Dear Friend,
Thank you so much for attending our "DriverX" screening in Woods Hole, and for signing up on our mailing list! After working on the film for over three years, it's been a thrill for us to show it to audiences around the country.
Now that you're in our email system, you will start getting regular emails from us as things heat up on the distribution front. If you ever want to unsubscribe, just click the Unsubscribe link at the bottom of our emails.
And things are definitely starting to stir distribution-wise. We're very close to announcing a distribution deal, and we couldn't be more thrilled. It's a great opportunity for a little film like ours. In the midst of this, I wanted to ask for your help.
As we prepare for a Fall release, we'll be trying to court audiences in a very crowded marketplace. One of the most important metrics that audiences look for in an indie film is how well-rated they are on IMDB. When film-goers look us up, we'd like them to see a strong rating, so I'd like to ask you to rate the movie. Another way to look at it--you've just taken an Uber or Lyft; now you get a chance to rate your driver!
We'd also like to keep up with you on social media. If you have a minute, here's how to do both, and they are EASY:
- FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA. You can find us on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook and our handle on all platforms is @DriverXMovie . We're going to be ramping up our social media in the coming months and we'd love to engage with you on these platforms.
- RATE US ON IMDB. IMDB has become the de facto way people decide to see a movie. They read the description, perhaps watch a trailer, and then look it up on IMDB to see if it has a good rating. A high rating is crucial for a film like ours, and a high number of ratings means that opinion is broad-based. It takes about 2 seconds to rate a film on IMDB. Just click the button below and then click the star that says "Rate This" (to the right of the Title). If you're not logged into IMDB, it will ask you to log in first, and if you don't already have an IMDB account, it will ask you to create one, which takes about 5 seconds and is free. Of course, I want you to be honest with your rating, but if you're going to go to all the trouble to rate the film, please consider rating it highly, (just sayin'...)!
