Content Creation: The Rubrics & Fundamentals
Some of the most consistent creators on hive are the ones that have built their niches around their profession, hobbies, interests, ordinary lives, and even the general knowledge they acquire daily. This ranges from the conversations they hold with people on the job, to the things they deduce on a daily.
For example, photographers have to take pictures of things ranging from the ordinary to the extraordinary, meaning that people are even creators based on the perception of what they deem to be valuable or ordinary. This is to say people who have and experience more eventful lives are more knowledgeable, maybe not from a general perspective but in certain areas of concentration.
Operating a digital camera might seem technical, but exposure to a camera creates a special affinity that establishes a person as a craftsman.
Some people go on to become vastly knowledgeable in different skillset, because of their willingness to learn. Now when people like this decides to intentionally monetize these know-hows, it might end up being the opportunity that changes their lives.
This means we can be amazing at what we do, even if we do not start with the intent of attaining mastery. For example, a person who visits a gun range and has mastered the art of shooting, over time, might use these skills as a form of content to educate, fascinate and inform some specific part of their audience.
The reason is that it is not every country in the world that gives guns licenses. So people who do not live in countries with a gun license, might not find the content valuable, but they might find it fascinating and entertaining, which means they've also derived some certain form of value.
People derive value subconsciously and consciously,
sometimes we learn from the content of others without really according to them the appreciation they deserve, there are times we appreciate them too. We're mostly subconscious learners because the world is filled with unintentional creators.
Not everyone is a seasoned creator,
........but by default, we're all content creators. This is because our lives, narratives, and experiences are meant to serve as a form of knowledge that's extendable. So whether we monetize our experiences intentionally or choose to inadvertently share them Someone somewhere is always benefiting.
People who make creative decisions in the workplace are creators. I've seen amazing chefs monetize their cooking skills on places like YouTube. Cooking is a skill that needs to be showcased before it can be appreciated, as is playing football, or music. This further explains the fact that with the advent of technology, monetizing one's skills and knowledge is extendable.
Another thing is that people can choose to be intentional about content creation.
When people decide to monetize their skills, it can lead them to seek mastery, to attain perfection One of the ways to show intentionality is niche discovery, especially if a person is choosing to go pro.
Going pro means sticking with some particular niche/s. In almost every aspect of content creation, people need to be professionals or good at what they do to attract the right audience, especially for Hive, where the rubrics aren't limited to any standards. This doesn't mean a person has to be professionally certified to be a content creator it's even easier.
Modernization & The Advancement Of Social Spaces
With the advent of social monetization a goofy video can go viral on Facebook because an already-established content creator finds it fascinating and the people who follow this huge creator are inclined to like that particular video.
You see, in the world of content creation, value has become relative, people no longer collectively measure quality, it's now individually done. In web2, value can be influenced or translated to a particular audience. This is why web2 creators are mostly paid influencers. However, people can choose to like or dislike what is forced on them. The power of choice to determine value can be entrenched.
