Description:



DO NOT BID ON THIS PROJECT UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING TO PRODUCE THE SAMPLE!

This is a project which you will do every month. It is a monthly publication,
which will be published in PDF format (not in print). You may create it using
any page-layout software you wish, but we would prefer someone who uses
QuarkExpress for the PC. We publish another weekly magazine in the same format
and you can find the archives of that magazine at
www.spweekly.com/artengine/publish.php and you will need to click on the “login”
link on the right and enter guest and test for the user/password, and after you
login you will see a link to the archives in the right column, below a small
magazine cover image.

Each month the editor will supply you with text files and you will need to
create a publication with the files sent. The editor will tell you how many
pages the magazine must be when he sends the files, but in most cases it will be
about 64 pages) and you must create an issue with that number of pages. It's
obviously quite easy to stretch it if need be, but you will likely have more
material than needed for the amount of pages required.

We do not supply graphics, and it will be up to you to get them, but more often
than not a graphic is available at a company's web site, either their logo, an
image of the person the article is about, a product shot etc. Sometimes the
editor will suggest something for the cover, other times it will be entirely up
to you.

This is not a difficult job for a good designer, and while we don't require
award winning layouts and graphics every week, we do want it to have a very
professional look and feel, with a great sense of style to it.

The great part of this project is that you have a great deal of creative
freedom, within certain limits.

The project requires that you are able to create the publication in 72 hours of
receipt of the text, which will be available no later than 3:00pm EST (that's
GMT –5 hours) on the day we agree to give it to you, and the publication must be
ready by 3:00pm EST 72 hours later

You must have a Broadband Internet connection to bid on this project and we
will no consider anyone who does not have this. The first issue will publish at
the end of March 2005 and monthly thereafter. You must also be available to
start on March 29th, 2005 and be able to perform the work every month as
required.

You MUST be able to show us your work, and be willing to create a 32 page
sample publication in 72 hours as proof of your ability, so if you do not wish
to produce a sample as described, please don't bother to bid. There is no pay
for creating the sample since it will be from content from an issue that has
already been issued, so there is nothing for us to gain from having you do it,
except to be sure you are capable. You can find the text (and a couple of
photographs of the person for the interview article) for the sample here:
www.possibilitymedia.com/digitale.zip You will need to create a cover and layout
for the contents page and staff box, as well as 32 pages for the inside, which
should have a number of double-spreads. Please note we count double-spreads as
single pages, so the total page count although only 32 (plus cover and contents)
is actually more, due to the spreads. Please post a message on the PMB when you
have downloaded the sample text and we will expect the publication within 72
hours of that time, give or take a few hours.

This will develop to a long-term project for the right person.

Please place your bid for producing the publication every month, and be sure
you are capable of doing this project monthly.

You will also be responsible for creating in-house promos for the magazine as
required.

As usual, we will not pay for the work until we have it, but as our reviews
attest, whatever we agree to pay, we will. This is a rule we live by and we will
not change it. If you do not agree to these terms, then please do NOT bother to
bid. Your bid on this project is your explicit acceptance of all the project
terms and conditions.
