OUGD502: PPP 2 - Networking and contacting professionals

Notes

Networking: People need to know you exist. Talk to people. Make contacts.

*Look at TM Marketing

Try not to email - contact personally, investigate yourself

Above all we must have a reason to speak to them.

Why contact?

What do yo want?

*Look at Jonny Cupcakes

Consider:

My identity?
Maybe a CV - Make it interesting

Task: Investigate a lost of methods you can employ to contact other creative studios and agencies

Contacting professionals

Email? Phone? Social networking? Letter? Fact to face?

Why are you contacting?

Write out what questions you are going to ask?

Never have a negative attitude, ever!

What do you want to tell them?

Ask for feedback

Don't ever ask for a placement straight away

What do they want to know about you?

Why that studio?

What kind of creative are you?

What can you show them?

A brief

Creative CV

What is great about you up to now?

What to take from a meeting?

- Experience and practice
- An insight into how studio runs
- Feedback of my work
- Opportunity to go back

*Look at logo design love.
