BAM Cinemas, 2023-Present  


150,000 people come see movies at BAM
365 days a year...


Role: Copywriter


and it’s my job to write about all of it!



Problem

Post-COVID, people have been slow to come back to the movies. To bounce back from the pandemic slump, we needed to remind our market that great cinema is not just something to consume at home but a place-based community to be activelely a part of.

Solution

Convey that the BAMfilm subrand embodies elevated taste but is not a luxury good. Neither exclusive nor erudite, BAMfilm is for everyone with a penchant for creative adventure.



Results

  • 105% revenue growth from 2021 to 2024
  • 63% open rate for weekly newsletter
  • Increased exclusive collaborations with major brands like A24, Mubi, Neon, and New York Film Festival
