EP08 - Iszi Lawrence on branding - comedian, podcaster & Edinburgh poster designer. - a podcast by Simon Caine

In this episode I interviewed comedian, podcaster and Edinburgh Fringe designer Iszi Lawrence.

 After talking about poster, flyer and marketing materials myself and Iszi kept talking about the deeper concepts around branding as a performer and things you can do above and beyond performing live to build audiences. It's a shorter episode as it was unplanned, but I still felt this was worth sharing. 

 We covered -  

• Advice on approaching agents.
• Iszi’s advice on succeeding and staying happy with your work.
• How to think about what you look like on stage.

And more!

My 2nd book is finally out! It's called "How To Make A Living By Working For Free" and you can buy it here for £5 (digital) or £8 (paperback). Here's the synopsis of the book - 

 

The book is a how-to guide for artists to create their own online community for their work and how that community can support the artist to become sustainable in every way.

The book takes a critical and in-depth look at the media's perception of "free content" vs the reality of what the general public see it as.

If you're an artist in the modern age who wants a sustainable audience you're no longer just an artist, you're a community leader.

 

If you'd like to read the first few chapters of the book you can find a PDF version of that here.
