In Film marketing or In Film product placement, to be more specific is the premiere and most effective mode of entertainment marketing. Generally when a top conglomerate launches a new product it has several activities that are undertaken simultaneously. They could directly have the product launch released by the press in the form of newspapers and magazines, they could create the hype for its online consumers by aggressive advertisements and marketing on the web, they could also call upon top news channels and ask them to do a thorough coverage on their launch and then telecast it on their respective television networks. These activities would generally ensure that the people, masses and classes alike would become aware of the launch in the market, but as far as creating brand awareness or identity is concerned and in the process reaching out to the targeted set of consumers, you would need to have a public figure to acknowledge the usage of that particular product and that comes through in film marketing. People generally tend to confuse the two terms Film Marketing & In Film Marketing, and in most cases they assume them to be the same, which isnt correct. Film Marketing is generally a practice undertaken by most film studios by investing in expensive marketing campaigns such as paid trailers on television & radio, snapshots and promos of the film are also shown during the premiere of an equally anticipated release. In Film marketing is done basically to bring the product to the eyes of maximum viewers. When a big budget movie assembling of the top stars in the Film Industry releases, the hype it creates prior to its release will ensure it gets a grand opening. Most importantly if it is declared a pre-release hit then product owners could use the film as a platform to market its product. Incase it is a product from the garment industry, then the lead actor could be shown wearing garments from that particular company, if it is automobiles the actors could be projected as using them through out the film. The idea is simple. Celebrities are trendsetters in terms of fashion and lifestyle that they project on screen. To have them endorse the products in a successful film where you have millions of viewers will make the commodity a household name and in the process boost up their sales. Other then In Film marketing other modes of marketing opts for the services of advertising agencies and public relation agencies, wherein the product to be launched is promoted by these organizations by reaching out to the general customer.
