A successful illustration career doesn’t happen from one day to another, and definitely not spontaneously. While creating a strong body of work is important, communication and consistency are also key. This affordable webinar, especially designed for new illustrators entering the industry, will cover the following:
- The importance of being proactive and investing in different avenues in order to grow.
- Key questions to bear in mind when promoting yourself and your portfolio.
- Nurturing your website and social media.
- Researching and contacting the clients you really want to work with.
- Developing a presence online and (eventually) offline.
- Building connections and a network.
This talk will draw on personal experience and showcase examples of other industry professionals, sharing practical tips you can start putting into practice during COVID19. After the talk, a short Q&A session will follow.
