- Social media is more than a digital water cooler for TV and movies. The global conversation that takes place around events and the experiences people share based on what they watch teaches us about consumer preferences. More importantly, their activity influences behavior. Behavior counts for everything. Studying it is just the beginning of course. In order to understand and eventually steer behavior, we must translate activity into insights and in turn, translate insights into actionable strategies and programs.THR's Social Media Poll: How Facebook and Twitter Impact the Entertainment Industry MARCH 2012THR Hollywood reporter study and some feedback from Brian Solis a consultanthttp://www.briansolis.com/2012/05/music-film-tv-how-social-media-changed-the-entertainment-experience/

- Facebook is a social networking service and website launched in February 2004Entertainment Weekly included the site on its end-of-the-decade "best-of" list, saying, "How on earth did we stalk our exes, remember our co-workers' birthdays, bug our friends, and play a rousing game of Scrabulous before Facebook?”So let’s chat about how movie and tv studios are using facebook. It has become the anchor of all films and television shows. Different studios have different strategies. Some like to start early from production such as The Hobbit and other big films. Others like to start during the marketing windowWhat do you on Facebook with regard to brands?Join their pageView their contentParticipate in activities

- When you “Like” a movie or product they can send you feeds. The feeds are where you find out about the latest at that moment.
- Just to give you perspective, wanted to show you how many people can be influenced by “liking” movie and TV show pagesFor films and television the biggest in box office or tv ratings doesn’t necessarily translate to “likes. Example Gossip Girl might not be top rated but has a high number of “likes”
- NotesTwitter is a real-time information network that connects you to the latest stories, ideas, opinions and news about what you find interesting. Simply find the accounts you find most compelling and follow the conversations.At the heart of Twitter are small bursts of information called Tweets. Each Tweet is 140 characters long, but don’t let the small size fool you—you can discover a lot in a little space. You can see photos, videos and conversations directly in Tweets to get the whole story at a glance, and all in one place. It took Twitter three years, two months and one day to reach our first billion Tweets. Today, there are over a billion Tweets sent every three days. These Tweets represent conversations related to almost any topic imaginable.Twitter Best PracticesShare. Share photos and behind the scenes info about your business. Even better, give a glimpse of developing projects and events. Users come to Twitter to get and share the latest, so give it to them!Listen. Regularly monitor the comments about your company, brand, and products.Ask. Ask questions of your followers to glean valuable insights and show that you are listening.Respond. Respond to compliments and feedback in real timeReward. Tweet updates about special offers, discounts and time-sensitive deals.Demonstrate wider leadership and know-how. Reference articles and links about the bigger picture as it relates to your business.Champion your stakeholders. Retweet and reply publicly to great tweets posted by your followers and customers.Establish the right voice. Twitter users tend to prefer a direct, genuine, and of course, a likable tone from your business, but think about your voice as you Tweet. How do you want your business to appear to the Twitter community?
- Mention: Once you've signed up and chosen a Twitter username, you and others can mention an account in your Tweets by preceding it with the @ symbol, eg: "Glad your shipment arrived @janesmith!”Retweet: When you see a Tweet by another user that you want to share, click Retweet below it to forward it to your followers instantly.Message: If you want to privately Tweet to a particular user who's already following you, start your Tweet with DM or D to direct-message them, eg: "DM @joesmith234 what is your order number?”Hashtag: Users often prepend # to words in their Tweets to categorize them for others eg: "Check out our new products for the Fallhttp://t.co/link2 #fallsale" Think of hashtags as the theme of your Tweet.

- It was launched on June 28, 2011Google+ aims to make sharing on the web more like sharing in real life. Check out Circles, Messenger and Hangouts, just a few of the things we've been ...Circles, Games, Streams, Hangouts, photos and eventsBasically, Google+ is an amalgamation of several services we already use.

