Capitol City Cinema Marketing/Publicity Project The Cinema proposes a renewed, intensive, marketing push through the end of 2015.The period coincides with (a) Downtown Jefferson City events and(b) higher attendance at movies during holiday vacations. The Cinema proposes: 1. Fliers/cards to hand out.Although the Cinema has created low-cost fliers,we propose to try creating and printing higher quality fliers and cords showing movies through the holiday period. Included would be publicity regarding two special programs: a. the children's'program in December funded through the Commission's MAC grant; and b. a special,free showing of a movie for families before and after the Jefferson City Christmas Parade in December.The plan is to make the initial distribution push during "Living Windows" and other downtown holiday events.

Posters:The Cinema proposes to print posters (about 11"x14")that can be placed in various locations around town and at Lincoln University.Again,the grant would pay for design and printing costs. 3. Social Media.The Cinema uses Facebook, but will use a portion of the grant to "boost" its presence for particular movies during the rest of the year. 4.
