Movie Selection

There are three elements to outdoor cinema:  the outdoors, the social experience and THE MOVIE. Choosing the right movie for your audience is important to the success of your event.

So which movie will you choose? Comedy, Drama, Action, Blockbuster, Classic, Documentary, Independent Film? It’s all up to you.

Thousands of movies are available. “The Internet Movie Database” at www.imdb.com is a great place to start your search.  Be aware that some studios, such as Disney, have restrictions on the use of their films in outdoor settings.  During 2009 Disney films can be scheduled for outdoor showings from April 30 - May 28 and August 15 - September 30.

We can help you choose films that have the widest appeal for your target audience.  Here is a link to the Top 25 Most Requested Family Movie Titles for this year.  If you want to choose a classic movie from the past, here is the link to the Top 50 All-Time Family Favorites.

If you are hosting your own family outdoor movie night on your property, you won’t need a public viewing license.  Most of our clients need larger venues and do need to acquire the license.  We cannot purchase the license for you but we will show you exactly how to obtain it. It is a very simple process.
