Continuing my work and research from last lesson, over the week between lessons I created my own Instagram page to advertise myself as an actor. I felt like this would be an effective idea because I could then gain followers and create a status online so that when I get auditions it boosts my popularity of the audience because of the followers that I have. This worked effectively because over the week of starting the page, I gained 200 followers for the account meaning that more directors and casting directors are more likely to find me. I found that when I posted my previous work experience I would get more followers, depending on the popularity of the act, for example I want to boost my career in stand up comedy and I feel that this Instagram account is a great way to advertise myself because I found that when I take screenshots of my recent performance of stand up comedy, and use hashtags to gain notice for the post, more people become interested and even casting directors like the photos.
Overall I found this effective because it allowed me to become more familiar with my online status and has already boosted my status further in just one week. To improve for next lesson I would like to continue working on my website so that I can link it to my Instagram page and show my followers a wider perspective on me and my work, and also show more about what I have done.
