Art Film Theater Business Plan

The Miami Beach Cinematheque website (www.mbcinema.com)  will be the virtual business card and portfolio for the company, as well as its online “home”.  The website will have strategic directional links at all pages to lead to sales, whether online or later on-site. The initial page is currently on the Web, with the other pages in development.

The concept and design of the website will be representative of the quality of design seen at the Cinematheque.

The website will have links to other sites, such as the MBIFF site, www.miamibeachfilmfestival.com. This site will be pointed to initiate at www.mbcinema.com first so visitors are introduced to the “home” of MBFS first, and then to programming and special events.

Email will be available as info@mbcinema.com for correspondence related to the Cinematheque, and info@miamibeachfilmfestival.com for correspondence related to MBIFF. 

Online ticket sales and special program schedules will be available through the website, with software set up for that purpose.

Each page will have an option to link to a page that sells merchandise and services.

The design aspects of the websites are currently in development with the help of Creative Web Services, with design by Arturo Diaz Olmos for JR International Media . The website basic pages are being revealed soon as a preview of things to come. 

(see below examples of text information for the www.mbcinema.com website pages. Design is in development. Coming soon…the www.miamibeachfilmfestival.com  web design!)
