Job @ CollegeHumor

I'm emailing to ask if you know any students or contacts who might be interested in a well paying part time freelance job here at CollegeHumor.

We are designing a book of our websites best content over the last ten years. I am designing the layouts right now, but in the next 6 weeks we are going
to need someone to help putting the 256 pg book in InDesign and get it ready for the printers. We normally have a publisher do this for the past books, but the company decided to try this one in house. The problem is that we are a website and out of me and the other designer I'm the only one with much print/publishing experience and I just can't handle laying out this book alone and also work on webdesign.

Basically we are looking for a designer who knows InDesign pretty well and understands procedures for print. Typography is also a must ;)
If you know anyone who might be interested please have them contact me at kevin.crowe@connectedventures.com and we can have them come in to interview.

Also a plus, we work in the Frank Gehry designed IAC building and we are all a bunch of young kids who like to have fun at work, so it would definitely be an incredibly cool experience regardless of the work.

Promotional Designer Position at Elle Decor

Elle Decor's promotional department:

Full-time, permanent position. (I should mention that this could change into a sort of perma-lance thing)

For the Promotional Designer role at Elle Decor. The role includes a variety of projects, from designing event invitations and signage, in-book advertorials and promo pages, media kits, e-blasts... basically anything the marketing/sales staff needs designed.

I would recommend that the candidate have at least 2-3 years magazine experience. They should also be comfortable designing within the Elle Decor brand aesthetic, which is very clean, elegant, and minimal.

You can contact me directly at this email address, erinfriedmann@gmail.com, and I will make sure your portfolios are passed on.

Looking for a jr. designer

Hey everybody -

I apologize for the somewhat mass email, but I finally got clearance on getting some design help and I am terribly excited to get the word out. Yes, I’m at work on memorial day, so that should tell you exactly how badly I need said help. And I’m emailing you because I a) respect your judgment in such things “design” b) you may be in a position to hear about fresh new designers looking to start out and/or c) I don’t think you’d send me someone who will make my life miserable. So if you know a fresh young graduate, or someone new enough in the biz to still be looking for an entry-level position, please send them my way. (It is a true entry-level position, but if there’s someone really fab who is more designer than junior designer I MAY be able to negotiate with the hiring team, but no guarantees there, I barely got this approved.)

Requirements:

— good design skills, with a quick hand at indesign especially, photoshop & illustrator a must.
— definite knowledge/interest in science fiction/fantasy/comics
— experience in blogging, web, social media a plus, but not necessary.

Job:

— mechanicals design for Orbit Books (scifi and fantasy) and Yen Press (manga comics)—and for those of you not familiar with publishing speak, that means they take an already-designed cover and make the spine/back/flaps to go with
— some catalogs, ad promo projects
— light admin, along the lines of scanning, chasing invoices, routing things around the building
— very good opportunities for expanding into covers, series logos, self-driven projects for the web/for authors

It’s a really good position for someone to grow in, and get to take on a lot more as they go on, as there’s only 2 of us holding down both imprints and I’m not very formal about hierarchy. The really important thing is that they like the geeky stuff, because if they don’t, we’ll drive them mad with quibbling over spaceship details and the manga will make them want to claw out their eyes. But it’s heaven for a geek.

Please feel free to have them send intros/resumés to me directly – the official job post is below but I’d like to pre-screen before I get HR involved.

Temp Freelance at Time Inc. Content Solutions

We're looking for several freelance positions here at Time Inc. Content Solutions. All of them temporary.


The first is an immediate need : Junior designers/interns to help flow text, capable of making necessary adjustments on layouts if necessary. This person should have/had experience in magazines or a design studio and be able to work in InDesign, Photoshop.


The second
is less immediate. We are often required to put together entire campaigns and presentations within a week to 10 days, which include magazine design, web design, accompanying collateral, etc. We are looking for very capable designers who are good collaborators and can help formulate and create these RFP's (requests for proposals). There are several people that we've used in the past, but I feel that we really need to start building a pool of talent.

The third: We have relied heavily on one source to help create some of the information graphics that we create here for many of our clients in finance. I am looking for recommendations of talented information graphics designers who can work for us on a freelance, project basis, out of house. They need to be people who really understand the subject matter. Not just artists who make things pretty.

I know there are a lot of out of work designers out there. Please ask them to email there resume to me at syndi_becker@timeinc.com, or please send me any emails, numbers, etc of recommendations that you can think of.

Much appreciated.

Job Opportunity - Architectural Record

This is a dream job-in the ³new normal² world. This is a 4-6 month fill-in as AD of the 115 year-old premiere magazine of record about architecture, Architectural Record. This is a monthly and the flagship publication of my group-with a newsstand presence. I need a seasoned magazine AD who is completely hands on-this is not a managerial slot. An affinity for and knowledge of architecture is essential. The ability to create information graphics-site plans and sectional diagrams-both in-house and working with an out-of-house illustrator-essential. Beautiful architecture shoots of beautiful designs. Great editors. This is a great portfolio opportunity.

This gig requires jumping in and getting your hands dirty-and having fun creating designs that are as smart as the content. Full time (5-day week) on-site only. Possibility of staying longer and possibly transitioning to staff.

Are you interested? Does anyone else come to mind?

Email me at francesca_messina@mcgraw-hill.com

Appreciate any thoughtsŠ
