Intro to IR: Answering Question

Nabilah Az-zahro- New Zealand

1.    Apa itu Nasionalisme?

Banyak diantara kita yang sering mendengar kata nationalism atau nasionalisme, namun hanya sedikit orang yang memahami arti dan makna dari nasionalisme itu sendiri. Orang hanya sesekali mengucap nasionalisme tanpa tahu dalamnya konotasi yang ada. Disamping itu, kita juga mengenal kata identitas negara, namun apakah sudah banyak orang yang mengetahui betapa pentingnya identitas suatu negara dan bentuknya apakah sama dengan identitas manusia pada umumnya? Bahkan, negara juga memiliki berbagai jenis power atau kekuatan yang dapat mengubah dunia. Apakah kekuatan ini semacam sihir atau bahkan hal semacamnya? Kita akan bahas berikut ini.

Nasionalisme merupakan bentuk pengabdian untuk kepentingan bangsa sendiri di atas kepentingan negara lain yang diduga menjadi kekuatan paling penting dalam politik dunia dalam dua abad terakhir (Pevehouse & Goldstein, 2017: 135). Ideologi nasionalisme, yang menyebar dengan kuat dapat menentukan dan mengubah nasib sendiri, yang secara virtual menjamin bahwa penduduk yang diduduki akan bangkit melawan penjajah (Dunne, Kurki & Smith, 2013: 81). Artinya, nasionalisme ini merupakan hal yang sangat penting dalam kehidupan bernegara terutama untuk mempertahankan kedaulatan. Nasionalisme akan tetap menjadi kekuatan ideologis yang kuat untuk masa mendatang (Pevehouse & Goldstein, 2017: 35).

 2.      Mengapa identitas nasional berperan penting dalam membangun hubungan antarnegara?

Identitas yang dimaksud hampir sama dengan identitas pada diri manusia biasa. Identitas manusia biasanya tercatat dalam Kartu Tanda Penduduk (KTP), terdiri dari nama, tempat tanggal lahir, alamat rumah, dan sebagainya. Sedangkan identitas yang dimaksud dalam negara merupakan suatu ciri khas atau pembeda suatu negara dengan negara lain. Contohnya seperti identitas di Indonesia ada pancasila, UUD 1945, lagu nasional Indonesia Raya, wilayah kesatuan Republik Indonesia, dan sebagainya. Kesatuan dan identitas suatu bangsa berasal dari organisasi politik, dan negara secara logis berada di depan bangsa (Knutsen, 1992: 167). Artinya, mayoritas identitas yang ada di suatu negara ini dipengaruhi politik.  

Identitas tidak hanya menjadi pembeda, namun Fungsi lainnya dari perspektif identitas adalah untuk menghasilkan hubungan damai antar negara (Berenskoetter, 2010: 4). Selain itu, identitas dapat menentukan bagaimana negara memandang interaksi antarnegara. Membahas identitas, perlu diketahui bahwa negara dan bangsa memiliki makna yang berbeda. Negara adalah sebuah entitas politik yang terorganisasi dan memberikan keinginan serta kehendaknya kepada orang-orang yang berada di dalam batas-batas wilayahnya (Minix and Hawley: 1998: 76). Sedangkan, bangsa atau nation lebih menjurus pada sebuah kelompok yang sudah terspesialisasikan sebagai kelompok orang yang merasakan keterikatan kebersamaan berdasarkan kebudayaan, sejarah, kepercayaan, ataupun ikatan kebahasaan (Minix and Hawley, 1997: 77).

