SHARE A SNIPPET OF YOUR WORK IN PROGRESS!
Artist, you can share a 25% - 30% closeup/zoomed-in roughdraft either in your instastory or by posting it. Remember to mention/tag @cosmiccowzine
Writers, you can share a few sentences of what you worked on. Remember to mention/tag @cosmiccowzine
Graphic Designers, you can share a bit of what you worked on, or just hype up the zine by telling your followers a bit about what you're working on and mention/tag @cosmiccowzine
For the first promo, contributors can share about 30% of their work so far.
YOU CAN DO A QUICK SKETCH OR A FULLY FINISHED PIECE.
It doesn't matter too much, as long as you officially announce it on your social media account. We want the zine to do well, so we gotta get more eyes on the project.
1) Draw Taylor reading the zine. Yes, you can show a specific page inside the zine (just don't reveal the entire page—you can cover the page with Taylor's hand or a prop). Also, yes, you can draw Taylor in any era, or more than one version of herself reading the zine (like a group shot).
2) The caption must include a brief description of the zine. Something like this:
"I've been working on this project for a while now, and I'm so excited to announce that preorders are now open! Preorders are open from July 13- August 5. TAYLOR is a Taylor Swift fanzine created to feel like a scrapbook/magazine. We take a trip down memory lane to revisit our favorite stages and moments. This 90 page zine includes music video spreads, recaps and quizzes! You can order it on the cosmiccowzine shop (shop.cosmiccowzine.com) or click the link in the @cosmiccowzine bio. Everyone has done such an amazing job, please check it out!"
You can copy and paste it, but we recommend that you make it personal. As long as you include the zine's shop link (shop.cosmiccowzine.com) and mention @cosmiccowzine, it's good. That way your followers know where to buy the zine and know which account to find more info and updates.
YOU CAN CREATE A GIF.
Be sure to submit the gif you made to the GIF agreement form (to be provided later by the mod).
If you choose the gif option for your promo, please make the gif something related to the fandom theme or something you think would be useful for promoting the zine (example: Shop now! Take my money, Awesome!)
Yes, graphic designers and writers can choose this option for promos.
Reshare, reshare, reshare! Support the zine and promote it by resharing other contributors' promo pieces. Hype up the preorders, tell your followers about the shop and the super awesome zine!
Writers, you can share a short paragraph from a few of your interviews.
Graphic Designers, you can share a closeup of your graphic work on the zine.
Share your piece! Remember to mention the leftover sales dates/shop website and @cosmiccowzine in the caption!
Later after the preorder period ends, we're having leftover sales. This gives people who missed the preorders a second chance to get their hands on the zine and merch.
Artists, you can share your full image once the leftover sales begins. Important note for artists: If you share your full image including the graphic designer's logo/branding, be sure to give proper credit and tag them in that post!
Writers and Graphic Designers, you can share your contribution to the zine on your account.
Share a picture of your contributor package!
Give your followers a taste of what they would get if they buy the zine and merch during the leftover sales. Hype up the project we all worked hard on. Remember to mention the leftover sales dates/shop website and @cosmiccowzine in the caption!
SUPER AWESOMENESS (DO BOTH)!
Share your piece and a picture of the bundle! Remember to mention the leftover sales dates/shop website and @cosmiccowzine in the caption!
