The ScoreStream mobile app lets fans in the stands crowd source scores, photos and videos of their local teams while following
all the teams in their area in real time. The best of the best of this user-generated content from each local region will now be
featured regularly in movie theater lobbies around the country across NCM’s Lobby Entertainment Network (LEN) and also, when
sponsored by a local advertiser, on the big screen in a new Noovie Local content segment powered by ScoreStream in NCM’s
Noovie pre-show. Noovie leads audiences to what’s next in entertainment, with great content, commerce, and
interactive games on over 21,100 screens in over 1,700 theaters nationwide.
Area businesses will have the opportunity to be the exclusive sponsor of these Noovie Local – Powered By
ScoreStream sports highlight packages in their neighborhood theater, connecting with movie audiences and becoming the voice of
local sports in the community. The sports content will change monthly, and features year-round high school sports highlights, plus
high school, college and pro scores in real-time from across town and across the state.
“When we created our Noovie pre-show, movie audiences told us that great local content was one of the things they most
wanted to see, along with behind-the-scenes movie features and games,” said NCM Senior Vice President of Local Sales and Affiliate
Partnerships Stacie Tursi. “If there are two things that people are passionate about, it’s movies and sports. So, working with
ScoreStream to bring that combination to Noovie is a home run. When you think about it, some of the most beloved movies of
all times are about sports, and this is an amazing way for fans to give their teams and players the recognition they deserve up on
the big screen, supported by businesses in their community.”
“We couldn’t be more excited about our partnership with NCM,” said Derrick Oien, Founder and CEO of ScoreStream. “ScoreStream’s
SportFX video editing tools empower fans to showcase their teams and players in ways never before possible. This partnership will
delight fans and movie-goers alike with killer highlights of their local and state-wide teams, exclusively available from
ScoreStream.”
