By: Warner Bros. This innovative engagement model bridges the digital and physical worlds by enabling users to take and share photos with virtual characters from various Hollywood blockbusters. This strategy goes far beyond the typical Likes, Re-tweets and social media comments that are passively generated by movie fans and their friends throughout their day. Every branded photo that is shared by an individual becomes a user generated ad that is designed and optimized for the social media ecosystem. On Facebook, photos receive 7x the number of comments, likes, and shares versus other content like videos and status updated. By leveraging GoldRun's photo-driven engagement platform, film studios are now able to produce high impact marketing campaigns that drive both ticket sales and DVD sales. Warner Bros. is the third major film studio that GoldRun has worked with to create high impact photo-sharing campaigns. GoldRun has also launched successful initiatives with 20th Century Fox for Ice Age: Continental Drift, and Sony Pictures for The Smurfs. GoldRun's efforts with the film studios have focused on marketing efforts for both the theatrical launches and home entertainment DVD releases. GoldRun is proud to announce that is has an aggressive and expansive slate of film releases in 2013 that GoldRun's technologies will be used for.
