Project Description: 

Over the past 4 years, I have gotten my feet wet in the world of freelance journalism. Last time I submitted a piece of my work, it  did receive great feedback, yet I had to make sure it was a piece of work that was done over the time I have been a student here at Full Sail. I chose to submit a recent post that I did for one of the websites that I work for earlier this week. The post I chose to use for this submission is a mini write-up on a hip hop artist  from Milwaukee,  WI  and his name is Vincent VanGreat. The reason I chose to submit a website post, is because I want you to see that it is a lot of work to make a post for a well-known website. 

When the artist contacts me for a post or if I feel that the artist deserve a post, I search for the content myself. So to say, with this post, all I seen was his music video on youtube. I did some research on the artist and made the bio up by myself. I went on looking for photos to the front page of the post and also the embed link for the youtube video. I then placed the bio, pictures, and video on the post. Soon after, I had to make certain words stand out buy making some "bold" and " italic". Then I added active links to where I spoke about his upcoming projects, website, and his name.

 You can see this and click the links that are highlighted in the color red. After that, I had to add hashtags, so the post will be easy to find on the net for not only the artists, but also their supporters. Many people think that making a post for a web site is easy as cutting and pasting, but it isn't. It is hard work, especially if you have no idea what you are doing. When you click the link below,  please feel free to read the write-up I did on the artist, and click the active links.  This is just a piece of my work that I have done over the years while I have been attending Full Sail. Just click the name DYMEndzInc under the embed video and you can see previous posts I have done for www.JackThriller.com or  search #NOWTHATSHIPHOP  and you will see more of my work, interviews, and previous radio shows.

Feedback Received: 

I always received great feedback for my work. When I reached out to the artist  he was very happy that I took the time out to make a post about him, his music video, and his upcoming project. One of the reasons I enjoy doing things like this is because when I was younger and wanted to be an artist, I never had this type of outlet. Now that I do have an outlet for artists, I want to share it with them and put them on a platform that I feel that they deserve.
