A list of websites to post information for Ad. work




We all want to make it somehow. Whether it's working for a photography company, an advertising firm, or simply just by freelancing throughout the world. However, it can be hard to advertise your work for other people to put out. So why not advertise it? 
There several outlets and social media sites to promote and advertise your work! It's simple, easy to set up, and most of them are FREE.


FACEBOOK is a great way to set up PAGES to advertise your work. You can easily gain 'likes' in the process and put posts about up and coming projects, as well as photo opportunities for others who would like to be part of your work!

TWITTER as we all know, is practically 'the Seinfeld' of the blogsphere. So, why not say a few witty words to advertise your what your business. In 140 characters or less, TWITTER is a great outlet for those short crafted words to simply keep everyone in the know.

TUMBLR has slowly been climbing the charts in the world of blogging. It's probably the easiest way to advertise your business and work by the simplest form possible. Everything from 'gaining followers, to scheduling posts, TUMBLR will become your best friend. What's even better? You can LINK your Twitter & Facebook to your Tumblr postings. Pretty neat, huh? 

Last, by certainly not least, BLOGSPOT is a great and fun way to post blogs and advertise about anything and everything you'd like. There are simple tools to help you publish everything you want on just a single post. Everything from hyperlinks, to image and video postings, to text editing. It's right there at your finger tips and takes no time at all.

Beyond the Print.

A motion of Jimmy.


For this assignment, I went beyond the normal photographic print and decided to compile multiple photographs into a motion 'gif'. It's fairly simple to create online, but when it comes to taking the photographs, you have to sit the camera very still and take multiple photos of the same setting at the same time. The person, however, can move around in different positions, thus making the motion gif possible. These photos were a compilation of 6 all together.
