The Dots - Questions

Interviewing The Dots - Leanne Hammill
Intro
The Dots are an online networking site for creative people.

Questions
  1. Who are The Dots for?
  2. How did The Dots come about?
  3. How does The Dots work?
  4. What are the key things you should be thinking about when promoting yourself and your work? Especially the relationship between yourself as an individual and your work.
  5. Should the portfolio be specific to a specialist area, or is it better to show a variety of work?
  6. What do you personally look for in a portfolio, and what makes a successful portfolio?
  7. A lot of us here are studying illustration, you obviously work in the creative industries in a less traditional way, (than for example being a photographer or illustrator). What opportunities do you think there are for people who want to work more broadly within the creative industries? What was your journey to get to where you are?
  8. What is the best piece of advice you would give to a recent graduate in the creative industries?
Extras - other things to ask about?
  • Releasing an app (new) - makes it more accessible to contact people and network on the go.
  • Vibe of the brand - friendly yet professional. How to get this balance right?
