Connect through Twitter

I started my Twitter profile CORKY242 just for fun a few months ago, to try it out. After a while I realized that there are a lot of independent filmmakers and I started to search for information that could be interesting for indie filmmakers.

Meanwhile I gave birth to the "Indie Film Follow Friday"(#IFFF) and "Film Follow Friday"(#FFF) on Twitter to make it easier to find filmmaking people there and to connect to each other.
(What is "Follow Friday" and how does it work? Mashable has a good and short explanation, read it here: http://mashable.com/followfri/)

Unfortunately the German film industry/filmmakers are poorly represented here. Hopefully this will change soon!

You can also add yourself to the WeFollow directory, I already did: corky242.


"FOLLOW FRIDAY #FF"

I would like to mention some of those I'm following on Twitter and who normally appear in my #FF #IFFF and #FFF :

  6. Many thanks for this again. This out of the blue network that I’ve discovered (only recently) and have been a part of (and welcomed into) has been quite simply an amazing experience. It honestly gets very isolating as a director (which is something somebody told me once and the guy was right)...but when we talk about it all, it helps...

    ...I keep working away at everything...recently have been focused on my website again...to really try hard and capture new peoples attention, because I suddenly realised that new visitors arrive at the first page and there’s only perhaps a brief window (a moment to get their attention)...so we really gotto be very careful about that (which I wasn’t) and show what you are about in one or two images for them to grasp it...all of this may sound silly but I was so focused on making the films that I forgot.
