If you see the brief label, 'Didn't make it this time', it means you weren't selected for that specific brief. There are lots of reasons why this could be:
There are a high number of applications. Our creator selection process ensures that briefs are shared as fairly as possible, so it's possible that there are creators ahead of you in the queue.
We select new creators on every brief. If this was the first time you've applied for a brief, please keep flagging your interest.
We select the best creators for the brief based on their skillset, and we rely on portfolio links and previous Vidsy work to judge those skills. If a brief is a TVC cutdown, for example, or perhaps animating still assets, we're more likely to select creators who display those skills.
The standard of quality is extremely high. We're primarily interested in your creativity, technical execution, file organisation, ability to follow a brief, and the likelihood of you meeting the deadline. We have access to your previous briefs with Vidsy and will take these into account when making selection.
Your portfolio link could be stronger. It's important that we understand your creative skillset as easily as possible. Here are some top tips for making your portfolio stand out. Please also ensure that your portfolio link is publicly accessible and kept up-to-date.
