Just out of interest - does anyone tweet?

I started a while ago but cannot seem to get any followers - it may be that i am just sad, dull and boring or posting rubbish tweets.

If any of you can give me some ideas and how successful you are - it would be great.

Ta!

I started tweeting as a new year's resolution and it's been quite useful, I try to keep it mainly as an 'acting' account but other things creep in there. It also comes across a little boring when it was only work, work, work.

I recently saw some people tweeting that I'd auditioned for and a few months later they've offered me a part based on my previous audition. :)

I trim down the people I follow once in a while, some people tweet every 5 mins and that is too much for me!

Good Luck on it and I will try and find some of you on it...

Yep, I'm on there as well but have yet to work out why! It's a place holder to secure my name more than anything else!

I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm a total twitter addict. So many hours spent... but were they wasted? I'd like to think not. If nothing else it's a great way to keep in touch with the people you've worked with, and those you hope to work with in the future.

I'm @ameliatyler. Please forgive my mishmash of garbled nonsense and blatant self-promotion ;)

I've finally given in and got a twitter account. I'm intending to keep it industry focused (facebook fulfills all my cute kitten video needs already ;-).

Let's see how it goes.....


@ChrisPolick


Any tips for acting related accounts to follow most appreciated.

Hey twitter is very good to have to build a fan base alot of people find it pointless but it's about publishing ur self exposing your self and letting people know your name and what you do. So when people see your work its not oh I know that person who was in this it oh that bla bla.
Think it very important to
Advertise yourself, and as you tweet your
Work the people who watch the stuff or follow the stars in it will follow you as they will see your tagged tweet. And also Facebook make a fan page and spread it hard as you can. And post once every 2 weeks what you got going on.

Follow me
And I follow you dude
