MOVIETOWNE ADVERTISING POLICIES & GUIDELINES

• All creative material must be reviewed and approved in advance by MovieTowne to ensure the quality of the production and to confirm suitability for an all ages audience. MovieTowne reserves the right to refuse ads based on poor quality or suitability.
• Cinema ads are played in all cinemas before each movie (5-6 movies played per screen per day).
• Cinema Ads - Port of Spain ads run in all 10 cinemas, Chaguanas ads run in all 8 cinemas, Tobago ads run in all 4 cinemas.
• Cinema Ad reels are changed twice per month on the 1st and the 15th of each month so we would need your creative material in advance of these dates.
• Once space is available, your ad has been approved and contracts have been signed, your ad can start running.
• Ads will need to be provided according to our ad specifications requirements.
• Production set up costs become applicable for each new creative spot being loaded on to our system.
• Contracts available for 3, 6 and 12 month durations.
• Advertising space is limited and generally booked in advance for long-term periods.
• Preferred Positioning (a special position in our play schedule) – Add 15% to rates each month.
• Advertising Rates do not include Agency Commission.
• 15% V.A.T. to be added to advertising rates.
• An advertising contract is only confirmed after a MovieTowne contract has been signed by the designated company representative and stamped with the Client’s company stamp.
