Instagram now lets you archive posts, which removes the image from your profile while still saving the post in a separate spot for your own viewing. This helps clean up your page without losing posts of personal value. It will also allow you to place the post back on your page in its original chronological position

Just finished watching this season & season 2. I have to rate season 1 higher. It seemed...more human. There were vulnerabilities, discussions, the crew Aaron as in episode 7 chipping in. It didn't feel like Master Do standing in front of the class and teaching, but like Master Do sitting in a circle with the students and staff and everyone learning and contributing. Season 2 had the, "You are there and I am here" feel to it that is common in most TV competition shows, and which I think isn't always the best strategy. This season though was engaging. Could also be the fact that it had fewer contestants, so back and forth dialogues were easy? Anyway, from both seasons I have learnt a lot. Muchas Gracias to everyone who made both seasons possible and also to the contestants for allowing us to learn through and with them ♥️.

@rizaan4786 6 жыл бұрын
Loooove your channel and content, so insightful! Also just for future reference (or should I say, futur* reference?? Ba dum tss) I'd think twice about taking their social media's follower count as your first impression. I know it's kind of inevitable because of Insta's layout but these days you can very easily buy followers or even likes from anyone and that'll basically direct a lot of numbers to our accounts without us having to do much, and regardless of our content. So if it's possible I'd say look at their feed/content first, and then move to the engagement etc and whether or not that would make sense. Just a thought! But awesome and helpful video guys, and I think all the designers mentioned have great talent too. Cheers!

Love the show, great feedback on the portfolio. Scoring at the end is fine, if you actually do it, dropping a curve-ball of "scoring will come in the next episode" is cheating me as a viewer. again love the show, be proud of it, you don't need this type of hook to make people come back.

well, yeah. I didn't properly write what I meant, my bad. I kind of pictured something like rating and feedback for portfolios of viewers as a series, but not as in-depth as this series - like every video, different viewers would be rated and given feedback on their portfolio and maybe follow-up on changes.

One thing that is left out, although it would be too hard to calculate and too invasive (possibly)... but consider taking into account how much people are making on these jobs. Having a lot of work and a good following is awesome, but making money is just as important. (that is a big reason why we do it)
@thefutur 6 жыл бұрын
from a coaching point of view, that's not important to us. money is not a measure of quality of work.

@yurieaureole 6 жыл бұрын
yes, and that takes 2 more clicks with an unknown factor of wether the playlist appears easily under the playlist tab or not. So it's a good competition with the manual searching method. I sometimes see suggested videos embedded inside the video and thought this would be a solution, but I have no idea how easy/hard that is! Just pouring some feedback on ya :)
