Light Up Necklaces Help Promote Red Doors Movie at the 2005 Tribeca Film Festival Awards

June 13, 2005 -- Jane Chen (Producer) of the Red Doors Movie stated, "The necklaces have been a huge hit. Several people have offered to buy them. They are great at parties and at screenings - the red glow looks really cool in a dark room. Everybody asks about them when they see them so it's a great entre into talking about the film".

Not only has A&R Designs worked with the promotion of the Red Doors Movie but they have worked with Tribeca Film Festival for last year's 2004 festival awards. Red Doors tells the story of the Wongs, a bizarrely dysfunctional Chinese-American family living in the New York suburbs. Ed Wong (Tzi Ma) has just retired and plots to escape his mundane life. However, the tumultuous, madcap lives of his three rebellious daughters change his plans. From the beginning A&R Designs took this marketing project to a whole new level by creating a marketable product that the public would buy into based on key elements surrounding the Red Doors Movie.

The Movie & Entertainment Industry relies on ad specialty companies like A&R Designs to help generate sales, awareness, create interest and promote a theme to achieve their marketing objectives. Behind every success, A&R Designs has always been the front runner when it comes to developing and creating a marketable promotional product for every type of special event. There is no doubt that A&R Designs is truly a company that knows how to get the job done when it comes to marketing.
