Shazam and SoundHound Make Beautiful Phone Together at The Movies

In a move that will have avid moviegoers pulling their multicolored hair out at the root, one movie theater advertising company is now going to encourage people to turn their phones on when they sit down.

I know, right?

Musical discovery apps Shazam and SoundHound have partnered with National CineMedia and Screenvision (which merged with NCM earlier this year) to encourage the use of second screen advertising before the trailers begin. The goal is to allow movie advertisers to tie audio-recognition features into preshow promotions on consumers’ devices.

Just what you wanted.

Saatchi & Saatchi NY Introduces Grumpy Cat to Buzz

Saatchi & Saatchi New York introduces Internet phenomenon Grumpy Cat to Honey Nut Cheerios in a new 30-second broadcast spot for the brand designed to appeal to younger audiences.

For the spot, entitled simply “Buzz Meets Grumpy Cat,” Saatchi & Saatchi teamed up with California-based production company Backyard and director Rob Pritts. If you count yourself among Grumpy Cat’s legions of fans, you’ll probably just be happy to see him make an appearance here. Otherwise, there’s not a lot going on beyond “Oh, you’re that Grumpy Cat,” as Buzz tries to make the feline crack a smile. His strategy consists entirely of talking about how much people like Honey Nut Cheerios.

Established brand + established meme = eyeballs.
