LAUAN502: Responsibility on Social media


Over the past week I ran into a trouble of miscommunication with my employers at RoosterTeeth. The problem was me wanting to release my version of the poster for the show that has already been out in the public, but failing to wait for appropriate permissions from the company, which got me into a little trouble with the head of Animation. Fortunately enough, what I put out was only a little snip bit of the full thing which doesn’t present any new information from whats already out there, so he was quite forgiving, explaining to me that the purpose of doing this was not to confuse the audience on what/how the show is going to look (as this poster was done quite a while back and we’re currently going through a process of changing the look of the show). This experience also highlights the prominent of role on social media now, as being a concept artist/ insider, I’m a legit source of information for the public and anything that I put out now will be an extension of what the company itself, so it calls for much more careful consideration, not only in the content of my post but also my public image- all needed knowledge for the digital-age professional
