Being creative has always been more than just about, well,
being creative. You can be the world’s greatest
literary/artistic/singing/tap-dancing/filmic genius, but if you don’t share
your work with others, only your mum will ever know.
And if you are the slightest bit serious about putting your
talents in front of an audience (maybe even making money from it), you have to
make use of whatever social networking comes your way. It often sounds
daunting, but is quite simple. It simply means making friends – in person or
online. Now, I know us creative types have a reputation for being curmudgeonly
loners, but it is unfounded. When we start out we are nervous about others’
reaction to our work. But talking and sharing with fellow writers/artists/singers/tap-dancers/film
makers gives us the opportunity to tap into a vast community through which we
can learn to improve our own skills, help others with theirs and spread the
word about what we do.
One such avenue is one I found on Facebook recently.
Stoosh PR
In their own words:
FB networking arm of the retainer based NYC cross platform
marketing, branding and PR initiative.
Authority from experience without the self aggrandizing floss!
Originally from England STOOSHPR’s Jane Buchanan started her career as producer and presenter of the SONY award winning show "Streetlife" on the BBC. From radio she moved on to television with seasons as Entertainment Producer for the network Granada TV show, "This Morning" and later "Jameson Tonight" on Sky TV.
Headhunted from Sky TV by Sir Bob Geldof and Lord Waheed Alli’s company at 25yrs old, she was appointed to the position of US Producer for Planet 24 Productions. Based out of NYC she coordinated and produced all US strands for the controversial show "The Word" and later, "The Big Breakfast".
When Planet 24 relocated to LA to produce the successful "Survivor" reality show, Jane decided to make NYC her home and continues to live and work in the media. She has held positions at New Video Group/Docurama (Home Video arm of A&E/The History Channel), Disney Theatrical (Lion King, Mary Poppins and Phil Collins' Tarzan) Maxim Magazine/Dennis Publishing, and Bad Boy Entertainment hand picked by Sean P Diddy Combs.
