Hello!
Have you ever thought, "I want more people to see the pictures and illustrations I've drawn!"?
Now that social media has become widespread, it has become easier to have people other than family and friends see your drawings.
However, if you're going to upload a work that you've worked so hard to create to social media, you want it to catch the eye of as many people as possible.
So, this time I would like to introduce some points to keep in mind when uploading your own work on TikTok✨

①Tips for uploading your work to social media: TikTok edition
TikTok currently has around 1.3 billion users worldwide. It is a social networking site that specializes in videos and is an essential app for trend-conscious young people.
Some of you may be wondering, "Why would I upload pictures and illustrations even though I specialize in videos?"
However, on TikTok, where videos of a wide range of genres are posted every second, "illustration videos" are quite popular and in high demand.
For example, illustration videos can vary in content, such as making-of videos that explain the process of completing a work, past drawing comparison videos that show the artist's growth by comparing past drawings with current ones, and music video-style videos that connect illustrations to the lyrics of popular songs.
Let's create a video that suits your style!
- Choose a popular song
One thing you should pay attention to when uploading pictures to TikTok is the audio source you add to the video .
On other social media platforms, still images are sufficient, but when it comes to showcasing images through video, sound is essential.
Popular music on TikTok changes constantly, so it's important to choose songs that are popular at the moment.
By using a popular song, you may significantly increase the chances that people who search for that song will see your post.
・(For making-of videos) Do not use a finished image as the thumbnail
In the case of a making-of video that shows how to draw a picture, if the finished image is visible in the thumbnail, there's not much point in posting the video...
To get the viewer to imagine and look forward to what the picture will look like from here, it's a good idea to use a thumbnail that shows a rough draft or a part of the finished drawing!
・Recommended hashtags
The third point is to use a #hashtag so that lots of people can see it !
This applies to all social media platforms, but the words and content vary slightly depending on the platform. Here, we will introduce some recommended hashtags for uploading pictures to TikTok.

②About FROM ARTIST
So far, we have introduced some points to keep in mind when uploading pictures or illustrations to TikTok.
It's nice to have so many people see the work you've worked so hard on.
Well, have you ever thought, "I want to sell the artwork I've drawn!"?
If you are someone who regularly draws a lot of pictures, you have probably thought this at least once.
For those people, we highly recommend our website " FROM ARTIST" 🌟
FROM ARTIST currently has approximately 300 artists on its roster, and is a service that allows anyone to easily sell their artwork .
We aim to create a place where artists can showcase their artwork to enthusiasts around the world, and where each work, regardless of whether it is famous or unknown, will be properly evaluated .
There are no initial or monthly fees. Once a work is sold, you will be paid a system usage fee of 20% of the sales price.
・FROM ARTIST also has these projects!
FROM ARTIST is not just a service for selling artworks.
In order to fully support the success of our artists, we will not only create columns and special features on this website to introduce works on various themes, but will also use social media such as Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok to share your work with the world .
Also, starting in May, we will be holding a special exhibition called "A Journey Through Japan's 47 Prefectures! Art Journey," where people from all over the country can see the works in person, not just online.
There will be a contest where visitors can vote , and you can also be present in the gallery (advance reservation required), so you can get a feel for the customers' reactions on the spot.
This is a great opportunity for artists to expand their opportunities to shine.
