Moviegoers Will Enjoy Even More Live In-Cinema Sports, Arts and News Events

New York, NY October 26, 2009 – Screenvision, the leading innovator in cinema advertising is expanding its live feed technology to 300 movie theatres across the country by the end of 2010. This technology will allow Screenvision to expand its diverse live event programs and even exhibit live events that are exclusive to cinema. In addition to viewing sports, concerts, arts and news events, the technology also has a corporate application, for live business. Building on the great success of live in-cinema programs like Mets at the Movies and The MSNBC Presidential Inauguration of President Obama, moviegoers can see their favorite teams, musicians, and performers live on a 40 foot screen like never before.

“Screenvision is committed to using its digital national network to deliver top quality entertainment to movie theatres across the U.S. From documentaries, concerts, live sports, comedy we are creating a full spectrum of alternatives to compliment the biggest draw of all, the feature-length movie,” said Darryl Schaffer, Executive Vice President, Exhibitor Relations for Screenvision. “Corporations can also take advantage of this innovative technology by hosting live meetings and events at Screenvision theatres.”
