Have you heard any of these Instagram myths before, or believed them yourself! Many of us do, including me at one point!
thanks for trying to get us motivated about instagram again. I TOTALLY gave up on it, yup...
also giving up on Etsy >.
Aww I'm sorry to hear that hun! When things aren't working, that's not the time to give up... that means it's time to do more research and switch up your strategy :)
i'll listen later.. thanks for sharing...
I hope you enjoy it! :)
Well, watching this video just tells me that I have to basically up my game. I have never been good at social media. Honestly I look at it and think its a necessary evil that needs to be there if you want to be seen. Just today i was thinking is it worth it to post in Instagram. I will keep trying i guess. 😅
The important thing is to do your research before you start posting anew :) It's surprisingly easy to grow on Instagram if you know the basic rule book of the algorithm. But if you post blind and willy-nilly, it can be a real waste of time. Good luck Jimmy!
Do you recommend procreate timelapses as reels?
Procreate timelapse could work nicely if your audience enjoys them. I find that sometimes they're not entirely riveting though... So I'm not sure if they would really interest people that much.
I mean but the Instagram hates artists still holds true doesnt it? I mean you said it yourself: "... That way of posting does not work anymore", Instagram is slowly but surely evolving from being a art and photography platform to essentially Tik Tok 2. There are alot of tricks and tips yeah, but all of this basicly boils down to becoming an art influencer rather than just an artist.
My Instagram is about my sculptures, which can take multiple weeks or even months to finish so posting every single day, or even just every other day just isnt viable for me, even with doing multiple post for each project there just isnt enough content i can make without just repeating myself.
If Instagram wants to become Tik Tok 2 where you have to basicly spam content every single day to be midly successfull so be it. But it can do it without me, im an artist not an entertainer
I hear a lot of artists say that, "I'm an artist not an entertainer", but honestly I think we don't have to be entertainers or influencers to use the tools available to us to show our art to the world. Reels would be an amazing way to showcase what you do and how you do it. A reel only has to be 4-8 secs long and I think a video would do sculptures better justice than a static photo, because you can show it from different angles easier, as well as showing parts of your process which I for one would find fascinating. For many artists it's a big missed opportunity, and most resist the idea not because of artistic integrity but instead deep down... simply because they stuck in their ways and don't wish to alter their routine or process even in the slightest to incorporate making reels. I think that's really too bad, but of course it's up to each artist what they find important enough to put on their to-do list.
