Online movie forums are where people post what they liked about a video, hated about a video, or what they want to see. A filmmaker can only benefit by being part of these communities. Be ready for members of forums to create negative comments, but additionally, there are members that post positive comments or offer helpful constructive criticism that can make your following movie better okhatrimaza. All you certainly can do as a filmmaker or movie producer is put your workout there and see what sort of responses originate from viewers.

Online movie forums thrive because it's a cool way for viewers becoming a movie critic from their computer and express their uncensored audience opinion. That is one of things I enjoy concerning the social medium. The Internet allows people to enjoy freedom of speech, even though it's pretty much posting of a movie. I trust the opinions of men and women that post in forums a lot more than paid movie critics. Most paid movie critics give attention to reviewing studio films, art house fare, or offbeat films with known Hollywood stars in them.

The open diversity of movies discussed in forums is amazing to me as an author, producer, and director. Members that like direct to video urban gangster movies have a location to create their comments. Fans of low budget horror movies have a home on the Internet to be heard. Online movie forums are an activity democracy for viewers and producers. Many smaller budget indie movies won't be reviewed by paid movie critics or get a first look from mainstream media outlets. The internet movie forum community gives indie movies made on small budgets a shot to be viewed, to loved, and hated. Every movie gets a reasonable shake to be reviewed. Film democracy lives!

In a movie democracy no filmmaker is safe from movie viewer salvos or roses being virtually thrown. I've read posts that begin by tearing apart a video until there is nothing left to attack. When not satisfied enough with bashing the movie a community member sometimes turns their wrath on the filmmaker by personally shredding them to pieces.

I had one online reviewer go way beyond not liking one of my movies. They personally attacked me over my face. No way I really could change that part of making a movie. I believe the line was, "See your face makes me sick." Not merely did the viewer hate one of my movies, they hated my face. Hell, I have not ever appeared in a video I've done in a cameo or acting role. That has been funny to me. It reminds of the story concerning the cowboy that catches an awful beating from another cowboy. The winning cowboy looks down at the losing cowboy asking if he still wants more. The losing cowboy fires back, "Are you crazy?

The only real place you haven't hit me yet is on underneath of my feet." I've been that losing cowboy on more than a few posts and reviews. Forums can resemble a rowdy old west saloon. That's what makes them fun.

Members of forums post sharp and witty comments I enjoy reading, even when it happens one of my movies is getting flamed. A filmmaker that has thin skin should stay out of forums. It's like when professional athletes are heckled and cursed at by fans. The difference is that during making a movie you will see no heckling or cursing fond of you while you're taking care of set. That's if you invite a Guy Terrifico personality friend to the set to watch.

To participate an on line movie forum you'll need to submit a valid email before to be able to post comments. Once that step is performed take a straightforward method of marketing and promoting your film on forums. Movie buffs can see through outrageous hype and BS. There's no doubt the goal of posting information on your own movie in a community would be to generate interest for your movie, but unless your movie is studio backed avoid claims like "This years best action movie" etc.

I'm not just a mind reader, but maybe you're thinking right now what you should post. Post the title of your movie, tagline, artwork, short synopsis, and connect to your movie site. Let viewers know what you are putting out there for them to see. Get the online buzz going like Presidente shots for your movie. See what viewers have to state about your movie. Should they attack your face or another thing like me, then keep it moving. This indie filmmaker Sid Kali typing SMASH CUT:
