11 Most films are released through what is known as the window system. In this system, films are first given a theatrical release and after a certain period of time are made available on DVD or Blu-Ray. Each window is protected from possible cannibalisation by alternative release formats. Following with the contractually agreed period then free to view and pay per view TV.

12 Conventional film marketing techniques are: Posters Trailers Merchandise Electronic Press Kits and Stills

13 Websites that allow visitors to view scenes, interviews and in-the-making documentary style shorts, play games, chat in forums, etc. Movie makers attempt to get positive press in newspapers, magazines and on entertainment TV shows. ( A press junket – journalists and entertainment reporters, reviewers are flown out to a special location for a day or weekend of interviews with the stars and directors and the reporters ask their questions.

14 Publicity Blitz – when the marketers bombard the public with posters, promos and ads, bus billboards, road billboards, teaser trailers on TV, main actors show up on major talk shows etc. Internet blitz of bloopers, behind the scenes clips and other viral videos – YouTube. Corporate and product tie-ins – Before the release of the Grinch Who Stole Christmas the Grinch was on the packages of Oreo cookies.

16 Although the American movie industry take in billions of dollars a year, very few Hollywood movies actually make a profit. It costs a tremendous amount to make a major studio movie. The average production budget of a major movie reached $70.8 million in 2007, but to sell that movie to the public, studios spent another $35.9 on marketing for a total budget of $106.6 million per picture. Hollywood relies on a few hits each season to make up for the majority of films that fail to break even. The uncertainty of the movie business makes the job of the movie marketer even more important. Whether a movie is Oscar worthy or downright lousy, the movie marketer has to figure out a way to fill those seats at the multiplex.
