The GT is looking for those who have talent and the desire to volunteer their time and skills to create in-house graphics for FP as well as fulfilling requests through the Graphics Services to earn FP$ or real $.
To qualify you must meet the following:
- You must have been a member of Forum Promotion for 60 days
- You must have made at least 50 posts on Forum Promotion
- You must not have received a Warning in the past 60 days
- You must have some artistic talent even if you did not have an educational background in graphics (experience over education counts!)
- You must be willing to sign up on Slack (can do so through your browser) for security purposes if you get locked out of your account on FP
- You must be able to take direction from @Katrina and follow through on suggestions or corrections
- You must be willing to sign a legal and binding contract agreeing that Forum Promotion retains the copyright of all graphics you create, even if you quit or get fired
Your duties as a Graphics Team Member:
- You will be revamping some of the graphics that are outdated (not the site logo; we love that!)
- Your work will be volunteer unless you are selected to do a paid graphic through the Graphics Services
- You will work as a team to come up with ideas, and must be able to meet deadlines
- Some of the graphics to be done will be images for events, social media, banner ads, as well as revamping existing images for other FP Teams
- You must be active at least twice a week on FP, but still be reached through Slack if needed more often
Why work for Forum Promotion on the Graphics Team?
- If selected to design for a paying member through the Graphics Services, you will receive 90% of the money paid by the member/client at the completion of your design (once approved by the member/client)
- You will receive FP$ for most of the graphics created (amount determined by complexity of the design)
- Even though you cannot claim the copyright for the works you create (see above contract agreement requirement), you will still be able to put the graphics into your portfolio so that you can acquire more clients and paid opportunities
- If you're new to the design world but have the talent, you'll be working with other graphic artists who can assist in furthering your skills not only for design but in using various software programs
