After creating our Facebook page, I decided to upload our animatic and we contacted a few of our friends/relatives to watch it and let us know what they think. After a few minutes we had already gained our first comment, which was both helpful and exciting, due to the fact that I felt our film was really beginning to take shape. It was useful for us to see that our film was already creating buzz/hype over social media despite the fact that this is on an extremely small scale in comparison to the professional companies who distribute films. It is important to us that we follow many of the normal steps that a 'properly produced' film would take and every film/production/distribution company working nowadays, due to the introduction of Web 2.0 uses social media to further extend the excitement around their particular film. I will most likely post a few more pictures of peoples comments/likes as they view and write them in the near future.
I also decided to add a few stills from the storyboard to my Instagram page in order to gain likes and interest in the trailer from my followers:
The amount of people viewing our animatic on Youtube is also steadily on the rise, which is a good sign due to the fact that we want to make our film/trailer accessible to everyone on social media.
