Digital projection/motion Designer – Dystopian 'Wizard of Oz'

The Project: Our performing arts college is deep into rehearsals for The Yellow Path—a high-concept, dystopian reimagining of The Wizard of Oz (opening March 2026). The setting is OzCorp: a 1950s "pretty prison" theme park where the Wizard uses vintage-style ads and TV screens to enforce "happiness." We have already completed a significant portion of the visual designs and video assets. However, due to a shift in our artistic vision, we need a designer to step in immediately to tweak existing assets and create a few select new pieces to ensure the look is cohesive. What Needs Doing: We have very clear ideas and existing examples to guide you. The workload involves: Refining Existing Work: Adjusting current projections and videos to match our updated "OzCorp" branding. This includes updating the Wizard’s castle interior and specific signage. New Asset Creation: Developing a 1950s house caught in a digital cyclone, a "processed" Munchkinland cornfield with a broken 1950s sign, and a haunted metallic forest littered with tech salvage. The Aesthetic: A blend of 1950s "perfect" Americana (think vintage Coca-Cola or soap ads) mixed with dark, industrial decay. The Ideal Candidate: Fast & Collaborative: We need a quick turnaround. I have the reference images and the vision ready—I just need your technical skills to bring them to the finish line. Skilled in Revision: You should be comfortable taking existing files/concepts and "plus-ing" them to match a specific brief. Pro-Level Output: While this is a school production, our standards are professional and reputable. Budget & Opportunity: As this is an educational production, our budget is limited, but the production value is extremely high. This is an ideal project for an artist looking for a high-concept, professional portfolio piece. Success here will lead to a go-to partnership for our future theatre seasons. To Apply: Please share your portfolio and confirm how quickly you can start. SEE RIGHT HAND COLUMN OF ATTACHED DOC. 12 in total

Prompt Engineer – AI Systems & Automation Specialist

I'm looking for someone who can build a solid and reliable prompting framework that delivers measurable ROI for business use cases, not just impressive demos. We need a prompt engineer who thinks like a systems architect, not just someone who can write clever prompts. You'll be designing, testing, and optimizing prompts for production-grade AI workflows. This isn't about getting ChatGPT to write poems; it's about building reliable, scalable prompt chains that solve real business problems. Deliverables What You'll Do: Design and optimize prompts for LLM-powered automation workflows (GPT-4, Claude, open-source models) Build evaluation frameworks to measure prompt performance against business KPIs Develop prompt templates and chains for multi-step reasoning tasks Document prompt engineering patterns and create reusable libraries Collaborate on agentic AI systems using frameworks like LangChain Debug and iterate on prompts when model outputs don't meet specifications Required Skills & Experience: 2+ years hands-on prompt engineering experience (personal projects count if well-documented) Deep understanding of prompt patterns: chain-of-thought, few-shot learning, system prompt architecture, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) Experience with prompt evaluation and A/B testing methodologies Familiarity with tokenization, context window management, and model-specific quirks Strong technical writing—you can explain complex prompt logic clearly Python proficiency for prompt testing and automation integration Preferred (Not Required): Background in ML/AI fundamentals (understanding of transformers, embeddings, fine-tuning concepts), at least foundational AI/ML understanding, you don't need to train models, but you understand concepts like temperature, context windows, and model limitations.

Applications without this will not be reviewed. Assessment Task (Required with Application) Instead of multiple interview rounds, complete this practical assessment: Scenario: A client wants to automate customer support ticket classification. Tickets should be categorized into: Billing, Technical, Feature Request, or Escalation. The model sometimes misclassifies urgent technical issues as "Feature Request." Your task: Write the system prompt you would use Provide 3-5 few-shot examples you'd include Explain your reasoning for structural choices Describe how you would evaluate and iterate on this prompt Time estimate: 30-45 minutes. We value thoughtful reasoning over speed. This task reveals: Do they understand edge cases? Can they structure prompts systematically? Do they think about evaluation? AI-generated responses typically miss the nuanced "why" behind choices. What Success Looks Like Prompts that work reliably at scale, not just in demos Clear documentation that another engineer could pick up Data-driven iteration, not just "try things until it works." To Apply: Submit your assessment response and a brief note on a prompt engineering challenge you've solved. Generic applications will not be reviewed.

