STREAMING LIFE INTO EMPTY WINDOWS
If you have an empty window, here’s a
way of making it a selling attraction.
StreetlevelBillboards and StreetlevelTV from Motomedia
are certainly thinking big and in that, big window spaces are set
as targets to become prime attractions for delivering big messages.
There are thousands of empty retail units available throughout
the UK says Motomedia who takes those in prime locations and transforms
the shop windows into innovative and powerful advertising and marketing
tools. For StreetlevelBillboards, using externally applied printed
vinyl, the windows are converted into customer-facing, large scale,
interactive audio visual poster sites right in the centre of the
consumer domain.
“We give an opportunity to get large format
advertising with audio, video, Bluetooth interaction and audience
data capture, at street level,” says Kenny Maclean, Motomedia’s
MD.

StreetlevelBillboards and StreetlevelTV from Motomedia
are certainly thinking big and in that, big window spaces are set as
targets to become prime attractions for delivering big messages. There

Motomedia who takes those in prime locations and transforms the shop

For StreetlevelBillboards, using externally applied printed vinyl, the
windows are converted into customer-facing, large scale, interactive
audio visual poster sites right in the centre of the consumer domain.
“We give an opportunity to get large format advertising
with audio, video, Bluetooth interaction and audience data capture, at
street level,” says Kenny Maclean, Motomedia’s MD.
In its StreetlevelBillboards transformation process, high
performance printed vinyl becomes the tool for large format images and
branding. The existing shop sign is replaced and advanced, through-glass
sound drivers are used to deliver outstanding audio. Daylight video projection
screens are said to deliver super-bright, crystal clear digital video
images with the server software enabling real time changes to video and
sound via playlist scheduling.
Synchronised Bluetooth downloads make for content and playlist
update with integrated intelligence able to capture records, viewing
times and viewer demographic including age and gender.
Motomedia puts large scale campaigns within reach of all
companies, it says, not just those with a national advertising budget.
Advertisers are able to choose high profile locations local to their
business simply via the database on the Motomedia website.
Motomedia says its technology can be used in any way an
advertiser wishes, providing high quality design and creativity services
to match the quality of the advertising sites used. The company also
provides advice and guidance on campaign deployment, as well on creative
use of a site for maximum impact.
Motomedia says its system generates additional income by
using the drab, vacant shops and turning them into creative advertising
theatres. “We are highly imaginative with the space at our disposal,” says
Ronan McMacken, Creative Director, “we strive to create maximum
impact for our advertisers.”
As the clock struck 9.00am on the March 12 last year at
33 Liverpool Street, London, the building came alive with a 15ft high
wall of graphics, digital video and music to celebrate the release of
LCD Soundsystem’s then new album, Sound Of Silver. For the launch
LCD’s label, EMI Records was looking for an edgy, modern approach
to advertising the band and Motomedia says it developed just what was
wanted. Those chimes also marked the first live visual and sound show
to be produced by Motomedia. “We are very excited about the Motomedia
concept and feel it is the perfect platform to launch music,” notes
Kenny Maclean.
The response from EMI Records came from its media buyer,
Nuvisions. “We are absolutely delighted with this new form of advertising,
says Miguel Tatay. “Response to the advert was phenomenal and it
was a real talking point within industry circles.”
Taking the StreetlevelBillboards concept on a level is
Streetlevel-TV. Shopping centres offer a fantastic advertising opportunity
says Motomedia. With centres full of browsing shoppers already primed
to buy, and as a point of purchase of most brands and products, StreetlevelTV
offers a powerful medium to influence spend.
In a shopping centre environment, says Motomedia, shoppers
stop to look at what catches their attention. In partnership with shopping
centre owners, the company provides accurate demographic and footfall
data and with the weekly average footfall of a shopping centre in the
UK in excess of 250,000, Motomedia says it can provide national coverage
to meet needs of any marketing campaign. “StreetlevelTV gives you
an opportunity to use existing TV advertising with sound, interaction
and audience data capture on an OOH basis,” says Kenny Maclean.
Under its StreetlevelTV concept Motomedia is able to deliver
using large format screens to bring live TV images and up to date news
and weather content to complement a marketing campaign. Shoppers are
given the opportunity to see sporting events, clips and other key TV
content in conjunction with client advertising.
With the system, show music videos and clips of live bands
with sound can be used to promote local, national and international artists.
It can also display adverts for local events and local business and advertisers
have the ability to see who is looking at the system using via Motomedia’s
audience data capture techniques.
StreetlevelTV is said to deliver more than standard outdoor.
It is designed to engage the consumer, says Motomedia, and it is at street
level. It is customer facing, measurable and located in shopping havens.
The rate card for StreetlevelTV starts at £799/week with up to
1000 impressions throughout the week. And with units available throughout
the UK and Europe, Motomedia says it is equipped to deliver outstanding
advertising solutions.
Motomedia can supply projection equipment for most environments
and locations. For motion sensing and interactivity, it enables users
to navigate projected content by touching the projection surface, with
motion sensing cameras and advanced software giving the user the ability
to move and navigate animated projected content using hand movement.
The company can also design custom animated content for use in conjunction
with projection and interactive technologies. The possibilities, it concludes,
are infinitely exciting.
