USES OF NEW MEDIA TECHNOLOGY
NEW MEDIA TECHNOLOGY SUMMARY Altogether, all these examples of new media technology are suitable ways of boosting promotion for the film as it creates a "word of mouth" scenario which ensures that it does well. In addition to this, it would be effective as it is cheap or free to do.

Fortunately, as it creates an online hype which is most likely be discussed in real life, and so it makes this method very good. |
