Remote Meeting (See Instructions/Get Zoom Link Emailed)
In this presentation, Erik will discuss how to streamline your workflow as you prepare images of your artwork for submission to exhibitions and contests, so that you are putting your best foot forward and maximizing your success rate. Topics will include a discussion of file types, how best to track entries and organize your catalog, how best to name files and folders, strategies for applying to calls, image resolution and size, and the resizing of images using various programs, with the goal being to make the application process as modular and replicable as possible.
