I have used
Twitter in two capacities whilst making my film opening, first as a
research tool and, second, as a distribution tool for my film. As a research tool, Twitter is valuable as it allows you to access a
diverse genre of
social groups, companies and people. It connects you as a brand, company or person to the people of our world. By doing this it gives people that don't have a voice in decision making a voice. It allows you to receive audience and customer feed back to produce something that will not only be successful but athletically pleasing as well. As a form of
distribution, Twitter excels thanks to the interactivity of
web 2.0 and the way fans can re-tweet my posts, creating viral marketing. For example you can receive new information quickly. It's an amazing human search engine that harnesses the crowd. You'll follow all sorts of
movers and shakers. You can also use the hashtag to follow specific threads. You are also able to start a conversation with strangers as well as friends and share fresh ideas when you're thinking about them. I personally really enjoy the quick share-ability of the
social media page.
