Recommended workflow
- Publish three pieces for one audience and one product goal
- Document sources, creative decisions, and results
- Turn the set into a portfolio case study rather than a gallery
- Review the result against the rubric, then package it as a case study.
Constraints and safety
- Use only public sources or clearly simulated data.
- Never include seed phrases, private keys, or wallet secrets.
- Redact private user, company, security, legal, or compensation information.
- State every assumption you make.
Tools in practice
- Notion
- Draft, review, and maintain scripts and short posts, with owners, source links, and change history.
- Figma or Canva
- Develop and review visual work used in scripts and short posts.
- editing software
- Storyboard, animate, composite, render, and version motion assets for product demos, launches, explainers, or social distribution.
- X, YouTube, TikTok, or other target platforms
- Publish in native formats, review retention and audience response, and compare the result with the original brief rather than chasing raw reach.
- analytics tools
- Measure the role-specific signals behind scripts and short posts and document attribution, time window, and known gaps.
What a strong submission shows
- A three-piece educational series
- A protocol explainer with source appendix
- A campaign concept and asset set
- A performance review showing what changed after publication
Weak submission patterns
- A viral screenshot with no role in the result
- Generic AI-generated summaries
- A portfolio with no source trail, audience goal, or revision process
Review rubric
- Accuracy of claims and sources
- Relevance to the target role
- Decision quality and trade-offs
- Completeness of the deliverable
- Clarity of communication
- Honest limitations and next steps
Present it as a case study
- Explain the problem, sources, decisions, ownership, constraints, output, review, and what you would change.
- Show the final artifact before the process notes.
- State what you owned and what belonged to other people.
- Label the work as simulated, and keep any real contribution clearly separate.
