This webinar was very useful to me as it pointed out how important my image is on social media, and highlighted that I really need to improve my social media presence. I've always found social media hard, both in terms of uploading my own work as well as with talking to others, however having a strong social media profile in this industry is extremely useful and almost necessary.
After this talk, I realised that I needed to do a few things. Firstly, instagram is pretty much my sole social media app, therefore I need to update it to have a bio as well as a drawn profile picture. I also need to upload more, and more frequently to it. Here is the bio that I added:
I find things like this really hard as I tend to overthink everything, but I looked at other artists and they mainly included what they do, where they've previously worked as well as a bit about them.
I previously had a illustrated profile picture however I really don't like it anymore and didn't think it was fitting to represent me, therefore I just changed it to a photo of me till I create a new illustrated one.
In addition to this, I want to update my website with more recent work and a portfolio, and then link it in my instagram bio. I also want to create a linkedin as both this webinar and later ones talk about the importance of a good linkedin profile, and finally I may give twitter another go even though I find it confusing and scary.
