     New Zealand Cinema Chains Deploy First Digital
                   Signage Network
SignActive Limited, Auckland, NZ: SignActive Limited, a Scala Certified
Partner, rolls out New Zealand’s first cinema digital signage installation within
Berkeley Cinemas and their joint venture partner Reading Cinemas.

SignActive initially began discussing the concept of a digital signage network
with Berkeley Cinemas almost three years ago. While talks were underway
Berkeley Cinemas formulated plans for a flagship cinema that was due to open
in December 2004. One of the key drivers for the project was to use plasma
screens to display movie times, trailers, cinema information and advertising.
Berkeley Cinemas also wanted a cutting edge cinema environment that
                                                                                     Movie Previews
enhanced the movie-going experience.

Both impressive and informative this new technology has already improved the
movie-going experience and enhanced ticket & candy sales. The combination
of 42” and 50” plasma screens as well as a suspended “floating” screen driven
by a projector provides relevant up to date content such as movie session
times and prices, entertainment with movie trailers and previews plus internal
and external advertising.

    Movie Titles -- (graphics) created monthly and sent to the players via
     the network
    Movie Times -- (text) automatically changed and updated from the
     cinema database
    Movie Ratings -- (graphics) automatically taken from a database stored
     on each player
    Movie Trailers -- (video) monthly encoded movie trailers sent out to
     each player over the network
    Cinema Information -- (graphics) monthly creation of cinema
     backgrounds and cinema specific information for movie trailers                    Movie Listings
    Advertising -- (graphics and video) composed of a limited number of
     advertisers at present, representing an area for future growth
    Scrolling Ticker -- (text) file managed and updated by each cinema
     manager to display site specific information

The infrastructure, consisting of the software, computers and display screens, is
owned by Berkeley Cinemas and Reading Cinemas and because the installation
has to be extremely reliable SignActive is contracted to manage the network
connection, create and update content, and remotely monitor the players and
displays.

Using a custom written software interface developed by SignActive that
collaborates between Scala InfoChannel®, the world’s leading digital software
platform and the existing Vista cinema software platform, live, real-time
content, including movie names, movie times and movie ratings, is dynamically
generated directly from the cinema database for viewing on the displays. All
the creative content including movie title images and third party advertising
is sent via a private network to multiple cinema locations from SignActive’s
head office in Auckland, New Zealand. In addition, each cinema manager also          Ticket Information
has the capability to change a scrolling message ticker on the displays for any
on-site management updates. While people are waiting they are entertained
with movie trailers and a “cinema status” screen that is constantly refreshed to
show the status of each theatre in the complex.

“Because of the extensibility of the Scala InfoChannel® platform we were able
to integrate database information and the Vista software system into a custom
cinema experience unique in New Zealand”, says Glenn Anderson, principal at
SignActive Limited.
                                                                                   Concessions
“Our new digital signage system is much more functional and definitely more in
line with the look and feel of the cinema. People just love the new technology
and the customer feedback has been all positive”, said Andy Fordham, cinema
complex manager for Berkeley Cinemas Botany Downs.

The next stage of the project will include an ongoing roll out to other
Berkeley Cinemas and Reading Cinemas locations and further enhancements
to the information shown on the displays. As the number of sites increases
it is expected that more third-party advertisers will be interested in taking
advantage of this new medium to communicate with prospective customers
in the cinema foyers.
