Social Media support for you

I read a lot about making your posts stand out on social media and here are 10 tips from Artsy that I thought you might be interred in:

1. ADD A PERSON

Always include a person for scale (it helps if they’re dressed interestingly). A person in the image gives the work dimension and keeps the shot from looking too sterile.

2. ILLUSTRATE DEPTH

Try shooting through a work to add dimensionality and scale.

3. KEEP WHITES WHITE

Filters and processing apps are easy-to-use tools that give your photos the boost they need to catch your audience’s eye. Use features like Snapseed’s Selective Adjust tool to desaturate walls and make them appear as white as they are in person.

4. INCLUDE CONTEXT

While it’s tempting to keep your shot tight, step back to show more of your display and put the image in context.

5. SHOW CONTRAST

Get creative with colour in your image—you only have a second to capture attention with your post and strong uses of colour can capture attention quickly.

6. CREATE A FOCAL POINT

You can enhance the focal point of your image by including subtle vignetting (darkeningof the edges of the image) in apps like Snapseed.

7. TELL A STORY

Try to include information about the works you’re presenting, a short fact can make your caption much more compelling.

8. RESEARCH HASHTAGS

Do a quick search to make sure you’re including the official hashtag for the fair in your caption, as well as the top trending hashtags. Also use your posts as an opportunity to promote your hashtag if you have one.

9. USE A GEOTAG

Adding a geotag is a quick and easy way to make your post more discoverable.

10. DIRECT TO MORE INFORMATION

The link in your bio is a great place to include more information about your artists and fair presence (i.e. your booth on Artsy).
