Whether it's for your website, an application for funding, a job, marketing, press, or more, you need to show off your best work. Documenting and storing your work regularly is an essential part of creating a healthy and vibrant artistic business. 

Utilize the following information below:

Documentation 

• What kind of work do you make? Does it require photographs, video, audio recording, print, or in-depth descriptions?

• Your documentation should be the most thorough, accurate, and literal record of the existence of your work.

• ALL work presented must be representative of the most professional quality.

Organization

• Create a process to document your work.

• Find & decide on a storage system - Find out if you would rather have your work saved to an external hard drive, cloud storage, or hard copies. It is strongly recommended to have both physical and digital copies. 

• Get creative in finding documentation resources - If you are not a photographer/videographer/audio engineer yourself barter with local artists in your network to document your work at a professional level.

• Digital file naming - Make sure that the name is descriptive of the content and includes your name or the name of your artistic business in the event that you need to share the file.
