Shazam®, the world’s leading mobile discovery company, and Twentieth Century Fox have teamed up to launch the first movie promotion campaign that leverages Shazam for TV to engage fans. Using the Shazam smartphone app, you can access exclusive content from the new chapter in the blockbuster Alvin and the Chipmunks movie franchise, Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked, including:
• A limited-time free download of the film’s hit single, “Vacation,” performed by
Alvin and the Chipmunks

• Additional clips from the movie
• A link to buy the first two Alvin and the Chipmunk movies on Blu-ray or DVD from
Amazon.com
• A link to purchase tickets to Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked
These Shazam/Chipwrecked uses will live on in your Tag List, providing access to the
extras you can “snack on” anytime and anywhere, so you can engage with the movie even
when you aren’t near a television. Additionally, with the Shazam Friends feature, you can
share your interest in Chipwrecked with your friends on Facebook.
“We are excited to announce the launch of the first Shazam-enabled movie promotion
working with Twentieth Century Fox and Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked,” said
David Jones, Shazam’s Executive Vice President, Marketing. “With Shazam for TV now
being used for movie commercials on TV, fans have a fun, fast new way to learn and get
more about movies they are interested in, see extended trailers and download content,
such as songs, from the movie. Plus, it’s an easy way to buy movie tickets.”
“It’s incredibly exciting to be the first studio to incorporate an interactive mobile
strategy using the Shazam App to promote Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked,” said
Ira Rubenstein, EVP Domestic Theater Marketing, Twentieth Century Fox. “Shazam gives
us the opportunity to promote the movie through traditional marketing channels, as well
as engage fans on mobile devices.”
The campaign runs today through end of December and the movie opens on December
16th.
With more than 165 million people using the service, Shazam is quickly becoming an
integral part of the marketing mix for television shows, brands and now production
companies around the globe who want to offer viewers a fun and engaging way to interact
with their programs, commercials or movie promotions. When people use Shazam when
