What do you think of my new professor outfit for my videos and post images? After ignoring the importance we place on appearance for most of my life, a few times I have paid attention to it and it always made a big difference!
In high school and college I used to wear a lot of football and basketball jerseys until a girl explained to me that I would do a lot better if I wore something girls would like better.
I made the ridiculous change for senior year to satin shirts and it worked amazing combined with being 21! The night after move in I had seven girls doing shots with me in my dorm room and felt like a god! I quickly ended up with a girlfriend and gave up the satin shirts when I got too fat to wear the ones I had bought in college!
When I became a police officer, the uniform had a similar effect without me having to think about it!
Since starting my own business, I have tried wearing a lot of different outfits and recently had given up again to just wearing whatever t shirt and pair of shorts I pulled out of my closet with even a picture in my boxers recently at https://steemit.com/photography/@jerrybanfield/ready-for-work.
Recently I had a call with my friend @tomasgeorge who happened to mention the attention he got in his graduation outfit for his masters in music as seen in this post https://steemit.com/music/@tomasgeorge/the-pros-and-cons-of-studying-a-music-masters-degree.
That got me thinking ... the graduation outfit for me as a teacher online is perfect because what I wear then communicates what I do.
Within a few hours of that conversation, I ordered the Deluxe Doctoral Academic Tam & Gown Package at https://www.gradshop.com/deluxe-doctoral-academic-tam-gown-package. While I do have a master's degree in criminal justice from the University of South Florida, no university so far has chosen to give me a Ph.D. I choose to order the doctoral outfit because I have my own university now online and I am therefore giving myself a doctoral degree from it. Every day is graduation :)
What do you think of this new uniform for my videos and post pictures?
Love,
Jerry Banfield
Hhahaha I enjoyed this - I am also an online teacher, but the students do not see me so I can teach in my pj's if I want to. You look very professional LOL
It's nice to see your early life images @jerrybanfield. especially i like your police man image. :)

@hms818 :)
I love the new professor uniform @jerrybanfield it looks great! Great idea to have as well for branding in the long run! Always good to test out and see!
Sincerely,
@joeparys
Thank you Joe :) Given that you teach online also, I am very grateful for your feedback!
Of course! We will have to see how everyone else likes it as well :)
no offense its called a graduation outfit cause its for graduation
so am not a huge fan of what you're wearing
I'm just being honest - it's like wearing an evening gown at day time
some people do that though
IMHO people won't care whatever you wear -it's what you say or write here that matters
if they don't get value from it - there's no point in dropping by
i guess your post will complete the following post :

professor jerry hehehe
No. Not Professor Jerry.
Doctor Jerry.
"Every day is graduation :)"
Haha love it!! Maybe try out a wizard outfit next for the Cyrpo stuff! That could look cool/funny
😂
Good idea! Thank you Tomas for inspiring me to try a change in outfit! When are you leaving on your trip?
Amazing to see you coming up with great ideas to win peoples heart. Steem on my friend!!!
Jerry, to be honest it's more Wizard than academic. But maybe you already know that right? And seeing you as a cop is somewhat scary too. Im also curious to know, from one video maker to another, how you get your greenscreen to be wrinkle free, because mines got more lines on it than Rupert Murdochs neck. I know in the pictures you took the green screen isnt pulled tight (which I guess you probably do when you make a video). I seem to spend most of my time messing around with Ultra Key on the Premier CC and wondered if you had any good tips. Thanks Harry Potter!
@anarcotech yes wizard is good too :) I use a steel cable hung from one end of the room to the other which the curtain then hangs on. I also have it taped to the wall on one end which minimizes wrinkles and thrown back over itself also. The lighting then has to be just right to minimize the wrinkles that remain from being too shadowy! A lot of trial and error to get it right!
Impressive
haha I was also thinking that, he indeed looks like a Hogwart's Professor :) :)
The "professor look" is more your style I think. Very interesting what a big part branding plays!
Thank you@team101!
Teach us Jerry, We want to graduate from steemit university lol
lol I am not sure when graduation is but it will be fantastic when the day comes!
you look SO much healthier these days! im assuming you weren't eating all nice vegan treats back then!!
Exactly right Alex! I also used to drink a lot of alcohol for those older pictures too!
I just found the best teacher in town @jerrybanfield
I am a truly fan of yours.
Whenever I have a question I just look for your blogs most of the answers I need is ther thanks senpai.
@jcpuzs1 thank you for your generous feedback here!
The one with sweatpants and no t-shirt was kinda my favorite ;)
Nice picture & design :)
dope
You look great in this uniform.regardless of the uniform you are my professor thank you so much. Because of you I boat some steel and opened an account on steemit. It's true I am losing my initial investment but in the other hand I'm earning Steem. I do watch your YouTube videos and I like them a lot. I learned more about under evaluated currencies, thanks and keep on the good work.
@jerrybanfield ...well to be honest, any attire/dress will suit you to broadcast your posts, having a gorgeous famous face...:) We are a very open community and not restricting ourselves to go beyond boundaries, as a result, adhering to a particular attire will restrict the physical freedom to express freely and experiment with oneself as an ongoing phenomenon. May be for one particular activity/post/online tutorial that might be an attire for that very moment but wearing it again and again might make things go boring and dull (probably)...!!!
But there is nothing wrong in trying it out! and see the response!!!
"You are a master of all trades" :)
Cheers!!!

I love it :D graduated with all the diplomas of life
Our outfits definitely have a big effect on how people see and perceive us. A single change in outfit could potentially change our life for the better or for worse :)

Very classic!...

Well, it is certainly eye catching and you did tell us in another post to place our images in our posts to get attention! It has certainly worked for you!
You just need a wizard hat and a cloak @jerrybanfield. Who knows maybe even a crystal ball, you predict the future enough you can probably pull it off. Keep up the post grind Jerry
It is perfect. I really like it. Much better than jeans and t-shirt.
Nice pictures jerry ........!!!!

In euronation, I heard of Jerrybanfield. His status in steemit community has spread and became a motivator for euronation and steemians in general. I'm glad to meet you @jerrybanfield. I'm resteeming this post now. upvoted too.
You look great @jerrybanfield. And thank you because of you I'm on this website. I watched that whole 30 minutes video on facebook. Thank you very much. Now I hope that I can do something here with your and other steemers help!!
I think the Professor uniform is nice, but it would be spectacular if you have a steemit logo embroidered on it.
:-)
Hi Jerry, change the suit to suit... New and pushing this new venture!
Would have loved see you in white alb!!
looking like a young history professor @jerrybanfield ..i hope your students will like you in this outfit.
Nice post!
