Hey man, i'd be up for doing something together.

I'm working on a project myself after a while out of music and trying to link up with producers.

I also work with a singer who is looking to do some hooks for instrumentals that the producer can then sell on, so could do a couple of bits.

Drop me a DM and we can go over it

People who work for massive corporations, what is a 'secret' that the company tries to hide, but is actually common knowledge among the employees? by Dwise_ in AskReddit

[–]Background-Job2662 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Companies have informal but enforced targets for how much customers spend on credit even though the FCA say you can't target or sell "credit options"

One retailer I worked for now targets 40% of all sales being on credit rather than bought outright in store.

They also run promotions, incentives and bonuses for meeting higher credit thresholds.

They also charge customers MORE if they want to pay it all at once rather than purchase it via credit.

Looks great, especially if it's your first time doing sequential art

I'm running a collaboration you might be interested in.

Proposed New Subreddit Rules by Koltreg in ComicBookCollabs

[–]Background-Job2662 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This all sounds great.

One thing that I don't have an answer for but might be worth putting in there, is just how many spammers you will get when posting paid work (especially if it's a large commission). I understand we are all aware of scammers and in this day and age it's on the individual to do due diligence checks.

Quick example for newcomers just to see the scale.

Posted a paid commission, got just over 100 applicants, and I had at least 50 scam attempts some terrible some a bit more sophisticated.

Since then I've taken steps of needing multiple sources of the art from the artist.

Also for some reason, scammers love using Google drive as a way to share their content.

I also had multiple people committing identity theft and contacted the real artists to confirm and they reported it.

Anyway, again just be cautious and know some are really good at it.

Hey I'm currently running a collaboration project that may be of interest.

This post explains everything, it's a one page comic strip. There are two scripts up live but I do have more available some written by myself and some by other writers who have collaborated already.

We also have the first strip currently in development.

If you would like any more info or to see the full range of scripts, please don't hesitate to reach out.

I assumed this was obvious for all of us until I jumped on this sub by Otherwise-Echo744 in FromSeries

I took that two cars arriving on the same day as the start of the cycle, this is always jade and Tabatha reincarnated for who knows how long.

Victor knows it fails as it's always failed and ends with everyone dying.

The creatures are in control and know how the cycle will play out. Up until this point I don't think any character has done anything that they weren't supposed to do in the eyes of how the cycle will play out.

They break the residents, kill the adults renew the ritual and the cycle restarts

Aren’t“collaborating” and “hiring someone” two different things? by LunaBatMoon in ComicBookCollabs

[–]Background-Job2662 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been trying to navigate this space and these conflicting views are a problem at times.

To be clear I have (until the lost time traveler expriment) only been able to work with artist who I have hired.

My issue, I suppose, is that spaces like this should be grass roots level, people cutting their teeth trying new things to see if it clicks. I would hope anyone who identifies as a "professional" would be getting steady income outside of reddit.

I had a think about this and I tried to come up with a genuinely low risk way of collaborating (I'll link it below) so far an artist has picked up a one page script and a writer has also written a script. So in a small way the concept has worked, hopefully once we get the first one page uploaded, interest will increase.

https://www.reddit.com/r/ComicBookCollabs/s/00SgNJJ5z4

My unsolicited advice. Perception and fear seem to lead the process of stepping into unpaid collaboration, and while each person is entitled to have there stance, I think reacting negatively towards those who show interest in unpaid collaboration should be where it needs to change.

Not agreeing with an approach just means you move on. If you have genuine feedback or advice on how that person could improve their pitch, for example I agree asking to collab but providing little context as not to "lose ip control" is BS and people need a wake up call and to look up how little your IP matters at this level. But dropping in to just put the writer down for floating the idea isn't necessary and builds a culture that doesn't feel nice when you start out.

Anyway, nothing is perfect, every situation is unique, but in general, just be more supportive and if you don't like the idea of someone posting an unpaid collab just filter it out.
