Experimental Advertising Opportunity by ina
Advertise *In* The Set of a SL Shakespeare Company ProductionDear Advertiser, The SL Shakespeare Company's exciting Fall Season 2008 is upon us, so we're offering you a chance at a unique, innovative, and interactive advertising opportunity. We open our season with our first production of a modern play, and your brand can add to the art of the custom-designed set and performance. We're offering advertisers the opportunity to display their brand "inside" the set itself, during the play, offering advertisers both art and maximum, attentive exposure! Our season opens with M. Dedrian's One's A Pawn of Time, a clever but light one-act play about relationship drama that may arise through hasty time travel. The temporal paradox is bound to intrigue and spawn discussions, and the dialogue amuses. A newspaper prop plays both a major and eye-catching role in this play. The modern set also allows for the natural presence of magazines and posters. The entire set features custom created textures, and these decorations that could potentially feature your brand deserve no less. =====Special Introductory Pricing (September 2008): Single Newspaper Prop - This will be our most visible and highly innovative prop, available for a flat rate of L$100,000 per public show. Limited supply - inquire ASAP. If you're a publication, this could be a realistic-looking newspaper custom created from your content. If you're a creator or other business, the newspaper could feature headlines on particular products. (For example!) Magazines in the Set - Your brand will be displayed via a magazine cover along with several other magazines as part of the set in one of 3 ways per public show:* L$5,000 for an "closed-book" front cover (or back cover) unscripted decoration piece based on your magazine L$10,000 for a "face-down open-book" front and back cover unscripted decoration piece based on your magazine L$12,000 for a scripted decoration piece based on your magazine, that also serves as a magazine dispenser. Or, for the public show series (at least 4 shows)* L$20,000 for an "closed-book" front cover (or back cover) unscripted decoration piece based on your magazine L$30,000 for a "face-down open-book" front and back cover unscripted decoration piece based on your magazine L$35,000 for a scripted decoration piece based on your magazine, that also serves as a magazine dispenser. Posters on Wall* - Your brand will be displayed via a poster. Where possible, we will create a "rock band" poster of your brand (or something similar) to make it look seamless with the room. But, we are open to other ideas. These start at L$75,000 per show series for a poster on a side wall. *Touch to dispense landmark is provided free of charge on all offers; all order comes with complimentary graphics design. Touch to IM/load website is an additional L$5000 If you place your order before 9/7, we'll throw in an extra appearance in our paid shows. Each show is a solid one-act performance running for about 45 minutes, with introduction. Each newspaper order comes with a complimentary custom design that retains your logo, but blends your brand seamlessly into the aforementioned prop. Magazine and poster orders can choose from select locations. Touch to dispense landmark is provided free of charge on all offers. Our theatre is located in the confluence of 4 island simulators allowing for up to 400 avatars to be present simultaneously. Many of them will take photo snapshots of the performance and set, and some may create fan machinima video's. There's a good chance that your brand might naturally be seen and immortalized into art in these indirect exposure. Of course, you're free to take your own photography and fan machinima video's per the terms dispensed at the production. Thus, we're projecting passive exposure per live show to be over 1000 active Second Life residents and Internet users, and active exposure per live show to be over 5000.
