First year of uni but I’ve already got a bachelors degree in pretending to be on the phone to dodge anyone handing out flyers at the front of the library

@laurensemple3 don't blink or you'll miss it

@Lukesinclair48 surely not

@FutArcade Not bad

Show me your 85+ TOTW pack 👇

@alexm4stro Ah rough, the cracked rewards are justified then, keen to see your Neymar this week

@Lukesinclair48 Van Nistelrooy so I've definitely been removed from the red list, honestly one of the worst ones hahaha

Back on my own digital artefact grind

DA contextual report for my project 'Sincflash' this semester in #bcm114 lukesinclair48.wordpress.com/2022/10/19/sin…

This weeks flash was assisted by a collaboration with @kate_rob1! Massive fan of her style - thank you so much for the assistance 👽💀 #bcm114 instagram.com/p/CjWccGYPcPL/…

@WinstonNeville4 @im_alana_ Road to 100k 🥹

@im_alana_ I see your 314 and I raise you….

Was off work for a week and a half and I had 314 unread emails - new record 😩

Lenard Schuurmans aka ‘lennyflash’ is an artist that has succeeded in doing this - his flash page has amassed over 60 thousand followers, while his professional tattoo page has grown to 10 thousand throughout this process. #bcm114

The design/idea of this somewhat ‘pathway’ is that the engagement garnered on the flash page will in turn, bring attention over to the business page, as well as open up the potential to sell prints and other tangible goods. #bcm114

Artists, particularly tattoo artists, have begun running a separate Instagram profile to highlight their flash designs, optimising the use of Reels to boost engagement on their profile. #bcm114 1/2

I’ll be damned

A clothing brand is apparently sending me some clothes to post in 😅 I’ll believe this when it’s delivered to my front door ~ stay tuned 👽

@maxgeorgia_ Absolutely deserved 💅

@Lukesinclair48 I’ve just given myself a break after copying and pasting the template into a google doc 🤩

Giving myself a well deserved break after finishing the introduction for my report after half a week of procrastination 🫡 #bcm111

#bcm114 DA update ~ this week I have acquired an Apple Pencil and have been moving my illustrations to @Procreate, still getting used to how it all works but it’s honestly game changing for creating on the go

He tries to keep his feed to his own style as those posts are successful on his account, as much as he enjoys tattooing other styles. Instagram somewhat dictates what artists post and lots of artists are slaves to the algorithm in order to do succeed on the platform. #bcm114

#bcm114 Tattoo artists have to somewhat bow to the Instagram algorithm in order to maximise reach on their posts. After a conversation with one particular artist ‘Zak’, he told me that while he enjoys tattooing traditional pieces 1/2

Blog 2: Project iterations & feedback loops #bcm114 lukesinclair48.wordpress.com/2022/09/18/blo…

Artists as well as creators in general are always trying to figure out what the Instagram algorithm wants in a video in order to push its reach greater on the app - Ryan Smallman is an artist that integrates his art into Reels as well as images quite successfully. #bcm114

With the introduction of Instagram Reels in 2019, it has been an extremely important tool used by artists to increase engagement with their current audience, but more importantly in expanding that audience as well. #bcm114 1/2
