Horrorfest Promotion

[J.R. Hudson]

For this Fest we are going to try something a little different. We are going to allow the hype machine to come out. What does that mean ?

It mean's you can pimp and promote your film. There is a catch

Film's can only be promoted here at dvxuser inside your own unique threads. No external site(s) or link's are permitted (Unless a video or image host) Like the indiviual film discussion's, we will have the same for the Horrorfest films.

You can showcase storyboards, script segments, final score's or in progress, production still's, audition's, headshot's, behind the scene's video and making of specials, art-work and conceptual design, set dressing, location's and even One Sheet's (the Film's poster) but one thing you cannot do:

NO FOOTAGE FROM ACTUAL FILM CAN BE SHOWN UNTIL THE OFFICIAL FESTIVAL START.

Keep in mind, like all good film's, what you show can help or hurt you; giving away the plot point and secret may not be in your best interest or maybe hyping it too much may let some people down. Consider this an excercise is marketing and promotion for future project's, but

NO FILM FOOTAGE FROM THE ACTUAL FILM!

Th only Footy allowed is behind the scene's and interview type stuff. Last time said:

NO ACTUAL FOOTAGE FROM THE FILM IS ALLOWED UNTIL THE FESTIVAL PREMIERE

So can we show footage from our actual film?


Only kidding. Wow, this changes things. Should be interesting no doubt.

Now I have to add "Marketing Department" to my overall budget.

This will certainly be an interesting exercise.

[Daniel Skubal]

Cool idea.

[greeches]

Bravo, will make some fun reading/watching until the contest.....

[Edgen]

So.. Can we have screen shots? Like stills from the actual film?

[Mark Harris]

What numbskull would show footage from their entry before the contest??? Seems like you would just be shooting yourself in the foot...Did people do this in Hero-Fest????

[Brandon Rice]

Nice... wow, this is gunna be interesting.

[Edgen]

that's where It can be confusing though. But, that does clear it up a wee bit. Stills are OK, but moving "Stills" are bad.
