Today’s episode is all using media in creative ways to capture the attention of your audience.

Some ways that you as an influencer can be creative with media to 

Emojis - using these characters to generate an emotional response

Video - used in lots of different ways

Time Lapse

Stop Motion

Boomerang

Filters on Snapchat

Use models, even if you only show hands or the backs of your models

Selfies in a subtle way

Make surroundings the subject, not yourself

Sporting events where the larger crowd is the focus

GIF's (pronounced with a "g", not a "j")

Great way of re-enforcing a comment or other comment about a brand, event or other post

Cinemagraphs - stills with portions that are animated. Created with apps and other software

Use the phone's tools like screenshots or recording your screen to show how to do certain mobile functions or actions

Drones are becoming more affordable and generate amazing content

Don't forget to practice! Some are not as natural taking selfies and other media but with a little work you can get to be great!

And tools like the a selfie stick or an Osmo (not an affiliate link!) can be used to make your shots better by extending your reach and putting your phones in interesting positions.
