In the fall of 2022, I had the genuine privilege of working with my favorite musical artist, Midtown, to promote their upcoming tour. Selected for my work creating tribute content as part of a personal project with my friends (@Decaydancehypehouse), I made content and advised a best practice for posting schedules.
What started as a project among longtime friends soon grew much bigger than any of us could have imagined. Although our content catered to a small, niche audience, we found incredible success within that community, especially with cross-posting our content to Facebook and Twitter.
In 2022, we decided to stop posting in order to focus on our studies, since we were struggling to continue the schedule we maintained earlier in our college careers. Despite this, I'll never forget the memories made or the fun we had brainstorming content, making and editing videos, and finding a community with some of my best friends.
How often do you get an opportunity to say "I'm with the band"? In the fall of 2022, I got to help promote Midtown's upcoming tour, with guidance on posting schedules, social media best practices, and even make a few videos of my own!
