RULES OF ETIQUETTE
The narrative of excellence and respect within our walls.
The Curfew saga is for those 21 years and above, for it is with age that our story is truly savored.
Attire yourself in smart casual elegance; beachwear, flip-flops, football shirts, sports-related apparel, and baseball-style caps or similar-style headwear have no place in our tale. Such headwear must be removed before entering Curfew.
Upon entering, pause and be seated by our staff—every esteemed guest shall have their own stage.
Announce your name upon arrival as you would a title of a tale eagerly anticipated.
A minimum engagement of one drink per hour is your commitment to the plot; anything less, and we reserve the right to turn the page for another reader.
If you opt to depart before your story unfolds, a simple nod to our staff is the mark of a considerate protagonist.
Our cocktail crafting is an art form; during our busiest chapters, we ask for patience—your reward will be a drink worth the wait.
Punctuality is the respect we ask for your reservation; fail this, and your chapter may be swiftly concluded.
Your allocated time at Curfew is a precious 2 hours; should your chapter reach its allotted ending, we may ask you to conclude your evening and allow the next story to begin.
Maintain decorum; loud or overbearing dialogue disrupts the narrative flow and is not tolerated.
Those lost to intoxication will find their journey at Curfew at an end, with the intervention of authorities if necessary.
While a cloakroom is provided, the stewardship of your belongings is your chapter to write.
The use of drugs within Curfew is a breach of our story’s integrity, leading to immediate expulsion.
Items within Curfew are part of our setting; to remove them without leave is to steal from our pages.
Our furnishings are not footrests; respect them as you would the spine of a cherished tome.
Do not mar our scenery with discarded chewing gum; ask for a napkin to dispose of it properly.
The architecture of Curfew is set; furniture is not to be moved on a whim. Consult with our narrators first.
Restrooms are a courtesy for our patrons; use without patronage incurs a fee, as with any luxury.
The air of Curfew is pure and reserved for the narrative within; smoking is an outside affair, without escort from our glassware.
If you must leave the plot momentarily, signal a staff member, leave a card, or settle your account.
A locked door is an intermission or a finale; inquire within to know your next act.
Disregard for our house policies will result in a swift and decisive closure to your evening’s tale.
At Curfew, your experience within our walls should be one of immersive respect and mutual storytelling. We thank you for playing your part with grace.

I'm looking for a 3D artist to design a polished, professional logo with a three-dimensional look and feel. The logo will be used across digital platforms (website, social media) and potentially print, so it needs to look sharp at any size.
I have a general idea of the brand direction but I'm open to your creative input — I value artists who bring ideas to the table, not just execute instructions.

What I'm Looking For:
- Strong portfolio of 3D logo and branding work
- Ability to create clean, modern designs with good lighting, depth, and material work
- Experience delivering logos that work in both 3D and simplified/flat versions
- Clear communication and responsiveness throughout the project

Deliverables
- Final 3D logo in high resolution
- Transparent PNG exports in multiple sizes
- A flat/2D adaptation of the logo for smaller use cases

To Apply Please include:
- A short note on your approach to 3D logo design
- Links or samples of similar work you've done
- Your estimated timeline and any questions you have about the project

I'll review your portfolios, so quality of past work matters more than the length of your proposal. Looking forward to seeing your designs!

We need a flat-vector capybara mascot for a mobile app - layered source files ready for rigging in Rive, clean separated layers so we can animate it ourselves (not animation itself).

**Reference images attached — read this first.**
Image 1 (capybara with sunglasses): use for seated pose and body proportions only — ignore the sunglasses, background, and gradient fur shading. Image 2 (capybara with backpack): use for expressive character vibe and face readability only — ignore the backpack, microphone on the character, and upright stance. Neither image matches the final style; both are loose direction only.

**Character: Capy**
A capybara. Use real capybara photo references for anatomy. Personality: calm, patient, a little goofy. Two traits must stay identical across every pose: the distinctive capybara face and chunky rounded body. Warm brown fur (#b45309–#d97706), lighter belly; muzzle/snout front as a darker patch (deeper brown) against the rest of the face — the defining capybara facial feature, keep it distinct.

**Base pose**
seated on haunches (natural capybara sit), facing right, slight 3/4 angle toward the viewer. See attached reference image for style and sticker format.

