https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1197635075 for more info!! Hello everyone! Thank you so much to everyone who applied for the first round of ORBITZ auditions. The response was incredible, and I’m thrilled by all the talent that came forward. However, not all creative and ops roles were filled during the first round. To complete the team and make ORBITZ as strong as possible, I’m opening a second round of auditions specifically for these positions. The ORBITZ creative team has three main departments: writing, music, and design. Writing roles include: Manager Co-Manager Brainstormers (Pool) Video Writers (Pool) Music roles include: Manager Co-Manager Lyricists (Pool) Mixers (Pool) Design roles include: Manager Co-Manager Designers (Pool) Storyboarders (Pool) Animators (Pool) The ORBITZ operations team has three main departments: editing, public relations, and logistics. Editing roles include: Manager Co-Manager Specialized Editors (Pool) General Editors (Pool) PR roles include: Manager Co-Manager Content Creators (Pool) Logistics roles include: Assistant Manager Role Coordinators (Pool) You can audition as any of the "pool" roles, and I will choose two people to be the manager and co-manager of the department. You may audition for any pool you want and as many as you want. You do not need to audition to be a manager separately, as you are automatically entered as one and I will choose who has this role. To audition: Make a project (or use an already created project to showcase your skills. Then fill out the following forms: username (no @) // nickname // role(s) you are auditioning for // audition link(s) // time zone // activity level /10 // experience and in a reply: 1. why do you want to join ORBITZ? 2. tell me a bit about yourself! what youre interested in, how you identify, etc!! and that's all! the process is a little simpler than it used to be haha. There is no closing date for auditions. I will close these once the team is filled substantially.
Job descriptions (if you don't know what to audition for): The manager or co-manager of any department helps me oversee it. If I need help assigning roles for a specific project, they will be in control of doing that. They are also essentially the lead in that department, and will likely do more work than the general pool. Brainstormers come up with content ideas and outline videos, comebacks, etc. Video writers write our content in screenplay format. Lyricists write song lyrics for our songs. Mixers produce the instrumentals for our songs and overlay the vocals. Designers help with things like character design, clothing design, and music video design. Storyboarders create the storyboards for our animators to reference. Animators create the final animations for music videos and other content. Specialized editors edit specific things: music, art, or writing, depending on their specialty. General editors review everything, but at a shallower level. Content creators manage social media accounts and create posts on programs other than youtube. The assistant manager is my biggest helper with this project. If I am every extremely busy, they will take over temporarily. Role coordinators help organize people and assign their jobs for each project we work on. That's everything! If there are too many people auditioning for a certain role you may be moved to a similar role or limited to one of your choices, but usually I will give you what you want. That's everything! Feel free to ask questions.
