Filmmakers: Want Attention? Build a Wesbite!
If you have a film, the cornerstone of your marketing campaign is the film's website! A few weeks ago, the Podcast with Paul DeNegris emphasized how useful his website for THE FALLS was in his marketing and distribution effort. Last week, I wrote about the DV horror flick ROAD CLOSED that was shot in New Mexico and produced by my friend, Bob Lewis. Their site is up and active at this very early stage in the process.
This weekend I'll be doing a podcast with Wisconsin writer/producer Jim Meyers on his latest film HER MINOR THING. They have an excellent site for their film. I'm looking forward to the podcast. Be sure to catch it on Sunday!
Eugene Hernandez (eugonline) recommends, "If you have a film screening on the festival circuit, then it is essential to build a website to promote the movie. Once you hit the festivals, your film is in distribution so it's important to have a site where you can build awareness for it. [blogs.indieWIRE.com: Independent Film]