**Art style**
flat vector sticker art — clean shapes, single thick rounded dark-brown outline, one soft shadow tone max. No gradients, no photorealism, no 3D. Tone reference: Duolingo's owl — stylized, expressive, adult-friendly. Not chibi, not realistic.

Avoid:
clothing, accessories, microphones on the character body, human hand gestures, busy backgrounds, text inside the art.

**Deliverable 1 — Master character + expression kit**
One master Capy delivered as a single file. All body parts and expression variants exist in that one file as separate named layers; most are hidden by default. The 8 states below are not 8 separate drawings — they are 8 combinations of which layers are visible. For example: Speaking = show mouth_open + hide mouth_smile + show soundwave_arcs. We toggle visibility in Rive to drive animation; no geometry changes are needed.

States and expressions:
1. Idle — relaxed slump, soft closed-mouth smile
2. Speaking — mouth open (no teeth), head slightly raised [separate layer, hidden by default: 2–3 sound-wave arcs]
3. Listening — head tilt, body leaning in, eyes widened
4. Correct — eyes bright, cheek blush, small upward bounce [separate layer, hidden by default: sparkle]
5. Gentle miss — soft sympathetic look, head dipped slightly (not sad, not crying — a gentle nudge)
6. Confused — head tilt, brows slightly raised [separate layer, hidden by default: small "?"]
7. Dozing — eyes closed, relaxed slump [separate layer, hidden by default: tiny "z"]
8. Celebrating — front paws up, big open smile, blush [separate layer, hidden by default: confetti]


**Deliverable 2 — App icon**
Capy's head (slight 3/4 angle) with a small microphone beside/below the chin. Solid amber (#f59e0b) rounded-square background, generous padding, no text. 1024×1024. Must stay legible at 24px — the icon is displayed at small sizes on device home screens.

**Layer structure — this is the critical part**
Every movable part on its own named layer. Never flatten. No clipping masks that merge separate parts.

- `head` group separate from `body`
- Ears L/R separate; eyes L/R separate; pupils separate from eye-whites
- Eyelid/closed-eye shape for blinking
- Mouth as swappable shapes: `mouth_smile`, `mouth_open`, `mouth_soft_frown`
- Cheek blush overlay — hidden by default
- Front paws L/R separate
- Prop layers (each isolated, hidden by default): sound-wave arcs, "?", "z", confetti, sparkle

Body/neck must have complete art behind the head so tilts never expose a gap. Consistent canvas and registration across all parts. Outline as real filled shape or expandable stroke — no raster effects or filters.

**Files to deliver:**
- Editable source (.ai, .fig, or .svg) with all layers intact
- Clean .svg export with layer/group names preserved
- PNG previews of each assembled state, 1024×1024, transparent background
- App icon 1024×1024, solid amber background

**Palette:** fur #b45309–#d97706 · brand amber #f59e0b · background #f9fafb · outline #1f2937

*Project Hire: Natural-History Engraving Illustrator for Tropical Limestone Forest Project

We are seeking a talented illustrator to craft a detailed one-color artwork depicting a tropical limestone karst forest landscape.

**Project Overview:**
The illustration should embody a sophisticated, museum-quality aesthetic reminiscent of antique natural-history engravings, botanical field plates, and scientific expedition art. We are specifically looking for an engraving-style piece rather than simplistic line art.

**Artistic Style Requirements:**
Your illustration should feature:

- Intricate etched linework
- Techniques such as hatching and stippling
- Rich botanical details
- Depth and atmosphere in the landscape
- Clarity and readability in one color
- A vintage sensibility typical of scientific illustrations

We encourage you to draw inspiration from antique botanical engravings, Kew Gardens illustrations, prints from Natural History Museums, and field journal sketches.

**Please Note:** This opportunity is not suitable for artists whose work leans towards cartoonish styles, mascots, anime, flat vector illustrations, logos, or generic digital posters.

**Illustration Guidelines:**
The artwork should be a vertical composition that captures the essence of a tropical limestone karst forest, incorporating the following elements (photo references will be provided):

- Jagged limestone formations
- A native forest canopy enveloping the rocks
- Misty ridges that contribute to atmospheric depth
- Cascading vine flowers to frame the scene naturally
- Wildlife elements such as a hornbill with fruit, a flying fox bat, a cloud rat, a butterfly, a small native snail, and a tropical flower with large leaves
- Unique blooms on the forest floor
- Ferns, roots, leaf litter, and limestone cracks

The artwork should create an impression of a lush limestone forest from a distance while revealing intricate species and ecological details upon closer inspection.

