School of Visual Storytelling

I learned alot about how to use social media from your YouTube Jake and I started gaining traction. After a while I subscribed to SVS and watched this and realized I was doing almost everything you had said and it has been growing at a steady pace! I find that patience is definitely the ultimate key to all of it.

I've been on social media for a while with little luck but I feel like these points will help me get a good grove going, not only in regards to followers but also with knowing my brand. Thank you!

I thought this 3rd Thursday video was a good topic to go into. There are a bunch of other website for artist to sell stuff, to show and to get people to notice what we create. We are competing to get attention in the sea of eyes. I recommend this to everyone, you don't even have to take notes. Just listen to listen to Jake Parker on some fun and creative advice.

Jake Parker really goes in depth on the BEHIND THE SCENES on spreading your art far a wide. It's really not enough to just post and hope people see your art. If you're serious about getting recognition, you have to do way more then that.

A very detailed explanation of social media and how to use it for artists, it has been really helpful for me. Thank you!

Jake runs through his approach to using social media, and it is so incredibly packed with useful information that you'll definitely want to take notes for. Jake starts with the question, "why?" before diving into the how which I know that I've skipped in the past. I can't recommend this enough.

I wouldn't really call this a course or a class, as it was much more an informative session of valuable information about several social media platforms. I learned some new things about platform-specific tactics which I think will be very valuable in getting that 10k followers. But I wish there had been a more in-depth guide about how to actually get there. I know having a plan is important, but how exactly do you plan your content? Is it try-and-learn or are there more specific studied tactics to that? Jake covered some platform-specific tactics with general rules, which seem quite handy. But some assignments or a simple workbook to get you started is something I feel is still missing from this course. Overall I'm happy that I took the time and invested the subscripion money to watch the session. I'm hoping there will be some updates for this course in the future.

Really appreciate Jake's thoroughness in presenting the information and his honesty about the social media platforms, looking at your work quality and that it may take a while to get that 10K. That its not a get quick thing. watched it twice and probably will watch again before subscriptions up!

I absolutely loved this class. Thank you so much Jake, Lee, and Will for sharing all of that awesome information!

This is one of the hardest parts of being a professional artist and this course just made it so much easier to navigate social media. I have actually been a fan of Jake's since the Agent44 stuff and seeing what he has accomplished with what he shared here makes it all that much more approachable - and it was fun to hear the structure behind all of it! One of the most important parts of this was how you figure out how to present yourself. I will definitely be listening to this several times! Thank you for an excellent course!

Great video, very informative, lots of tips and tricks on how to grow your social media following.

I took a hiatus for a month or two to refuel my creative juices and this lesson was the perfect one to kickstart it off! I feel more confident online, and now that I have a plan for my social media, I can simply focus on my craft.
