37. How We Plan Our Content: "We can't just yell at a camera..."

The Mud Peddlers: Ceramic Art Behind the Scenes

Lindsey and Donte discuss how they plan their content -- both for their social media and for the items they make.

There's talk of what events on their calendar shape their practice, what's unique about creating content as ceramic artists, and why what they share on social media corresponds -- or doesn't -- with their day-to-day studio life.

How about you? Do you meticulously plan out your content, or do you post on the fly? What calendar events (from the school year to the fall and winter holidays) do you take into account when you sit down to create?
