advertising ensures a longer attention span, allowing the message to be transmitted more effectively.
• Cinema, with its vast localized reach across India, is perfectly suited to reaching out to both a small geographical area and the entire country.
• A world-class sound system has been installed in the theatre.
• It is more beneficial to combine cinema advertising with TV promotions.
• Including cinema in the media plan expands its effective reach.
• In movies, media planners can target TV ad avoidance schemes.
• Marketers reduce media waste by localising advertising in theatres.
• Cinema attracts a young audience.
• In movies, personalised pin-code advertising is feasible.
• Cinema is the simplest advertising medium.
• Cinema is the only advertising medium that offers on-screen advertising, branding, sampling, unique advertising, and activations in every location in India.
• In the long run, cinema advertising is incredibly cost-effective.
• Cinema advertising successfully boosts brand and message memory.
• Marketers employ cinemas for hyper-local advertising.
• Cinema advertising is the superior alternative to ordinary advertising.
• Cinema advertising has the lowest cost per effective contact.
• To boost commercial recall, on-screen material might employ full sight, sound, and motion.
• Unlike radio, cinema does not require a high frequency to have an effect—once with a decent ad will be enough because the audience is so involved in this circumstance.
• The linkage of an advertisement with movies on the large screen in full colour typically boosts the business image of the marketer.
• Ads are placed near the point of purchase because cinemas are located near or in suburban shopping malls and other high-profile retail districts.
• A demographic profile based on the cinema’s geographic location can be used to target campaigns.

As a result, a healthy ecosystem has emerged, providing a platform for companies to engage with consumers in the most powerful way possible. The great aspect of cinema advertising is that it caters to a targeted community. It also allows you to advertise in certain regions with various pitches.

The expansion in the number of multiplex screens across the country has provided a significant benefit to the evolution of in-cinema advertising. There is also widespread acknowledgment among the advertising and media purchasing communities. Cinema advertising provides a large audience that is more interested when an advertisement is playing.

Other important factors include infrastructure improvements and more footfall. Prior to every release, production houses invest in creative marketing and promotion initiatives, creating a lot of excitement for the movie. All of this contributes to massive crowds flocking to cinemas, which results in a huge audience for cinema advertising.