 3.      Ilustrasikan power yang ada di Hubungan Internasional dan berikan contoh pada tiap sub kategorinya!

Ada tiga pembagian power atau kekuatan dalam Hubungan Internasional. Pertama ada hard power yang merupakan kekuatan yang menggunakan cara koersi dalam pelaksanaannya. Biasanya banyak digunakan dalam bidang militer dan bersifat materialistik. Contohnya kekuatan militer Indonesia yang kini menjadi militer terbaik di Asean. Kedua ada soft power yaitu cara yang dilakukan aktor melalui hubungan diplomasi, biasanya ada dalam hal kultur, ideologi, kesamaan, dan identitas. Contohnya ialah penggunaan budaya K-pop oleh Korea Selatan sebagai kekuatan menyebarkan kultur dan menarik minat negara lain. Terakhir adalah smart power, dianggap menjadi terobosan baru dalam kekuatan, yaitu penggabungan soft dan hard power yang contohnya adalah penggunaan energi nuklir.

Usa instagram como tu sketchbook, no portfolio:

Por: A.doro

A tres personas les ha gustado tu post que se llevó cuatro horas hacer. Refrescas el inicio y tu publicación se perdió entre memes, selfies y gatitos. Tal vez no has usado los hashtags adecuados o quizá publicaste en una hora inadecuada… Lo cierto es que la falta de interacción te ha dado bajona y empiezas a cuestionar tu talento.

Si no perteneces a ese porcentaje de la población que usa internet como una extensión de su día, todo perfecto, pero si te preguntas por qué otras personas sí lo hacen pues basta con decirte que los seres humanos somos seres sociales por naturaleza, ahí radica la importancia de las redes sociales, independientemente de tus habilidades de comunicación, las redes están ahí para expresarte y darte a entender a tu manera. 

  De los soportes

Si al hablar de portfolios lo primero que te viene a la mente es una persona cargando una carpeta gigante llena de hojas y los trabajos que ha hecho durante toda su vida, necesitamos pausar esto y primero dejar en claro lo que es un portfolio. Según Sandra López de la agencia de ilustradores Pencil, un portafolio es una selección de lo mejor de nuestro trabajo y se construye en base a los siguientes objetivos; que sea un reflejo de lo que somos como ilustradores, debe hablar de lo que hacemos y responder a las necesidades de nuestro cliente. 

Esto no significa que deba ser físico o virtual, puede presentarse en diferentes soportes, teniendo la creatividad como límite. Las redes sociales son uno de ellos. 

En otro punto tenemos los sketchbook también conocidos en español como cuaderno de bocetos que no buscan responder las necesidades de ningún cliente ni hablar de lo que hacemos sino de expresarnos libremente y llevar un orden de nuestro proceso creativo, y para esto, las redes también pueden funcionar.

El feed perfecto

Cuando estamos empezando a dibujar es común que busquemos crear un estilo para destacar de los demás y crear un lenguaje como los artistas grandes que seguimos, sin embargo, al igual que cualquier otra actividad, esto no se va a dar de la noche a la mañana sin antes aprender a prueba y error. Por eso mismo no debes quedarte con la idea de crear un feed perfecto y preocuparte por la estética de tu cuenta de Instagram.

Esto me remite a una clase de dibujo en la que el profesor nos hizo un comentario refiriéndose a que los ejercicios que hacíamos en clase y los materiales que usábamos formaban parte del estilo, así también como los artistas que seguíamos y todas las referencias que teníamos de experiencias como películas, sitios, juguetes de la infancia, etc.

Un señor llamado Henry Wadsworth una vez dijo ¨Da lo que tienes. Para algunos eso puede ser mucho más de lo que tú puedas creer¨. Piensa en qué es lo que más te gusta de los usuarios que sigues, ¿la interacción que tienen contigo? ¿Conocer sobre su estilo de vida? ¿Ver su trabajo? ¿Ver su proceso creativo? El lenguaje de las redes sociales no es tan diferente a la comunicación común, en sí sigue funcionando el mismo sistema: Emisor > mensaje > receptor. < retroalimentación. 

A las personas nos encanta la opinión de los demás, por esa misma razón siempre nos vamos a leer los comentarios del producto cuando queremos comprar algo en Amazon, o preguntamos que tipo de materiales o programa usa cierto artista que seguimos.

