Hey there!
As you may or may not know I'm Kostadin Draganov and I'm a graphic designer. In this blog post I'll introduce myself and tell you what blog content I've planned for the future!
So.. Let's continue. Bulgaria is my birth country but I currently live and study in Munich, Germany. As a creative person I have many more interest than just design. My friends often ask me "How do you manage to do all that you are doing?!" and "How can you find time for all of that?". My answer is always the same - I manage to do it because I like every single step of it!
With that being said let's dive into the basket with my interests!
1. Graphic Design
Let's start with the obvious. Graphic design is a passion of mine for quite a long time. The idea behind helping people to visually express their brand and make it attractive to the customers is really exciting for me! I'm currently studying Media & Communication Management because design must ALWAYS go hand in hand with marketing! In order for me to become a better designer and understand my clients I must know the business side of things.
2. Social Media
Lately I've been watching a lot of videos that explain social media algorithms. I'm fascinated by how much you can do for your business by only being on social media. So all that I've learned I started implementing on my own social media channels. I can say that slowly but surely I'm getting the hang of it and becoming more fluent in social media marketing and social media management.
3. Personal YouTube Channel
Since 2015 I have a YouTube channel in which I used to upload many different videos. Lately I've been focusing on tech unboxing and product reviews. I'm just starting with some videos about what I do as a professional - graphic design, social media & business related videos.
4. Photography & Videography
I am very much into photography and videography! A favorite of mine are photo portraits because all people give a different energy and when you take pictures of them this energy can be felt through the photo! About videography.. my favorite thing to film are tech reviews where I get to style the scene in which the products are filmed.
5. Technology
Living in 21st century I can't help but be fascinated and mind blown by technology. I'm the generation who grew up with old technology like wired home telephones and then BOOM.. 15 years later we have Tesla, self flying drones, foldable phones and much more! It's just a great time for a tech savvy like myself to be alive!
Why Start Blogging?
Starting this blog is something I've wanted to do for a long time but was postponed for a bit due to me not having time and being busy with university. But hey.. now its here and I can embrace it!
The reason behind this blog is my passion to help people by sharing my knowledge about graphic design, social media & technology.
What Content?
In this blog I'm going to share the knowledge and experience I already have and give tips and tricks related to these 3 topics:
1. Graphic Design - tips for graphic designers - "Different Graphic Design Positions", "Typography and Why It's Important", "How To Crush a Brand Identity" etc.
2. Social Media - valuable insights of the Facebook, Instagram & YouTube algorithms and social media marketing tips