**Please Avoid:**
- Badge or emblem designs
- Excessive decorative elements
- Ultra-thin lines that might not reproduce well in print

**Color Palette:**
The illustration must be rendered in one color.

**Background Color Reference:**
Deep forest green
HEX: #10291F
RGB: 16, 41, 31

**Illustration Color Reference:**
Warm limestone tone
HEX: #D3C39A
RGB: 211, 195, 154

This color should evoke the feel of aged limestone, vintage paper, or museum ink. Avoid using bright white, yellow gold, or stark cream.

**Technical Specifications:**
The final artwork must be suitable for one-color printing, and deliverables should include:

1. Vector file (AI, SVG, or EPS preferred)
2. High-resolution PNG with a transparent background
3. Version in warm limestone color on a transparent background
4. Preview against a deep forest-green background
5. Simplified print version if needed
6. Layered working file, if available

The artwork must maintain its detail while ensuring legibility for one-color reproduction.

**Reference Materials:**
We will provide specific reference photos of limestone formations, forest canopies, flowers, wildlife, and rock textures. These will serve as guidance, but the final artwork should be an original composition.

**Ideal Candidate Profile:**
You are an excellent fit if you possess experience in:

- Natural-history illustration
- Botanical illustration
- Wildlife illustration
- Engraving-style linework
- Scientific or museum-quality artwork
- One-color print designs

Please include portfolio samples that showcase your work in engraving, botanical, wildlife, or natural-history styles. We request a fixed project rate and prefer to work within a milestone framework:

1. Rough composition sketch
2. Refined linework
3. Final print-ready artwork

We look forward to your application and hope to collaborate on this exciting project!

• Please share 3–5 portfolio pieces closest to this style.
• Have you created one-color artwork for print before?
• Can you compose one coherent landscape from multiple reference photos?
• Please describe your process from rough composition to print-ready file.

**Cover Art Needed: FRIC/TION EP — Masha and the Fam**

Los Angeles indie alt-rock artist seeking an original visual artist to create a cohesive series of three cover art pieces for an EP release:

- No Smoke (No Mirrors) — single cover
- New Normal — single cover
- FRIC/TION — EP cover

**The World**

No photos of the artist. No generic design. This is pure visual art — the kind you frame and hang on a wall. Think Radiohead. Cinematic, darkly glamorous, emotionally complex. The EP lives in friction: heat through resistance, tension before transformation, the electricity of contact.

**The System**

Three pieces, one visual universe. Each distinct, but clearly part of a series:

**No Smoke (No Mirrors)** — Ignition. Compressed, contained energy. The moment before impact.

**New Normal** — Explosion. The same world blown open. Maximum drama and scale.

**FRIC/TION EP cover** — Synthesis. Visual elements from both single covers come together here, plus the FRIC/TION typography integrated into the composition, not placed on top of it. The slash in the title echoes the fracture in the image. This is the one that hangs on a wall.

**Brand and Visual Language**

Colors: purple, black, white/silver
Energy: cinematic, powerful, emotionally complex, darkly glamorous
Hero archetype — but not glossy empowerment. Courage while destabilized. Transformation through impact.
The duality that must live in all three pieces: rage and tenderness. Destruction and beauty. Force and vulnerability.

**Specs**
- 3000x3000px, 300dpi for streaming
- Print-ready EP cover also required
- Layered files plus flattened exports for all three pieces

**Timeline:** 7-10 days

**To apply:** Share portfolio — specifically dark, cinematic, or emotionally complex work. Tell me briefly how you'd approach this world. Generic proposals will not be considered.

I need 10 different types of trees for our RuneScape-style MMORPG. The trees can look fairly similar, but each should have enough unique characteristics to make them easily recognizable from one another.

I’ve attached examples of the logs obtained from each tree to help guide the visual design. Please use these as a reference when creating the tree models so players can easily associate each tree with the logs it produces.

Preference will be given to artists who have played Old School RuneScape in the past, or who are willing to study its art style and tree progression system to understand how different tree types should look and feel within the game world.

