About the webinar

In this one hour webinar, the Digital Culture Network’s previous Tech Champion for Social Media, Haydn Corrodus, will take you through what TikTok is and what it isn’t. He will outline important platform features and explain how it’s being used by other arts and culture organisations.

Haydn is joined by Joe Duggan Head of Comms & Digital at National Youth Theatre. National Youth Theatre has partnered with TikTok, using the platform to run exciting campaigns and build an engaged audience generating millions of views. Joe will share why The NYT started using the platform and their key takeaways from using it.

After this session you will have the confidence and knowledge to make TikTok an integral part of your organisation’s social media activity.

The current Digital Culture Network Tech Champion for Social Media is Nicola Barratt.
