Creative Matters

Creative Matters is a soundcloud account brought to us by creative Skillset in association with Hiive. the pre recorded audio sessions offer advice and inspiration with the hope of empowering talent with tips and information that you need to know about the industry. The monthly show started in 2015, adding soundcloud to their already extensive social media tools magnifies Creative Skillset's online presence. This integration has made accessing their content easy and convenient for people seeking their services.

Episodes 2 and 3 of the series touches on the topic of self-promotion, and desired industry skills. each segment of the show is constructive and breaks down the necessary information into feasible sizes. After listening to episode 2 I realised a lot about myself, the fundamental skills I already possess and the next steps I need to take to attain the ones I do not yet have. For me, the best piece of advice given in the Lifting the Lid segment was to be ruthless when putting showreels and portfolios together. Listening to your initial doubts and allowing your best work to shine without being over shadowed by mediocre pieces of work.
