Social Media

An update on my use of social media to promote my work since the beginning of the Professional Futures module.

My professional Instagram account with the username @the_fashion_zeitgeist is a collection of my design work. It consists of images from projects I worked on during my time at Pearl Academy, personal projects that I undertook and work from my MA course at Nottingham Trent University.

In my blog post titled, "Of Changing Careers & the Use of Social Media", I wrote about wanting to post regularly on my professional Instagram account, having been inspired by Stephy Fung's advice.

Over the course of one and a half months, my post count has increased from 69 to 90. That is an average of one post for every 2.14 days.

Since most guest speakers emphasized the importance of building a network on LinkedIn, I decided to improve my activity on the same which led me to post a link to one of my blog posts from the Professional Futures website on my news feed.
