To apply for our mentorship program, you will need to submit your portfolio as a low res PDF including a maximum of 25 images in total. We recommend submitting one or two projects that you'd like to focus on developing in the mentorship. You will also be asked to write a short paragraph explaining the reasons why you are applying.
Please note that we review application on regular basis.
Once the mentorship is confirmed, you will be in contact with your mentor to discuss your availability and need. When you agree on a date, you will receive a zoom link and a calendar invitation.
We do offer the possibility to pay in different installments. Please note however that we will need to receive the full fee before the start of the mentorship program.
