More Than a Movie: Eventizing the Theatrical Experience

PACKAGE:Moderator: Anne Fitzgerald, Chief Legal Officer and EVP, Real Estate,

Cineplex Entertainment

Panelists:

Alejandro Ramírez Magaña, CEO, Cinépolis

Cathleen Taff, President, Theatrical Distribution and Franchise, The Walt

Disney Studios

Thinking the theatrical experience begins when the lights go down and an

image appears on screen is the wrong way of thinking. In today’s fast-paced,

digital, streaming, and sensory overloaded world, the true theatrical

experience should begin before the moviegoer leaves their home. The

experience needs to begin early on with excitement, anticipation, and

expectation. And then it’s time to make good on those promises at the theater,

culminating with the lights going down and that image appearing on screen.

This session will get into the mindset of what distribution and exhibition need

to be thinking about and acting on so as to create that truly, one-of-a-kind

motion picture theatrical experience.

10:30am – 11:30am

Differentiating the Guest Experience Through Theater Design

Presenter: Cameron Mitchell, CEO, VOX Cinemas

Design internationally is evolving at a record pace, with exhibitors required to

embrace increasing expectations in relation to tech, F&B and customer

experience, all with a view on enhancing the guest experience and driving

market share and earnings. This presentation will look at examples of best

practice from designs around the world, to see what different exhibitors are

doing to ensure their venues are remaining the most attractive leisure offerings

globally.

11:30am – 12:30pm

Data = Opportunity: Opening the Collaborative Window

Sarah Lewthwaite, Managing Director & SVP, EMEA, Movio Panel Members

(To Date)

Luke Vetere, Managing Director, 20th Century Studios Distribution (GCC) at

Majid Al Futtaim LLC

Data is the new oil, and whilst it is often spoken about as being the holy grail

that must be cracked, exhibitors and distributors are still yet to come up with a

workable solution that addresses who owns the data, who can use it, who

pays for it, and how can the industry can universally benefit from the data. This

session will look at some examples of best practice from around the world, and

end with a panel discussion on how studios and exhibitors could collaborate

on driving attendances to the mutual benefit of all stakeholders.

Donn Rappaport, Founder & Chairman of the Board, ALC, Inc.

Modern marketers know success is no longer simply a matter of selling a good

product. They’ve learned customer knowledge—understanding, and even

anticipating, the customers’ wants and needs, their orientation and interests,

their attitudes and motivations—is critical to achieving a healthy return on

marketing spend. In this session, you’ll hear how smart marketers are

deploying breakthrough data gathering and management strategies to define

their target audiences, develop three-dimensional personas that enable

compelling communications, create continuous feedback loops that generate

more data and increasingly valuable customer insights and encourage high

value customer loyalty. What’s more, you’ll discover how you can employ

those same simple, cost-efficient tactics to fill theater seats.
