I've got a new video out! Watch as I draw a page from my short The Mare the Merrier from the upcoming MANthology.
I like drawin' comics FAST-- but to be fair, this is Hollywood magic special effects where I use the computer to speed myself up 2000%. Want to see more of my comics? Check out my website: www.joiefoster.com

These days almost everyone has a side hustle! Creating content such as streaming video games, selling on Etsy, creating videos, and writing blogs have become so commonplace that you likely know someone within spitting distance who does it. Maybe it's even YOU! And if it is you, you know that all the advice on "how to start a Youtube channel, blog, Twitter, etc" yields the advice of "you’ve GOT to have branding!"

Branding is defined as a "look" for your online & social media presence. Maybe it's a banner on your Twitter, a user icon on Twitch, or title cards in your video. You want someone to see your various outlets online and be able to immediately recognize that it's YOU. Good branding will boost your business and image... bad branding will undermine it.

That's where someone like me comes in. What better way to brand yourself than with a cartoon? It could be your cat, what your content is about (games? baking? fishing? even coding!), or it could even be of yourself-- the possibilities are endless.

When a client comes to me, we start by having a chat about how what it is they do, what they create, and how they want to come across to their audience. After we chat I provide sketch options, and after we put our heads together, I come up with the final piece for them to use. I typically work for clients who represent a light-hearted, humorous feel-- with great results!
