BrandBranding your movie series.If you plan on hosting regularly scheduled movie events in your community, consider branding the series for consistency.
First: Come up with a memorable name for the series like “Movie Mondays” or “Free Movie Friday” and be sure to stay consistent with the time, day of the week and location of your showings.
Next: Create a cohesive set of visuals, including posters, flyers, schedules, signage and social media posts. This goes beyond using the same logo to incorporate colors, fonts and the general aesthetic.
Investing time to properly brand your event will help you better reach your targeted audience, increase exposure and, ultimately, draw larger crowds.

CUSTOMER EXAMPLES
Each summer, the city of Placentia in California invites the community to its Movies in the Park series. After packing picnics and blankets, families arrive early to pick a prime spot. According to Matthew Brand, Placentia’s community service coordinator, excitement for the series is so strong that many attendees arrive before the event staff! Keep reading to learn Brand’s top tips for creating a successful movie series in your community:
• Invite the audience to vote on your next movie at the event – a great way to engage attendees!
• Enhance your event with pre-show activities, like musical games and trivia, and free giveaways that incentivize attendance
• Partner with local nonprofits to sell snacks and drinks – helps cover food offerings and supports your community!
• Secure sponsorships for event funding and logistics. Spotlight individual sponsors on specific movie nights – allowing them to give out free popcorn to engage with the community
• It’s “well worth the extra money” to show premium titles as they always attract a larger crowd
• Switch up your event’s location to reach all of your community
• Always send a survey out at the end of the series to collect film and event suggestions for next summer
• Try to do one or two new things each year to keep things fresh and continually evolving
