My Top Three: Filmmakers on Twitter

Filmmaking is no easy feat. From script to screen, there’s a million and one things filmmakers must do to be successful. But something that many moviegoers overlook is the importance of garnering a fanbase for more than just the film itself. Having an authentic and entertaining social media presence is key to building a relationship with the audience. It’s a big part of what keeps people coming back for more from their favorite filmmakers. Here are three of the most successful twitter presences in the film industry.
