Young graphics/fashion designer wanted (Upper East Side)

Date: 2009-11-29, 9:29PM EST

Reply to: job-wsneg-1487408144@craigslist.org 



You must be an edgy graphics designer with a keen sense of commercial fashion preferable age 17-25. You MUST love old black and white films and photos and feel creative with them. I have started a brand of print designs based on vintage black and white photographs each with a theme we are interested in. The photos are often imperfect and low quality which we actually use artistically in the final design. We extend the theme of our graphics collection with text designs where we are free to let our minds wander. 

Our initial prints are geared for young males ages 15-30. The themes of our graphics are all about attitude, have alot of meaning but are fun too. Market testing of our prints have so far been very encouraging. 

If you feel you can be very creative with ageless beautiful old photographs so that a young male today can identify with... then please contact me with a link to your work. Note that I pay on a per project basis... which normally consists of a few designs along with color matching and presentation. You must also be a responsible person. 

Thank you. 


  • Compensation: Payment is on a project basis. If worked part time it can usually be completed in a couple of weeks
  • This is a part-time job.
