Spotlight on Social Media: Successful Strategies for Storytellers

Today’s social-media sites have the potential to bring content creators closer to audiences than ever before—creating new marketing opportunities for independents. But what more can be achieved? Can we create meaningful experiences through our profile pages, or is it all just self-promotional clutter? Are the popular sites we use today the end of the line, or just a peek into the future? Moderated by Kara Swisher of The Wall Street Journal’s AllThingsD.com.

Panelists: Robert Tercek (president of digital media, the Oprah Winfrey Network); Dave Eun (vice president of content partnerships, YouTube); Ondi Timoner (filmmaker, We Live In Public); Jason Klein (copresident, Special Ops Media); Chris Gebhardt (executive vice president, Participant’s TakePart); and Jason Hirschhorn (chief product officer, MySpace).

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
