Social media page draft 1

So far we have created our social media page and started to add content to it. We have transferred some of the content and logos from the digipak to the social media page to show it as more of brand. We have published four posts so far, this content includes teasers for the album and the single. We have also released the single with the music video. We have also posted some of the behind the scenes for filming more music videos and shoots for media releases. Something that we looked at when doing are research for the page from what other artists have done in the past was the use of of stories and highlights on Instagram. We have taken this idea and tried to apply it to our social media page by using stories to promote things and keep them saved through the highlights on the page.

Below is what our social media page currently looks like and the process of the posts we have done…

This is are most recent version of the page.

Self Assessment

Once we had done draft one of the page we had to create a self assessment to make sure we had hit the criteria we needed to. Also to think what typical conventions a social media page for a band or artist would have in theirs. It was good to do this reflection as it made me release what conventions and essential things that we have in the page but also what we need to add in for the next draft This reflection sheet is below… 

Reflection

This assessment for draft one was really helpful & useful to do. This is because it’s realized how much we still need to add in for the next drafts. In draft 1 we have included lots of the conventions you would see on a social media page and the basic things such as a call to action, interaction & engagement, content and design coherence. However there is still things like cross media convergence, synergy, promotion of live events and social issues we have not shown/promoted. This is something that we will need to improve and change for the second draft and without the assessment we would have probably not realized we need to add in these important features to it.
