We're On Facebook How Can You Resist 800,000,000 Fans

Oct. 18, 2011 - PRLog -- The Green Screen International Film Festival Society announces that they are now on Facebook, www.facebook.com/greeenscreenfilmfest  “With over 800,000,000 million users and a growing concerned community, Facebook seemed like a natural place for us to spread our mission, ‘to inspire, educate and entertain’” said a society spokesperson.

Carrie Hunter, the Executive Administrator advised that it was determined that using a Facebook page to promote their First Film Festival would provide a platform where they could interact and engage with other concerned like-minded persons in the Facebook community, and their local community.

The considerable advantage that the society enjoys as a result of their presence on Facebook is that their Sweepstakes is in a perfect position to go viral, as the Facebook platform encourages its 800  hundred millions users to share with their friends and acquaintances and facilitates that sharing.  In addition, Facebook’s many apps enable the society to set up and operate a Sweepstakes with great ease.  Being able to use the same application as Wildfire’s other customers that range from some of the world's most recognized brands including Amazon, Electronic Arts, Target and Gatorade as well as your Mom and Pop shops gives the Green Screen Board the comfort of knowing that they are dealing with a highly professional and trusted supplier.

Another advantage for a Film festival is the ease with which Facebook can be connected to YouTube and the Society has taken advantage of that connectivity to create their own Youtube channel, where their Facebook and internet supporters can enjoy several clips from some of the Films who entered the Festival’s competition.  

Demonstrating its understanding of the burgeoning world of social media and its reach, the society has also set up a Twitter account and you are encouraged to follow them on twitter @greenfilmsfest  As the winners of this year’s festival are announced you will learn about it first on Twitter and on Facebook.