De igual forma, piensa que lo que te gustaría ver a ti, puedes empezar por publicarlo tú. Olvidate de darle ese toque frío a tu feed y personalízalo con publicaciones de sketches, ideas, *wips, cosas que te hagan sentir bien e influencias que tengas. Eso le dará un toque más orgánico a tu perfil. 

Es importante que tengas en claro que, como ilustrador, artista, no puedes usar el Instagram ni ninguna otra plataforma creativa como una red social más, entiéndase esto como publicar cosas demasiado personales, pero lo que sí estaría bien que hicieras sería adaptarla y hablarnos más de tu proceso creativo en ella.

Keep Alive The Dream

We made a film! "Keep Alive The Dream" airs Monday on OPB and at Hollywood Theatre. The film documents African-American communities in Oregon honoring MLK's legacy. Please check it out..

Working as an archivist and producer on the project, this was a monumental undertaking. We pulled roughly six decades of footage featuring Albina's activists, community leaders, artists, musicians, and youth. We documented the Albina community's historic struggle for peace and social justice, and made space for pioneers in the community to speak on those issues. 

Culminating in World Arts Foundation's MLK celebration, our film showcases Black Joy and the culture-building that community events such as this can provide.

Working with these two gentleman has been an incredible ride - executive producer Kenneth W. Berry and director Elijah Hasan. Pulling from World Arts Foundation's vast archive of material + navigating the guidelines of OPB's broadcast standards was no easy task. We put in some heavy hours. Shout out to Donny Adair for his narration. And not least of all, our executive director "aka The Boss Lady" Ms. Sandra Wadsworth, for keeping us together and focused!

In some respects, this film is just the beginning. We'll have some exciting news to share in the coming weeks, regarding our future preservation work in Albina. We're building capacity as we speak! And it's not without the support of community members and local orgs that have been supporting us along the way. You know who you are!

So please, if you like...check out our film. The live screening is at 3pm on Monday, January 17, 2022 at Hollywood Theatre. We've reduced the capacity to 50% and closed concessions, so there will be strict masking and distancing. The film airs again that evening on OPB at 7pm. Keep alive the dream!

Intro to IR: Answering Question

Nailah Syauqi Awwalun-072011233085-Finland

1.     What is Nationalism?

Ada beberapa definisi nasionalisme menurut buku yang saya baca. Menurut Blanton dan Kegley (2017), nasionalisme didefinisikan sebagai pola pikir yang mengagungkan negara bagian dan kelompok kebangsaan yang tinggal di dalamnya, yang memandang kepentingan negara sebagai nilai tertinggi. Sedangkan menurut Pevehouse dan Goldstein (2017) nasionalisme berarti pengidentifikasian dengan dan pengabdian untuk kepentingan bangsa seseorang. Biasanya melibatkan sekelompok besar orang yang berbagi identitas nasional dan seringkali bahasa, budaya, atau leluhur.

2.     Why national identity plays significant role in building relation among nation states?

Menurut Kowert & Legro (1996), identitas nasional merupakan pedoman dan petuntuk bagi aktor – aktor politik untuk mengetahui dirinya dan hubungannya dengan aktor – aktor politik yang lain. Sedangkan menurut Jepperson, Wendt, dan Katzenstein (1996), identitas nasional merupakan suatu alat yang dijadikan oleh sekumpulan masyarakat dalam suatu negara untuk membangun nasionalisme negara yang mereka tinggali sehingga negara tersebut menjadi negara yang berdaulat. Dari paparan di atas, dapat dimengerti bahwa identitas nasional merupakan suatu rasa solidaritas dari masyarakat negara yang digunakan untuk menciptakan nasionalisme sebuah negara sehingga negara tersebut dapat memiliki peran penting serta eksistensi yang berdampak dalam pelaksanaan hubungan internasional.

