What Is Not?” event.

“Social media” in all areas of life!
With the developing technology, social media has become an indispensable part of our lives. In addition to entertaining and everyday sharing, social media applications used for advertising and marketing are preferred by almost all companies. In recent years, the concept of “influencer” has started to appear in many areas of communication, especially in digital marketing. With social media becoming a profession with different branches, its importance has increased. IGU Faculty of Fine Arts, which has carried out many studies in order to guide the future careers of students and to have information about the sectors, organized the event. The event, which took place with the participation of Digital Media Specialist Yıldırım Özkan, attracted great interest from the students. Sharing his experiences with the students, Özkan gave general information about social media platforms. One of the most prominent issues of today, “production-oriented” social media and awareness of social media were also discussed.
At the end of the event, Lect. Ahmet Bikiç presented a plaque to Digital Media Specialist Yıldırım Özkan.
