What Is A Content Creator & Are You One?
Join my FREE Online Course: Intro to Music Streaming & Touring with Nick Wyatt
Over the past year, writing and creating content has provided me with a different sense of introspection. By observing, mastering and studying a number of different content formats across several mediums.
I have gained a greater knowledge around the art of creating content itself.
Developing content has helped me to create value through insights, sources and searching for what audiences are looking for next within a community.
Embarking on this journey has produced a number of questions — some deeply rooted, some superficial. With creativity always being the centerpiece, surrounded by individuality, formulas and data-backed schemes.
The task of creativity itself, made me ask the question:
Being from Atlanta, growing up and having the opportunity to see creativity from a number of different perspectives made me realize that great content starts and ends with writing. This form of expression opens up every other avenue of creativity.
If your goal is to be a podcaster, public speaker, musician, politician, educator, etc. All of these feats have their origins in writing, spreading a message and uniting individuals around a common interest. The virtues of writing form the basis of all other content formats and mediums.
We are all drawn back together by this simple but powerful art form.
The beauty behind creating content is that it challenges us to operate on a certain level and at a specific mental capacity that goes beyond mere consumption. You view commercials differently, you notice the targeted audiences behind advertising, etc.
Creating content demands a combination of left-brained and right-brained liveliness which encompasses consistency, planning and execution.
