We're hiring a contract graphic designer to own the marketing visuals for a major live event brand this fall. You will design the assets that sell the event: announcement flyers, lineup drops, artist cards, countdowns, ticket pushes, and social content. We supply the photos and the copy. You supply design at a level that competes with the best event brands in the space.

For the caliber of work we expect, see @theafroplus on Instagram. That is the reference point for finish, typography, and overall polish.

What you will do

• Design event marketing graphics on a weekly production schedule: flyers, lineup announcements, artist spotlights, ticket promos, countdowns, feed and story assets
• Deliver on a fast cadence. Expect new deliverables every other day, plus occasional same-day requests
• Build and maintain the event's visual system: fonts, colors, textures, and reusable templates
• Export platform-ready final files at the correct sizes with clean, sharp finishing

What we are looking for

• A portfolio showing event, music, or festival marketing design with a high level of finish
• Strong typography, layout, and photo treatment skills: texture, grain, halftone, color grading, compositing
• Speed without sacrificing quality, and responsive communication during WAT working hours
• Bonus: familiarity with Afrobeats, gospel, or culture-forward event design; basic motion skills

We're hiring a contract video editor with strong motion graphics skills to own the short-form video content for a major live event brand this fall. You will cut the videos that sell the event: promo edits, motion graphic pieces, countdowns, artist announcements, and recap-style content. Formats vary by placement, from social feeds and stories to screens and web, so you will work in both vertical and horizontal.

This is a motion-heavy role. Motion graphics are half the job: keyframed text animation, photo and text overlays, and fully animated graphic pieces, not just cuts and transitions.

Style references

These are the kinds of videos you will be making. Watch them before applying:

What you will do

• Edit short-form video on a weekly production schedule: promo edits, motion graphic pieces, lineup and artist announcements, countdowns, and ticket pushes
• Deliver on a fast cadence, around five deliverables weekly, plus occasional same-day requests
• Animate text and graphics with clean keyframing: type reveals, tracked overlays, photo pop-ups, kinetic type
• Export platform-ready files in whatever format the placement calls for, vertical or horizontal

What we are looking for

• A reel or portfolio showing event, music, or culture-forward short-form edits with a high level of finish
• Strong motion graphics skills: keyframing, easing, kinetic typography, and animated overlays (text and photos)
• A real graphic design eye, and beat awareness: your cuts and animations sit on the music
• Speed without sacrificing quality, and responsive communication during WAT working hours
• Bonus: familiarity with Afrobeats, gospel, or event culture content; sound design skills
