Research and Planning: The Pitch

Research and Planning: Social Media Link


I put a link to the Audience research poll that I created onto my Twitter account as to get some feedback from my followers, which would help out with my Social Media research and feedback and help my poll reach out to a wider audience and therefore make my research more relevant.

I also put the link onto my Tumblr page for the same reason, to get more people to take the poll and gain us more research into making our trailer.