Web application Expert

Senior Blockchain / Full-Stack Developer Needed to Rescue E-commerce Project We’re building an e-commerce platform that handles global shipping and international orders, but the project is hitting serious roadblocks. The codebase exists, but the system isn’t ready for launch, and our current team is struggling to fix complex issues. We need a senior developer who can step in, understand the existing architecture, and stabilize the platform before we go live. The platform combines a traditional e-commerce flow with blockchain elements. Smart contracts manage payments, tokenized rewards, and some transaction logic, while a Python backend handles order processing, inventory, and shipping coordination. The frontend is built with React.js. Right now, blockchain interactions are inconsistent, some transactions fail, and data between the frontend, backend, and smart contracts isn’t always syncing correctly. This isn’t a new project — it’s about rescuing something that already exists. We need someone with hands-on experience debugging Solidity contracts, resolving state issues, and integrating blockchain reliably with e-commerce systems. You’ll also coordinate fixes across the Python backend and React frontend, ensuring orders, payments, and shipping workflows function correctly. We’re looking for a problem-solver who can take ownership, work independently, and bring a production-ready mindset. If you’ve helped pre-launch blockchain projects get back on track, understand cross-border e-commerce complexities, and can ensure the system is secure, stable, and ready for users, you’re exactly who we need.

Short‑Form Video Editor for UGC‑Style Service Ads

Create 30–60s vertical testimonial‑style videos for local trade businesses (starting with roofers). Overview: I’m testing a new service for local SMEs in the trades: turning 4–5‑star customer reviews into short, cinematic videos for websites and social media. I need a low‑cost video editor to turn my detailed prompts and reference files into visually strong, UGC‑style vertical videos. What you will create: 45–60s vertical 9:16 videos (TikTok/Reels/Shorts). Based on time‑coded prompts I provide (e.g. 00:00–00:05 before shot, 00:05–00:20 arrival, 00:20–00:40 transformation, 00:40–00:60 CTA). “Show, don’t tell” service fulfilment: before/after, close‑ups of tools, hands, materials, process shots, movement. On‑screen text overlays for key ideas and CTA (e.g. “TURNED UP & COMPLETED”, “5 STARS”, “REPLY ‘ROOF’ FOR FREE QUOTE”). Simple sound design: background music and adding supplied or AI voiceover. What I will provide: A written prompt for each video, including structure, scenes, transitions and CTA. The review text (voiceover + optional on‑screen text). The business website for logo/brand reference. A Trade_Video_Reference_Library sample video file (style and pacing). A Video Production Quality Control Checklist (clear pass/fail criteria). Knowledge‑base/reference files where needed. Your responsibilities: Use stock, AI clips or supplied visuals to match each prompt as closely as possible. Follow the QC checklist, including clear before/after contrast and strong visual storytelling. Add basic motion graphics when requested (e.g. stars, impact dust, CTA frame). Deliver MP4 optimised for Reels/TikTok/Shorts, plus project files if possible. Style & quality: UGC‑style authenticity: slightly imperfect, gritty, real‑world feel suited to tradespeople. Still needs to look intentional and clear: clean framing, readable text, logical flow. Strong emphasis on: Before/after transformation. Hands, tools, textures, surfaces. Movement, time‑lapse, transitions. A strong final CTA frame. Initial deliverables (pilot): 3–5 finished 45–60s vertical videos as a test batch. Each one must follow its specific prompt and pass the QC checklist. If this goes well, there will be ongoing batches. Budget / pricing: Low cost is paramount – this is a concept validation phase. Please give your price per 45–60s video and your price for an initial batch of 3–5 videos. Ideal candidate: Short‑form video editor or UGC ads editor with examples of Reels/TikTok/Shorts, product/service ads, or testimonial‑style videos. Comfortable working from prompts, reference files and checklists. Fast, reliable, good communication, and able to keep costs low. Nice to have: experience with trades, home services, or performance‑focused social ads. Please include in your proposal: 3–5 examples of vertical short‑form videos you’ve edited. Tools you use (CapCut, Premiere, Final Cut, mobile, AI, etc.). Typical turnaround time per video. Your per‑video rate for ongoing batches (5–10 at a time).
