【NFT Chicken Creator ②】 Experience sharing of selected works

Which work should I use to list the NFT? What else can I do other than prepare the image file? A little little idea to share with creators who are still hesitating to choose a work.

Popularity or long-term business, are all crowded?

After the Airdrop of Tiger Year greeting cards at the end of January, a little confidence gradually accumulated. But the New Year's card is an extra event after all, not my main work, so I tend to continue to let everyone know me.

First, let’s think about what works collectors like?

I have also started collecting NFTs. Although I am only a nano collector in nano, and I can't even pay my own listing fee, I have also begun to establish my own standards. My favorite creator pages have these 3 qualities:

2. How to choose the works on the shelf

Back to being a creator, I think the key to choosing a work is how you want others to see you. I think this is the longest road you can take. Sometimes I see people in the creative community asking, "What do I need to paint to make money?" But if painting can't bring you happiness, you should start with making money. If you find that this style of painting can't make money, should you change it again? The next style of painting, will it continue to cycle with frustration? I don't think NFT is a short-term password for creators to get rich, and it should be regarded as a new opportunity for myself, whether it is to gain experience, make new friends, or be a portfolio. Anyway, let's have fun! The things you don't like really don't do long.

3. My preparations for the works to be put on the shelves

It can be very casual, but there are a lot of extra things you can do

  • Think about the time you can use <br class="smart">Are you a mass creator? Will it cause trouble in real life? Since joining the NFT world, I have found that I spend a lot of time socializing and reading materials, but I am used to spending a lot of time looking for inspiration. I need to work, I want to maintain my schedule, and I want to accompany my relatives and friends. It is too difficult for me to steadily put new works on the shelves. (But in fact, the so-called stable frequency is also a matter of opinion
  • Everyone has different reasons for what kind of image they want to present. <br class="smart">Just want to show the best works, it is no problem to use it as a portfolio for self-recommendation or making friends. My "Painting Film Review" series is the most complete series I have developed. Although the painting style in the early stage is not stable, the change of style and mood is important to me. I also want to test how far the previous style can go, so Available from earlier works. (Also because I want to open an NFT rental studio, the so-called rental studio is a lot of choices)

  • Price and edition
    How do you view the artistic value of your work? Or what positioning do you think your NFT can be used for? If you only want to give fans a small sponsorship to motivate you to continue creating, it is also a consideration. I don't have enough experience to share. I actually put it on the shelves without thinking about the price, so the works are in a state of unlisted and negotiable prices, and then the reserve price is placed in my heart, but I accidentally found that people who like the works have already privately messaged me if they are You can buy it, thank you to every collector~ (Look at the average value of the listed platform first, and then slowly test and adjust it)

  • Write a copy for the work 1. A set of own administrative system: whether it is to put on the NFT, or to make a portfolio or exhibition in the future, it will be much easier. I have 70 works in stock, so I built an excel table library to number the works, and rewrite the short version narration of bilingual works.

    2. A convenient way to find works: The purpose of tag is to find the function. It is necessary to use your own name as a tag . It can be determined purely by visual or series name. The fixed tag can be convenient for fans or themselves to find a specific series of works. For example: My work "Painting Film Critic" has the characteristics of accumulating a large number of film reviews for a long time. When I was doing the curatorial theme [A Thousand Days and a Thousand Nights ENDLESS], I used the common roles in fairy tales to divide the works according to the content. 5 major categories: "hero", "woman", "monster", "people", "me", I found that this is easy to remember, explain the concept and the way of doing activities, so the same settings are also used when the NFT is put on the shelves. , it is convenient to introduce the activities in the future.

    3. Thematic Memories: This is a direct way of telling others what they can call your work. Since my works are the theme of the "Painting Film Review" rental studio, a "Welcome to the "Painting Film Review" rental studio" is added in front of the description of each work to increase memory points, so collectors who come to private message to inquire , it is natural to ask me "when will the rental studio open".
  • Share your works on the shelves. I think 5~7 works can be shared, but because of my early style changes and procrastination, I did not hold the opening event until about 14 works. The next article will share the results of the opening activity of the "Painting Film Review" rental studio.


4. Experience as a creator

  1. find your why
    Why do you want to list NFTs? Playing in NFTs may experience various emotions. You will find that you can make money by creating freely. You may also feel frustrated with the way of web 3 interactive communication. In addition, NFTs and cryptocurrencies are both risky, stable, and choose the way that suits you. Experience will is the greatest treasure.
  2. maintain flexibility
    The change in the NFT circle is really too fast, keep your mentality flexible, and review your own positioning and ideals.
  3. Participate in community exchanges as much as possible and help others to share their experiences with each other, which can save time for individuals to fight alone, and attract more people who are still on the sidelines to play together, expand more users, and have more buyers .
  4. Take a break when you are tired. Socializing, marketing and reading information will consume a lot of creative energy. It’s okay to escape for a few days and experience life .
