Give a detailed response as to how you plan to take your role project output and have it be an effective means of self-promotion for your specialist practice



Project Promotion💬


 


(Built in, n.d.)


“Digital marketing offers a more affordable way to reach a broad target audience. It gives marketers data-driven insights on their target audience and their buying behavior”(Mishra, 2020, p.2).

Similarly, the question of the week is:

⭐How do I plan to take my project output and self-promote it? 


Just like Digital marketing for a business, a person's success in the creative industry can heavily rely on the way they market themselves. Self-promotion is important as it allows an outside audience to acknowledge and consider your work. This opens up opportunities in the workforce as people will know about you and the quality of your work and skills.     


For me, I plan to promote my work using my portfolio. I plan to publish my final specialization output on sites like Artsation and Rookies. Both Artstation and Rookies are sites where you can display your work to the public and add information about yourself for employers. However, Artsation is more for professionals and is harder to be seen whereas Rookies is for newcomers to the industry and is easier to be seen. 


When creating my portfolio I plan to construct it around my story artist specialization by adding storyboards, animatics, cover illustrations, and story beats. The aim of my portfolio is to show off my visual storytelling capabilities along with my illustration skills and editing. Though my portfolio is currently just the work I have in the future I plan to flesh it out and create more work so it is only my best work. I also want to make sure it is engaging to look and feels professional by creating my own banner and icons.

Simulator Success

Walking simulators come in many shapes and sizes. Whether it's a story of mystery and heartbreak, a tale of horrors and suspicion or a leisurely stroll through a mesmerising scene. Though they have limited action and haven't exactly been considered the apex of gaming history you'll still be surprised by their success within these modern times.   Likewise, according to the Wire’s article, The Joy of Walking in games. "People turned to video games in droves during the pandemic, and game companies recorded record profits. The philosopher and theologian Saint Augustine coined the Latin phrase “ Solvitur ambulando ,” meaning “It is solved by walking,” and walking—albeit virtually, is where I turned to steady my mind " (Briscoe, 2021).   So then here's the question of the week: ⭐ How would I take my project and make it into a marketable and successful product in the wider media environment?   Well to get to the bottom of this I'll have to address the throbbing ...

Audience Attention

       Audience Attention 👪 Let's start with some questions. What makes up your favourite film? What is it that gets you excited to play your favourite game or visit your favourite stores?  Do you see any patterns?   Despite what your answer is you are part of a target audience.  Let's admit it most products are only as successful as their audience. These audiences are the driving force of what a product is or could be as without an audience there's nobody to sell to. So then, how do we get these so-called audience's attention? Well, typically features like genre, purpose, storytelling, or aesthetics has a role to play. However, there are an abundant more building blocks used to capture an audience.  This leads me to the question of the week: 🌟 Investigation the audience of a currently available commercial project similar to yours and outline how they've captured the attention of their audience and how you can apply similar techniques in your ...

Why does your project exist?

Why does my project exist💭   (Studio Colorido, 2022) "We find meaning in, or give meaning to, such events (in film) by connecting them to other events so that they have a significant place in a narrative framework or causal pattern. Similarly, when we are watching narrative fiction films, we are often left with questions as to why the story took the turn it did at a particular point, or why a character behaved a certain way in a certain scene" (Thomson-Jones, 2008, p. 95 ).   The motive of creating meaning, interpretation and a message is often one of the striving goals for the existence of a film.  It furthermore helps it to differentiate from other films.   This leads me to this week's question:   ⭐ Why will my project stand out, and how will it fit within the larger world of media?   The premise of my role project animatic is to create a story about a lone cloud shepherd who works day and night tending to cloud sheep on a small island. Until one day, a...
