Marketing And Movie Trailers – The Proposal
Posted by: | Comments
OK, time for another look at a movie trailer.
I was going to feature “Public Enemies”…
…but I didn’t want you to think that I only ever watch action and Sci-Fi movies!
So, I’ve selected the rom-com “The Proposal”. It’s had a strong box office opening and has been a little more successful than perhaps expected.

And, despite Michael Jackson’s unusual lifestyle and often questionable behaviour, there’s no doubt he was a giant in the world of pop music…

OK, first up, apologies for the lack of posting this week. I’ve been “on site” with a client and don’t quite have the road warrior thing down pat just yet (plus I was very busy!).
However, got a lot to catch up on including some more movie trailer reviews, news on some great new books on direct response marketing…
…plus some observations on recent online marketing campaign…
…and maybe some thoughts about Michael Jackson.
Today, I want to resume our look at Twitter and I’m going to point you towards an excellent piece…

Went to see the “Terminator Salvation” movie the other day…
…so I’ll take the opportunity to make a few comments about the movie and also continue the series of taking a look at the trailer to see if we can get some tips for marketing videos.
What I’m going to do when looking at trailers in future is use the framework of a truncated “A-I-D-A” formula…
