Our

market,
On-Screen
advertising
offers

individuals
a
unique
opportunity
to
promote

Advertising
on
the

to
the
many
people
who
patronise
the Brookside Theatre and understand the importance of suppoting local business.
Prior
to
each
performance
your
advertisement
can
be
seen
by
our
patrons
on
our
large
screen
in
the
theatre
foyer
(27"w
x
15"d)
-
also
shown
during
the
interval
and

each
event
-

5"d
/
2000

On-Screen
Advertising
is
automatically
started
on

screens
an
hour
before

live
performance,
as
soon

the
public.
The

auditorium
seats
140
people
and
plays,
on
average,
20

number
increases

of
20
advertisements

30
seconds
at
time
and
circulates
an
average
of
6
times
per
1
hour
sequence.
With

to
stimulate
conversation
among
audiences before the start of any performance.

additional
charge,

produce
effective
and
eye-catching
artwork
for
you
as
long
as
all
text/logos
etc.
are
provided
in
the
appropriate
format.
This
service
will
incur
an
additional
cost
of
£30
per
advertisement.
We
will
work on your artwork and e-mail you a design for approval within two weeks.
If
providing
your
own
artwork,
please
ensure
that
your
advertisement
is
supplied
camera-ready
in
the
exact
dimensions
specified.
All
supplied
artwork
must
be
compatible
with
Adobe
Photoshop;
PDF,
JPG,
TIFF,
or
PSD
are
preferred
formats,
with
a
minimum
resolution

With

not
placed
too
close
to
the
edge
of
the
advertisement.
Always
use
high
resolution
images
and
text
in
your
design. It may look fine of a computer monitor but a low resolution design may become blurry on screen.
