Workshop with Mary Virginia Swanson December 12
Social Media Strategies for Artists: Being Followed, Being Found
In partnership with Nobechi Creative
Mary Virginia Swanson Saturday, December 12, 2020: 11 am-1 pm CST
Overview:
How many people can you reach by pushing a button? Do the sheer numbers matter, or the people behind the numbers? Are your efforts in having a presence online better served by being “followed” by a broad audience, or by strategically posting with searchable hashtags towards being “found” by curators, gallerists, art consultants, photo researchers and private collectors searching for specific visual content? Can you - should you - have an on-line presence to satisfy both audiences?
In this illustrated lecture Mary Virginia Swanson introduces strategies for using social media platforms including Instagram to engage followers in your creative practice and move your career forward. Time will be allocated for a Q&A period.

Calling All Graduating Students
Click here for the website
FOTOFIKA ALL STARS
For many of our graduating 2020 students COVID19 has taken from them the opportunity to celebrate their hard work and successes in the form of their physical thesis exhibitions. FotoFika invites your students to submit their work to the FotoFika Trading Card project!
2020allstars.org is a platform for your students to submit an image to represent their accomplishments. Several institutions and individuals are contributing to the project, including the Center for Creative Photography, SPE, ICP, VCU, ASU etc. We plan to produce a physical set of cards and uncut sheets that will become part of a number of permanent collections, guaranteeing that our students will be remembered for generations to come! Inspired by Mike Mandel’s iconic series of ‘Baseball-Photographer Trading Cards’ all photo/photo-based majors/concentrators (BA/BS/BFA/MFA/PhD) graduating in the spring of 2020 are welcome to submit. Mike Mandel has welcomed our emulation and will be among our contributors who will write for our “All Stars” along with Becky Senf, John Freyer, Betsy Schneider and Anne Massoni (more contributors are being added daily). All students will be included regardless of this special consideration.
Submitted work will be added to the website and instagram feed daily, over the summer we’ll have the time to designate the All Stars and produce the cards. Please forward to your students and a colleague or more at yours or another institution! And visit our site daily for added cards! https://2020allstars.org

Professor Tom Sanders
Tom
Sanders seems proud of his work in his newest book, “The Vietnam War,
The Faces and Voices.” It’s his second book, coming after “The Last Good
War” about WWII veterans.
“It
always surprised me that all the World War II veterans came back as
heroes, and the Vietnam veterans did not,” said Tom Sanders, SCAD
Photography Professor.
Sanders
believes this is his opportunity to let them tell their stories. The
subjects are a wide variety, War relics, Vietnamese immigrants, nurses,
veterans, and conscientious objectors.
“I
think some of the veterans would be upset with the conscientious
objectors in my book, especially the Marines who volunteered to be in
the Vietnam War, but I think it’s my job to represent the Vietnam War
the best I can,” Sanders said.
Sanders
was able to give SCAD Photography Chair Rick English a quick preview of
the book before it comes out in early March. After being rejected early
on, he believes Ken Burns’ series on the war made it possible to
re-visit and feels like that’s an important step for the veterans.
And while he feels good about his work with those that fought in the war, there were some uncomfortable times during sessions.
“When
I photograph the Vietnam veterans, I always feel bad about doing this,
but I ask them to think about their war experiences when I photograph
them, to get that real expression, and get that real nostalgia on their
faces."