3.    Illustrate power in IR and give example for each sub category in IR!

Power mempunyai arti kekuatan. Di dalam Hubungan Internasional, power berarti kemampuan suatu negara yang bersumber pada lingkungan. Power atau kekuatan ini merupakan aspek terpenting karena power dapat digunakan sebagai pedoman negara untuk mencapai tujuannya serta mengontrol seluruh aspek yang ada pada negara tersebut. Sehingga power selalu menjadi latar belakang suatu negara untuk menentukan kebijakan-kebijakan yang diambil (Minix & Hawley, 1998). Power dapat dibedakan menjadi tiga, yaitu soft power, hard power serta smart power.

Pada umumnya hard power ditunjukkan melalui kekuatan militer dan ekonomi. Contoh penerapannya adalah penyerangan Israel terhadap Palestina untuk menguasai wilayah teritorial Palestina. Soft power merupakan kekuasaan suatu negara untuk mencapai kepentingan nasionalnya melalui pendekatan tanpa bersifat memaksa terhadap negara atau aktor lain, baik dengan cara mempengaruhi, ajakan bekerja sama, diplomasi atau sebagainya. Contoh dari penerapan soft power adalah ketika negara menunjukkan pada dunia bahwa negaranya aman, berkualitas, dan strategis dengan tujuan menarik investor asing untuk menanamkan modal ekonomi pada negara tersebut. Sedangkan smart power adalah gabungan dari soft power dan hard power. Dalam penerapannya, negara akan menyeimbangkan antara penggunaan kekuatan militer dan kemampuan diplomasi.

[objectificationmediaeffects]

2.  How are women portrayed in the media today?

We have become desensitized to them -- billboards using sexual imagery to sell products, music videos depicting women as sexualized, dancing props, and blatantly misogynistic magazine spreads.  These media portrayals of women as sexualized objects of the male gaze, as opposed to individuals, are omnipresent.

To preface this series of posts, it is necessary to define and differentiate between nomenclature that will be used.  Often employed interchangeably, the terms “objectification,” “sexualization,” and “sexual objectification” vary considerably in meaning.

The term sexualization describes the act of emphasizing a person’s sexual characteristics or qualities (American Psychological Association, 2007).  Sexualization is most controversial when children, most often young girls, are depicted as sexual beings at inappropriately young ages.  In contrast, objectification is a term used to describe the act of portraying or treating a person as if they are an object, without regard to their personality, individualism, or dignity.  According to the researchers who initially conceived the concept of objectification theory, objectification occurs whenever a woman's body, body parts, or sexual functions are separated out from her person, reduced to the status of mere instruments, or regarded as if they were capable of representing her as an individual (Fredrickson & Roberts, 1997).

It should be noted, however, that examples of objectification are not necessarily examples of sexual objectification.  It is possible for the media to reduce an individual’s worth to a non-sexual object, such as a rug, as shown in the example below.

Sexual objectification occurs when people or media simultaneously objectify and sexualize women.  More succinctly, sexual objectification occurs when a woman’s body or body parts are singled out and separated from her as a person and she is viewed primarily as a physical object of male sexual desire (Bartky, 1990). Examples of this are ubiquitous in modern culture and can be found everywhere from magazine campaigns to comments made by prominent political figures (including the incumbent President of the United States).  For the sake of brevity, and because objectifying depictions of women are typically also sexualizing, references to sexual objectification in these posts will be shorted to objectification unless otherwise noted.

From left to right: an advertisement sexualizing young girls, a magazine spread objectifying women by reducing their value to room decorations, and an ad using the sexually objectifying tactic of “dismemberment” to reduce a woman’s value to her isolated, sexualized body parts. 

Female objectification is a pervasive theme in advertising, entertainment, and popular culture.  Several studies have attempted to measure the frequency with which women are objectified compared to non-objectifying portrayals, and their findings are shocking.

