About You:

You’re fresh blood in the design world with lots of ideas & looking for the right place to prove it.  Your work has personality but your presentation is professional. Music is a huge influence to your passion and you’d flip at the opportunity to help Hip Hop and EDM artists improve their digital presence. You’re capable in graphic design, video, and project management.  You’ve never missed a deadline for anything, even in an end-of-the-world situation. You’re not just someone who creates amazing content, but you like to see it all the way through to deployment too and baby it every step of the way. Taking charge and ownership in a completely new space suits your personality, and you’re not afraid to ‘get it done’ no matter what it takes. 

People turn to you for your opinion on how things should look or feel because you always deliver the best, honest feedback. You understand what a client needs based on their personality and wild, non-specific definitions and descriptions of what they want their final product to be. You’re not afraid of constructive criticism and can stay detached enough from your work to make necessary changes to make a client happy.

Requirements:

      An incredible portfolio. You may not have a ton of experience, but your work is mind-blowing.

      Post-secondary education in design or related experience.

      2-3 years experience in graphic design, video editing, or animation.

      Humour, personality, and a positive attitude.

      Experience using YouTube as a content delivery platform.

      Familiar with designing assets for social media platforms.

      Ability to execute multiple projects under tight deadlines.

Skills:

      You work magic in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign.

      You’re a wizard with animation platforms like After Effects and Cinema 4D to develop assets for video projects.

      You have the ability to adapt and utilize existing assets as well as create compelling graphics for partners with different branding strategies.

      You have the ability to take ideas and bring them to life visually.

      You’re not only familiar with video platforms like YouTube, but have used them to deploy content yourself.

      You’re organized and able to manage your time well to deliver on a number of projects on tight schedules.

      SEO isn’t just a marketing buzzword you know, but something you might know a few things about.

      Bonus: You have entry level experience in web design, creating WordPress sites, etc.

      Bonus: You have experience with merchandise design.

Tasks:

      Create YouTube & Social Media graphics for our music partners.

      Create branded pre-rolls and post-rolls for video content.

      Create After Effects reactive visualizer videos for music.

      Edit cohesive stories out of partner video content.
