A Single Source for Cinema City

Beaver Solutions (part of Beaver Group) has recently finished a project for Cinema City International, delivering a complete and single-sourced digital menu board and print design service. Beaver Solutions is uniquely placed to provide quality digital menu board content development and traditional print designs, from one agency.

With this exciting project we are providing content to six countries throughout Europe and Israel, improving the promotion of Cinema City’s concessions, increasing sales and saving money on wastage. The digital and print menus work in harmony with a coherent design throughout, promotions are quicker and prices can be changed whenever needed.

UNIFIED DESIGN, FROM ONE AGENCY

Beaver have over 30 years experience in print design and 15 years developing digital signage content. Cinema City also benefitted from the specific menu board expertise of sister company, Signature Digital Menus.

Beaver shot specific high definition video content for use on the digital menu boards, and developed a stylish and elegant design which communicates the concessions available in each of the cinemas located in Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Romania, Bulgaria, in the local languages. Where changes are required, these can be implemented throughout their signage (both print and digital). The solution was quick and dynamic, due in no small part to the fact that the print and digital teams work from the same offices.

Cinema City Content Design

"The content and video production by Beaver Solutions is excellent. We’ve had a lot of good feedback from our customers and we’re noticing a significant uplift in sales. The design work from Beaver Solutions has really made a difference.”

– Alon Zohar, Cinema City

FUTURE

Ongoing price changes and additional items are also being managed by Beaver Solutions, continuing to deliver increased sales and reduced costs.

Cinema City International is the largest operator of multiplex cinemas in Central Europe, Eastern Europe and Israel, with more than 70 multiplex cinemas in six countries. In the next 6-12 months, there are plans to roll out the new designs to additional countries, including Israel.

Delivering quality design services, Beaver Solutions are pretty pumped* to be providing Cinema City International with unified digital signage and print content throughout their cinemas.

Who won the champagne...?

Last Wednesday, Beaver Design went to the HBI Business Expo at the Galleria, Hatfield. This is the second time Beaver Design has exhibitied at one of these Business Expos (you can read about our previous time here) and it was great to meet and talk with so many businesses from the local area.

We were pleased to see so many start-up businesses and get a chance to talk about the need for strong branding, quality marketing materials and of course, good website design. Many of the people we talked to were also interested in our digital signage services and if you would like to find out more about digital signage, as well as some video case-studies, please take a look at www.beaver-group.com.

For those of you who gave us your business card or entered it into our bowl, there was a chance to win a bottle of Taittinger champagne. We are pleased to announce that the winner of this bottle is Nicole Foulger from St John Ambulance. Congratulations! It will be finding it's way over to you in the next few days.

Best e-business at FSB Awards

The gala award ceremony for the Federation of Small Business (FSB) Awards 2009 was held last week and Beaver Solutions, part of the Beaver Group, is proud to have won second place in the category of “best e-business”.

Beaver Solutions is the sister company to Beaver Design, both of which form the Beaver Group. The Beavers beat off a lot of difficult competition with our innovative and successful work in the field of digital signage and web development. The awards noted our continuing work in integrating digital signage with a range of different web technologies.

All the Beavers are proud to have won another award for our work and would like to congratulate all the other winners and finalists from the evening.

Disney designs for digital signs

Every week, new movies are released and shown throughout the country’s cinemas. This means that each week, new posters are needed to promote the current and upcoming movie releases. For Showcase Cinemas, this means digital posters – since throughout their Bristol, Leicester, Derby and Nottingham venues, they are using a complete digital signage system provided by Beaver Group.

The Beaver Group provide weekly designs and content for Showcase’s upcoming movies. The artwork comes direct from the movie distributors to Beaver Group, where we edit, animate and create the digital signage posters for the cinema.

Because the physical space a digital signage screen takes up can be reused again and again, more than just one poster can be shown on the same screen. This means that Beaver create the posters for smaller movies, as well as the big films from Paramount, 20th Century Fox, Disney and others.

Salvation through digital menus

As part of the ongoing service we provide for Showcase Cinemas, the Beaver Group, designs new promotions for the concession stand menu boards to tie in with current movie releases. Recently, this has been in the form of a number of pieces for promotional content to tie in with the releases of Terminator Salvation and the Ron Howard thriller, Angels & Demons.

Along with all design services we provide (graphic, web & digital signage), the content design for promotions on digital menu boards is a specialist service which the Beaver Group provides.
