Get Your Name Featured on the Paranormal Activity DVD Dan Koelsch, November 5, 2009November 5, 2009 As we reported before, the viral buzz of Paranormal Activity deserves credit for most of the film’s success. Paramount Pictures obviously realizes this, so they have found a simple yet effective way to thank the fans. By entering your name and some information, you can have your name in the credits of the Paranormal Activity DVD. Go to the film’s official website and click on the “Submit Your Name” button, or go to the submission page directly. I wasn’t a big fan of the film, but this is a really cool gesture on Paramount’s part. They understand how important the word of mouth was in just getting the film released wide, let alone making a crazy profit. Usually fans are rewarded with prizes and more info on the film, but to have your actual name be on the film itself is something I haven’t seen before. By adding your name, you’ll also get notified when the DVD is scheduled to release. Paranormal Activity is currently in theaters. Viral Marketing paranormal activity
