E4 TV Promo:
E4 shows a range of movies on Monday nights. Some are good. Some are bad. All of them are guilty pleasures.
As a minimum the work needs to be able to be broadcast as a 30-second promo and as a short sting lasting 5-seconds going into and out of ad breaks during the film. The only limitation is that it needs to incorporate the E4 logo.
Target Audience:
E4’s audience are young and savvy. They come to E4 for a good dose of escapist entertainment. Some of it is brand defining, high quality and innovative – shows like Dead Set, Skins and The Inbetweeners, whilst some of it is good fodder for when you want to chill out – a classic episode of Friends anyone? E4’s viewers have a strong relationship with the channel but increasingly spend their time media stacking – watching TV whilst texting, or hanging out
on social networks. It is harder and harder to get viewers’ attention.
Background:
E4 launched in a blaze of glory in 2001. Ali G fronted the marketing campaign for the launch, embodying the channel’s irreverent attitude. Although launched as ‘The new entertainment channel from Channel 4’, it was in effect ‘Channel 4 without the boring bits’. It is now the no.1 multi-channel station targeting 16-34 yr olds, regularly beating BBC 2 and FIVE.
In the past, E4 has successfully created a range of sub-brands on the channel. The most famous examples are Big Thursday (when E4 showed brand new Friends and ER), Second Chance Sunday (a chance to see flagship US premiers for the second time), and the 9pm strand – It’s a nine thing.
