Social media platforms have become essential marketing tools for films and other media products. Advertising campaigns use collected user data to identify the most effective promotional techniques on sites like Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter. These sites allow profiles to unify all promotional materials like posters, reviews, behind-the-scenes footage, and merchandise under a single hashtag. An example given is the Netflix series Dark, which made creative use of Instagram to promote its seasons. Social media offers experimentation important for cutting through distractions and engaging potential audiences in the unpredictable online landscape.
