Whether we’re reading a book, dancing to our favorite song or laughing at a comedy show, entertaiment is an essential part of human psychology and our innate desire to feel entertained. While there are many ways to entertain, the key is to find a balance that appeals to a broad audience while staying true to your own artistic style.
Regardless of the subject matter, entertainment is often used as a platform for social commentary – a subtle or direct message that can spark change. Just consider the film Don’t Look Up, written by Adam McKay or the song This is America, recorded by Childish Gambino.
Getting inspiration from others in the industry is important, but make sure you stay true to yourself in order to build an authentic and memorable performance that sets you apart from your competitors. In addition, addressing negative feedback in real-time is crucial to building trust and loyalty with your audience.
