The deal provides Shout! Studios with access to Comscore’s OnDemand Essentials®, Comscore’s currency measurement service for VOD, to enable them to better understand the consumption of their theatrical video on demand titles. This is particularly relevant during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, as Comscore research has found significant increases in video on demand transactions.

“As we grow our distribution and production capabilities, and develop new content offerings across multiple platforms, it’s critical that we have a sophisticated and granular understanding of audience engagement, and we’re looking forward to getting those insights from Comscore,” said Dave McIntosh, Senior Vice President of Content Licensing & Strategy, Shout! Studios.
