With the release of Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley on July 3rd on Netflix, I thought it would be a perfect time to share when Cya Live hosted a celebrity movie watch party where Kevin Smith watched the original Beverly Hills Cop from 1984 with his fans and was able to interact and engage with his fans in an immersive way through video chat and text chat while watching Beverly Hills Cop with his fans. This celebrity movie watch party was the 3rd celebrity movie watch party Kevin Smith hosted on Cya Live along with hosting a celebrity movie watch party where he watched the classic 1976 movie The Bad News Bears with his fans. This video of Kevin Smith watching the original Beverly Hills Cop from 1984 with his fans and being able to interact and engage in an immersive way with this fans while watching a movie highlights how Cya Live is at the forefront as an over-the-top (OTT) platform integrating fan engagement, social commerce and social media all-in-one platform and how Cya Live is making virtual interaction real when it comes to hosting celebrity movie watch parties on Cya Live. https://lnkd.in/gD7RmRXj #ott #overthetop #celebrities #watchparty #movieparty #kevinsmith #beverlyhillscop #eddiemurphy #stream #engage #monetize #sports #entertainment #watchtogether #fanengagement #socialcommerce #socialmedia #integration #broadcasting #streamingservices #content #internet #subscriptions #revenuestreams #newrevenue #collaboration #engagement #transactions #merch #youtube #twitch #netflix #amazon #digital #interactive #immersive #telecommunications #qanda #panel #realtime #videochat #textchat #influencers #creators #creatoreconomy #entertainmenttechnology #allinone #platform #genz #genzmarketing #influencermarketing #entertainmentmarketing #brands #brandengagement #sponsors #futureofentertainment #netflix #paramountpictures #paramountarchives #throwback #original #teaser #preview #promotion

3 ways to explain this quote from Kody R. Mommaerts, MBA ring announcer for BOXXER and Sky Sports Online and COO of Sports Thread Inc. : 1. Independent Revenue Streams Each match generates unique income from ticket sales, pay-per-view, sponsorships, and merch. Every fight is a business venture that lives or dies on promotion, demand, and audience engagement. 2. High-Stakes Marketing & Promotion Like a product launch, every fight relies on strategy and media buzz. Promoters and fighters go all-in on marketing, ads, and media to hit max reach and profits. 3. Risk & Investment Each fight requires investment - financial and reputational - for fighters, trainers, promoters, and broadcasters. Wins and losses can make or break future earnings and career paths, making every match a high-stakes business decision. EP352 out now: https://lnkd.in/dKXpvyNC

All Hail Jake Paul. Or perhaps not... I know, I know, in this day and age we need hyperbole and extreme opinions to get cut through, but for once maybe it's just unnecessary. I would implore anyone in the Sports industry to watch the event, learn from it, and understand (ask better people than me) why Jake Paul is able to achieve these remarkable ratings BUT don't overdo it. Sometimes we can really just overthink things! Exhibition events have been happening for decades, yes there is more attention now but this is not new. Also pivoting your strategy to mimic a one-off event is a mistake. One little nugget for you on this...the story in this event is as old as the bible itself . Good vs Evil (pick which side is which). Listen, learn, implement, move on.

Award season is officially upon us! BMF has a long history of working in the #entertainment & streaming space over the last 20 years. Our work in entertainment led us to open our #LA office, now celebrating its 10th anniversary. As we look at the advancement of media consumption, it’s clear that the definition of entertainment is ever-evolving with social media platforms. Influencers & content creators are now entertainers in their own right, with over 150+ million US-based users actively watching TikTok each month, taking at least an hour of their day to do so. In combination with other social media platforms, the average American spends 2.5 hours consuming social content, which is equivalent to streaming eight sitcom episodes, two episodes of a drama series, or watching a feature film – every single day. To keep you up to speed on the ever-evolving entertainment & media landscape, in this edition of #ThePulse we’re highlighting the creators changing the game on their platform to celebrate and acknowledge the diverse array of entertainment in our modern age.
