FairestMoss 32 August 11, 2016 Share August 11, 2016 (edited) Are there any style requirements for becoming a staff artist? For example, do we have to draw in FiM style and does our art have to be perfectly clean or will sketchy do?

Oblivion 20,275 August 21, 2016 Share August 21, 2016 Heh, always wanted to contribute something to this site in terms of volunteer work, yet these days I just wouldn't have the time or the energy to stick it out and do a good job. So good luck to all those that have applied. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Forum Moderators would not be in the know on Public Relations based hiring unless they also happen to be involved in a PR leadership role. Reach out to Nervous Stitch directly if you have any follow-up questions about the process. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I apologize! I missed that notification. No, there are no style requirements for staff artists. Each of our artists have wonderfully different art styles. Any style must simply be pleasing to the eye! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each of our artists have wonderfully different art styles. Any style must simply be pleasing to the eye! "Pleasing to the eye" is extremely subjective. Anyone who has been practicing art long enough is probably drawing something that they themselves find appealing or pleasing to the eyes, but just because they themselves like it doesn't mean others will. The fact that you would tell me that there is no requirement and in the same breath tell me that it has to be "pleasing to the eye" tells me that it's very likely none of you have even bothered to discuss those personal preferences to come to a consensus about what you do and do not like or want. This disorganization forces everyone who's applying into pure guesswork, which is unfair to applicants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course hiring is subjective; also please do note that art quality/style/"eye pleasingness" is not the only thing taken into account.

4HFan 476 August 31, 2016 Share August 31, 2016 Could I please see an example of an application for the Staff Writer position? I'm rather interested in applying for that position. I've been gone from this world for what seems like millennia, Looking for nothing short of a miracle, I only ever wanted to come home, Please won't you let me go? When I have nowhere left I can run away, Will you lie to me, tell me I'll be okay? Close my eyes and lay me in my tomb. Then pull the trigger and send me home. - Crown The Empire - Millenia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have newfound information or forgot to include something on your last application, I don't see any harm in applying once more, although your first application may still be taken into account if it wasn't too long ago! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Techno Universal 2,575 December 2, 2016 Share December 2, 2016 Well I was thinking of applying for a writer but truely I'm more of a theorist sort of person. But still maybe we could have theorists on the forms in the future. So basically they go around and answer questions and post comments on the forms based on their theories of the show. Truely in the end it would make the forms a lot more fun and interesting for people.