I have an AI-generated automotive event poster for the Central Coast Poker Rally that I want professionally finished so it looks like a high-quality hand-painted motorsports poster, not AI-generated artwork.

I do not need a brand-new design. I already have the composition and artwork direction. I need an experienced Adobe Photoshop retoucher / digital paint-over artist to clean up and improve the existing poster.

The main work needed is:

Fix distorted or AI-looking car details
Correct wheels, tires, body lines, headlights, grills, and car shapes
Improve shadows, lighting, road texture, and depth
Soften or clean up small people/faces inside the cars so they look natural
Remove any fake signature, strange marks, blobs, or AI artifacts
Add a more natural hand-painted / collectible motorsports poster finish
Keep the same overall composition, cars, mood, and layout
Prepare the final file for professional printing at 18x24 inches, 300 DPI

I am looking for someone who can manually retouch and paint over the problem areas in Photoshop, not simply run the image through another AI upscaler.

Please send examples of before-and-after retouching, digital paint-over, poster artwork, automotive artwork, or AI image cleanup work.

Final deliverables should include a high-resolution print-ready file and an editable Photoshop file if possible.

Please use this file as the base artwork. I do not want the composition changed. I need the AI-looking areas professionally cleaned up, especially the cars, wheels, body lines, road, shadows, and small people inside the cars. The final artwork should look like a high-quality hand-painted motorsports poster and be prepared for 18x24 inch printing at 300 DPI.
INSTRUCTIONS: Please use this poster image as the base artwork. I like the overall composition, color, mood, and the white Corvette leading the group of cars. I do not want the poster redesigned or regenerated from scratch. I need this exact artwork professionally cleaned up, retouched, and finished so it looks like a high-quality hand-painted motorsports poster instead of AI-generated art.

The main areas that need professional correction are:

The cars behind the Corvette still look somewhat AI-generated. Please manually clean up the wheels, tires, headlights, windshields, body lines, grills, reflections, and car shapes so they look more natural and intentional.
The white Corvette in the front needs detail correction. Please refine the front bumper, headlights, hood lines, side intake, wheels, tires, and shadows so the car looks realistic, clean, and professionally illustrated.
The people inside the Corvette need to be softened and made more subtle. I do not want their faces to stand out too much. They should look natural, slightly shaded inside the car, and not AI-looking.
The smoke/dust behind the Corvette should be adjusted. I like the sense of motion, but it currently may look too artificial. Please make the tire smoke or dust look more natural and painterly.
The WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca wall/sign area needs cleanup. Please make sure the lettering and wall texture look intentional and professional, not distorted or messy.
Please remove or correct any strange AI artifacts, blobs, warped shapes, fake details, odd brush marks, or unnatural textures throughout the image.
Please improve the overall hand-painted motorsports poster look. I want it to feel like collectible event artwork for Monterey Car Week/Laguna Seca, with rich color, strong sunlight, clean car details, and natural painted texture.
Please keep the same overall scene, layout, mood, cars, and perspective. Do not add extra cars, remove the main Corvette, change the location, or make it cartoonish.

Final file needs to be prepared for professional printing as an 18x24 inch poster at 300 DPI, ideally 5400 x 7200 pixels. Please provide a high-resolution print-ready file and, if possible, an editable Photoshop PSD file.

Visual Pacing:Transform a 10 to 12-minute raw voiceover file into a fast-paced, high-retention visual masterpiece.
Advanced Motion Graphics: Create custom data charts, kinetic typography, highlighted document zooms, and map animations.

💼 Requirements:

Expert-level mastery of Adobe Premiere Pro & After Effects(or DaVinci Resolve / Blender / UE5 equivalents).
A strong portfolio demonstrating complex motion graphics, document tracking, and cinematic sound design.

The role involves creating and implementing a comprehensive social media strategy to enhance my online presence and engage with my audience effectively. The ideal candidate will have experience in managing social media platforms and developing marketing strategies to grow brand awareness.

• Why does the "Clarafied" brand concept (high-end boss bitch meets spiritual, funny life lessons) appeal to you, and how would you bring that aesthetic to life visually?

This role is for someone who understands creative development, anime/manga/comic production, worldbuilding documents, deadlines, and file organization. I need someone who can help me take story canon, character files, visual references, artist notes, and production tasks and organize them into a clean system.

This is not an artist role. This is a project organization and production support role.

