CSA opts for new creative solutions department

 

The ITV-owned cinema sales house Carlton Screen Advertising (CSA) has replaced its sponsorship and promotions division with a creative solutions department that will focus on a broader variety of revenue-making opportunities.

The new division will "take campaigns beyond the ad reel" and make the most of consumer inter-action that in-foyer activity offers.

The move means cinema-goers will be targeted with advertising from the moment they enter the building, rather than only when the pre-film ads begin to roll.

In a demonstration of creative solutions at work, a recent ad campaign for Nintendo Wii included live ads in the auditorium played by actors, as well as gaming demos in the foyer, while Red Bull used a series of 3-D ads and Orange made use of Bluetooth technology.

The creative solutions division will be headed by account director Ian Cartwright, while Dave Kapur returns to CSA in creative development, a newly created role that spans the whole cinema media offering.

Kapur's experience spans advertising and sponsorship, including the Orange Gold Spot business.
