Social Media and Artists.

Social media is being used as a part of our daily life for a long time now. We have been using it as a source of entertainment, information and mostly communication. Right now people are using social media to gain jobs and be more recognition of from their work. Mostly by posting all of our work in certain social media websites, like tumblr,blogspot,deviantart etc. According to the report, artists need to make portfolios for their line of work (Dena, C.2015). The portfolios can be presented in USB, a catalog or even in an online format. Most of people already post online and it was already clear to me that we must also do it. I know it because it is much safer to post your work online, rather than saving it on a USB. I would rather do it on both in case i could not access one of them. This is much more useful for a lot of artists due to many reasons. Many reasons may be because of virus, drive failure and theft (Backup of Data & Files – Why it is Important, n.d). This can save you a lot, because the interviewer will be pleased by how well prepared you are. Because of this i will try and get at least 3 backup files of my work. If i will make a website to show my work, i will try and include this idea as a description of how i started out.
