✧ APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN ✧
Hello to all the Magical Girls, Boys and Witches in training! Ready your wands and tousle your broomsticks, because applications for A Day Off, a Magical Girl Zine are open!
We’re looking for Artists, Writers and Merch Artists to join our project, so if you’re interested, make sure to apply!
You’ll find the application links underneath.
You’ll have until April 17, 2020 to submit your applications, so make sure you do it before then.
We will be accepting 15 artists, 5 Merch artists and 5 Writers, for a total of 30 contributors including our invited guests.
Details about applications guidelines and tips on building up your portfolio can be found under the cut.
Merch Artist apps: [LINK]
We’re excited to see all of your lovely works!
General Application Guidelines:
Please keep everything SFW! Any samples provided that are NSFW will be disqualified.
For a portfolio, we’re asking for a google drive folder with at least 5 of your best works, as well as your social media links. This is applicable to all applicants (artists, writers, merch artists); the content of said folder will later be specified on every category.
*Please, make sure your google drive folder has the share option activated, or else we won’t be able to review your application.*
We will also be asking for some pitches in your application. In this section, we ask for ideas of what you would be able to create for the zine. This does not have to be final, but getting a gist of your idea will help us have even more variety in this zine!
- Please submit samples that are similar to the style that you will be using for the zine.
- Make sure that all your pieces are finished, and that at least one of your pieces has a detailed background, and at least one of your pieces include 2 or more people.
- It is preferred if you include a drawing of a magical girl, or a shoujo piece in your portfolio so that we are able to estimate what your style for this zine could be like.
- We ask that all samples have a word count of 2 – 2.5k. This is to allow the mods to review all pieces. You can use standalone pieces (one shots) or excerpts of longer works, from either posted works or pieces that haven’t been posted yet.
- The pieces in the portfolio aren’t restricted in length.
- It would be preferred if at least one of the samples fits the theme, but it is not a requirement.
- All your pieces have to be finished, and of a similar style of the merch that you are planning to create for the zine.
- If you apply to both Artist and Merch Artist, please make sure you change the samples you apply with.
- It is preferred if at least one of your samples is a merch design.
