WebtraffIQ and Redberry Digital to Measure Film Releases

22 September 2005, London, UK

Web Analytics Agency WebtraffIQ and Digital Creative Agency Redberry Come Together to Measure Film Releases

——Begins——

Web analytics agency WebtraffIQ http://www.webtraffiq.com and digital creative agency Redberry Digital http://www.redberrydigital.com have partnered for entertainment sectors.

The relationship developed after WebtraffIQ monitored the performance of the website and viral game developed by Redberry for the movie The Interpreter http://www.interpreterthemovie.com/, which was released earlier this year.

WebtraffIQ has been measuring above, below and through-the-line advertising and marketing since 2003, in addition to digital platforms. WebtraffIQ possesses integrated campaign experience with financial (esure http://www.esure.com) and education (City & Guilds’ Time to Learn http://www.timetolearn.org.uk) sectors across print, radio and television, with understanding of cross-medium tracking continuing to grow.

This knowledge has increased even more so, especially over the last six-months with the agency working on more theatrical (film) campaigns, with the most recent The Interpreter http://www.interpreterthemovie.com by Redberry Digital and Ong-Bak http://www.ong-bak.co.uk via design and development agency Egovision http://www.egovision.com.

Simon Redgate, Director at Redberry Digital explains, “With the success of the reporting and analysis WebtraffIQ provided for The Interpreter movie site, we are convinced that the products and services they deliver are what we need to measure campaigns of this nature. The current release Pride and Prejudice http://www.yahoo.co.uk/prideandprejudice and Working Title Films http://www.workingtitlefilms.com website are also measured with WebtraffIQ.

The relationship works for us because we are able to present our clients a straightforward package of statistics that are easy to understand and summarise. We are very pleased with the expertise provided by WebtraffIQ and expect to continue introducing them to our clients on future projects”.

“Web analytics is increasingly being used to monitor and measure across various channels whether it is direct or digital promotions, which is ideal for entertainment and film clients, due to the flexible mediums that their campaigns lend themselves to. Our experience with other sectors has been useful in applying what is required for theatrical and DVD releases for clients that wish to drill down and even compare what are the most effective means for them to market their products," concludes Marcos Richardson, European Director at WebtraffIQ.