- PAID programsTo help launch the new Jesse Eisenberg movie 30 Minutes or Less, Columbia Pictures has partnered with social media site Foursquare to create an innovative program that encourages users to interact with the film online and in the real world. In the 30 Minutes badge program, users can follow the film, then check in to movie-themed places. The check-ins include pizza parlors, banks, food trucks, screenings, comic conventions, and movie theaters on opening weekend. You know, all the places you'd go anyway. Once users have unlocked the 30 Minutes badge, select movie theater may offer them promo items when they see the film. U.S. users who have unlocked the badge will be entered to win the 30 Minutes sweepstakes, with a grand prize of $3,000. Check out the details on Foursquare. Starting today, Lionsgate will use its Foursquare presence to provide followers with tips and specials — all tied in to the “bad ass” theme of the flick — in 11 different cities.The studio is hoping to aggressively push the film, set to be released on August 13, through Foursquare with the help of its location-sharing members. To do so, it has added a smattering of tips to Expendables-themed locales that followers can discover in their own cities. Propaganda Tattoo in San Diego, for example, includes a tip that reads, “Ask for Thad! The most bad ass tattoo artist in SD! Brought to you by THE EXPENDABLES opening August 13!”The deal lovers among us will likely appreciate the specials more than the tips. One such special rewards Santa Monica residents who check in at The Shack and say “Sly sent me” to the bartender with $2 off a draft beer. In total, there are five to 10 different specials being offered in 11 cities such as San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco and New York.While not completely unique, Lionsgate is certainly being adventuresome with its alternative promotional strategy. We’ve seen films like Valentine’s Day take a similar route, so it should be interesting to see if this tactic will catch on with more studios during the summer months.
- Breaking Bad – spoilers, discussions about episodes, character deep dives and many other types oflinks. Comments on spoilers very highUnsactioned ones for fan favorites like Hobbit and Hunger GamesUSA Network built buzz for the TV film “The Fall of Sam Axe” (a prequel to the hit show “Burn Notice”) by inviting fans to take part in a live Q&A with the film’s star Bruce Campbell via Reddit. Through Reddit’s “Ask Me Anything” feature, fans were able to ask Campbell questions for an entire day. The thread quickly became one of the most popular Q&A threads on Reddit to date, sparked conversations across the social landscape and drove 50K hits to the “Fall of Sam Axe” website.OBJECTIVE -- In April 2011, USA Network partnered with 360i to launch a promotion for “The Fall of Sam Axe,” a television film prequel to the current hit series “Burn Notice.” The core objectives were to increase buzz, fuel engagement and, ultimately, drive tune-in for the premiere on April 17.AUDIENCE -- The target audience for this special TV film prequel aligned with that of the popular series “Burn Notice,” which attracts a heavily male audience (ages 18-34). We also wanted to tap into the cult following of “Burn Notice” star, Bruce Campbell, who is well-known for his role in “The Evil Dead” (1981) among sci-fi & horror film aficionados.Armed with knowledge into USA Network’s target audience, and more specifically, the core demographic of “Burn Notice” viewers, 360i researched potential channels and communities that would align with the show’s unique audience. We identified Reddit, a rapidly growing niche social network with nearly 2 billion pageviews a month (source: Reddit), as the perfect platform on which to execute this special promotion.STRATEGY & EXECUTION -- Given Campbell’s cult hero status, we wanted to reach his fans in a way that played into their online habits AND allowed them to engage with his new film, “The Fall of Sam Axe,” ahead of its premiere.Our strategy was to leverage Reddit, an established niche and rapidly growing social platform to empower fans to engage in direct dialogue with Campbell. We selected Reddit due to the close alignment of the social network’s audience base and that of “Burn Notice” and Bruce Campbell (18-34 males who are tech early adopters). We used the Reddit platform to host a semi-real-time Q&A (called an AMA, or Ask Me Anything) and allow Campbell’s fans to ask him whatever questions they wanted -- for an entire day.The beauty of this was of course that the conversation took place within a hyper-social platform — so as more and more people asked questions, the buzz intensified. People began citing the AMA on Twitter, across other platforms and on various blogs and websites. The effect was a social echo chamber with unprecedented fan enthusiasm that provided real value to Campbell fans and raised awareness for “The Fall of Sam Axe,” not only with this audience, but with a larger group of people in the Reddit/social community as well.RESULTS -- Within 17 minutes of submitting the AMA, the Q&A thread had reached the front page on Reddit and within the hour it became the #1 article on Reddit homepage. In just 24 hours, more than 4,500 people had commented on the post, earning a Reddit submission score of 2,835. Bruce Campbell’s AMA is now the #3 all-time highest-scoring AMA on Reddit.The promotional links in the post that drove to the “Fall of Sam Axe” site on usanetwork.com generated nearly 50K hits to the site directly from Reddit. Subsequently, discussions about Bruce’s AMA exploded on Twitter earning 600 tweets and over 522K secondary impressions on Twitter alone. As for ratings, “The Fall of Sam Axe” averaged 3.6 million viewers — a solid showing during a competitive time slot.

- Age limit 13+ but many kids are using it because of the photo app‘Instagram is a free photo-sharingprogram and social network that was launched in October 2010. The service allows users to take a photo, apply a digital filter to it, and then share it with other Instagram users they are connected to on the social network as well as on a variety of social networking services.[3] Instagram currently has 80 million registered users.[4] A distinctive feature is that it confines photos to a square shape, similar to Kodak Instamatic and Polaroid images, in contrast to the 4:3 aspect ratio typically used by mobile device cameras.
