Okurr…
So now that I have created a social media, I need to know what exactly I should be posting.
Here are a couple comedy movie’s Instagrams that I researched:
1. Humor & Relatability
Short, hilarious moments from the movie that tease its comedic tone.
Using movie scenes to create viral memes.
Making posts feel personal, like "When you realize it's only Tuesday... 😩😂" with a funny clip.
2. Cast & Behind-the-Scenes Content
Showing actors messing up lines or laughing.
Clips of cast chemistry, pranks, and fun on set.
Actors doing fun trends, like reenacting viral TikTok audios.
3. Engaging with Fans
"Which character are you?" or "What’s your go-to reaction when your crush texts first?"
Sharing fan edits or reaction videos.
Encouraging followers to tag friends who remind them of certain characters.
4. Playful Marketing Stunts
Presenting the movie as something dramatic before flipping it into comedy.
Editing characters into trending pop culture moments.
Pretending to accidentally post spoilers that are just absurd fake scenes.
5. Trend-Based Content
Fast-paced, meme-filled edits with trending sounds.
"POV" Skits: “POV: You just realized your best friend is the main character in a comedy movie.”
Using filters, voiceovers, or fake messages with movie characters.
To promote my comedy short film on Instagram, I should focus on content that highlights its humor and engages the audience. Posting short, funny clips will give people a preview of the film’s tone and style. Memes and reaction GIFs created from key scenes can help make the film more shareable. Behind-the-scenes moments, like bloopers or cast interactions, will add personality and make the project feel more relatable. Interactive posts, such as polls and quizzes, can encourage audience participation and increase engagement. Asking followers to tag friends in comments can help spread awareness. Marketing stunts, like fake serious ads or exaggerated “leaked” content, can create curiosity and keep the film in people’s minds. Trend-based content, such as POV skits or TikTok-style edits, will help attract viewers familiar with social media trends. Posting consistently and responding to comments will keep the audience involved. Using these strategies will help build interest and create a strong online presence for the film.
