Here's ~2000 words I have to show for my efforts. I just wanted to write some tips for being an AD in a licensed game, but I kept having to backtrack and explain what an AD does normally. It's incomplete and very rough. Happy to take comments though. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Art Directing a Board Game
You face a blank card, or a blank board, or blank box. Blank, blank, blank. You have the game text, maybe some icons and frames, but it’s got a blank spot that you set aside for future consideration. ...

Hey tabletop folk. I know many of you struggle with self-promotion, so let me help!

Are you working on something cool?
Do you provide services?
Written a good article?
Taken an ace photo?
Run an event?

Post below and let's get a self-promotion mega thread going!
(I'll create LISTS with this info)

I’ll be reposting a lot more here cuz of how this system works.

A “heart” doesn’t impact “the algorithm” how we’ve been trained.

Gotta repost what I find impactful, or want to get more eyes on, or the accounts I want my pals to find.

Social media is ephemeral & this is how we influence here.
