Enterprise 3.2

After thinking about printed media to send to my target audience (business cards / mailshots) I also need to think about my online presence. I am currently running on loads of different websites for photos / graphics / blogging. I need to make sure that the content of the websites will appeal to the music industry, this post is a brief summary of my current online presence and what links I would want to send out to possible employers...


Links - - -

Flickr - www.flickr.com/matttuc
My flickr serves as an online journal and storage space for all the photos that I take, also a nice place to source photos etc







Tumblr - www.matttuc.tumblr.com
My tumblr is a place where I can post all the images / things I find without having a running commentary, its basically my visual diary of primary and secondary resources. More of a personal blog that something to promote myself.

When I leave uni I will set up a completely new blog, where I will take elements of all my others and put into one single visual diary and link on my website.



Blogger - www.m-tucker1013.blogspot.com
After hours of fine tuning I am finally happy with all my course blogs (aesthetically and contextually) and feel that they are of a high enough quality to send to possible clients / employers.

It would be nice to have a summative homepage with images of all my final outcomes but this is something that I hope to cover on my website, but for the moment I think this is the best online presence to send out to people.

Behance - www.behance.net/matttuc
This is the closest thing I have to an online portfolio, but I have been through it and don't think some of the projects are reflective of my current design principles and are possibly a bit dated, so I will do some re-arranging and delete a few projects to make sure it is up to date and professional.



The two one I would ever send links to employers to are my course blogs and my behance, however by the end of this next module I want to have set up my own website with the url www.matttuc.co.uk (currently available) this will give me a clean space to display my work and I will need to think about how I can make it original and enticing.

Although I wouldn't send people links to the other websites, I always make sure that my online presence is kept professional and reflective of my design principles and characters so its nice to know I have consistent urls so people will associate all of them with me. I do however need to add my email to the websites to make sure people can get in contact away from the organised and sometimes very unprofessional world of online creative sites.