What You’ll Help With:

* Organizing project canon documents, lore files, character files, and worldbuilding notes
* Turning completed canon files into organized folders, summaries, checklists, and task boards
* Helping create deadlines and production timelines
* Tracking what has been completed and what still needs work
* Organizing artist references, portfolios, contracts, and communication notes
* Helping manage project files in Google Drive, Notion, Trello, ClickUp, or similar tools
* Creating simple production checklists for characters, cities, scenes, story arcs, and visual development
* Helping me stay on schedule as the project grows
* Preparing organized files that can be shared with artists, writers, editors, or future collaborators
* Supporting communication and scheduling when needed

Ideal Experience:

* Experience as a project assistant, creative assistant, production assistant, or coordinator
* Familiarity with anime, manga, comics, animation, webtoons, or entertainment development
* Strong organization skills
* Comfortable working with large worldbuilding/story documents
* Able to create clean systems for folders, notes, deadlines, and task tracking
* Experience with Google Drive, Notion, Trello, ClickUp, Airtable, or similar tools
* Good communication and attention to detail
* Able to work with an independent creator building an original IP from the ground up

I’m looking for an illustrator to create an original artwork piece for a premium combat sports rashguard brand called NOMAD Fightwear.

The concept is based on Heracles/Hercules wrestling the Nemean Lion from Greek mythology. This will be the main back artwork for a rashguard and potentially the flagship design of the brand.

The artwork should feel powerful, ancient, and premium — not cartoonish. I want it to combine the feel of Greek mythology, ancient sculpture/vase art, tattoo-style linework, and modern combat sports energy.

The key image I want is Heracles grappling/wrestling the Nemean Lion, ideally with Heracles controlling the lion in a wrestling-style front headlock or dominant clinch position. It should feel like a mythological combat scene, but still translate well onto fightwear.

Style Direction:

Ancient Greek / mythological aesthetic
Strong tattoo-style or engraved linework
Premium streetwear feel
Powerful anatomy and movement
Suitable for printing on the back of a rashguard
Dynamic but not overly cluttered
Could draw inspiration from Greek statues, pottery, heroic myth scenes, and traditional combat sports grappling positions

Important:
This must be an original illustration. Please do not copy existing Hercules/Nemean Lion artwork, statues, or copyrighted images directly. Reference images can be used for inspiration only.

Deliverables:

Final high-resolution artwork suitable for apparel printing
Transparent background version
Layered file if possible: PSD, AI, or similar
PNG/JPEG preview files
Commercial usage rights included
Ideally artwork that can later be adapted into a full rashguard design

What I’m Looking For:
I’m looking for someone who understands dramatic character illustration, mythology, anatomy, and apparel graphics. Experience with tattoo-style art, fightwear, streetwear, or sports apparel is a bonus.

This first job is for the main illustration only. If the result is strong, there may be follow-up work for the full rashguard layout, sleeve graphics, typography, and future mythology-themed designs.

To Apply, Please Include:

Examples of your best character or mythology-style illustration work
Any tattoo, apparel, or combat sports design work
A quick note on how you would approach Heracles wrestling the Nemean Lion
Whether you can provide layered files and commercial rights
Your estimated turnaround time

I’m after something bold, premium, and memorable — the kind of artwork that could become the identity of the first major NOMAD Fightwear release.

I'm a Bay Area based residential interior designer (Lost and Found) seeking an ongoing CAD partner to support my project drawings.

About the work

I work on high-end residential projects and need clean, presentation-ready CAD drawings to support my design work, client presentations, and contractor coordination. The first project is a luxury apartment in the Bay Area (eight rooms plus an outdoor balcony), with additional projects in the pipeline. I'd love to build a long-term working relationship.

Scope of work for the first project (Springline)
Floor plans for each of eight rooms (Living Room, Dining Room, Primary Bedroom, Primary Bathroom, two kids' rooms, Kids' Bathroom, Hallway Nook), plus an outdoor balcony. Each plan to show furniture placement at scale, rug footprints, lighting positions on the floor, and room dimensions.

Note: the Living Room and Dining Room share one open floor plan but should be designed as two distinct functional zones.

Elevation drawings for selected walls, with priority on:
Hallway Nook wall featuring hand-painted de Gournay wallpaper. Requires precise dimensions and detail mapping for the de Gournay studio to plan the painted panels.