For example, a recent study using quantitative content analysis analyzed representations of women in 1,988 advertisements from 58 popular U.S. magazines.  The researchers developed and utilized a metric to “code” each image to determine how many of the advertisements depicted women as victims, sex objects, or both, and determined that one in two advertisements depict women as sex objects, and one in ten depict women as victims.  They concluded that 51.8 % of the advertisements in the sample used women’s sex appeals to sell products (Stankiewicz & Rosselli, 2008).

Music videos are another form of media infamous for objectifying women.  Drawing from a random sample of 182 MTV music videos, Seidman (1992) found that 37% showed women in revealing clothing, compared to only 4% for men. 

It is easy to point fingers at “the media” and blame it for this epidemic of female objectification and its debilitating consequences.  However, conceptualizing the media as some autonomous entity instead of a reflection of society is unconstructive.  In accordance with the “meaning-making trend” of communication theory, media is not merely a creator of cultural values, but also an agent that reinforces existing societal values (Baran & Davis, 2015).  Thus, we should not assume that women are passive recipients of objectifying media content, but individuals with agency over the way they receive and interpret said messages.  This being said, it can be very difficult for women to resist internalizing these messages, especially when the majority of girls become recipients of objectifying media content and even sexualizing comments beginning at inappropriately young ages.

Architect Quotes

Official Website: Architect Quotes

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();

• A journalist and an information architect face exactly the same problem – how to give shape to the pile of information in front of you in a way that will make it easy and natural for people to comprehend. I can’t imagine any better preparation for the work I do now. – Jesse James Garrett • A modern, harmonic and lively architecture is the visible sign of authentic democracy. – Walter Gropius • Ah, to build, to build! That is the noblest art of all the arts. Painting and sculpture are but images, Are merely shadows cast by outward things On stone or canvas, having in themselves No separate existence. Architecture, Existing in itself, and not in seeming A something it is not, surpasses them As substance shadow. – Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

• All architecture is great architecture after sunset; perhaps architecture is really a nocturnal art, like the art of fireworks. – Gilbert K. Chesterton • All architecture is shelter, all great architecture is the design of space that contains, cuddles, exalts, or stimulates the persons in that space. – Philip Johnson • All fine architectural values are human values, else not valuable. – Frank Lloyd Wright • An architect’s most useful tools are an eraser at the drafting board, and a wrecking bar at the site. – Frank Lloyd Wright • And when an architect has designed a house with large windows, which is a necessity today in order to pull the daylight into these very deep houses, then curtains come to play a big role in architecture. – Arne Jacobsen • Architects of grandeur are often the master builders of disillusionment. – Bryant H. McGill • Architects today tend to depreciate themselves, to regard themselves as no more than just ordinary citizens without the power to reform the future. – Kenzo Tange • Architects, painters, and sculptors must recognize anew and learn to grasp the composite character of a building both as an entity and in its separate parts. Only then will their work be imbued with the architectonic spirit which it has lost as salon art. Together let us desire, conceive, and create the new structure of the future, which will embrace architecture and sculpture and painting in one unity and which will one day rise toward heaven from the hands of a million workers like the crystal symbol of a new faith. – Walter Gropius • Architecture begins where engineering ends. – Walter Gropius • Architecture can’t fully represent the chaos and turmoil that are part of the human personality, but you need to put some of that turmoil into the architecture, or it isn’t real. – Frank Stella • Architecture is basically a container of something. I hope they will enjoy not so much the teacup, but the tea. – Yoshio Taniguchi • Architecture is life, or at least it is life itself taking form and therefore it is the truest record of life as it was lived in the world yesterday, as it is lived today or ever will be lived. – Frank Lloyd Wright • Architecture is not based on concrete and steel, and the elements of the soil. It’s based on wonder. – Daniel Libeskind • Architecture is really about well-being. I think that people want to feel good in a space … On the one hand it’s about shelter, but it’s also about pleasure. – Zaha Hadid • Architecture is the art of how to waste space. – Philip Johnson • Architecture is the learned game, correct and magnificent, of forms assembled in the light. – Le Corbusier • Architecture is the reaching out for the truth. – Louis Kahn • Architecture is the triumph of human imagination over materials, methods, and men, to put man into possession of his own earth – Frank Lloyd Wright • Architecture is to make us know and remember who we are. – Geoffrey Jellicoe • Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness. – Frank Gehry • Architecture, of all the arts, is the one which acts the most slowly, but the most surely, on the soul. – Ernest Dimnet • Artists to my mind are the real architects of change, and not the political legislators who implement change after the fact. – William S. Burroughs • Artists to my mind are the real architects of change. – William S. Burroughs

