The Mobile cinema that comes to you
Enjoy the magic of the movies on the BIG screen!
We recommend various marketing methods;
Use banners/posters inside & outside the actual venue
(We can usually provide A4 size film posters for you to adapt)
Place adverts in local shops & supermarkets.
Produce flyers for newsagents & shops to give to customers.
Target libraries, post offices, leisure centres, health centres etc.
Advertise on parish council notice boards & inside council buildings
Arrange for the paperboy/girl to deliver leaflets
Target sheltered schemes, retirement homes & community centres
as older age groups particularly enjoy the cinema.
Contact the scheme managers to help promote your shows.
Carry articles or adverts in the local community newsletters
A commercial screening licence, supplied by Filmscene, allows your shows to be marketed to the public
You are also entitled to make a direct charge to your audience
Note: For public shows, your venue needs a Community Premises Licence with the box for Film and Video endorsed.
A Temporary Events Notice is available for one-off and short-notice events. Contact your local Licensing officer
For family shows use local schools/colleges to display posters
Use mail-shots or leaflets for children to give to their parents
To successfully run regular film shows, create a film club & encourage your audience to join
Obtain postal / email address of your members to inform them of forthcoming film programmes.
This promotes audience continuity by building up a core membership, reducing advertising
Provide an audience questionnaire to help you gauge film tastes and feedback on films viewed
Effective Marketing ensures greater audience attendance and greater profits!
Issue a press release with your local paper
Contact your local journalist for free publicity
(offer some free tickets as an incentive).
In line with commercial cinemas, the majority of your revenue is generated through the sale of refreshments to your audience so its important to make sure you sell as much as you can.
Sweets, ice cream, popcorn, hot food, cakes, soft drinks, tea, coffee, alcohol etc are all ideal for selling before the movie, during an interval and after the show
You could offer free guest ticket/s to future shows This encourages people to bring a friend or relative
Raffles are popular for generating revenue
Film shows are ideal fund raising events
