Stop Motion for Content Creation: An Interview with Kofi Dotse
There are very few things that make us as happy as people being successful in what they love. It’s this very idea that is at the core of our brand’s values: it’s so thrilling to see people do good work, and get recognized for it!
We love the idea of using stop motion for content creation. As a small business, entrepreneur, or even large business, it can be hard to keep up with the demand of how much content creation is expected. And even if you do have the numbers, it can be hard to make sure all your content creation stands out.
When it comes to social media, the market can sometimes be oversaturated with entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, and overall success stories! And while these success stories are compelling, they rarely provide the right kind of advice for people who are just looking to get started. The ability to produce content and to master content creation is a skill and a practice: it’s not something that comes second nature to most people! Making engaging, thrilling content is hard at first: especially if you’re getting started during the less-than-inspirational period we are currently going through.
So, in this blog post, we’re featuring social media strategist and extraordinaire, Kofi Dotse! He shares how he got to where he is, what he loves doing best, and his best tips for social media success! Keep reading below to learn more about the world of social media strategy and content creation.
