Online presence
Personal branding Creating a personal website that I can update current and future clients of my design. I have created a website that has a link to blog/cv/website and an about information that informs the client about myself and my specialties. I have created a ‘gallery’ section to view all my personal work that I have created throughout. Once you click on a project that you like it would bring you to another section where you can find out more about that project image. It is a simplfied and easy to use website therefore making it easy for clients to view my live projects.

Clothing Label Prophet Clothing Personal T-shirt designs that I will selling online via ProphetClothing.co.uk (Now LIVE). This is a personal project of mine and co-founder Sam Rogan from Fashion Design in level 06. Since we have both been introduced to each other we have had a passion for fashion design and have both joined together to create ProphetClothing. What started at the start of the year as a project for a third year student has now turned into a collobaration of two designers joining together with similar beliefs of rebellion to create a clothing label.

Photography Photography + editing Photography which leads into video editing is a personal hobby. Since working with photoshop I have a big knowledge in Photoshop therefore editing photos is more enjoyable for myself than taking it as a job. Although I do like it as a hobby, I have found it harder to keep a maintained job therefore, I will be keeping it local and using to benefit my clothing design collection.

Social Media Instagram, Snapchat, Mail. I am very aware that it is important to be aware of social media in a heavy technology based generation. Billboards are already being replaced with snapchat adverts and adverts mainly posted on your telephone. Therefore I have created my own social media network to promote my Graphic/ Fashion design work. I personally use Instagram as I have most followers with this account and will reach the most clients via Instagram. I personally believe it is an easily accessable network that I can promote my work easily and quickly. It can be easily shared too. Another source of social media that I use is snapchat. This is what I mainly use for fashion design as it can give the viewer a video/photo with numerous edits to help benefit the video/pictures. I have been using Snapchat as a source of promoting my clothing label Prophet Clothing.

For my last source of social media I use Gmail with Blood Brother as they keep me updated throughout the email if it is not Blood Brother related which adds more value to a company knowing that they want you to be informed by fashion.
