Hanbury Hall Notes

• Big Active & Blink: online and social media are more important than you think and can be really beneficial to up and coming artists
• create context in your work, have a tone of voice, good ideas, individuality, professionalism, this is what clients/agencies are after
• collaborate
• don't sign over rights to a client- non disclosure agreement
• agents can be helpful with chasing up payments etc but will also take a cut of your fee
• weigh up whether a job is worth it- are you getting payed enough? is there exposure worth it?
• THE DOTS: portfolio masterclasses
• helps you get work for projects which suit you
• B&A: before contacting professionals do your research. address them correctly
• tailor submissions to agencies/companies
• behance
• carry on with personal practise and self directed briefs and try not to focus entirely on client based work; it can end up you loosing your creative voice
• gifs/moving image for online promotion
• Its Nice That/Nobrow: uses instagram to source talent so treat this like a portfolio; keep a consistent visual representation 
• instead of submissions they tend to be more interested in emails with an image and link to your website/online portfolio
• show your personality through your practise
• It's Nice That graduates- something to apply for
• they also offer internships
