I was a student-athlete up until I started college. My love for sports was one of the reasons I played on the university’s Volleyball Club Team. It also helped me to stay active while working toward my undergraduate degree. Even though I have been ingrained in sports all my life, my social media does not consist of much sport content. My approach behind creating my social media persona was to display my love of sports through different media styles. I also wanted to implement the type of content that interests me the most as well as what I would be likely to post. When I do post sport related content on social media, I attempt to make it very engaging and fun. I tend to repost more basketball content on my social media and like posting my own sport videos like shooting around or blocking the volleyball from when I was on the Volleyball Club Team. My content helps the viewer get to know more about me and my sport interests. I believe that sport content can be more appealing when it is not posted too frequently. I chose to use the social media platform “X” to post my content. I have been using the app for my assignments and want to utilize it more while creating content for the class. In one of my posts, you see me in the Student Recreation Center shooting around. I still love shooting around for fun because it is a great way to stay active as well. My other post, also taken in the Student Recreation Center, shows me blocking a volleyball during one of the Volleyball Club games. My last post was more engaging and leaves room for viewers to give their opinion on the potential outcome of the Warriors vs. Clippers game. I have always liked the Golden State Warriors because of the excitement that they bring to the game, so I had to incorporate a design with a Warriors theme.
