I'm Speaking at Dribbble Hangtime Seattle
Meet me in Seattle, WA for a sweet one day Dribbble Conference! I'll be doing a talk all about social media, making sellable products, and getting clients! Join me and cool kids like Nathan Yoder, Dana Tanamachi and Aaron Draplin May 15th, 2018.
The theme of the conference is "Quality Over Quantity" but I'm taking my own spin by shipping out a lot of artwork to then refine down to my best art. This is my secret to selling sold out products and featuring only the best work in my portfolio. This way of thinking not only gives me the confidence to try new things but also saves me countless hours working on projects that no one likes.
I think visual social media platforms should be an inside look into our process where designers should be transparent in their passions that includes both their failures and successes. That way we can create a more honest community of talent where we lift each other up vs having a competitive atmosphere of who got the most likes.
We should be using platforms like Dribbble, Instagram, and Behance as a soundboard to see how our work does in the marketplace and get constructive feedback on how to improve it. That way we only spend that extra time on pieces that we already know will do well to display our best work for clients, customers, and fans.
