Task 1d: 2d Images

Images

I usually love to post pictures on my Instagram because it gives you so many options to customise your photo how you like it.  I haven’t posted anything for so long but I think I need to start posting more professional pictures or videos. Now, I am trying to collect videos to do a showreel instead of posting them on social media. So, until I do a showreel, I wouldn’t post any pictures on it until it's done. I think it’s important to have some professional accepts on your personal Instagram for marketing purposes.

Instagram is the easiest way to communicate with people with pictures because you just scroll down and see other people’s photographic lives. This application is mainly for photos and that’s why it gives you so many choices to customise it. The way you filter your photos to look better, the more people will look at it, like your photos and build you up to do have more followers.

The purpose of this application it’s to put everything together rather than separate you from personal to professional life. I prefer to give both so, whoever is interested in my profile will get both sides to my life.

Before as a dancer, we are humans first and some people don’t know how a dancer’s life is. So it’s important to keep your personal life whilst on your journey in the professional world.

I got this resource from Wikipedia.

“Instagram is an online mobile photo-sharing, video-sharing, and social networking service that enables its users to take pictures and videos, and share them either publicly or privately on the app, as well as through a variety of other social networking platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Flickr.”

Part 1: Professional Communication Technologies

                                                 Types of communication There are many types of communications in our lives to help you to get people to know you, what can you do, what have you done and also what's your future plans. I am always trying my best to look good on my professional life but it's not easy. You need to have experience and learn from them. My types of communication are the most common ones for my type of professional life. It takes the time to prepare your material for the auditions that you want to show or sometimes they ask what they want to see. I don't like spending to much time to prepare my self because it really stressing me out and it makes me stopping from doing my best but at the same time I know what I'm doing. There ar two ways of professional communication in the auditions. The first way to communicate is non-verbal. For e...

Professional Networking

Spotlight Spotlight was founded in 1927 and is the UK's largest casting resource. Over 60,000 performers appear in Spotlight, including actors and actresses, child artist, presenters, dancers, and stunt artist. Thousands of production companies, broadcasters, ad agencies , and independent casting directors use Spotlight as a casting resource. Their clients range from large organisations such as the BBC, ITV, and Channel 4, to small production companies and individual casting directors. I used this website, last year because my college advised us to make an account to help us find future auditions even if we've left. I haven't used it that many times during my time at college purely because I had my college agency to sending me all the important auditions. Spotlight is a great and very successful system but I don't feel like it benefited me because in reality it's so much easier to have an agent than just this. Another reason is, you have pay every year to keep y...

Task 3a - Current networks

  Professional Networking is important for our career because we can get jobs just from knowing someone from working together previously on a job for example. Esp, cially dancers who are trying to stay fit, they do this by joining different courses and dance workshops and at the same time they are meeting people who are already outside working in the industry and have experience teaching you or dancing next to you. It’s important to know how to communicate with people you are working with because someday they will help you find a job which can change your career completely. Most of the people who book jobs are seen and known by casting directors, not because they have more talent than let's say other trained dancers. Also you can use the online communication without the development of web 2.0 the use of online networking. As an artist and human, I am trying to keep my personal and professional networks separate because is keeps thing more professional, as both are really...
