ENTERTAINMENT

Inspiring audiences across a changing media landscape

The way we consume and experience entertainment continues to evolve. From big screens and phone screens to live and on-demand, there are so many new and exciting ways to reach and engage audiences, however they want to watch.

At Optimal, we harness our deep understanding of consumers and their evolving media habits to place your content in front of the right people in the channels they watch most.

Driving attendance and filling seats

We’ll help you maximize movie attendance from opening weekend throughout the chase. And you’ll see the results — with measurable and accountable attendance and box office revenue.

Harnessing the power of VOD

Entertainment has evolved, and so have we – embracing linear, cable media, and subscription platforms. We support theatrical movie releases through VOD debuts to drive maximum revenue for productions of all sizes.

For your consideration campaigns

Awards fuel recognition, awareness, and long-term success. From Academy Awards to influential film festivals, we’re experts at reaching industry audiences that drive successful FYC campaigns. And we've got the Oscars to prove it.

Showstopping performance

Entertainment marketing has historically lagged consumer behavior, ignoring shifts in media consumption in favor of traditional advertising methods. The result? Waste and lack of attribution. We do things differently, ensuring we maximize P&A budgets to drive the greatest amount of box office, PVOD, TVOD, SVOD, and AVOD revenues. From multi-platform day-and-date launch strategies to nationwide releases across thousands of screens — we work with clients of all shapes and sizes, providing the same level of dedication and expertise for all and making promotional budgets work harder.

Connecting with audiences everywhere

We take a holistic approach to digital marketing, optimizing for efficiencies between tactics and channels. We make changes in real-time based on audience reactions and results – pivoting to give you the greatest impact. Our technology considers channel, audience, creative placement, time of day, format, and more, to deliver your content to the right people, whenever and wherever they’re watching.

Investing with confidence in P&A

We believe so strongly in the effectiveness of our work that we often put our money where our mouth is — partnering with filmmakers, producers, and distributors to invest directly into P&A budgets. This lowers cash outlay needs and de-risks investments for film consortiums.
