LSC Slide Advertising

For almost 50 years, the MIT Lecture Series Committee has been presenting first-run and classic movies to the MIT Community on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings. Take advantage of LSC's unique ability to present information to an audience of over 900 students each weekend with our inexpensive and easy slide advertising program.

Our advertisers range from corporations seeking the best graduates in the country to small MIT groups wishing to inexpensively advertise their upcoming event. We work closely with all our advertisers to ensure that their experience with advertising at LSC is superior. We can create a slide from almost any computer file or printed submission such as flyers, signs, or small posters, and transform your artwork into a beautiful full-color slide. Your slide then will be presented before the audience at each of our movies just before showtime to maximize your advertisement's effectiveness.

To find out more about our slide offerings read the following pages:

You can submit your design in electronic format to lsc-slides@mit.edu. We ask you to please try to use PNG, TIFF, GIF, or JPEG format, with our preference being in that order. Also, please use at least a 150dpi resolution (remember, the image is blown up to over 30' diagonal!) and have the image be in landscape mode with a size of 10" x 6.66".

You can also submit a pre-made 35mm slide or source materials on paper to our office:

MIT Lecture Series Committee
84 Massachusetts Ave, Room W20-469
P.O. Box 397007
Cambridge, MA 02139

Slides turned in after 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday before the first day the slide is to be shown will incur a late fee of $25. Pre-made slides are due at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday before the weekend of showing. Note that special deadlines may apply at the beginning and end of term; call for details on advertising at those special events.
