Description
Experience Level: Expert
Hello!
I'm a YouTuber who recently just launched his first merch store.
I'm interested in hiring/commissioning a talented graphic designer(s) to create a few designs for me! These designs might be for printing on T-shirts, for example—although the website I use allows me to put them on a bunch of different products as I see fit (coffee mugs, hoodies, etc). Basically, I want the designs to be relevant to my YouTube channel, so that I can plug them in videos on the appropriate subjects.
My channel: https://youtube.com/c/aSkepticalHumanOnYouTube
Channel description: "I debunk flawed arguments and false claims as thoroughly, convincingly and hilariously as I can. My goal is to change minds—or at the very least, make people more rational and informed."
The core subjects I focus on are politics, religion, conspiracy theories, pseudoscience, and climate change. To give you a rough idea of my views, I'm a progressive, politically (big Bernie Sanders supporter), an atheist, believe most conspiracy theories are BS, and think climate change deniers are ridiculous.
Ideally I'd like someone to create merch designs that somehow reflect the views of myself (and therefore much of my audience.) On top of that, I have two main things I'm looking for: #1) designs that are either hilarious, or #2) designs that are just incredibly dope, visually stunning. Combine all of those in one and wow that is a winning formula right there!
I'm only interested in applications from experienced designers who can point to a portfolio of merch designs they've already created! If you're some dude that made a logo some time for a guy's website or something, I'm sorry but that's just not good enough. If you can't honestly describe your designs as either downright amazing or seriously funny, you're just not what I'm looking for here. I am trying to attract TOP LEVEL TALENT here. I myself am quite skilled with Photoshop but my goal here is to hire an *expert* who can create incredible designs, designs that when people see them, they're like "Holy S#&t I need to buy that thing!"
My mindset is, I don't just want some mediocre merch to plug in my videos that fans of my channel might buy; I want the designs to be so good that people who might stumble upon the site and not even know about me would want to buy the items anyway.
If you think you can create some solid merch items that would fit very well with my channel, and if you have the skills to create a fantastic design that I could then purchase full commercial rights to, then let me know what you could do for me! Designers who take a look at my channel, get an idea of my views and tone and so forth, and pitch a few solid ideas in their application are a plus!
Not really sure what the industry norm is in terms of how much to charge for designs requests like this, or how much to pay for full commercial rights and so forth, but PPH recommended that I can attract top talent with a starting budget of $130, so I'll start there I guess. For someone whose design portfolio is truly amazing, I would comfortably pay more than that assuming they could pitch a solid idea and perhaps even produce a quick, preliminary sketch for me. If there are other standard ways of paying for such designs in this industry that I'm not aware of please feel free to let me know that that's what you'd prefer.
I look forward to hearing from you all!
Thanks!