Two additional walls in rooms with patterned wallpaper (Phillip Jeffries grasscloth and Farrow & Ball Broad Stripe) where panel layout matters.
Living Room walls showing furniture placement and paint specifications.

Primary Bedroom showing furniture, wallpaper boundaries, and window treatments (Note: revised draft will be done after the early July meeting).

Lighting plans, simplified format only. Floor-plan markup showing position of pendants, chandeliers, and recessed cans per room, plus basic switching notes (which switch controls what). No elevation work needed for lighting because fixtures are limited to ceiling-mounted (no wall sconces requiring mounting-height callouts). Paired with a simple fixture schedule listing each item with vendor and spec.
Material and finish schedules tied to plan locations (floor, wall, ceiling, trim per room).

What I’m looking for

Designer or architect comfortable working in AutoCAD, SketchUp, or Revit (whatever your preferred tool, I'm flexible).

Clean, presentation-ready output. The drawings will be shared with clients, contractors, and renderers.

Experience with high-end residential projects preferred. Familiarity with brands like Pierre Frey, Phillip Jeffries, and de Gournay is a plus but not required.

Comfortable working from my marked-up photos and dimensional sketches rather than only from architect-supplied plans. I have detailed site notes I can hand off as inputs.

Practical notes on the work
For outlets and switches, I'll spec standard heights (outlets 15 inches, switches 48 inches from floor) unless I call out a specific position. Focus elevation accuracy on ceiling fixtures, art placement, wallpaper boundaries, and architectural built-ins.

I work primarily from photos and field measurements when architectural plans do not exist (this is one such apartment). Comfort drawing from photos and notes is important.
I'll provide a written scope per drawing with reference images, dimensions, and design intent.

To apply, please share
Three to five samples of your past work, especially residential floor plans, elevations, and lighting plans.
Your rate (per drawing, per project, or per hour, whatever you prefer).

Your typical turnaround for floor plans, elevations, and lighting plans.

Any reference designers, architects, or studios you've worked with.
Your preferred file delivery format (PDF, AutoCAD, SketchUp, Revit).

Project timing
I have a client meeting scheduled for July 3, 4, or 5. To meet that timeline, I need the first round of drawings completed within one week of hiring. I'm willing to pay above standard rates for the speed.

A note on the first deliverable
I'm starting our working relationship with one paid deliverable (the outdoor balcony drawing) as a working-fit check. This is paid work at your standard rate, not spec work. You'll be compensated for the deliverable regardless of whether we continue together.

If the first deliverable is strong (clean output, good communication, on-time turnaround), we'll move forward with the full Round 1 scope due by end of June and an ongoing partnership across additional projects in my pipeline. If we're not the right fit for either of us, you're still paid for the work you completed.

This approach protects both of us: you're paid for real work, I get to evaluate fit on a small scope before committing to the full project.

Round 1 (week 1 from hire, ideal completion by June 27th):
All deliverables needed for the July 3 to 5 client meeting. Includes all eight floor plans plus the outdoor balcony with furniture placement and lighting markup, priority elevations for Living Room, Hallway Nook (de Gournay wall), and Primary Bedroom, and initial material schedules for those three rooms.

Note that the Living Room and Dining Room share one open floor plan but should be designed as two distinct functional zones
Round 2 (ideal completion by June 30th):
Remaining elevations for other rooms.
Final material schedules across all spaces.
Any revisions from round 1.

Round 3 (post-meeting, week of July 6)
2nd drafts of Primary Bedroom

I'm targeting a long-term ongoing partnership across additional Bay Area residential projects in my pipeline. The right freelancer becomes my CAD partner going forward. Future projects will have longer lead times.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

I’m looking for a highly articulate, relationship-focused Social Media and Collector Relations Assistant with near-native English skills who can authentically engage with collectors and artists. Responsibilities include managing social media, crafting compelling content, and fostering meaningful connections. The ideal candidate will have a strong understanding of the art world and be able to communicate effectively with diverse audiences.

ABOUT ME
I run a fast-growing faceless Dungeons & Dragons / TTRPG YouTube channel with over 90,000 subscribers and am looking to bring on an additional editor to help me continue to grow the channel.

Outside of running this channel, I work professionally in film production, marketing, and teach film production. If you are a media/film student or a newer editor looking to build a bulletproof resume, refine your pacing, and learn industry-standard production and asset management workflows, this role is designed for you.