I’ve found that architects don’t like colors. Engineers too. And so somebody has to stand in. Because this is the finish of it. It is the emotional part of a structure. – John Hench • Designed by architects with honorable intentions but hands of palsy. – Jimmy Breslin • Each man the architect of his own fate. – Sallust • Every great architect is – necessarily – a great poet.

Each man is the architect of his own fate. – Appius Claudius Caecus • Form follows profit is the aesthetic principle of our times. – Richard Rogers • Gratitude is an attitude that hooks us up to our source of supply. And the more grateful you are, the closer you become to your maker, to the architect of the universe, to the spiritual core of your being. It’s a phenomenal lesson. – Bob Proctor • He who rejects change is the architect of decay. The only human institution which rejects progress is the cemetery. – Harold Wilson • Home is where you hang your architect. – Clare Boothe Luce • I almost rented a house by an architect named Schindler, but I couldn’t afford it. It was a jewel – Parker Stevenson • I am trying to counter the fixity of architectures, their stolidity, with elements that give an ineffable immaterial quality. – Toyo Ito • I believe that the way people live can be directed a little by architecture. – Tadao Ando • I did a comparison of a school of architects known as the New York Five. I compared their articulation of wall surfaces, which I enjoyed very much – Parker Stevenson • I don’t divide architecture, landscape and gardening; to me they are one. – Luis Barragan • I feel however, that we architects have a special duty and mission… (to contribute) to the socio-cultural development of architecture and urban planning – Kenzo Tange • I feel most strongly about Jerusalem, because architects ultimately have to address that city. – Ben Nicholson • I have an expensive hobby: buying homes, redoing them, tearing them down and building them up the way they want to be built.

I can’t imagine any better preparation for the work I do now. – Jesse James Garrett • A modern, harmonic and lively architecture is the visible sign of authentic democracy. – Walter Gropius • Ah, to build, to build! That is the noblest art of all the arts. Painting and sculpture are but images, Are merely shadows cast by outward things On stone or canvas, having in themselves No separate existence. Architecture, Existing in itself, and not in seeming A something it is not, surpasses them As substance shadow. – Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

• All architecture is great architecture after sunset; perhaps architecture is really a nocturnal art, like the art of fireworks. – Gilbert K. Chesterton • All architecture is shelter, all great architecture is the design of space that contains, cuddles, exalts, or stimulates the persons in that space. – Philip Johnson • All fine architectural values are human values, else not valuable. – Frank Lloyd Wright • An architect’s most useful tools are an eraser at the drafting board, and a wrecking bar at the site. – Frank Lloyd Wright • And when an architect has designed a house with large windows, which is a necessity today in order to pull the daylight into these very deep houses, then curtains come to play a big role in architecture. – Arne Jacobsen • Architects of grandeur are often the master builders of disillusionment. – Bryant H. McGill • Architects today tend to depreciate themselves, to regard themselves as no more than just ordinary citizens without the power to reform the future. – Kenzo Tange • Architects, painters, and sculptors must recognize anew and learn to grasp the composite character of a building both as an entity and in its separate parts. Only then will their work be imbued with the architectonic spirit which it has lost as salon art.

