What's the key to improving engagement when I'm just starting to post videos of myself?

Consistency is the answer. Aim to create around 100 videos before you evaluate and optimize—this builds comfort on camera and helps you find your voice. Early on, keep it simple: record yourself next to your artwork, share the story or inspiration, and don’t worry about fancy editing. When you show your face and speak authentically, engagement increases dramatically. After repetition, being on camera becomes natural, and then you can layer in editing skills. Focus on showing up regularly rather than perfecting each post.
