Now that the Oscars are over it’s time to take a look at something incredible that’s happened over the last ten days. The trailer for low-budget independent comedy, Pulp, has shot to the top of YouTube’s film & animation chart with over 1 million views.
Thanks to the power of viral marketing and the strength of the geek army, the most watched trailer over Oscar weekend was not any of the award contenders, but this tiny British film.
On Saturday, the Pulp trailer was the 2nd most watched and shared video in any category in America. It is currently the number 1 worldwide trailer by a significant margin – the result of a spectacularly successful grass-roots viral marketing campaign.
The filmmakers behind Pulp ascribe the success to the fact that they previewed a scene from the movie at the end of the trailer. The now infamous ‘Star Wars’ scene has got fans and bloggers talking, and it’s authentic tone has struck a chord with geeks all over the world. Pulp is the ultimate underdog story, and it seems that the trailer’s success is mirroring events in the film.
Fox Digital just launched WOLFPACK OF RESEDA, a new original, scripted web series produced in partnership with Kia Motors. Office Space meets True Blood – WOLFPACK mixes elements of workplace comedy with the conventions of horror offering a unique take on office life, the supernatural, and “winning.” The series sees Ben March’s mundane, 20-something life transform when he becomes convinced he’s been bitten by a werewolf in the suburban-Los Angeles sprawl of Reseda. After forming his own “wolfpack” and becoming the alpha dog of Reseda, Ben’s moon is on the rise, but will it turn him irreversibly into the beast that will raise Hell in the Valley?
“WOLFPACK exemplifies the kind of storytelling and distribution that is ideal for the current digital media landscape,” said Matt Glotzer, senior vice president, Fox Digital Entertainment. “We are very excited to be working closely with Kia and Myspace to bring this original and darkly hilarious story to a broad audience on a wide variety of platforms.”
WOLFPACK’s first season of eight episodes will debut weekly on Myspace starting this week, and the series will also be available through a variety of digital stores. The cast features actors who have had recurring roles on The Big Bang Theory, Eastbound & Down, Lie To Me, Funny or Die Presents, and more.
