Welcome!

On behalf of the team, welcome to the How To Be Promotional Blitz site!

Let us tell you about the site.  Initiated by tMF (the Movie-Fanatic), this promotional site is the work of volunteers who aim to provide a much-needed buzz for filmmakers Oliver Irving and Justin Kelly initial movie offering, How To Be.

With a cast that includes Robert Pattinson, Rebecca Pidgeon, Jeremy Hardy, Johnny White Mike Pearce and Powell Jones, the movie is a comedy about Arthur, a twenty something who moves back in with his parents, hits a quarter-life crisis and enlists the help of a self-help guru.  It's a timely look at the increasingly common phenomena of grown-up children living at home, frustrated creativity and self help.

In the Independent Film world, we know that sometimes these wonderful films don't always get the recognition and distribution they deserve. However, in doing a little research I found that occasionally fans can help remedy this.

How, you ask? It could be as simple as clicking 'send' on an email. Oh! Well look here...a letter, already drafted up and itching to be sent to movie theatres and film distributors... [ read more ]

The Project Welcomes RobPattinson.com as a Partner!

We welcome another partner to the site, RobPattinson.com!  Here's what site owner, Jen, has to say about her site:
- - -
robpattinsoncom banner
- - -
Robpattinson.com has come about due to a great interest in Robert Pattinson and a desire to learn more about web design (I learn something new everyday.)  I first took notice of Rob in Harry Potter and followed his career, quietly lurking around the net. After I read that he was cast in Twilight, I immediately read the books and was hooked.  I saw this as a great opportunity for Rob and was excited at the potential for him.  I became more active in the Rob community and worked as part of the Little Ashes and How to Be Promotional Blitz's, doing graphics and research. During the project, I got the final push to create Robpattinson.com after being approached to design another fansite.  As I was working on it, I knew I had to have my own... So here I am.
 
My goal is to provide the readers with up to date news regarding Rob's exploding career. As I type, I am working new scripts and areas to the site that the fans will love. This is an exciting time for him, as well as the fans!!! 
Jen has been a big support to us here at the How To Be Promotional Blitz.  Welcome aboard!

The site is stocked with over 15,000 images, videos, and articles, plus extensive information about Rob and his work.

The project welcomes Spunk Ransom II Robert Pattinson Myspace as a partner!

Though somewhat new to the scene of Robert Pattinson fan-sites, the Spunk Ransom ll Robert Pattinson Myspace  and Spunk Ransom website have that 'chaotic but cool, fresh, versatile, friendly and hip' feeling to it. Kristin and Mareike have really given fans what they want, with updates and photos...always up to date and and welcoming of fans and feedback.

Help us welcome Kristin and Mareike as our partners, and hear more about their site in their words:


The Spunk Ransom ll Robert Pattinson Myspace began between two strangers across the globe, Kristin Rielly in the United States and Mareike Anniés in Germany, who shared a common interest, Robert Pattinson. Kristin became a fan of Robert after seeing him as Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Mareike became a fan of Robert after seeing him involved with Twilight. Both of these ladies admire his down-to earth attitude. He is an actor who doesn't take fame too seriously. It is about his work, whether it is film or music. They decided to focus on news while offering other things along the way such as pictures and full length movies to watch such as The Haunted Airman and The Bad Mother's Handbook for fans who didn't have access to some of his earlier work. The MySpace opened on July 10, 2008 and already has over 2700 friends and more than 35,000 blog views. The site garnished attention from The Movie Fanatic with Kristin as a writer and Mareike as a German correspondent for the Little Ashes Promotional Blitz project. With the popularity of the site, Kristen also opened Spunk-Ransom.com.

We are thrilled to have you on board!

One of Robert Pattinson's foremost fansites, Robert Pattinson Online, is now a partner of the How To Be Promotional Blitz project! Please say hello and let's welcome Seana and Devon to the team!

Here's more about the creators of the website and more:

Robert Pattinson Online is a website dedicated in bringing you the latest news, pictures, media and much more on the talented Robert Pattinson. The owners are Seana and Devon, two girls who have been admiring Rob's acting since the beginning of his career. Seana has been a fan since Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, and Devon has been a fan since seeing Rob on the deleted scenes on the Vanity Fair DVD when it first came out. After becoming friends on a band's street team, they both found out about each other's interest in Robert. After previously owning another fan site, Seana and Devon both decided to create a fan site for the actor. They wanted to create a place where fans could go to find out about all of his latest projects and to help show as many people as they could who he was. In June 2008, RPO was launched and quickly became a success. The site has already gained a lot of attention with mentions on The Movie Fanatic, True Genius Magazine and was also mentioned on the How To Be website which is the official website for another indie movie that Robert had done. As for the future of RPO, Devon and Seana hope to keep the site open for years to come, showcasing all of Robert's projects and watching Robert grow into a well respected actor.

We're currently corresponding to have all of Robert's dedicated sites to join the project and help in the promotion of the movie.

Seana and Devon's ideas and tips for promoting How To Be is one good thing we look forward to!

If you're going to ask me about Robert Pattinson, then I have to say that Pattinson Life, a community on LiveJournal, is one of the best resource sites on the net to give you the latest on the young actor. Michelle, the owner, has said many times that the blog dedicated to Rob is updated regularly, and she remains true to her words.

But Michelle's Pattinson Life is not the only site she maintained. Also doing a fantastic job in promoting Rob's movies is her friend and partner Marta, definitely a source of inspiration for many of Rob's fans and site owners for her boundless energy. We're very proud to have Michelle and Marta as our partners!

Here's more from Michelle:

Robert Pattinson Life was born on the 17th of April. I mainly started the blog for myself but it kind of took over. I've been an admirer of Rob's since Cedric Diggory days (2005) and my favorite character to date is Daniel in The Bad Mother's Handbook. The blog has almost 241,818 hits and still climbing. It's updated everyday. I just really adore Rob!
On behalf of the team, please let's all welcome Michelle!
