Graphic Artist
Graphic Artists will be responsible for enhancing the visual feel of the website, including creating new interfaces and adding illustrations to feature articles. These individuals will also be responsible for gathering and creating multimedia for new JYI projects such as the JYI Focus series (e.g.,
http://www.jyi.org/focus/smallpox/).
Job Requirements: The Graphic Artist position, like most JYI staff positions, requires an average commitment of at least 5 hours per week. All communication is via internet or phone, so no geographical constraints exist – Graphic Artists may live anywhere in the world. All JYI staff are expected to check their email daily and respond promptly if necessary.
Preferred Skills or Experience: Graphic Artists do not necessarily have to be web-savvy. Photographers, drawers, or other artistically-inclined people are actively sought. Graphic Artists should have at least some familiarity with photo-editing software, such as Adobe Photoshop, and should feel comfortable creating original artwork (hand-drawn or photographed). The more familiar a Graphic Artist is with photo editing and other graphics software (i.e., 3-D software such as 3-D Studio Max), the better.
