We're on the lookout for a talented graphic designer to collaborate with on various projects for our brands: www.emildale.co.uk, www.factoryplayhouse.com , www.dalehammondassocaites.com , www.kinthemusical.com , and www.emildalecreates.com . We have several ongoing design needs, working on a broad range of campaign collateral, both digital & print (from web & social assets, to digital screens, animations, press ads, leaflets, posters, brochures, and everything in between) while revitalising our brand image.
Currently, we're looking for a 'glow up' (logo and brand guidelines), and we believe additional design support would enhance our efforts. While we've been working closely with a website designer who has provided graphic design services in the past, we're now seeking dedicated assistance to meet our ongoing design demands while seamlessly integrating with our existing setup.
With projects lined up on a weekly basis, we're eager to establish a collaboration with a reliable designer who shares our vision.
In the spirit of transparency, we're exploring multiple avenues and plan to initiate a micro collaboration—perhaps a tile for Instagram—to gauge compatibility before proceeding further.
It's imperative that our designer possesses a strong grasp of digital design for various social media platforms, including Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and X.
For instance, once the brand guidelines are finalised, we'll require templates in Canva for announcement posts, alumni posts, teacher posts, workshop posts, audition posts, and open day posts. These templates are integral to our daily social media outreach and engagement efforts.
Furthermore, on an annual basis, we produce programmes for shows, show posters and banners, posters advertising our courses for print, and postcards.
We're eager to discuss this opportunity further with you. Let us know if its something you can help with.
