PIGSY Social Media - Youtube & Instagram

I’ve written before about which Social Media platforms I use which includes Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. Of late, I have been mainly using Instagram because it is works so well for my art given the type of visual platform that it is.

I’ve been wanting to up my Instagram game and utilise the platform for all that it can offer to an artist.- in essence it can be used as a platform to share your portfolio of work.

PIGSY Instagram Reels

So this weekend, I set about doing a bit of research as to what way I could improve on the images I put up on Instagram and also what I can share in addition to images. From doing research, I can now see that Instagram is very much about reels and video content. Adding art video content is something new to me so for the moment I am experimenting with the different music and effects that I can add to the videos. It’s all a bit of fun at the moment but as I learn more I can take it a bit more seriously and use the new tools I have learned in order to build my follower numbers on the PIGSY Instagram.

PIGSY Videos on Youtube

The PIGSY Youtube channel has been in existence for awhile but I’ve only really used it sporadically. I’ve mainly used it for online exhibitions in the past but I intend to use it for the PIGSY podcast which I am starting to plan. IT’s going to be a podcast about creativity, art and dyslexia which I think there will be massive interest in. The podcast concept is in it’s infancy but I am currently looking at the set up for it before I begin to start scripting it, along with lining up well known creatives with dyslexia to be be part of different shows or to be interviewed for the podcast. It’s always exciting to have new projects to be working on. For the moment, I am uploading video shorts and reels from Instagram on to youtube. It’s good to have them on both platforms and I think they will reach two different audiences this way.
