The EA Creatives and Communicators Slack has merged with the EA Anywhere slack, as part of a big merger of EA slacks. You can join EA Anywhere here: https://join.slack.com/t/eavirtualmeetupgroup/shared_invite/zt-nnm9fyfp-kPS1R98d~SW5soPRcfegoQ
There are channels for creatives there such as #role-creators, #role-designers, #role-writers, #role-marketing and #role-artists.
Also, if you're a creative or communicator within EA, it would be cool if you could fill in this form.
Hello! I'm Isaac, isaac@healthtierhens.com, Head of Logistics for Healthier Hens and currently leading the comms and marketing efforts for the org. I would love to be a part of the channel to gain insights from creatives.
Hello! I'm Jonny, and I've just finished an MSt in Film Aesthetics at Oxford. I'm an editor and writer for a not-for-profit social impact magazine, website and podcast (www.tru.org.uk), and a media consultant / video editor for EA for Christians. I have years of experience in writing, photography, graphic design, video editing and film production, and have recently started looking for ways to combine these skills with EA.
As someone who occasionally has to hire creatives and communicators, I was very happy to see this post. Thanks for coordinating!
Do you have any thoughts on how people like me (doing operations at an EA org) can get in touch with/hire someone in this Slack workspace? This would be both for short-term jobs ("we need a flyer for this event", "we have this Zoom recording that should be edited and uploaded to YouTube", etc.) and long-term collaborations.
Thanks again!
Hi! My nickname is Duke as I would like to remain in some kind of an anonymous way. I have been working in the media industry for years, more into the camera department but also as a video editor. I'm really new in here and I would like to meet more EA-aligned creatives. My email is dukegartzea@gmail.com
Hi, I'm a senior student at a Vietnamese high school. Having read "Doing good better" and "80000 hours", I was astonished by EA's ideas and concepts and realized how ineffective we had been in doing volunteer over three years at school. I wish to learn more to introduce these ideas to other students. Hoping to join the channel.
Hi Matias! Did you send Jeroen_w a private message?
From the post:
How do you get in? Just send me a personal message here on the forum and introduce yourself. I won't be strict at all with accepting people. One sentence is enough. Please don't use the comment section for this as I see the comments less frequently than I see personal messages.
Hello Creatives!
I'm Zach and I'm a writer - both for work and for personal fulfillment (I have a short story newsletter). I am looking to move beyond copywriting and advertising writing career-wise, but still operate in creative ways.
I am working through the introduction to EA group and have completed the 80,000 hours career guide - I'm getting my feet wet in terms of EA and exploring existential risks, but I'm fully invested in the philosophy and want to make an impact with my creative talents.
I'd love to join the conversation in Slack and learn from everyone here - especially in terms of exploring new career opportunities that have a positive impact in the world.
Hey, brilliant idea. I'd love to join the Slack as well. I am an entrepreneur and thinking about trying out to become a content synthesizer and would love to combine this with the most impactful topics. Please add Purpose.foundry@gmail.com Thank you!
Hi! I'm Pratik, a CS graduate student at Georgia Tech. I'm interested in a project to help creators collaborate to raise awareness on global issues and learn from each other through feedbacks and mentorship. Can you please add me to the slack channel. Would really appreciate it. My email: pratikagarwal2203@gmail.com
Hi! I'm Vasudha, a writer and communications professional. I've recently discovered EA, and would love to find work that is more EA-aligned, and learn from like-minded individuals on the Slack Channel :) I'm at vasudhasri@gmail.com. Thanks Jeroen!
Hey, I'm Kirsten, a student in Ateneo de Manila University in the Philippines. I was directed to this post by evelynciara after I shared that I posted a song cover inspired by EA. Would love to join this Slack :) This is my email: kirsten.angeles@obf.ateneo.edu
Hi! Great idea. I'm Megan, I work in communications at Rethink Charity and at ALLFED. I'd love to be in the group, although I don't have a lot of capacity to contribute to it over the next few months. Thanks!
