Award Season is upon us..



Its that time of the year again that all of us movie buffs live for,We are in the midst of the movie industries biggest events that happen each year.  Where movies that are voted upon are rewarded in categories that have been nominated for their cinematic achievements. The Golden Globes, Screen Actors Guild, and the BAFTAS have all come and gone, the next show that to some may be the biggest is the Oscars. All have academies that represent each show that is celebrated in a formal event. The award shows are televised live and shown in all forms of media. 

Best Picture is considered the most important of all of the awards. Because it represents all the directing, music, acting, writing and editing that have all been put forth to make that movie what it is. With this being said these formal events are all perfect opportunities for those nominated for best picture to receive some added attention to those films and help boost their box office winnings. Argo has taken the title for all of the shows thus far in 2013 and things are looking very promising for the Oscars. We shall just wait and see how things turn out on Feb 23rd.

Award shows are perfect opportunities for artist, designers, and anyone in the industry to make a name for themselves. Using all forms of social media, as a way of boosting and drawing interest, social media has been helping with reviving the telecast of these shows. Certain techniques have been used but incorporating hashtags has been proven to boost tracking of watchers and promoting themselves at the same time. As for social media things are only starting to heat up, so we can expect new and exciting developments in years to come to keep alive the social media bug.

Be sure to tune into the Oscars and see what shall unfold and what types of media are being used.
