ArtsHub‘s friends across the Tasman at The Big Idea have produced a series of learning modules offering advice from experts on core topics and aimed at helping creatives along the road to success in their practice. There are four separate modules, each comprising a series of linked videos. Learning Module 1, Roadmap to Success, has eight videos; Module 2, Selling Yourself, has five videos; Module 3, Media and Publicity, has five videos and Module 4, Networking and Mentoring, has five videos.
Over the next few months ArtsHub will share these one of these videos every Monday in order that Australian creatives can benefit from their wisdom, practical advice and expertise too.
Second cab off the ranks is the Selling Yourself – Learning Module 2, in which poet, novelist, publisher and youth educator Dominic Hoey covers handling rejection and setbacks, ways to promote yourself, the value and tips on international residencies and takes you through ways of writing your bio.
In this week’s video, the first contribution in this second Learning Module, Hoey explains the importance of Thinking Like an American.
Look out for the third in this series of videos, Writing Your Bio, where Dominic Hoey explains how those from the other side of the Pacific may have cracked the art of selling themselves already.
The video Selling Yourself – Learning Module 2, Think Like an Americanas originally published on The Big Idea’s Learning Network. You can find it here.
