Illustrate it agency Artist’s area

Please see the following art calls below ⬇️ for our planned pitching cycles.
Please note:

  • You do not have to create work for all of the themes listed for every cycle - but if you want to, then of course you can!

  • I cannot guarantee that everyone’s work will go into every pitch deck - each deck is tailored to the client/company aesthetic.

  • Every pitch deck will have supporting ‘evergreen’ work, chosen from the main gallery included.

  • Every pitch deck will also point/link back to the main gallery - so no work is ever wasted.

⭐️ PITCHES ⭐️

I think that now would be a great time to work on putting pitches together!

The Fancy Pants show is successfully warming up the majority of our clients/leads - which means they will be open to more tailored pitches after the show, (great news for everyone!) 🙌 

So, let’s start building those pitches 👍 We have several options to choose from, and it would be great if everyone could choose what they would like to work on from the options below 👇 It would be best if you choose one project/market - and we get a strong pitch together before you expand into other markets/projects.

***I NEED EVERYONE TO LET ME KNOW WHAT THEY WANT TO WORK ON - So I can let you know what’s needed for your pitch*** (Please complete the poll in our Discord group)

✅ BOOK COVERS:

I have added you all to the ‘BOOKTEMBER’ book covers art challenge and you’ll get a mini brief each Monday afternoon 👍 

There are also plenty of covers listed in the Discord Group here.

✅ PUZZLES/GAMES/TOYS

These will be based on any of the baby/kids themes we have done - or, any STEM theme - I have a big list of them!

✅ EDITORIAL

These themes are normally Science/Nature, Health & Wellbeing, Love/Relationships, Hobbies & Interests and can be literal or concept art in full page, spots/vignettes and/or icons. I highly recommend you find Tom Froese on Skillshare/Instagram.

✅ PACKAGING

Based on any of the themes we have done - but laid out slightly differently in the pitch deck

✅ HOME DECOR / TEXTILES / GREETINGS / STATIONERY / GIFT - (AS WE WERE ALREADY DOING)
