From Posters to Pixels: Changing Face of Movie Marketing

In the early days of Indian cinema, movie marketing was a relatively straightforward affair. Filmmakers relied heavily on colorful posters and hand-painted billboards to attract audiences to their films. These visually striking posters not only served as promotional tools but also offered a glimpse into the film's characters and plot. With limited technological resources and a largely local audience, this was an effective strategy.

Furthermore, word of mouth played a crucial role in promoting movies. Positive reviews and audience feedback were instrumental in driving footfalls. Celebrities and film stars were also significant assets in promoting films through public appearances, endorsements, and interviews.

As India embraced the internet and digital technology in the late 1990s and early 2000s, movie marketing underwent a profound transformation. The emergence of websites dedicated to Bollywood news and movie reviews provided new platforms for promotion. However, the real gamechanger was the rise of social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

The algorithms overwhelmingly favor approved talking points, even if false, with a vast and hugely influential machine now serving one political interest and dictated by one agenda. Search is no longer reliably informative of what's actually out there. "I'll Google that," once meant to get a wide range of wants you to believe. Jeffrey A.

Gold: An Excellent Diversification

Gold is priced in dollars. Inflation means the dollar is worth less in terms of purchasing power. That means it takes more dollars to buy gold, so the dollar price of gold goes up. What you may lose in the rest of your portfolio in terms of dollar purchasing power is made up in part or all from the profits you make on the higher dollar price of gold. James Rickards says owning gold will protect you from the ravages of inflation. You’ll have your inflation protection in place 24/7 and won’t be caught off-guard.
