Applying for Victualler Membership
Inc Signoholics Live
4. We
have introduced our new Victualler membership level to help those members
of Signohollics who have outstanding skills and talent to showcase themselves
and their gifts. We
are also very proud of the work they do and love to highlight it as shining examples
of what can be achieved in the melding of traditional methodology and modern
medias. We strongly market this section of our membership to specialist
sectors across the globe.
Each Victualler will have their own one page website detaling their work
and skills & linked to their Signoholics (Customisable) profile & gallery,
this linked to Signo Search. These
pages will form part of the resume that are marketed to highly specialised
sectors on a worldwide scale, leading to work offers for individuals and
teams that could result in some amazing job opportinities in some very interesting
venues and industries.
Each accepted Victualler will become part of the Victuallers Table and Signoholics
Live, and as such will be able to express an interest in all jobs that come
through Signoholics. The client will then browse the Victualler webprofiles
and make their choice of designer. Victuallers
will have access to various exclusive print ready Victualler decals via our
special download server and a unique membership code and certificate, in
addition to reproduction to Signoholics live / Victualler decal reproduction
rights for stationary and livery branding etc.
Victualler members will have an upgraded rank attached to their profiles which displays their status to the prospective clients.
5. Membership of the Victualler Table is not automatic and is subject to strict criteria and an application process. There are two methods of joining the Victualler Table and 'applying for design jobs. The first method is via an annual subscription fee of £199. (This option including various printed decals and a complementary Signoholics premium T Shirt)
The
second method is to pay 15% of any design jobs they succeed in being awarded.
This is 15% of any and all design jobs that go through Signoholics. Annual
subscription Victuallers will only pay 5%.
Signoholics
reserve the right to refund, in full, any monies paid and refuse admission
to the Victuallers Table. Membership is, as previously mentioned,
not automatic and must meet the Signoholics Design Code. As part
of the application process 'would be' members must submit five good
quality photographs showing examples of work they believe meet, display
an understanding of and show examples of good: layout; colour; balance;
and negative space. IT and machinery can be used as a
compliment to excellence in design. These
photographs must be accompanied by a written (typed) method statement
for each example detailing how each product was made and what materials
and processes were utilised.
We believe and hope that this scheme will encourage and help realise
one of Signoholics main ambitions - that is to recreate
the art of beautiful signage and associated crafts and skills. The is not meant to exclude
but to encourge new and wider interest not only in artists and sign
makers but in the world we live in as a whole.
