Social media research

 Today I looked at a singers social media posts around the time she released an album.

At first I looked on a website with a list of up and coming artists and found a one with a similar style to our singer.

After that I looked on youtube for her and taped on one of her videos (“Liza”) to get her social media accounts links from the description. 

After that I just searched “Zsela EP release date” and I found out she released it on the 24th of April. The next step was to look at her instagram and Twitter account and scroll until I would get to her posts around the release date. After finding the posts I started to take screenshots of the posts from 4 weeks before and after the release date. Then, I went onto Canva and created a mind map of the screenshots of the posts which I just arranged chronologically from up to down. 

Doing this helped me get a better understanding on how an artist similar to the one we choose advertised her own EP for free, as social media nowadays give all artists the opportunity to be advertised regardless of their financial status. However we could argue connections do help some get out there easier then others (e.g. Dua Lipa).
