The Hollywood Reporter: Job platform for creatives backed by Shari Redstone and Michael Eisner launches in beta
UC's DAAP on board to work with new Creatively platform
As many in the entertainment industry are facing layoffs and reduced work hours amid the coronavirus pandemic, a free job platform aimed at creative professionals is launching to offer information on job opportunities, networking and digital portfolios. Creatively is a free site that also features digital portfolios, collaboration and networking option. The new platform is partnering with entertainment companies, brands and schools, including the University of Cincinnati.
Creatively, a platform co-founded by Alice + Olivia CEO Stacey Bendet, Joe Indriolo and Reagan Silber, is targeted at professionals including those in film in video production and animation as well as in advertising, architecture, fashion and photography. It offers users access to new job listings, collaboration tools, an "immersive portfolio" featuring 30-second videos for individuals working in film and TV and a search tool for brands that allows them to target skills or past experience. Creatively also allows creators to direct-message brands, annotate their portfolios and add collaborators to their profiles, among other features.
UC's College of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning is participating in the beta launch. Read more in the Hollywood Reporter.
