For Studios

The process of booking theaters should be about speed, simplicity and data available at your fingertips. Users can quickly build their release plan and book theaters for a title. Soon, Sales and Film Buyers will be able to interact and negotiate screens directly through the system.

The Film Bureau theater database is the central collection of details on nearly 6,500 theaters and venues in the US, Canada and more. This includes information on everything from the auditoriums to the lobby, the Film Buyers to the Owner and the Payers. This information is critical to understand where your film is booked. Film Bureau has designed its theater database as a shared resource, allowing our customers to utilize information that is curated and maintained.

Managing the system should be a simple process that can be distributed across the user organization. As the Film Bureau platform has been designed to support a range of business needs for an organization, this “ingest once to serve many” approach supports that. Admins can easily manage titles, booking terms, release prints, screeners, users, system settings and more.

The process of closing contracts should be about speed and simplicity. The Film Bureau platform provides a touchless process that enables Film Buyers to search for content, review terms, book films and trigger delivery.

Offering a complete view into a customer’s library, Film Buyers can search titles and filter by any number of criteria including title, release date, genre, cast/crew and more, review marketing assets, view a digital screener, and look for technical specs or fulfillment details on various print types. Coming soon, buyers will also be able to negotiate terms directly through the system.

Users can easily search theaters across a broad range of details, order prints for screenings and define the initial screening details, all with just a few clicks. Multiple locations that contain different details such as the date/time per location, key window, screening type, prints, print vendors, etc. can easily be added to a single order and submitted.

The screening management tools provides an “at a glance” view of all details of your screenings, whether in-theatre, digital, or both. Input fields are available for information such as location, invited circuits, security, contact details, costs, and much more. By combining this information with the ordering process, users are relieved of tracking and updating data across multiple systems.

Secure digital Press Screeners, Trade Screenings and Award Screeners, all available to view within a simple to use interface on a global basis.
