Collective

We decided to join as a collective due to our common ground of being female creatives. We each have individual interests and creative styles however all agree that there is a lack of female creatives in the industry. This could be due to a number of different reasons but is something that we would like to address as a collective. 

Who:

She is_

The name came from wanting to highlight the female focus of the collective. The name of the collective allows for a number of different words to be coupled with it. Such as; creative, beautiful, passionate, unique, etc. Each of the words will be positive and describe the individual being addressed.
Without wanting to be gender specific, we gave the collective a set of morals. We want to ensure that everyone who gets involved with the collective has similar/the same morals rather than the focus being what sex they are.  

What:

Our aim is to set up the collective through social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. This will allow other creatives to follow and be involved with what we are doing. We hope to 'regram' and show off other creatives work. This will help with creative expose as well as having an influential platform to engage with and contact other creatives. We would also like to get proffessionals involved so that there is a building of connections between students and proffessionals.
We also aim to release a zine every month. When a creative asks to be involved in the social media side of the collective, we will also ask if they want to be involved in the monthly zine. From this we hope to be able to gather a number of different creatives and conduct a small interview with them. This will be the main content of the zine as well as visual examples of the individual's work.

Having a digital and print side to the collective will allow us to explore our individual interests as well as work together to learn new skills in each area.
