Client Background

A leading film distribution agency partnered with Trueview to promote upcoming movie releases across major shopping malls. With theatrical trailers largely limited to cinema halls, the agency wanted to build early buzz and recall among casual mall visitors days before release.

The objective was to:

Showcase movie trailers and release-day creatives in high-visibility mall zones.
Reach a wider audience beyond cinema-going customers.
Reinforce movie awareness during repeated mall visits.
Manage content updates easily across multiple mall locations.

Problems Faced

Other Observations

Competitive Disadvantage – Schools without modern technology were increasingly seen as less attractive and less desirable by parents and students.
Retention Concerns – The absence of advanced tools made it harder for schools, universities, and coaching centers to retain students in a competitive environment.
Educator Frustration – Teachers expressed the need for better technology to simplify teaching complex topics and engage a diverse student body.

Solutions Implemented

High-Impact Mall Displays

Trueview Digital Signages were installed in mall atriums, escalator zones, and main walkways, ensuring maximum exposure.

Trailer & Creative Playback

Movie trailers, motion posters, countdown creatives, and release-day announcements were played in dynamic video loops to capture attention instantly.

Timed Content Scheduling

Campaigns were scheduled to intensify closer to release day, increasing frequency during peak footfall hours.

All displays across multiple malls were managed from a single dashboard, allowing instant creative swaps and campaign extensions.
