I have been playing with my Twitter, not obsessively mind you. I don’t want to go blind or get hair on my palms.

Movie Website Design Trends
Movie Marketing Madness tipped us to a very extensive article in Smashing Magazine on current trends in Movie Website design.

How do you get people to know about your film? To want to see your film? For a film to work we have to get the word out well beyond the film community. Whatever the content of your film there is a community who has a direct relationship to it. Where do they live? What else are they talking about?
Why Filmmakers Need Twitter
Okay, I haven’t written that article yet. Maybe someone else has and I just haven’t looked for it. If you find it let me know, but I did find Why Studios Need Twitter (via Movie Marketing Madness) and Guidelines For Brands Using Twitter. Mash them up and filter it through your cinema-obsessed mind and see if it has a beat you can dance to.
