​I worked for two months with $1 watercolor paint, creating a total of 38 pieces. I made these works into YouTube videos and uploaded them to my YouTube channel.

  ​A site called Stock provided by Adobe supports making YouTube files by making thumbnails for YouTube in this easy and various format. It is free to use. To use it, you need to create an account. 

  ​If you look at the YouTube file, you will see an image file called a thumbnail. Rather than simply uploading your own picture, it is better to use a thumbnail image like this to add text and make the picture move.

  ​Adobe Stock provides a variety of thumbnail platforms. I have selected art from the category.

  ​Choose your favorite background image and layout. Text and images can be edited.

  

 In my case, I choose a background type with solid color(PNG).

 ​When the thumbnail image is complete, return to the home of Adobe Stock and select the video.

 Select the best template for your purpose. In my case, I selected the Show and tell. 

 ​You can upload a total of 25 images, and you can include music and text. It is possible to resize the image or change the layout while creating the movie.

  ​After making it, you can download it in the form of a video. If you upload the downloaded file directly to the YouTube channel, the whole process is completed.

    Today I would like to show you the artist open call online application process.
   

  Artists have their work shown to the public in the form of an open call. Most open calls go through a juried process through juror. Through this process, selected works will be displayed online or offline. They are discovering talented artists through a award system that mainly pays cash to 1st to 3rd place.

   Mainly open calls have a theme as above. All you have to do is submit a work that fits the theme presented by the judges (usually one person). The open call also details the biography or careers about the juror.

  Also, it has 3 parts for the application such as prospectus, entry form and entry payment. 

 ​The application guidelines contain detailed information such as the subject matter covered by the open call, eligibility of applicants, restrictions such as the size or material of the work, the date of notification of selection, selection criteria, deadlines, delivery principle when selected, and the status of the work for delivery.

 After reading the application guidelines carefully, if you believe that your work is suitable for the open call, you will apply. It usually costs around 10-50 dollars. Works may require as few as 1 and as many as 10.

​  When entering the online form to apply, you must first enter the artist's information as shown below.

  ​You will then enter information about your work. Often, you want the image files of your work to be initialed with the title and last name of the artist.  Most works require new work within 5 years. You must enter information such as the size of the work. In the case of this open call, the sketch process is also to be uploaded.

  ​I plan to submit the following 3 works to this open call.  (Due to an unknown error in the current Weebly editor, the uploaded images do not match each other.)

  If you run a website or blog, you will hear a lot about Google Adsense. In fact, there are many people who are earning money through Google Adsense.

 Google AdSense is Google's advertising program for advertisers. Website owners can share advertising revenue with Google by signing up for AdSense. Advertising revenue is generated when users click on AdSense ads, and the publisher pays advertising fees to Google, and Google shares the advertising costs with the website creators.

  Ads through Google Adsense are divided into the following types.

1. AdSense for content
Website owners run ads by posting script code on their website. Ads related to the content are displayed in the advertisement window provided by Google, and when users click on them, they earn money. In other words, it can be called a contextual advertisement for AdSense.   

  If you want to insert adsense advertisement in your website, you have to click Got Code. And then you can get the code like below. You have to copy and paste it in between the <head></head>tags of your site. 

  2.  AdSense for Search
Website owners put a search bar provided by Google on their website, and when a user searches and clicks on an ad in that window, they also earn money.

  3. AdSense for feeds
It is currently being tested as a contextual advertisement placed in feeds such as RSS or ATOM. If you have more than 100 subscribers and are bloggers or use the movable type, you can apply as a beta tester.

4. Mobile adsense
It is a method of advertising by posting AdSense on mobile phone contents. Unlike other types, phone numbers may appear in advertisements. Currently, mobile AdSense support is available only in the US, UK, France, Italy, Germany, Spain, Russia, the Netherlands, Austria, India, China and Japan.

  ​First, if you insert Google AdSense into your website, Weebly inserts the advertisement at the desired location using the drag-and-drop element below.

  However, when it is annoying because you have to manually insert them one by one by finding a suitable location. Above all, when you first start as a newbie, there is a possibility that you may experience trial and error without being aware of where it is more effective to insert.

First, you can go to Google AdSense site to turn on your auto ad. 
​And click the Optimization---> Experiment menu. 

If you look down on the right of bottom, you can find the text, " Show experiment setup". 

Above is the experiment window. You can select the mode with mobile and Desktop or both. 

 Below is the Ad settings of the experiment. 

  The benefits of Auto ads are that they potentially increase your revenue. Auto ads analyze your pages and find new places to show ads based on your layout, content, and existing Google ads. They're easy to use.
