Ads run on screen before the feature film, as part of the pre-show program.

Lobby and poster placements may also be available depending on the venue.

Mary Esther's cinema audience skews younger than traditional TV viewers, with a national median moviegoer age of 30. Sixty percent are cord-cutters or cord-nevers, so they're largely out of reach for cable or broadcast campaigns. Cinema attention ratings also beat CTV and YouTube, making it a solid complement to those channels or a straight replacement.

The standard campaign unit is 4 weeks, matching typical theatrical booking cycles. Most advertisers start with a single 4-week flight to measure response, then extend based on results. Longer commitments across multiple flights build frequency, which matters in a smaller market like Mary Esther where the audience pool is consistent and contained.
