On August 14th, 2008, President of Passion River Films, Allen Chou, will be teaching a workshop to filmmakers about movie marketing on the internet without spending a dime.
From 5:30pm-8:30pm all filmmakers, directors, writers and producers are welcome to join Allen Chou at the Telephone Bar of NY, NY. This class is an opportunity for curious filmmakers to learn how to create internet buzz and word of mouth for their films without spending any money on advertising. The workshop will help increase DVD sales, awareness of a film and drive traffic to a website. Allen Chou is the president and founder of Passion River Films. The company specializes in distributing unique documentary DVDs, foreign movies, independent films and special interest titles to retail stores and libraries worldwide. They also book films and talent for public performances on college campuses across the country. This new seminar will help spread his knowledge to aspiring and successful filmmakers in the area.
The three hour movie marketing seminar will include important information on internet research that all filmmakers, producers, writers, and directors should know. This includes how one can perform keyword research in order to find websites that can promote a film. The class will also teach the top four social media and social networking websites that will generate awareness of a DVD while creating traffic to a site. Filmmakers will also learn how to optimize their own websites so that they can be found in Google, Yahoo, MSN and other search engine sites. Finally, Allen Chou will teach on-line publicity. All of these methods are key when trying to advertise and sell a DVD in this film distribution class.
The average internet marketing consultants can charge anywhere from $500 to $1000 for consultant fees and internet marketing companies charge $3,000 to $10,000 for a three month campaign. Instead of paying thousands of dollars for consultants and companies anyone creating, producing, marketing or distributing a film can now learn how to do it themselves and pay nothing. Filmmakers can now increase DVD sales and awareness of their movie and website for free through this workshop.