I hope they will enjoy not so much the teacup, but the tea. – Yoshio Taniguchi • Architecture is life, or at least it is life itself taking form and therefore it is the truest record of life as it was lived in the world yesterday, as it is lived today or ever will be lived. – Frank Lloyd Wright • Architecture is not based on concrete and steel, and the elements of the soil. It’s based on wonder. – Daniel Libeskind • Architecture is really about well-being. I think that people want to feel good in a space … On the one hand it’s about shelter, but it’s also about pleasure. – Zaha Hadid • Architecture is the art of how to waste space. – Philip Johnson • Architecture is the learned game, correct and magnificent, of forms assembled in the light. – Le Corbusier • Architecture is the reaching out for the truth. – Louis Kahn • Architecture is the triumph of human imagination over materials, methods, and men, to put man into possession of his own earth – Frank Lloyd Wright • Architecture is to make us know and remember who we are. – Geoffrey Jellicoe • Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness. – Frank Gehry • Architecture, of all the arts, is the one which acts the most slowly, but the most surely, on the soul. – Ernest Dimnet • Artists to my mind are the real architects of change, and not the political legislators who implement change after the fact. – William S. Burroughs • Artists to my mind are the real architects of change. – William S. Burroughs

Sea Witch Altar Set Up

So, this is my dresser in my room that I have been using as my main altar for seven years. I made it into a Sea Witch’s altar, filled with ocean-themed things. I use the cardinal points, so for Earth I have a sand dollar and a rock, for Air, I have a gull feather (wrapped in blue ribbon), for Fire I have a blue glass chalice filled with sea salt holding a blue tea light, and for Water I have a glass cauldron and a drinking cup. For my main working vessel for witchcraft I have a huge abalone shell. My little shelving unit holds little treasures like water-related gems, a blue fairy, a shark tooth, an otter, a beaver, my Selkie seal statue and a bunch of sea shells. I have the Acadian flag as a nod to my sea-faring ancestry. In my books, I have the Hidden Secrets of Water by Dr. Paolo Consigli, The Oceanic Tarot, Sea Magic by Sandra Kynes, and the poem Evangeline by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. 

I feel much better since I changed my altar, mostly because it was too cluttered before, and didn’t have any focus, whereas now it does.

The Hawaii event takes place during Valentine’s Day week in February in the Kaka’ako district of Honolulu, and brings over a hundred international and local artists together to create murals and other forms of art.

After touring the globe and beautifying the streets of ten different cities, contemporary art initiative POW! WOW! takes to its hometown in Oahu, Hawaii for its 2018 festivities. Taking place between February 10th and the 18th, artists and musicians will gather at the Kaka’ako neighborhood and create all new murals and installations. The festival is fleshed out with a block party alongside the Honolulu Night Market, an exhibition curated by Thinkspace at the Honolulu Museum of Art, a print show with Detroit-based 1xRun, artist talks, screenings, foot golf tournaments with Kicks to the Pitch and Paradise Soccer Club, break dancing battles with UDEF, as well as concert with BAMP.

In 2017, the festival was held in the following cities: Honolulu, Hawaii; Washington D.C.; Israel; Long Beach, California; Worcester, Massachusetts; Guam; Seoul, South Korea; San Jose, California; Kobe, Japan; and Taipei, Taiwan.

4 Ways Video Helps Maintain Control and Accelerate the Sales Cycle

We’ve been talking a lot about using video during the inbound/outbound sales process. But it’s time to dive a little deeper into how you can strategically use video to tighten up your sales cycle and maintain control of the buying process – at the same time, providing a seamless experience for your customers and prospects.

If you’re just starting out with video, head over to our Video Selling Institute to learn best practices for breaking through e-mail clutter, boosting response rates and booking more meetings. I also suggest you get yourself a whiteboard and check out Lauren Wadsworth’s blog: How I Get 5x More Meetings and Beat Quota Every Month (Hint: It’s Not Email or Phone).

It’s no surprise that video prospecting yields significantly higher results than traditional methods, but let’s explore some new ways video can be used throughout the entire path-to-purchase, to deliver on sales-sourced pipeline and convert your prospects from  lead to customer in just the click of a play button.

