Do you believe every image is an opportunity to tell a story? Do you mainline aesthetics and output imagery that enchants and apprehends the unsuspecting? Could you create compelling tutorials on YouTube using the terms "rule of thirds", composition, contrast, negative space? Are you a master in the usual suspects: Photoshop, Illustrator, XD,
Wacom? Are you always looking to expand your skills in other mediums...3D (Blender, et al), animation (After Effects and Premier Pro), clay, paint, pencil? If so, we might have just the role for you.