THE GOAL

I am expanding the production schedule from one video every two weeks to once a week if note more, and I am looking for a dedicated, creative editor to join the forge and grow with me.

Be the Lixian to my Markiplier, and if you understand that reference then I know you're the right person lol.

THE WORK AND WORKFLOW

You will be handed everything you need to succeed. We run a clean, professional pipeline:

What we provide:
-A fully edited, scripted master audio track, specific character/persona art assets, structured stock footage folders, and a clear creative brief.
-Your job: Assemble the visual narrative. This involves cutting B-roll, integrating custom art assets, adding dynamic text/lower thirds, and ensuring the pacing keeps viewers highly engaged.
-Turnaround: Strict 4-day turnaround per video once assets are delivered. (For context, a 20-minute video takes me roughly 8 hours of editing time).

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
-Technical Foundations: Proficient in Adobe Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve. You understand the basics of multi-track editing, audio balancing, and clean export settings.
-TTRPG/D&D Literacy: You must understand the tabletop RPG space. You know what a D20 is, what a Dungeon Master does, and can pick up on visual cues when the audio mentions specific monsters, classes, or tropes.
-Receptive to Feedback: A desire to learn. You view constructive feedback as a tool to sharpen your craft. With that said, I will keep each video to no more than 2 rounds of subjective feedback.
-Reliability: Able to meet a consistent, predictable weekly deadline. I work on a strict 3 strikes system.
-Someone who see's this as a paid internship more than a gig. I put a lot of work into my channel and want someone who understands my goals.

HOW TO APPLY (Please no copy and paste letters, I will ignore it)
To ensure you’ve read this posting and understand the niche, please reply with:
- A brief introduction about your experience with video editing and your personal connection to D&D/TTRPGs.
- A link to your portfolio, reel, or examples of videos you have edited.
- The Secret Word: To prove you aren't an AI bot spamming applications, please include the word "INITIATIVE" at the very top of your message.

The Selection Process - Paid Trial Run
We respect your time and your craft. If your initial application is a good fit, we will move to a Paid Trial Run before making a long-term commitment.
- The Test: You will be given a short 2-to-3-minute segment and a small pool of assets.
- The Goal: This is designed to test your baseline pacing, visual storytelling instincts, and how you handle asset placement within our channel's style.
- Compensation: This is a fully paid trial. Win or lose, you will be compensated a flat $[Insert Amount, e.g., $40–$50] for your time and effort on the sample edit.
- Feedback: Because mentorship is a core part of this role, I will provide direct, constructive feedback on your trial edit so you know exactly where you stand.

The artwork will be sold as high-quality framed canvas and poster prints through a print-on-demand partner (Printful or similar). Example is a brand called:

Ethetic.co

I'm looking for someone to create an 8-second seamless Spotify Canvas from my existing cover artwork.

NO AI of any kind please!! :))

I want to preserve the design of the artwork and have a canvas that feels like an extension of the still image. My idea is to animate illustrated elements like the clouds, stars, doodles, bubbles, etc. while maintaining the handmade feel of the original cover art.

A few ideas I had:

* Clouds drifting slightly
* Bubbles floating upward
* Stars twinkling
* Doodles/spirals gently moving
* Radiating lines around the subject subtly animating
* A very subtle camera push or parallax effect

Looking for someone who is artistic and can maintain the feel of the picture and expand upon it organically, as well as extending it out to fit the vertical formatting in a super natural way!

Deliverables:

* 8-second seamless loop
* Spotify Canvas format
* Final exported file ready for Spotify

Please include examples of similar animation or motion design work in your proposal.

I am open to discussing budget as well depending on how many hours you think this would take to complete!

I have 4 characters from a fantasy series that I want to create fantasy trading cards that I can print out. I will list all their stats and info and their image. I want an actual artist to create the character art, no AI for the actual character. Example below. I used AI to show the template and outline I'm looking for as well as the colors. I have 4 characters. Need 4 cards.

I need a design for an art car which is kind of like a go cart but with a artistic design. I would like a skyship from the book "The Edge Chronicles" that is built on an EV "skateboard" chassis that is controlled via an old fashioned ships wheel on top of the steering platform. This will be actually physically built so try and draw it on a human scale as possible with keeping close to real world constraints.