1. Waking the Dead (Dead Opps + Cold Leads)

Remember Paul the MQL who requested a demo and went cold as ice? You followed up with him for 20 days, 4 emails, 3 calls, 2 voicemails, a LinkedIn connection request and—nothing! New projects, minutiae and a flooded inbox had other plans for Paul.

Let’s wake the dead and turn these cold leads to warm, and then to hot.

Here’s an example of how video can help you stay top-of-mind, re-engage a cold lead, and leverage existing marketing content to further qualify and convert your prospects faster.

Dead opportunities are at least somewhat familiar with your product and typically convert faster than cold leads. Introduce a 2-minute micro-demo in a playlist to remind Paul why he was evaluating your product in the first place and try to drive urgency to re-engage.If there wasn’t a compelling enough reason before, be prepared to deliver why there is one now.

2. Land and Expand

Let’s dial-in on prospecting large to mid-market, and enterprise accounts. When you’re navigating through thousands of employees to prospect, you need to scale your efforts and prioritize your time working your most engaged leads. You still need to personalize your messaging – but in this case, the personalization is your targeted research on the company.

It’s about finding the right balance between quality and quantity; account based videos save you time and deliver on both.

Check out this example of an Account Base Video (ABV). ABVs should be based on persona, so while you’re sending the same video to multiple prospects, your messaging will always resonate:

The idea is to create one single screen share and send the video at-scale, using video analytics to hone in on the leads that are most engaged.

Once you’ve landed the first meeting, expand it. Reuse the same Account Based Video and prospect the same persona in a different territory or country. If Sandra, the Director of IT in the East is interested, there is a good chance David from the West could be, too.

Expanding into an account you’ve already determined is a good fit is like working a highly qualified lead – you should be able to get to a yes/ no/ maybe, very early on in your cadence.

At the very least, your prospect should be open to a conversation—if you’re extra cheeky—it’s because you’ve asked for the referral! Convert, convert, convert.

3. Enabling a Champion

It’s true; no one can sell your product better than you can. So, when you hear the inevitable “let me pitch this to my team /boss/VP, and get back to you,” use video to take back control of your opportunity and deliver your own value prop.

Shikha, SME Account Executive at Vidyard, shows us how to enable a champion, summarizing the discovery call, addressing the resolved pain-point, and positioning herself as a trusted advisor:

Encourage your champion to forward your video internally and use the video analytics to guide your next steps. Did multiple viewers see the video? Did they watch it more than once? Based on how invested your champion is, you’ll have some understanding as to how your deal will progress.

It’s important to note, if you’ve sent a video to your champion and you’re receiving a poor drop-off rate—or worse, no view at all—take this as a clear warning sign; your champion hasn’t bought in!

There could be competing priorities, you did not provide enough (or the right) value or your prospect simply isn’t ready. Either way, find the disconnect and get it back on track, or take this opportunity to nurture the account and focus your attention on other opportunities.

4. Proposing your Proposal

It’s not uncommon that a sales rep thinks they’ve got it in the bag and then suddenly, the entire deal falls apart. Video analytics provide a way to keep your finger on the pulse, appropriately tailor your next steps, and better yet, more accurately forecast your pipeline.

Summarize your proposal and be transparent with your champion and decision maker, let them know you will send a physical copy of the proposal once you see they’ve had a chance to watch your summary video.

Tom, Mid-Market Account Executive at Vidyard gives us a clip of what a proposal video might look like:

Again, let the digital body language from your video proposal be your guide. If there is limited or no interaction – set a plan! Have an executive sponsor create a video introduction to show you’re fully invested in, and committed to the future relationship.

This is where video can help you really move the needle.

Take these opportunities to get your face in front of your prospective customers and show off your best asset; you. After all, people have a hard time saying “no” to people they like, and there’s a reason you were hired to sell.
