“We’ve exhausted all our stock photography resources!” said Io Chaney of Black Girl Venture. I nodded in agreeance as I see so many non-profits and businesses who can’t find their target market imagery and own the rights to the imagery. It’s important that you create a bank of content that you can use for at least 3-6 months of content. Even more scenarios of your day-to-day services and activities when rebranding your website and marketing strategy. An extensive shot list was planned with every possible event that occurs we could think of, prop list, branded products, 2 set locations over 2 days, what emotions occur, what happens when you win or accomplish something, what tools do you use, who is your target market and what does she do…Told you. I try to think of EVERYTHING!
